Caihong had been doing her best to give the sects a chance, but it seemed that the more ground were win, they got lost overnight again. She knew she won't be able to go on  alone anymore because it was getting more difficult. Over these last year and two months, the fierce corpses became stronger and harder to put down for her. It is tiring and plain out frustrating. But first things. She needs to find out what Wen Rouhan really is working with, so she started to make towards the Wen Qishan Sect. Hiding her sword and dizi. She had acquired a long black coat with she started to wear over her robes. Walking through the place, she could feel the resentful energy, and as she drew closer to the nightless city, she felt an enormous amount of it. Hiding herself, she observed her surroundings before she sent two wrath butterflies towards the palace. Watching them flying away, she made her way back towards the marketplace. Walking through the place, she made sure not to attract attention towards herself. Not staying a second longer, she made her towards the outskirts safely. Which in itself was a miracle seeing the place crawls of Wen soldiers and fierce corpses.

Once sure, nobody is following her, she pull out suibian and mounted it. It's time to report to the Unclean Realm, she guess. The wrath butterflies will record the necessary information they will need. She steered her sword in the direction of the Unclean Realm. A small smile grazes her face as she lifts her face upwards and says,

"Cheng-ge, you think I can fool them for long. I think I can, but it will be some much more fun and hilarious if they find out who I really am, and especially Madame Yu. I can't wait to see her reaction". Her eyes gained a hard glint and turned a light shade of red.
"Talking to myself, I see, but it is fine because I know that you always watch me. And I know it is you who had kept me safe all this. Ge if we don't meet again. Just know I appreciate everything you have done for me. And whether or not you want it. You have me for life now. We are family". She said with tenderness and a soft smile.
A certain God had a loving smile on his face. It's not that he is ignoring her. No, he is and always will be with her even though not in person, but I made sure that you will always be safe and protected.
"Ah little ghost, don't worry, we will meet again one day. Your ge is always listening even though he is not commenting. Be safe, my little one". He whispers into the air.

Soon enough, she landed outside the gates off the Unclean Realm. She took off the coat and put it away. She walked up to the two guards who were ready to attack her. Sensing it, she put her hands up in the air and said.
"I need to speak with your sect Leader. It is very important".
"Who are you?". One of the guards asked still on guard as their eyes looked behind her for any movements.
"Ah, I am alone. Do not worry. I am not here to hurt you. My name is Hua Caihong. Tell your sect leader if this will be off help. The demonic cultivator you have hearing about is at his gates. Offering her help". She bowed when she saw the shocked look on their faces.
"You... it's been you. But you are a young girl.. how is it possible". One of the guards asked, still in shock.
"Well, that in itself is a long story. Are you getting your sect leader or are you going to make a lady standing here all day". She asked with a smile.
"I am sorry, young lady. I will go call him. Please wait here". The guard said, and with that, he turned giving his friend a look and disappeared through the gates.

Waiting patiently, Caihong did not feel the need to make small talk. 'Ah, the guard must've run'. She thought as she heard fast approaching footsteps and quite a few at that. She steeled herself as the gate opens, and there stood sect Leader Nie. Master Lan. Lan Xichen. Lan Zhan. Nie Huaisang. Jiang Fengmian. Madame Yu. Jin Zixuan and Jiang Cheng. She bowed her head as a smile appears on her face and greets them.
"This one Hua Caihong and this one greets the sect leaders and sect heirs". She came up from her bow. Her eyes sparkling and a smile on her face looking from one shock face to the next.
"I am sorry but forgive me but are you really the person we have been hearing about". Sect Leader Nie could not help but asked.
Lan Zhan looked at the young lady infront of him and could not help but feel some familiarity as if he should know this person but at the same time does not.
"Well that will be me sect Leader Nie. I do hope that you are not disappointed at me being a woman and all". She said with that same cheeky smile.
"No of course not. Just shocked. But please come. You can continue this conversation in the war room". He said and wave her to follow.
She chuckles and did as asked. Which in turn earns her looks that really some are just plain rude.
