Bidding farewell to the High Council, Ming Yue turned and left. The stone doors opened before her, allowing her to leave the High Council's Castle.

"How much time is left?" one of them asked.
"It's difficult to know, no less than ten years no more than a hundred. Or perhaps, it may happen sooner than that", another answered.

"And let it go to waste? Why not? Who else is going to use that doesn't already know of it? If anything, the Immortal of Crows has taken an interest in her."
"True, but it is questionable as to whether she will be able to use this opportunity."
"Questionable or not, we will need all the help possible. Consider her one of our other safeguards. After all, this is the ninth one."
