Inside the Jade Void Palace, the Four Saints all wore grim expressions.
After all, the situation in Yin Shang looked anything but promising.
If they kept waiting, there would be no point in waiting at all. Xiqi would have long since been wiped out by Yin Shang.

For Sages like them, that was barely enough
