Chapter 761: Bold Plans

The Heaven's Pass was a newly built structure located on the western border of Jade City; it's towering wall looked like a crouching fierce dog, staring and warning outsiders from approaching.

Looking at the barrier from afar, Shangguan Ru finally understood why she had received little news from the Western Regions.
