In all seasons of the year, Xiao Jin particularly favored winter.

Perhaps because winter was the last season, or perhaps because it snowed in winter.

In the last month of the ancient world, there was a day when Xiao Jin suddenly remembered the mountain peak with plum blossoms described by Ming Xun before and wanted to go and see it together with Chu Shao.

Chu Shao asked, "What is the name of that mountain?"

Recalling Ming Xun's description, Xiao Jin said, "Kunlun."

In the present day, Xiao Jin had never been to Kunlun Mountain, so she wasn't sure if it was the same Kunlun as the one mentioned by Ming Xun.

All she knew was that the Kunlun Ming Xun spoke of was located in the northwest of Jiuzhou, a place of towering mountains and distant waters, where immortals rode the wind and walked with swords, their traces hard to find.

Fortunately, Chu Shao was not only the ruler of the world but also a figure like a deity.

"I know where Kunlun is."

After half a month, Xiao Jin saw the true face of Kunlun.

It was rumored that Kunlun Mountain was ten thousand zhang high, the ancestor of all mountains. In the mountain, there lived a fairy, the Queen Mother of the West.

Xiao Jin found herself in the vast expanse of heaven and earth, but she wasn't particularly amazed. She felt that whether it was reality or a dream, every mountain looked similar.

It was just a mountain, after all.

Whether there was the Queen Mother's Yaochi inside, or a divine tree covered with splendid treasures, in the end, it was just a mountain.

What she couldn't let go of was never any particular mountain or body of water.

Kunlun was cold, and Xiao Jin was still nursing injuries and couldn't withstand the cold, so she only wandered around the foot of the mountain with Chu Shao. Unfortunately, they didn't find the courtyard with plum blossoms that Ming Xun had mentioned.

However, they did come across another small building.

The building was made of wood, with cedar trees on both sides, and white snow fell on the needle-shaped leaves. Some branches even had crystal-clear ice columns hanging upside down.

Pushing the wheelchair into the building, Xiao Jin discovered that there were tea sets and arrangements like soft couches inside.

Xiao Jin was somewhat surprised and looked at Chu Shao.

Chu Shao smiled and said, "I used to practice swordsmanship here."

Xiao Jin looked into Chu Shao's eyes and couldn't help but smile.

"So you are the great hero Chu, pleased to meet you, pleased to meet you."

It was no wonder that Chu Shao's martial arts were so exceptional; she must have practiced in previous lifetimes.

Xiao Jin had actually asked Chu Shao about the experiences of those past lives over the years, but Chu Shao always just smiled and said, "Transient as fleeting clouds, not worth mentioning."

Chu Shao avoided discussing it, and Xiao Jin wouldn't force her to answer. She brewed some tea with snow water, took a few sips, and immediately felt the cold in her body diminish.

Feeling revitalized, she had the interest to go and take a look at the courtyard where Chu Shao had once practiced her sword.

As soon as she was pushed in the wheelchair and arrived in the courtyard, Xiao Jin froze.
