At nightfall.
Outside Jiangshui County, at the Huang Residence.
Escorted by Ghosts and Deities, Yibai came to this once-familiar dwelling.
He intended to meet with Huang Xu. The City God had no objections, but since he did not wish to see Huang Xu himself, Yibai came alone.
He entered the Huang Residence, and recognizing his Monster Qi, the Door God did not obstruct him.
Yibai stepped inside; the whole estate was pitch black, save for the flickering candlelight in the front courtyard.
He walked towards the front courtyard.
It wasn't long before he reached it.
Before him, in the side room of the front courtyard, a figure was still awake at night, busy writing something.
Yibai approached silently.
The person seemed to sense something and looked up in Yibai's direction.
"Who's there!"
A sharp rebuke.
The person drew his sword and rose, pushed open the door, and quickly approached.
"How is it that you, Huang Xu, no longer recognize me?"
