There was an inconspicuous little town some distance from the Southern Heaven City. It was called Ivory Town. The town had only a few hundred households in it. However, there was a lot of hustle-and-bustle in the teahouse outside the town. This was because a group of white-clothed people were sitting in a circle, and were looking southwards from time to time.
They were many in number. And, all of them were wearing snow-white clothes; without exception. They were bustling-about a little, but their faces were ice-cold. In fact, their ice-cold faces and snow-white clothes were enough to freeze the people around them.
Even the Teahouse's servers didn't dare approach them after they greeted them the first time. They had understood that this group shouldn't disturb them. Moreover, even the air they exhaled seemed to be very cold. So, no one wanted to provoke them.
