Nezha hurried back at full speed, and Nuwa wasn't idle either. Initially intending to go straight home, on a second thought, since she had already come this far, she couldn't return empty-handed. She turned and headed to the Zixiao Palace.
From the outside, the Zixiao Palace looked like an ordinary Dao Palace, not grand at all. Nuwa went up and knocked on the door, which automatically opened a crack.
Nuwa immediately pushed open a small gap and peeked inside. There was no one there.
There was only a simple cloud bed and six cushions.
Nuwa cautiously entered the Zixiao Palace and closed the door.
Then she walked to the spot where she sat the fourth time and respectfully said, "Teacher, I am here."
On top of the cloud bed, Dao Qi began to circulate, and a vague old Daoist figure appeared. Listening to Nuwa, it transitioned from a state of vagueness and slowly became more emotional, taking a while to respond, "You, this girl, come to see this old man on your own?"
