Nightfall descended, and the woods fell into complete silence, devoid of any insect song.
Zhu Xi stood up, holding a lantern in her left hand and clenching a sword in her right, her gaze nervously sweeping the surroundings.

She heard the sound of the wind and instinctively turned her head to look, then sounds of the wind came from another direction before she could turn again, and soon wind noises erupted from all directions.
A gust carrying leaves assaulted her face, causing her eyes to widen in alarm.
Far in the Third Medicine Valley, Gu An watched this scene unfold without intervening.
Zhu Xi was no match for the Loose Immortal Realm, losing consciousness immediately upon the other's attack.
The attacker was a female Heavenly Demon seeking to possess her body, but just as its soul began to infiltrate, the demon sensed a terrifying devouring force.
