On a barren mountain roughly twenty kilometers southwest of Wimbledon City, seventeen pale blue rays of light suddenly appeared out of thin air, joining together to form a somewhat strange-looking rhombic polyhedron.
After the light flickered twice, a figure appeared in the space inside the polyhedron and slowly descended to the ground.
It was Xu Yi.
Once his feet were firmly on the ground, Xu Yi looked north.
