Yue Xin's casual remark had struck Yue Lian's heart, as if she'd suddenly thought of something—
Long Guan City.
Su Yingxue and Zi Wei, both dressed in black, climbed over the tall city walls and infiltrated under the cover of night. As Mu Rongche had said, the place was desolate, a veritable purgatory on earth, with broken walls and ruins everywhere. The stench of blood in the air, trapped within the walls, lingered for a long time.
They proceeded cautiously, using only a luminous pearl to light the way.
Because in this city, there were no common folk, no animals, and no... living creatures.
What met Su Yingxue's eyes were either corpses or rotting limbs and pieces of flesh.
Even having been a doctor for so long, she felt nauseated at the sight.
Next to her, Zi Wei reminded her, "Mask."
It was something Su Yingxue had made, and it could be put to good use now.
Remembering, Su Yingxue put hers on and told Zi Wei to wear one too, though he didn't seem to care.
