Tong Jie, her face pale and her eyes wide with shock, rushed toward the wreckage, her heart pounding with fear. She had sensed the violent fluctuations in energy, the sudden surge of power that had shaken the very core of the palace.
Amidst the ruins, Yun Lintian, Xi Xurou, and Cai Xieren were safe and sound under Yun Lintian's barrier.
Tong Jie breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this.
"What happened?" She stared at Yun Lintian coldly.
Yun Lintian raised his brow slightly and said nothing. Earlier, he had been about to pry into the creature's soul and accidentally triggered a trap inside. It was clearly meant to prevent anyone from searching the creature's memory.
Yun Lintian could have suppressed the explosion, but he felt it was a waste of energy. He decided to take everyone under cover instead.
