Qin Jun directly ignored Liu Ruolai's coquetry and ordered Jin Chanzi and Zhu Bajie to search for the teleportation gate.
Unfortunately, the heavens were not kind. When dawn broke, neither Jin Chanzi nor Zhu Bajie had found it. Jin Chanzi gave a wry smile and said, "The teleportation gates have all been destroyed. It seems this demon had prepared in advance, deliberately preventing the city's people from escaping."
Upon hearing this, Liu Ruolai immediately clapped her hands in delight.
Qin Jun, left with no choice but to drop the matter, then walked into a nearby inn.
The city was now devoid of people; they didn't need to pay for accommodations, taking whatever they pleased.
Meanwhile, hundreds of miles away.
Atop a mountain peak, the Night Emperor lay lazily on his throne, swaying a wine cup in his hand, his gaze overlooking the dimly lit mountains and rivers like a proud monarch alone with the moonlight, inspiring awe.
