The next day, under bright sunshine, the Holy Maiden and Zaun flew westward toward the Kunlun Mountains.
The direction of Kunlun Mountain is not hard to find. No matter where you are in the world, you can see a huge mountain shadow soaring into the sky in the far west.
As Zuan looked at the mountain shadows, he was secretly shocked. How tall must that mountain range be to be visible from such a distance?
The Kunlun Mountains in this world are clearly not the Kunlun Mountains he knew before he transmigrated. They are not on the same level at all, in terms of height and coverage.
He even suspected that the Kunlun Mountains in this world were connected to the heavens, and that one could travel through the Kunlun Mountains to the legendary Heavenly Court.
Or perhaps the Heavenly Court is located on Mount Kunlun?
As he pondered these thoughts, the saintess beside him would occasionally steal glances at his profile, a blush creeping onto her own cheeks.
That bastard is so strong he's practically inhuman.
At first, she just endured the humiliation and dealt with it, but later, her mind went blank and she completely succumbed to wave after wave of overwhelming waves.
This guy made her drink so many times in one night!
The saintess was both fierce and embarrassed, because she knew that the other party seemed to be able to sense people's anger, so she could only force herself not to get angry.
But now, looking back, she doesn't seem to be able to get angry.
Because the whole process was actually exceptionally sweet...
Moreover, for some reason, she felt that her cultivation level had improved significantly, as if the other party's item was a supreme treasure of nourishment in the world.
So, I'm not losing out at all, and I can even see him more often...
She quickly shook her head to banish the inappropriate thought from her mind.
"What's wrong?" Zu'an asked curiously, noticing her movements.
"It's nothing." The saintess's face flushed slightly.
As the sunlight shone on her profile, casting a soft golden glow on her hair and skin, making her fair face even more beautiful and charming, Zu'an couldn't help but gently hug her: "Ling'er, you are so beautiful."
The saintess felt that she was no longer stiff as before when he held her, as if she had become quite used to his embrace: "Do you look more beautiful now, or before?"
Zuan's smile froze. Why did every woman love to ask such a deadly question?
"I love you no matter what you look like, as long as you're beautiful."
"Tch, not sincere at all." The saintess rolled her eyes, but she didn't press the matter. Instead, she silently warned herself not to ask him such a pointless question.
The two chatted as they flew, not knowing how much time had passed. They deliberately avoided many flying beasts along the way when suddenly a beam of light shot out from the ground.
"Watch out!" Zu'an hurriedly grabbed the saintess and dodged away. Then, several more bursts of energy attacked, each seemingly composed of extremely strange and profound power.
As they dodged, they landed on a mountain, where they saw six strangely dressed old men attacking them.
"Who are you, and why are you attacking us for no reason?" The Holy Maiden's phoenix eyes were cold and fierce. She had already summoned the Supreme Divine Firmament in her hand, and bursts of lightning flickered around her.
These old men were dressed in colorful robes, seemingly woven from the feathers of various birds and the fur of ferocious beasts. They wore strange metal masks and huge necklaces made up of various skulls around their necks, and they did not look like benevolent people at all.
"Huh, he can actually control the power of lightning? Could it be related to that person?" The strangely dressed old men were also somewhat surprised.
"Everyone, don't be impulsive, they're all acquaintances." Zu'an was both surprised and delighted, because he had already recognized these old men as the Ten Witches of Ling Mountain. He had seen them when he came to this secret realm last time, and they had even provided him with assistance.
"You know them?" the saintess asked, somewhat surprised.
"Hey acquaintance, who are you, kid? Who are you to talk to?" Before Zu An could answer, a grumpy old man glared at him, cursing.
Zuan's smile froze as he realized that his last visit, according to the timeline, should have taken place in the future, and they didn't even know him yet.
“You gentlemen are the Ten Witches of Ling Mountain, and we have known each other for a long time.” Zu An had no choice but to change his words.
The old men exchanged glances, their expressions still cold: "You've mistaken us for someone else. We are not the Ten Witches of Mount Ling."
Zu An was taken aback, and after carefully examining everyone, he noticed some differences. He couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly, "They are quite different, but this one should be Wu Peng, this one is Wu Di, and I haven't seen the other four before."
The old men were utterly astonished. The two leaders said in a deep voice, "We are indeed Wu Peng Wu Di, but I don't remember ever seeing you before."
Zuan was momentarily at a loss, unsure how to explain that they had become friends in the future. After a moment's thought, he said, "I once received a dream from an immortal, in which I saw the Ten Witches of Mount Ling..."
So he told them some details about what he would see in Lingshan in the future.
Wu Peng and Wu Di were shocked: "These are indeed genuine; there are such amazing dreams in the world."
With them taking the lead, the hostility of the other witches decreased considerably, and the Holy Maiden also put away the Supreme Divine Firmament Talisman.
Zuan then seized the opportunity to ask, "Why did you all attack us without saying a word just now?"
The six witches looked somewhat embarrassed and did not answer the question. Instead, they asked, "Why are you here?"
Zu An's heart stirred. He thought of the Ten Witches of Ling Mountain, who were all very skilled in medicine and familiar with herbs. Perhaps they knew the whereabouts of the Glass Hairpin Flower: "My younger sister has a special constitution and needs the Glass Hairpin Flower to save her life. We are looking for this flower. I wonder if any of you know where it is?"
