Chang Le Alley was still enveloped in silence, the streets nearly empty. The only living beings were the wandering ghosts that seemed to render this market square akin to a ghostly corner.
Shen Luo didn't know about the peculiarity within the overcast sky, so he didn't rashly resort to sword flight. Instead, he cautiously navigated through the streets, trying as much as possible to avoid the Yin Sha ghosts. He would only take risks to attack when it was unavoidable, aiming for a sure-kill each time to reduce the ruckus as much as possible.
Thus, he intermittently made progress. Besides encountering numerous ghosts, he also bumped into a few human cultivators. However, as the line between friend and foe was blurred, Shen Luo decided against provocation and simply tucked away all the information gleaned from these encounters into his mind.
