Night fell, and moonlight streamed through the window into Xiao Xiao's dwelling.
She sat cross-legged on the bed, eyes closed, focusing her mind, attempting to suppress the faint Demonic Qi within her.
The weak Demonic Qi wandered throughout her body, making her feel uneasy and restless.
Just as she was about to enter deep meditation, she suddenly heard a slight sound of movement outside the door.
Xiao Xiao opened her eyes, alertly tilting her ear to listen. The sound was intermittent, like someone moving softly outside the door.
She rose gently, silently approached the door, with her heart filled with vigilance.
To have a visitor at such an hour was indeed abnormal.
Xiao Xiao slowly extended her hand to grasp the doorknob, her heartbeat accelerating, yet she remained calm.
She took a slight breath and swiftly opened the door.
The sight outside startled her. She saw a shadowy figure flickering in the night, seemingly prepared to leave.
