Seth suddenly appeared in front of a bamboo house that was a bit far away from the area the twelve palaces were located and where one of the most powerful cultivators of the Glazed Lake lived. Before he could even approach to knock on the door, it opened, revealing the figure of an old woman.
"Sigh... You're here... I was already expecting you would be coming, but for another motive. But seeing how anxious you are, I won't be asking you anything and open the formation for you. However, you have to promise me that you will be coming back."
"I will." Seth firmly said. He didn't plan on losing his life so soon, since he had so many people that he wanted to spend time with yet.
Seth's thoughts were in a complete disarray, so he didn't notice that the Lake Mother most probably knew the contents of his conversation with Palace Master Yushui.
"Good. Now that my granddaughter finally found someone to rely on, it would be a pity if that person suddenly died."
Lan Xue's grandmother used her Mana to activate the formation, making a water vortex form on the floor in front of Seth. His stay in the sect has been too short this time, but fate was something uncontrollable. There wasn't a way for him to predict that the date of the marriage would have abruptly changed like that, but in the end, he felt fortunate that he still had time to get there. Unfortunately, he wouldn't be able to ask for Arwen's help, like he had previously planned back then and would have to face this challenge on his own.
Seth quickly jumped towards the spiraling elemental energy and disappeared.
After his body thoroughly vanished, Lan Xue's figure suddenly left from inside her grandmother's bamboo house, looking absent-minded at the place he was standing some seconds ago.
"Are you sure you don't want to follow him?" The Lake Mother suddenly asked.
"This is something he got to do by himself."
"He could end up dying there."
"He won't." Lan Xue said with certainty.
The Lake Mother felt surprised and chose to stop bothering her.
Woosh!
A vortex of water suddenly appeared in a small river at the borders of the Blue Breeze Country. A rapidly moving figure left from inside it and immediately started to charge towards a certain direction.
Seth had a little bit more of a week to arrive at the correct place, before the marriage ceremony started. He didn't have time to prepare anything or even think about a secondary plan, since his first plan was thoroughly useless now, nor did he know the exact location the ceremony would be happening, just a rough guess. That's why he would have to visit the StormWind Valley first, in order to find his way to the Lion's Pride Golden Palace.
However, even though he knew he was charging head on to the doorsteps of a Higher Ground and that it would be highly improbable that he would be coming back alive, he still continued resolutely moving forward. Actually, he didn't even think twice, before doing that.
For him, Serene was even more important that his safety and he was willing to sacrifice his life for her. Fortunately, Seth still didn't know the real extent of his powers now and the speed he was currently displaying, would be enough for him to arrive there in mere six days, giving him enough time to find the information he so desperately needed.
But just as he had started sprinting, right in front of him, a white mist surged upwards and he was forced to stop.
That mist gave a very ethereal feeling, as if it was announcing the arrival of an elegant goddess. Seth wasn't even able to notice exactly when a woman had appeared inside that white mist. Her white attire gave him the feeling he was witnessing the arrival of a sacred entity, but the aura circling her was not something created, but something natural.
Seth looked at her face, but he wasn't able to see it. There was a white veil covering her features and even his Soul Sense couldn't penetrate it. Her veil seemed to be hiding the mystery of her entire being.
The only thing Seth was able to see were her to beautiful ocean blue eyes. They were very inviting, like they were trying to drown his entire being on them, what made him feel alarmed.
Seth's state of mind wasn't the best one at that moment and he thought she must be somewhat of a threat for him. His body immediately assumed an attacking stance, ready to strike her if she were to make any strange movements.
Impressively, he was not able to remember that he had already seen her once before. At that time, his strength wasn't much in comparison to hers, and even now, he still paled, and that's why she was easily able to control his perception, making him unable to recall seeing her before.
"Who are you?" Seth asked seriously.
"Don't worry, I'm not an enemy. Actually, I came here so I could get a favor from you." Her beautiful voice sounded like heavenly soft bells, announcing the arrival of good news.
"..." Seth wasn't able to fully comprehend her. Actually, he was not comprehending anything. The day had gone from mild to wild really quick.
"Don't worry for now, you will understand it in the future. Take this, you will find really useful information inside it." The goddess, threw him a Glazed Stone.
Seth immediately recognized that type of stone, since it was one of the goods the Glazed Lake produced to sell and acquire Skystones and other resources. That stone could record information and display it later for other people. However, Seth didn't understand what kind of information he needed at that moment.
He looked once more towards that mysterious goddess and decided to give it a try. His soul strength was already splendid and, in an instant, he was able to absorb the information contained inside that stone, while still maintaining his guard up all the time.
However, after he saw what was stored inside, he even forgot about the world outside his mind.
