Don't Move, We're on the Same Side

Deep within the great hall.

The space was quiet and secluded.

A stick of sandalwood incense burned slowly in the censer, constantly giving off a delicate fragrance.

Gu Huaibei, dressed in white as pure as snow, sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion. Her eyes were lowered, her hands forming a seal. She resembled a cold goddess of mercy, surrounded by an aura of bone-chilling cold.
