"There's no time left. We need to leave this place as soon as possible, since Stanley has activated the self-destruction sequence when he left the place!" Xia Fan said.
Everyone was startled. The confused General Dresden asked Xia Fan, "How do you know this?"
Xia Fan sighed. "Through my Scent Ability! The smell of the Demon Palace has changed, and the White Bone Regiment seems to be moving once again, becoming something different from before."
Xia Fan was not lying when he said that. He did indeed smell the changes to the White Bone Regiment, who were trying to trap the humans inside the Demon Palace. Two steps were required: The first was the self-destruction sequence being activated, while the other was to interfere with the humans evacuating from the premises. By keeping the humans in constant battle, they would be able to drag things out and make it impossible to leave.
