Han Yu stilled hearing Lady Rot Rose's words.
"No reports. No traces. Not even their corpses," she said calmly. "It is as if they vanished."
The weight of that statement settled heavily.
Han Yu's mind moved quickly, recalculating the situation.
"So sending me will not change that," he said after a moment. "If they disappeared without a trace, then I am no different. My strength is inferior to theirs."
Lady Rot Rose laughed softly.
It was not mocking.
But it carried a certain amusement.
"You underestimate yourself," she said.
Her eyes held his.
"I know how powerful the Freezing Abyss Glacial Art is. It is not merely a cultivation technique. It is a legacy that allows its user to withstand extremes that others cannot."
Her voice softened slightly.
"Where others are overwhelmed, you will endure."
Han Yu frowned faintly.
