Who was this Miss Hong?

Lin Jiufeng didn't know this so-called Miss Hong. In his memory, ever since he transmigrated into this world, he had never interacted with any woman.

The only female he interacted with was a white cat.

Where did this Miss Hong come from?

The white cat was also very curious.

It raised its head and looked around in Lin Jiufeng's arms.

Its curiosity skyrocketed.

The single Lin Jiufeng was actually in a relationship?

Lin Jiufeng looked solemnly at the four people in front of him.

He wanted to know the answer to this question of his.

"Miss Hong is just Miss Hong," the young monk said.

"Miss Hong is a celestial maiden who stands aloof in this world. She's very powerful." When the towering man described Miss Hong, his tanned face actually turned red.

"Miss Hong is an extraordinary woman," Daoist Liu Yun said.

"Miss Hong is my greatest hero." Junior Brother Haiyu added.

The four of them praised this Miss Hong non-stop.

In addition, there was clear genuine admiration and even longing in their eyes.

Countless question marks instantly appeared in Lin Jiufeng's mind.

Just how charming was this Miss Hong?

"So you guys only know that her name is Miss Hong?" Lin Jiufeng asked.

The four nodded.

"You don't know her background?" Lin Jiufeng continued to ask.

The four of them nodded again.

"You guys don't know her identity either?" Lin Jiufeng was speechless.

The four continued to nod.

This time, Lin Jiufeng stopped asking. He was becoming exhausted.

"You don't know anything about her at all, but this so-called Miss Hong was able to command you to come here and investigate the dethroned Crown Prince?" Lin Jiufeng was speechless.

"I owe Miss Hong a favor. Under her guidance, I broke through to the Human God Realm," The young monk said.

"It's the same for us two. With Miss Hong's guidance, we were able to reach the Human God Realm." Daoist Liu Yun added.

"Me too," The towering man mumbled.

Lin Jiufeng's exhaustion vanished in an instant. He looked at the four Human Gods.

'To be able to guide someone into breaking through to the Human God Realm, that person must be very powerful. Furthermore, if it's just a casual pointer and they managed to make a breakthrough into the Human God Realm…'

'I am unable to do that myself.' Lin Jiufeng pondered in his heart.

It would be easy for him to kill a Human God.

But guiding others into making a breakthrough for the Human God Realm was a different story.

Lin Jiufeng couldn't do it.

This Miss Hong must be very powerful.

At the very least, she must be incredibly familiar with the intricacies of the Human God Realm.

"Describe to me your encounter with Miss Hong in detail. We'll start with you." Lin Jiufeng looked at the young monk and permitted him to speak.

"A year ago, the demon's den behind the Buddha Mountain of the Dalin Temple split open. A group of demons was about to wreak havoc and endanger the world, but Miss Hong suddenly appeared and used her powerful strength to suppress the demon's den. She left a seal on the den and gave me pointers for two hours. I broke through to the Human God Realm due to her guidance, and I have never seen Miss Hong since then," The young monk said.

"A demon's den?" Lin Jiufeng raised his brows.

"It's an ancient ruin buried deep in Mount Daqing…"

"The Dalin Temple chose to establish a monastery on Mount Daqing to suppress this demon's den and prevent the demons inside from coming out to harm the world. This is our duty," the young monk said sincerely.

Lin Jiufeng looked at the young monk and asked, "What's your Dharma name?"

"Qingyun," the young monk said.

"Monk Qingyun, since that is a demon's den of your Dalin Temple, how did Miss Hong know about it?" Lin Jiufeng asked.

"I don't know. I also asked Miss Hong about this, but she only smiled and didn't explain." Monk Qingyun shook his head.

"What about you two?" Lin Jiufeng looked at the two Daoist brothers.

"11 months ago, an earthquake occurred deep underground in the Longhu Mountain Range."

"The ground split open and an entrance to an underground abyss appeared."

"Countless demons were about to escape from that underground abyss…"

"At that time, we wanted to suppress them, but we weren't strong enough. At the crucial moment, Miss Hong descended from the sky and helped us eliminate the demons. She also sealed the entrance to the abyss." Daoist Liu Yun explained.

Lin Jiufeng frowned.

Dalin Temple had a demon's den, and Mount Longhu had an underground abyss.

Both of these places had these oddities.

'Could it be that…'

Lin Jiufeng couldn't help but look at the towering man.

"What's about you?" Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.

The young monk and the Daoist priests also looked over, intrigued.

They also wanted to know if this towering man met Miss Hong in a similar situation as them.

"I wasn't in a demon's den nor an underground abyss. But I found a mummy within the boundless desert of the Northern Desert region. Unfortunately, that mummy suddenly woke up and it wanted to kill me to siphon my energy."

"That was when Miss Hong appeared—she suppressed the mummy and saved my life. Then, she also gave me pointers to aid me in my breakthrough into the Human God Realm. This is why I owe her a debt of gratitude."

"She asked me to pay the Imperial Capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty a visit to investigate the situation and whereabouts of the dethroned Crown Prince. This is the reason why I am here." The towering man explained.

'A demon's den, an underground abyss, and a mummy.'

Lin Jiufeng looked at the four people and frowned in thought.

Since that rain fell, Lin Jiufeng knew that the world was going to change. He wasn't that surprised hearing about their experiences.

But the problem was that in their stories, Miss Hong was present.

Moreover, the Dalin Temple was in the Jiangnan area, Mount Longhu was in the Qinling area, and the towering man was from the Northern Desert region.

From the south to the north, from the Jiangnan area to the vast northern desert, the entire trip would take thousands of miles.

But this Miss Hong could actually appear on time in these locations despite their distance from each other? What exactly was her background?

"Senior, we've told you the truth. We came to the Cold Palace this time because we really just wanted to find out more about the dethroned Crown Prince. We have to make a report to Miss Hong to repay the debt of gratitude that we owe her," Monk Qingyun said sincerely.

"Senior, the young monk is right. We have no intention of offending the Yuhua God Dynasty, nor do we have any intention of offending you. We just want to know the current situation of that dethroned Crown Prince." Daoist Liu Yun added.

"Senior, please tell us about the situation of the dethroned Crown Prince of the Cold Palace so that we can immediately leave and report to Miss Hong." The towering man pleaded.

Lin Jiufeng looked at them.

He reached out to caress the white cat.

These four people didn't know that the immortal-like Lin Jiufeng in front of them was that dethroned Crown Prince.

Lin Jiufeng believed their words.

There was no need for them to lie.

His identity as the dethroned Crown Prince had no value at all, so why should they lie?

But the problem was—just what exactly was the intention of this Miss Hong?

After pondering for a moment, Lin Jiufeng said, "The dethroned Crown Prince is in the Cold Palace, but he doesn't want anyone to disturb him. Go back and tell this Miss Hong that the dethroned Crown Prince's life is very simple and peaceful. There is no need to disturb him."

"I'll let you guys go this time, but it might not be the case next time."

Lin Jiufeng let them go in the end.

They were just four Human Gods, he could kill them with a flick of his finger.

It was better if he let them return and report to Miss Hong.

This way, she would not bother about him anymore.

The four Human Gods left the Cold Palace in a hurry, their hearts filled with fear.

Once they were through the door, they glanced at the dilapidated palace behind them.

It was as if they saw a ferocious beast with its mouth wide open, waiting for them to venture beyond the door.

"Let's go back and report to Miss Hong." The four shook their heads and smiled at each other.

It could be considered that fate allowed them to be gathered by Miss Hong together.

The four of them bade each other farewell and left the Imperial Capital under the cover of the night.

In the Cold Palace…

Lin Jiufeng hugged the white cat and remained motionless beneath a cherry tree.
