Blood Crow returned to the city to pass on a message, telling the Bai Family to wait a few days for his return so they could discuss their plans at length.
He continued to train, temporarily putting the Bai Family's matters to the back of his mind.
「Deep in the southern Ten Thousand Mountains. An azure Cold Pool.」
SPLASH!
Tang Wen leaped into the water, sending a massive spray into the air, as if a dynamite fishing team had set off all their charges at once.
The water of the Cold Pool was as piercingly cold as steel needles, stinging his skin, muscles, and bones.
After holding his breath for a while, he finally touched the bottom. He took a step, and the surface of the water exploded with a deafening roar, as if a high-explosive torpedo had detonated underwater!
The meter-thick layer of ice above the Cold Pool shattered, sending a cloud of translucent, crystalline shards flying into the air.
