A Vengeance Unavenged Is Unworthy of a Divine Envoy

"Dong!"

In E0 District, the Ancient Bell atop the tower rang.

The long night was saturated with firelight. All three exits in the city walls had been opened, and huge numbers of civilians began rushing out of the sealed area. Amid the crowd, a small figure struggled to squeeze forward.

Xiao Man carried a basket on her back, looking behind her with every step.

She could not see anything.

After Gu Shen left the alley, he never appeared again... but she knew that everything tonight had been arranged by Gu Shen...

Would they meet again?

Though she had spent less than half a day with Gu Shen, that guy had given her a strange sense of security.

During her days of drifting from place to place.

It was the first time Xiao Man had experienced such a feeling.

The bell tolled. She ran forward with all her strength, silently repeating what Gu Shen had told her... Leave E0 District, run south, keep running south...

She clutched the basket tightly and kept looking back. The crowd in the city had been packed together at first, but once they poured out, they were no longer so dense. She ran into a thicket of bushes. Behind her, dense branches and leaves obscured the moon. She could only vaguely see the walls of E0 District, lit by firelight. The last time she had seen those walls had been two years ago.

"Whoosh!"

A sharp wind-cutting sound swept across the sky. Xiao Man held her breath as she watched a massive crimson bird shadow glide across the distant heavens and land atop E0 District's walls.

The bird was nearly a hundred meters long, almost filling half the Sky Curtain—

Just one glance made her heart feel unbearably oppressed!

She did not dare look any longer
