After being defeated by Ye Fan, the Ice Phoenix Sect Master did not return to his sect but instead led his subordinates to a mountain valley shrouded in thick fog. Upon arriving, he ordered his men to be on full alert.
Then, the Ice Phoenix Sect Master shouted toward the sky, "Come out, Sha Que!"
Instantly, a figure appeared, wrapped in black clothing with a mask covering his face. He exuded a mysterious aura.
The Ice Phoenix Sect Master asked, "Sha Que, have you found my Ice Phoenix Pearl?"
It turned out this was Sha Que, one of the Divine Dragon's high-ranking Elders. Wherever he appeared, he always emanated a deathly aura, which was how he earned his name.
Sha Que replied, "I haven't found it. How could something that has been missing for over a thousand years be found so easily?"
"Did you kill that boy?" Sha Que countered.
The Ice Phoenix Sect Master admitted, "No. He is stronger than me!"
