"Just look at yourself," Ji Ning grinned. "Trapped in a cage and unable to escape." As he spoke he carefully inspected the flaming cage, hoping to find a way to break it open.
"And just what was I supposed to do? I had nowhere to go and nowhere to run. I had no choice but to hide inside here!" Ninedust laughed helplessly. "I might be trapped, but at least I avoided death. It's kind of funny, actually… I didn't die, but Archon Silksnow did! Darknorth, you are simply incredible. You actually forced him into committing suicide!"
Ninedust's avatar was at Vastheaven Palace. Thus, as soon as Archon Silksnow had died Ninedust's avatar had asked Ning's avatar what had happened, resulting in him gaining a general idea of what had happened.
Ning chuckled. "Don't praise me. It was mainly thanks to my golem over here."
