Feng Tianlan noticed Chen Xinyi's arrival. Her pale skin was as white as snow beneath her feet. Not a hint of blood coloured her waxen cheeks. "Hello, Miss Chen." She greeted lightly.
She did not speak in her hoarse voice; instead, she used a tone not unlike what had been used in the past by Master Shen. It was cold and unyielding.
"Have you received the letter from the United Mercenary Regiment?" Chen Xinyi took a deep breath and asked as she met Feng Tianlan's eyes. She had no way out - all paths to advance or retreat had been severed. She could only bite the bullet and face what was to come.
"Hmm," Feng Tianlan hummed softly, "The people Miss Chen sent this time were all wiped out."
