Sect Leader Changming talked with Si Lingle for over an hour, then had someone invite Xiangyu True Monarch, as well as two other Golden Core stage elders: Master Huai'an and Master Yumo.
Xiangyu True Monarch arrived first.
Xiangyu True Monarch exuded a coolness reminiscent of a cold pond mist, with an aloofness in her expression that wasn't harsh.
Years of fasting and weathering the elements gave her skin a cold white shade, with slight sun marks on her cheekbones and a shallow scar on her jaw from early battles with demon beasts, which she didn't conceal with a spell.
Her outer robe was made of low-level spiritual grass, in a grayish-blue hue, with a faded dark blue cloth tied askew at the collar, and a gray storage bag hung from her waist.
Beneath, she wore a plain white undergarment with a collar embroidered with a few crooked dust avoidance talismans, drawn when she was first learning talismans, now faded to a light blue over the years.
