***PEAK OF THE KUNLUN MOUNTAINS***
Zhong Li aka King was amazed by the observation of Princess Jing Mi during the two-hour journey earlier. King was sure their destination was now the eastern white snow, where the immortal grass was located.
"Xena! Do you feel something different from both parts of the snow?" ask Princess Jing Mi.
Xena was Princess Jing Mi's right-hand man before becoming Zhong Li's servant so even Xena had been trained by Princess Jing Mi , how to check the state of a place first before entering there.
"Daughter of Jing Mi! Xena felt that the air that covered the western white snow contained poison" Xena said.
"Poisons?" king said spontaneously.
It turns out that King's guess was very precise. The cause of many people who stretched their lives at the top of the Kunlun Mountains because of toxic air. King's decision to bring the poison master Xena with him to the top of the Kunlun Mountains was very true.
"Don't there be wild animals in the east?" said King's heart.
"No problem! We just need to explore the eastern white snow" Princess Jing Mi said.
Princess Jing Mi was already determined to obtain the immortal grass so that Zhong Li could become strong and General Zhong Guo's dream was fulfilled.
"But in the white snow of the west there are snow lotus flowers" Xena said enthusiastically.
King's sharp sense of hearing could feel Princess Jing Mi sighing for a while after hearing Xena's words .
"Snow lotus flower? What efficacy? It seems Princess Jing Mi needs him," King's heart said.
"Leave it! The most important immortal grass now!" princess Jing Mi said firmly.
"Daughter of Jing Mi! We've taken great pains to arrive at the top of the Kunlun Mountains. Xena can handle the poison there. Please allow Xena to go to get the snow lotus flower," Xena said as she knelt before Princess Jing Mi.
"Well! The girls in this world are all stubborn and assertive," King said.
King who did not know anything about the snow lotus flower, stood quietly while giving a blank look in the other direction.
"All right! Successfully or not, we gather here an hour later," Princess Jing Mi said.
"Well, Princess Jing Mi!" xena replied excitedly and immediately stood up.
"Young master Zhong Li ! Xena's going to the western white snow right now" Xena said to King.
"Go! Be careful with the poison there!" said King.

Princess Jing Mi looked at Xena's back until it disappeared from her sight. Xena was one of his loyal right hands so Princess Jing Mi felt calm Zhong Li was being protected by Xena.
Now Princess Jing Mi knew one of the reasons Xena told her about Zhong Li's trip to the Kunlun Mountains because Xena also wanted to get a snow lotus flower for her .
"You know what a snow lotus is?" ask Princess Jing Mi to King.
"Don't know!" answer King honestly.
"The water drops from the snow lotus flower can treat severe wounds in the skin so that it becomes smooth and returns to the original skin" said Princess Jing Mi.
King felt his hand held tightly by Princess Jing Mi all of a sudden. The King's strong instinct hinted that Princess Jing Mi had no ill intentions towards him so King did not retract her hand.
Then King's hand touched something cold. King knew it was an iron mask that covered part of Princess Jing Mi's face.
"Five years! My face has been broken for five years from being injured in the fight," Princess Jing Mi said calmly and released King's hand from her grasp slowly.
Somehow King's hand still held the iron mask on Princess Jing Mi's face.ย King felt sorry for Princess Jing Mi. The young lady before him looked to be around twenty years old, meaning that since the age of fifteen, Princess Jing Mi's face had already been damaged.
For a woman, the face is the most important part of the body. Women in King's native world would definitely be stressed and depressed if they were to experience something like Princess Jing Mi. King is grateful that Princess Jing Mi was born in this strange world so that she can still grow into a confident, strong and independent person.
"Why? You wanna see it?Oho! I forgot! You can't see it. Even so, you can hold it. I allow you," said Princess Jing Mi.
Princess Jing Mi quickly unmasked her face so that King's fingers touched directly to Princess Jing Mi's face.
King was surprised by Princess Jing Mi's bravery of unmasking in front of him. King also pretended to feel Princess Jing Mi's injured face.
The sword incision was quite long from the upper cheek to the lower cheek, it almost hit Princess Jing Mi's right eye. King could confirm that the fight must have been extremely fierce and the opponent Princess Jing Mi faced was a ruthless person.
King who was curious about Princess Jing Mi's real face tried to glance at her blank eyes and King was very surprised when he saw Princess Jing Mi's real face.
"You scared?" asked Princess Jing Mi who saw clearly the shocked expression on King's face .
"Jolyn!" muttered King in a small voice while pulling his hand from Princess Jing Mi's face spontaneously.
King did not answer Princess Jing Mi's question but instead mentioned the name 'Jolyn'.
Jolyn, one of the young girls who was captured by Boris to be sold to Thailand. The young girl who was inside the same container as King. King believes all the hostages including Jolyn died with him from being hit by a bomb set up by Boris at that time.
Princess Jing Mi's face was so similar to Jolyn that it made King suspect whether Jolyn was also reincarnated in this strange world, just like her.
"What did you say?" ask Princess Jing Mi.
"I'm sure Xena can get a snow lotus flower." King tried to divert the conversation.
King's feelings are still uncertain. On the one hand, King did not believe Jolyn was also a reincarnation in this world but on the other hand, the first person King saw while trapped in Zhong Li's body was Princess Jing Mi and Princess Jing Mi had been very kind to Zhong Li and had saved Zhong Li many times.
"No! Princess Jing Mi must not be Jolyn! Their faces are similar! I was just trapped in Zhong Li's body that was a hundred percent different from mine. How could Jolyn be reincarnated into Princess Jing Mi's body with the same face?" said King's heart.
Princess Jing Mi put on her face mask again.
"You wait here! I'll go in first and come back to pick you up" Princess Jing Mi said.
King had not had time to say anything yet, Princess Jing Mi had already disappeared from her sight.
"Fate! The fate! I accept my fate as a blind Zhong Li!" King grumbled in annoyance while crouching on the edge of the Kunlun Mountains while waiting for Princess Jing Mi.
Moments later Princess Jing Mi returned before King and was astonished to see King crouching while propping up her face with both hands.
"Zhong Li's! " shouted Princess Jing Mi.
King was surprised by Princess Jing Mi's shout and immediately stood up. In a hurry to stand up, King's feet slipped and his body fell straight towards the bottom of the cliff.
Both of King's hands immediately pulled out the small knife tucked in the belt and stuck it on the cliff wall.
King's body hung as his hands tightly held the two handles of the small knife stuck together.
King tried to swing his legs to hug the edge of the steep cliff. Suddenly the King felt his waist in a tight hug and instantly his body felt light.
Princess Jing Mi jumped down when she saw King fall down earlier. Princess Jing Mi hugged King's waist and carried him flying back to the top of the Kunlun Mountains.
The two of them did not stop where King had fallen but Princess Jing Mi directly carried King into the white snow in the east.
