Ma Lu followed the male monk into The Great Tower.
Unlike the enthusiasm he had shown during their previous meeting, this time the monk, apart from answering two of Ma Lu's questions at the beginning, remained silent throughout the journey.
Right after dismounting from his warhorse, Yun Que and the four Hellhounds were taken away from Ma Lu's side, and by the time he reached the elevator hall, there were two seemingly escorting witches waiting for him.
One of them, wearing a red leather coat and small demon horns, looked at him with interest.
There was also a silver-haired girl carrying a two-handed sword, her face stern.
Ma Lu approached the silver-haired girl and, finding her familiar, curiously asked, "What is your relationship with Yun Que?"
"She's my sister," replied the silver-haired girl, her words brief and to the point.
"Oh, I've heard Yun Que mention you. You're Daurian Starling, serving under the Tout Knight, correct?"
