Under Jiang You's promise, Gu Mingshi recounted everything that had happened before without holding anything back, not even a single detail.
It turned out that after Zhu Xie became the final straw that crushed the Gu family,
the entire White Dragon Base collapsed, and the Gu family Elder changed strategies at once, leading the Gu family bloodline in their escape.
If nothing unexpected had happened, they should have been able to escape alive.

Gu Mingshi had originally thought that ending up in Dawn Tower was simply the result of his bad luck, along with the High Priest lying in wait.
But after Jiang You asked this question, he thought it over carefully and found that many things no longer made sense.
Why had Hope Base and Number Nine City suddenly abandoned the Gu family, to whom they had always been loyal?
Why had none of the messages he sent requesting help received a reply?
Why, after White Dragon Base fell, had the Gu family been unable to find even a single way out?
