The moment the bells rang, the drums thundered across the heavens. In the City God's domain, a large group of yin soldiers sprang into action at the sound of the drums and began assembling.

Outside the city, General Silver Lock had already been almost completely eaten by Xijun. His soul had faded until it was as thin as water, and it probably wouldn't be long before she ate him up entirely. I hurriedly stopped Xijun.
