Chapter 1098 - Black Plume Pavilions Scheme
The Eternal Spirit Mountain towered over the northwestern reaches of the Central Plains, surprisingly close to the Heavenly Spirit Celestial Academy.
Few in the Central Plains knew of the two great forces, the Southern Heavenly Spirit and the Northern Dragon Emperor. But Liu Wuxie was already aware of the deep connection between their academies.

The past few years had worn down the four women. Liu Wuxie was always on the move, seldom staying long. Every reunion was fleeting, every parting abrupt.

"A coffin? Rising by itself?" someone scoffed. "Come on. How big could it possibly be?"
