It was only a moment ago the princess was talking about the elder of the church of doom who helped her in finding out the truth.

And suddenly, this person is here at the abandoned church, standing before everyone, and that too, came uninvited. People who think it is just a coincidence were fools.

As the princess confirmed her identity, the latter dismissed her staff and said, "Relax, I came in peace."

She then turned her body towards the King and bowed with her left hand on her chest, "Greetings, Your Majesty. It appears that you are great in health and even had your cultivation restored, not that I expected considering you were sealed by none other than Elder Liao."

She then turned her head, this time, toward Mark with a curious look, "Forgive my rudeness but are you the one who broke the seal?"

Mark furrowed his brows in response, "for someone who appeared out of nowhere, you sure ask a lot of questions without even introducing yourself."

He knows her real name and age but the others don't. Not to mention, for some reason, he felt like she doesn't think much of everyone even though she wasn't even at the doorstep of Exalt realm.

Does she have the confidence or does she have great backing? Mark couldn't help but wonder after reprimanding her.

"Oh, pardon my manners." The lady upon realizing the truth apologized in a calm tone and then, introduced herself, "My name is Gu Ya and I'm an elder of the Church of Doom."

"Okay, if you tell us how did you find us or what are your intentions, it will be nice to proceed with the conversation." As soon as she introduced herself, Mark didn't waste any time getting clarity on the situation.

He was also curious of why someone from the Church of Doom is helping out them in the first place. And it appeared as if she was doing this in secret, keeping it from her organization. It is indeed suspicious.

Maybe, she had expected the question. Gu Ya answered him without taking her time to think, "I'm a Seer. I had prophesized where you are going to end up. As for my intentions, I'm here to see with my own eyes whether the destined one in the prophecy is here or not. If you are the one, then, I want to talk to you in private. So, I ask you again. Are you the one who unsealed the King?"

Mark didn't know what this 39-yr-old woman who looked like she is in her 70s wanted with him but at the very least, he can hear what she has to say and decide what he wants to do.

He nodded in confirmation and also revealed the truth, "Since I cannot repel it using force, I had to use a Purification Stone on the King."

"Purification Stone? Never heard of such stone that can remove the seals and restore cultivation. Is it an otherworldly item?" The Seer mumbled as she fell into thoughts for a while. After a brief silence, she said to him, "Then, can you please use an ability of your bloodline?"

"Bloodline? For your confirmation?" Mark was no fool. It was clear to him why she was making such a request but it is more important for him is whether he could gain anything or not. Something told him that this thing might lead to another quest.

But at the same time, there was also a worry in his head. If the woman can ascertain his bloodline just by his skill, then, wouldn't his connection to Lan Clan be revealed?

"Yes, before I confirm that you are the one from the prophecy, I cannot divulge the details." As Gu Ya was taking this matter very seriously, Mark also spoke his intentions, "Not here, Miss Gu. I don't want people to get caught up in my demonstration and neither do I trust a stranger that I can follow to some unknown place. So, keeping this in mind, suggest a solution."

Mark indirectly told her that he cannot demonstrate his powers in front of others. Weak and old the King might be, but Shen Niu is still the ruler of the kingdom and he cannot be kicked out by anyone.

As he wondered what she will reply with, Gu Ya resummoned her staff, "I understand. I will set up a spatial field around us."

The blue orb glowed once again, forming a pitch-black-colored barrier around them. From the outside, the barrier only looked like it enveloped both of them but inside the barrier, Mark saw that the area inside the barrier was expanded by a hundred times. He couldn't help but remember his store and then wondered whether he could also do it once he awakened the second spirit path.

"So, are you ready?" Gu Ya asked him.

Mark came out of his senses and nodded. "Absolute Freezing, activate."

In an instant, everything inside the barrier was frozen. Even the mage wasn't spared. The pitch-black dome-shaped barrier suddenly turned into an ice dome, bewildering the spectators.

The King got up in shock as some past memories hit him. "This ice, it is different from other ice magic. The temperature in the surroundings doesn't have any impact on this ice. No doubt about it. It is the same as Lan Gengxin's bloodline ability. And there's his resemblance to him. Is he related to him?"

Mark had made a blunder this time. He overestimated the spatial barrier and thought that the outsiders wouldn't have any idea about his ability. Of course, it isn't that he planned to keep his ice ability any secret but he doesn't want those abilities to look like bloodline skills.

Upon considering the intelligence of Shen Ling and Shen Niu's acquaintanceship with Lan Gengxin, Mark doesn't want them to witness his ice skills in person but Gu Ya's weak crowd control ability now had defeated his purpose.

"I guess I fucked up…" Mark realized the blunder he had made. So, instead of making his way out of the place, he just stayed on the spot in silence, waiting for the time to run out.

About 80 seconds later, the ice disappeared and Gu Ya was freed. Surprisingly, the spatial field reappeared. It looks as if nothing happened two minutes ago. Originally, it was supposed to last for 120 seconds but her higher cultivation and the spatial field's higher power reduced the time.

Upon being freed, Gu Ya stepped back in surprise with a little mixture of fear. She said, "I have only read about this ability in the records but it's the first time I experienced it in person." Earlier, when trapped under ice, she tried her best to get free. Her ether energy couldn't break it.

For the past 80 seconds, she felt helpless and it is a scary experience for her. Adding on top of that, the temperature was below -100 degrees. If not for the fact that she protected her body from it, Gu Ya felt like her aged physical body wouldn't have lasted against the freezing. As a result, she would have probably died.

After forcing herself to calm down, Gu Ya nodded, "The bloodline of Ancient divine beast, Blizzard Pegasus. You are indeed the person I was looking for, Mister… I'm sorry but I forgot to ask your name, earlier."

"Lu Zhen," informed Mark before asking about her objective.

Gu Ya then answered, "Before I tell you my objective, let me tell you a small story of a late leader of the Lan sect, Lan Gengxin, and his monster pet, an ancient beast named Zheng."
