Liu Ruyan shook her head, "I'm not sure either. But I guess... the reaction of the Yanluo Queen might have something to do with the ash in the sky."
Cao Tiantian felt a chill run through her body, "Even the Yanluo Queen fell to her knees on the spot, could this be, as described in novels and films, a sign of the impending destruction of the world?"
