The woman looked like she was carrying the wind on her person as walked carrying the ages and mysteries of the world.

Her light pink hair swayed, and her voluptuous body danced in tune. The pink robe that very complemented her countenance made her look like a goddess that could make everyone fall to their knees.

Not to mention, this woman was very strong.

Jin Rou could feel the raging dao inside the woman's body, as if it was waiting for a signal and would be ready to annihilate anyone who would dare to threaten her.

In Jin Rou's perspective, this woman could easily get into the top three of all the women he had seen and deemed as beautiful.

"This is such a lonely place." The woman's voice, that sounded like an angel and a goddess at the same time, softly reverberated in the entire space.

She looked left and right with a graceful bearing, pausing for a moment, before adding, "I didn't expect that I will meet someone here."

The woman chuckled, and anyone who would see this spectacle would immediately fall in love with her. This was probably of her innate charm that she possessed since birth.

"Likewise. I didn't expect to run to someone of your caliber here." Jin Rou returned the gesture and said.

"Someone of my caliber? Daoist Friend, you're complimenting me too much." The woman shook her head once again, "Yours is unfathomable, compared to mine, I am not a match against you."

"You can see through me?" Jin Rou was a bit surprised.

"A bit." The woman smiled, and the ages shone brightly, "I cannot see through the whole thick fog but I can feel the immense power and the barrier, so I can deduct this."

When someone wanted to see through a person's power, they needed to bypass the thing called 'thick fog' that covered the entire power of the target. It was only applicable when the target was stronger than the user. And more often than not, it was very hard to do so.

Especially Jin Rou's case. Not just anyone could see through him. Even a 12 laws he fought against couldn't.

But this woman, could see through him even just a bit and able to deduct to adjust her thoughts and plans.

"You are a very powerful progenitor, capable of contending against 12 laws already. It's not that surprising for you to see through me." Jin Rou smiled.

"I just got lucky, Daoist Friend." The woman act very reserved and feminine that it was very attracting even for Jin Rou. If Jin Rou was just an ordinary person, he might have crawled towards her to beg for her hand.

"What are you doing here?" Jin Rou changed the topic and asked the main question, "With your power, unless you want to destroy this place, there is no reason for you to go here."

This plateau was truly vast, yet it had no treasures and whatnot. So people had no reason to go here. Not to mention that, the oxygen was very thin here. Unless one was on the same level as these two, it would be hard to survive here even for a few minutes.

"My reason, hmm?" The woman contemplated for a moment before giving an answer, "Perhaps, we have the same reason of being here."

Then, she shot a glance that filled with dao essences that could capture the sky. Jin Rou immediately blocked it and smiled, "Indeed. Perhaps, that's the case."

That small attack held no malice against him. Thus, Jin Rou laughed it out as if it was nothing.

Silence filled the entire place. The two just stared with each other until the sky turned dark. It was like they couldn't feel the change in their surroundings as millions of dao waves circulate above the sky.

"But I wonder," Finally, the woman broke the silence and asked, "Why would a man of your level seek for them?"

"A personal business." Jin Rou answered, "And I guess I have the right to keep it hidden."

"Of course, please feel free, Daoist Friend." The woman smiled and looked at the dark sky, "It's night, the sky is black and the billions of stars spark the night, giving light."

"When there is light, there is also dark. The two are needed to maintain a balance." Jin Rou said.

"Indeed. However, when one overtakes another, that's a different case." The woman said, "But this situation is only applicable when the darkness is the culprit. If it is the other way around, I know everyone will like that."

In this world, a balance of all things was required in order to maintain everything. However, most of the people love the light and only a few would seek the darkness. After all, everyone wanted salivation and haven. Thus, even light overtook the darkness for a piece, that's a good news for them and they would gladly accept that fact.

"Well, when there is light, peace is there." Jin Rou said, "Everyone seek for peace, just different versions and methods."

"That's true. But it's difficult to attain the peace we want." The woman sighed, "This world is filled with wars and battles for blood. Feuds are endless because greed and hatred are still there. All of this is because there is power."

"…" Jin Rou didn't know what to say. The other party was right. Everything here was about the dao, the power and authority that it carried.

The woman paused before continuing, "I wonder if this world has no dao or power, would it attain the true peace everyone seeks for?"

It was unquestionable that those who seek the light wanted peace, a peace they could rest themselves while they age and die. This was true especially for the case of those ancient beings. They wanted to depart this world with a peaceful appearance.

"Peace can be attained because there is power." Jin Rou finally spoke, "Power is necessary to seek for true peace."

"You mean, authority?" The woman glanced at Jin Rou and laughed. She couldn't help but look back at the dark sky with an expression one couldn't describe.
