The White-Clad Youth

Returning to Chu Nuan City with Dou Hongyi, Fang Yue looked around and saw that many houses had already been rebuilt here and there.

They were all rather crude wooden houses, but at least people had begun rebuilding their homes amid the ruins.

A layer of black, dome-shaped barrier surrounded the house, sealing it off from the outside. No one could see inside with the naked eye. It seemed to be some kind of isolating formation.
