"You're not Son of Heaven, Xia."
"Who exactly are you?!"
Emperor's Daughter Zhao, who had remained vigilant and silent all along, finally spoke. She looked at Lin Qi, unable to hide her shock.
"He is Son of Heaven, Xia."
"You're already a dying woman. Don't ask what you shouldn't."
Before Lin Qi could answer, the Puppet realized that its conversation with Lin Qi had already leaked information, and immediately spoke up.
Clearly, even though Emperor's Daughter Zhao was already at death's door, the Puppet still had no intention of letting her know Lin Qi's identity.
Hearing this, Emperor's Daughter Zhao gave Lin Qi a deep look, then finally turned her gaze to the Puppet.
She seemed to understand something.
She was somewhat pleasantly surprised, somewhat relieved, and finally it all settled into calm. She spoke with ease.
"Fine, I won't ask."
"Let's go to Tai'an Mountain."
"I like that place."
Lin Qi frowned. Rather than going to some Tai'an Mountain, he still wanted to try whether he could actually save Emperor's Daughter Zhao.
He knew the bigger picture had to come first.
But to him, rather than caring about the bigger picture of this era…
He wanted to know even more whether the so-called bigger picture included the existence of people like Emperor's Daughter Zhao.
If it didn't, then…
However, before Lin Qi could refuse, the Puppet had already scooped Emperor's Daughter Zhao into its arms.
Emperor's Daughter Zhao did not resist. After a moment's hesitation, she reached out and wrapped her arms around the Puppet's neck, then just stared blankly at the Puppet's face, which by no measure could be called handsome.
The Puppet did not speak either. Like a true puppet, it did not even look at Emperor's Daughter Zhao. It simply rose into the air, heading toward Tai'an Mountain.
That place had once been their homeland.
…
Tai'an Mountain.
The Puppet stood silently before the cliff beneath the setting sun.
The cliff face was incredibly smooth, as if it had been cleaved by an axe.
Emperor's Daughter Zhao sat alone before the cliff, gazing downward in a daze.
The area below the cliff seemed to have once experienced a shocking landslide.
Mud and stone buried the entire cliff base, making it impossible to see what it had originally looked like.
Only some tenacious little grasses had sprouted new shoots from the broken mud and stone, bringing a touch of green.
Lin Qi keenly grasped that there was something unusual about this cliff.
He instinctively looked at the Puppet.
The Puppet did not speak, only staring down at the cliff base with vacant eyes.
"This place was originally our home."
