The two exchanged a glance and quickly left the cave.
The last place where Dan Dan disappeared was on Kunlun Snow Mountain. At present, they could only hold onto the slim hope of going there to look for it again.
However, Yaohua wasn't sure whether they could find it or not. But privately, she hoped for a miracle and that they could find Dan Dan. If they still couldn't, she didn't know what would happen to her.
"Let's go." Chongming summoned his magic sword and intended to carry Yaohua on it to fly to Kunlun Snow Mountain.
The sword was enlarged to a size large enough to accommodate two people. Yaohua nodded and was about to move when suddenly a strange voice came from behind: "You are Yaohua and Chongming, the parents of that little phoenix?"
Hearing this abruptly, Yaohua widened her eyes. After chewing over the meaning of the words, she suddenly turned around.
A person wrapped up tightly from head to toe, making it impossible to see their true appearance, was standing on the open ground several zhang away.
Yaohua sized this person up. Even though she couldn't see their face, the aura on this person was too strange. Yaohua was sure she didn't know this person.
But the words of this stranger were enough to arouse her spirit.
"You've seen Dan Dan. You know where Dan Dan is, don't you?!" Yaohua asked excitedly.
The stranger neither nodded nor shook their head. They just said, "If you're looking for that little phoenix, go and take a look at Goddess Mountain in the southwest."
After saying this, without caring about Yaohua and Chongming's reactions, the person flashed and disappeared directly.
Yaohua didn't even have time to ask a few more questions.
Looking at the now empty space in front of her, she blinked her eyes. She turned to Chongming, who was slightly frowning, and said, "Shall we go and take a look?"
The answer was definite. Even if Chongming didn't go, she intended to go by herself.
The two immediately changed their plan and headed for Goddess Mountain, which was far away in the southwest.
Yaohua had heard of this place before, but in all her years, she had never set foot there. She had even almost forgotten about this place if it hadn't been mentioned by that stranger just now.
Goddess Mountain was a place that was very unfamiliar to all beings in the Three Realms.
When the two arrived at Goddess Mountain, it was noon, the time of the day when the sun was at its fiercest.
However, all over the mountain, the flowers, plants, and trees were growing wildly, just like a remote and uninhabited mountain forest.
Yaohua stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up. Through the lush greenery, she could vaguely see the peak of Goddess Mountain.
For some reason, as soon as she came here, she had a bad premonition in her heart.
"Not feeling well?" As perceptive as Chongming was, he still noticed this subtle change in her mood.
She shook her head upon hearing this and said, "No. Let's look for Dan Dan first."
But would Dan Dan really be in this place? Why did that stranger just now ask them to come to this place?
The two walked side by side deeper into the mountain. Before long, the narrow view became broad, and an open space without any trees blocking the way appeared in front of them.
And there - there was a person in purple clothes standing.
Before Yaohua could speak to ask, the person in purple clothes seemed to have already sensed their presence and slowly turned around.
"You've finally come," said the person in purple clothes.
Yaohua frowned upon hearing this. The words of the person in purple clothes made her feel very uncomfortable. She didn't know this person at all, but the other person spoke as if they were very familiar with them.
Chongming looked serious. Without saying much, he got straight to the point and said, "Did you ask us to come here? Who are you?"
The person in purple clothes let out a chuckle. "Who I am is not important. You don't need to know who I am. What's important is - this."
Suddenly, there was an envelope in the person in purple clothes' hand. They held it between their fingertips and gently waved it.
Yaohua stared at it for a moment. She didn't reach out to take it, but instead frowned and seriously asked, "You know where our child is?"
"Want to know?" The person in purple clothes let out another chuckle but didn't directly answer Yaohua's question. Instead, they said ambiguously, "If you want to find your son, go and find the person on the letter."
This time, Yaohua frowned tightly. The two people she had met today were both so strange. It was hard for her not to think too much.
Moreover, what kind of letter was this that the person in purple clothes gave them that they had to travel all the way here to get it?
"If there's something we'd better..." A white light flashed in front of her eyes. Yaohua's heart tightened, and she instinctively dodged.
However, what was rushing towards them wasn't danger. The letter in the person in purple clothes' hand was directly thrown into Chongming's hand.
Yaohua didn't even have time to finish her words when the person in purple clothes quickly disappeared.
What on earth were they up to? The doubts in her heart were growing. And now that they still hadn't found Dan Dan, they didn't have time for other things.
Just thinking about Dan Dan made her feel sad. She regretted it deeply. If she had known that Dan Dan would disappear, she would have never left Dan Dan's side for a moment!
But now wasn't the time to regret.
"Chongming -" Yaohua called out. She turned her head and saw Chongming standing there, staring blankly at the envelope in his hand.
She immediately fell silent. At this moment, the doubts in her heart reached their peak.
However, the most urgent thing at the moment was to find Dan Dan. So she swallowed back all her doubts and pretended not to notice Chongming's state. She asked, "What's wrong with you?"
This time, Chongming quickly came to his senses. He held the envelope and immediately glanced at her. There was no change in his expressionless face.
If she wasn't sure that she hadn't seen wrong just now, she would probably start to doubt if she was seeing things. Why would Chongming show such a blank - faced reaction?
However, once the seed of doubt was planted in her heart, it would quickly take root and sprout.
Chongming's calm appearance at this moment made Yaohua even more certain that there must be something wrong with that blank - faced expression he had just shown.
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but glance at the envelope in Chongming's hand.
Could it be that Chongming had some connection with the person who wrote this letter?
This thought only flashed through her mind for a moment and was then immediately cut off. She scolded herself in her heart. They still hadn't found Dan Dan. How could she think about other things!
Forcing all the chaotic thoughts out of her mind, she pointed at the letter and said, "Let's see what's written inside. It's most important to find Dan Dan first."
Chongming nodded. He moved his hands as if he was going to open the envelope, but for some reason, he stopped just as he was about to tear it open.
Chongming paused for a moment and then handed the envelope to her, saying indifferently, "You open it."
Yaohua nodded. Without thinking much, she directly reached out and took it.
The envelope was an ordinary yellowish - brown one. Yaohua opened the seal. Inside were a wisp of black hair and a piece of paper.
She unfolded the paper, but there was nothing written on it.
"It's strange. What on earth do they want to do by giving us a blank piece of paper?" she couldn't help but complain.
"Let me have a look." Chongming reached out and took it. He stared intently, and slowly, three words emerged on the blank paper - "Come and see me."
