"It's... it's not him..." Sang Luo shook her head, choking on a sob. "He was killed..."
Crown Prince Yun Hua was also stunned. He had no idea what had happened during the hour they were separated.
Just a moment ago, he hadn't been able to find Sang Luo or the man in red at the Prefect's Mansion, so he had taken his men out to search. He was halfway through his search when he heard an explosion in this area and rushed over with his retinue. The sight that greeted him was a tragic scene of utter ruin. The area had obviously suffered immense destruction, but when he questioned the surviving bystanders, none of them could tell him anything coherent.
Then, he caught a glimpse of Sang Luo in the ruins. His heart clenched, and he rushed over. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that, aside from being covered in soot and having a few scrapes, she had no life-threatening injuries. 'So her old flame... died in the attack?'
