After much debate, Huo Tian finally glared impatiently at Zhou Yuhe, and the elder eventually fell silent, agreeing to let Zhou Heng enter the Flame Territory alone.
—Actually, his opposition would have been futile anyway; he didn't possess a Heavenly Scripture!
"Go ahead!" Huo Tian waved her hand. She always refrained from showing her emotions, so Zhou Heng couldn't tell what she felt at that moment—whether she too was filled with reluctance.
"Husband!"
"Zhou Heng!"
"Zhou!"
The women crowded around him; Zhou Heng's journey might take who knows how long—perhaps another year or two of separation.
"If I do not return after a long time, please bring my parents to the Immortal Realm!" Zhou Heng instructed. The next opening of the Realm Gate near North Wu City wasn't too far off, and in case he was delayed too long in the Flame Territory, he didn't want to wait additional years or decades for other Immortal Cities' Realm Gates to open.
