After the Night Raid

The city defense soldiers who arrived last saw the area encircled by a hundred soldiers. Ice Mist swirled there, and lifelike ice sculptures stood displayed before their eyes.

Luo Yunji was still walking forward slowly, and the chill radiating from his cold eyes made the city defense soldiers lower their heads one after another.

Feeling the extremely low temperature here, the Imperial City soldiers shivered nonstop, utterly lacking the courage of the soldiers from Two Mountains.

Seeing that Luo Yunji was still walking toward them, the soldiers had no idea what he intended to do. Looking at the black-clad men frozen behind him, their hearts filled with boundless panic and dread.

They wanted to run, only to discover that their legs and feet no longer obeyed them at all. They had lost all feeling.

Luo Yunji passed by these terrified soldiers, crossed the Prince's Mansion guards who had come after them, and did not look at the Quadruplets, who were holding the box containing the White Elixir.

Everyone watched his advance step by step in confusion. Although nothing unusual happened wherever Luo Yunji walked, seeing that his goal was clear, none of them dared speak up, and no one dared go forward to disturb Luo Yunji at this moment.

"..." Luo Yunji stopped before a shop by the street and made no further move.

Time slipped by second by second. Everyone present held their breath, watching Luo Yunji, not knowing what exactly he was going to do—or what he wanted to do.

People were still arriving here one after another.

Even the Imperial Palace's imperial guards had rushed over by now.

Just when everyone thought the matter was already over, Luo Yunji turned his head to look at the shop beside him.

No one saw him make any move, yet
