Jin Rou accepted the piece of paper. He knew what was this and couldn't help but smile, "You even searched for this?"

"I remembered that you have asked this during your first visit in our sect. You even threatened our progenitor that you will destroy Winter if we didn't hand it over to you." Snowinter laughed as she remembered that day.

Han Li was always overbearing as ever. And he pushed his weight during his first visit in Winter Sect. He even threatened to raze the sect into the ground should they not comply of what he demanded.

However, after finding out that the piece of paper was really missing, Han Li was a bit embarrassed and offered compensations for his actions.

Jin Rou knew this as he recalled Han Li's memories. It was during the First Challenge. He was a hot headed youth thus he didn't know any better by that time. Moreover, Snowinter was just a little girl.

"This piece of paper is no longer useful to me, but I'll take it anyway." Jin Rou laughed. He was feeling a second hand embarrassment when thinking about how Han Li acted in the past. He was childish like he was in their universe.

"You won't know if you will be needing it or not, so just take it." Snowinter said, "That is my final gift for you, Young Noble."

"Thank you." Jin Rou expressed his heartfelt gratitude. He might not be Han Li, but he's bearing Han Li's personality, memories, emotions, and body.

Jin Rou called out Sylvianna from the Winter Sect. It was not that far so he could pull her out using space only to find out that she was stuffing her little mouth with many types of bread.

"You seem to be welcomed." Jin Rou scoffed, "It's time to go."

Snowinter observed Sylvianna with a smile, "So this is the heir of Blackmauve."

"Yes. She's a bit weird, so pardon her." Jin Rou responded.

"You're the weird here! Your family's weird!" Sylvianna threw tantrums after being called weird. Bits of bread were even flying everywhere as she declared that she wasn't a bit weird.

After calming Sylvianna down, Jin Rou looked at Snowinter and said, "We will be going now. I don't have anything to give you as you are already powerful enough to kill era emperors from Godlist, but you can take this."

Jin Rou handed over a stone. It was colored red, "You might not know what is it, but time will tell you."

Snowinter knew that anything Han Li gave was never ordinary. She accepted it and said, "Thank you, Young Noble. Please have a safe trip. The Winter Worst Sea is currently unstable because of the monster trying to get out."

Jin Rou nodded and the duo disappeared.

Snowinter looked at where Han Li sat down and thousands of emotions surfaced all at once, "Goodbye, Love."

No one could hear her words but her. Her voice was soft and gentle, as she whispered those words to the unknown wind. She never hoped that her feelings would be returned, she just wanted him to be safe at all times.

Winter Sectmaster saw Snowinter in this state and shook her head. She didn't dare to disturb her alone time and just flew back to the sect.

Jin Rou and Sylvianna were traveling at high speed thus they immediately reached the Winter Worst Sea.

It was called this way because the sea was really the worst of all. Winter Sect decided to manage this piece of land as no one wanted to get their hands on it. After all, it was the place that terrifying monster was sealed by the Winter Progenitor.

The color of the sea here was white and the temperature was freezing cold despite the far distance from Winter Sect. No one dared to trespass here afraid that they might die.

After all, two era emperors died here while venturing in the Winter Worst Sea.

"That monster is within the deepest part of the sea." Jin Rou said. He was looking at the unstable current of the sea. Just like Snowinter said, the sea was not calm. That thing below was trying to do something.

"Should we go down?" Sylvianna asked. She wouldn't mind diving to the deepest part. She was even prepared for an all out fight with that monster.

The monster had some knowledge regarding their family. As a matter of fact, it was even involved during the hunt for the Blackmauve.

"No need. When it senses you, it will go up in its own accord." Jin Rou smirked, "Just watch. It cannot resist the temptation of a Blackmauve just like those hungry bastards lurking in the shadows."

"Splash!" After he said that, the sea became more unstable as waves became bigger and bigger. Furthermore, a whirlpool was being created in the middle of nowhere near Jin Rou and Sylvianna.

"Ahh! Ahh! Hahaha!" A devilish laughter sounded the entire sea. It gave chills down to the spine as it slowly appeared from the whirlpool, "I'm a bit mad that the illegitimate Blackmauve managed to escape from me. But who would have thought that the true Blackmauve will be hopping on my doors? It's my luck today, eh?"

Sylvianna looked at the monster. It had the body of a horse and its head was a mixture of a human and a beast. It wasn't from the centaur race, but it might be near from that. Chains were binded by its feet and arms.

It was truly sealed here in the worst sea. However, it already took over the sea and could even manipulate it to his whim.

"You're going to answer my questions, Monster." Sylvianna said. Her demeanor was an arrogant princess of the imperial family.

"Oh? Make me then, Little Blackmauve." The monster provoked Sylvianna. It couldn't even see Jin Rou as its entire focus was on her, "If you have the capability, that is."

Sylvianna took out her black sword. It was the first time she's going to use this. After all, the last time she used this was to slay someone a very long time ago.
