"...Brother, there is no Lu family in Jiezhou City!"
"And there's certainly no so-called 'Miss Lu!'"
In the midst of howling winds and pouring rain within Jiezhou City, siblings Li Muyang and his sister stood atop a tavern, looking down upon the storm-lashed city.
It was a city neither particularly large nor small, yet it was more imposing than the home city of Jiuyuan where Li Muyang and his sister came from.
Had it not been for the fierce storm that had swept in, the streets below would have been bustling and lively.
But now the townspeople had all taken refuge within their courtyards, avoiding the wind and rain pounding outside.
The empty streets in the storm appeared somber and desolate.
The news brought back by Yu Chan added a hint of eeriness to the air.
Li Muyang's brow furrowed slightly.
"...No Lu family?!"
He twirled the ring on his finger, repeating his sister's words in mutter, a flicker of surprise in his eyes.
