Moments ago, the Gate Elder and the Puppet Elder of the Zhen Clan were just about to go and investigate one of their stranger prisoners, a demonic skeletal woman that the Puppet Elder was convinced was not actually a living person, but an aether puppet under the command of the Fourth Young Master of the Zhen Clan. 

However, before they had a chance to go and test whether or not their suspicions were correct, the chamber in which the strange prisoner was held in had blown open, but not because of the prisoner herself.
