Amidst the silence of the night, a shadow flickered in the distance as if it was a part of the darkness itself.
Only someone who possessed an extraordinary affinity with the dark element could achieve such a feat.
The shadow effortlessly flickered from one building to another, quickly approaching the zither palace in the south.
It even reached the palace's main gates, but right at this moment, the shadow stopped.
It paused for a minute as if the person was pondering something.
Soon, the pair of thin lips curved upwards and a cold chuckle sounded, echoing in the silence of the night.
Both Tang Zuelo and Tang Xi woke up from their deep slumber in alarm. Several guards as well quickly rushed over to the main gate.
"Who is there?"
"Who is there?"
"What happened?"
Everyone including Tang Zuelo and Tang Xi was perplexed.
