By the time Master Miaoyin sensed something was amiss, the sun had already set, and a star-filled sky hung above her.
"...Fellow Daoist Suo Huan?"
Miaoyin looked back at Suo Huan, only to find he had already started setting up an Array. Line after line of Array markings appeared as he worked.
'What is he doing?'
Before Master Miaoyin could react, a signal flare soared into the distant sky, bursting into a brilliant firework display accompanied by shouts.
"We found them!"
"We found them!"
The overlapping shouts crashed in like an invisible, overwhelming tidal wave, completely undisguised. At the same moment, the starry sky above burst into brilliant light.
The next moment, Master Miaoyin felt the ground begin to tremble. She subconsciously tried to summon her Flying Light to escape, but just then, pillars of light—auras of blood and Qi—shot up all around her, linking with the starry sky. An invisible pressure instantly descended, forcibly snuffing out her Flying Light!
