Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When they came to the Haitian Market, they also noticed a small market outside the Haitian Market. The market was very comprehensive, with hostels, restaurants, and small auctions around. There were all kinds of things, and there were endless streams of people.

But as they walked out..

What they saw was a dilapidated market. The original hostels and restaurants were all ruined, and traces of a big war were everywhere.

“What is going on?” Gu Chaoyan was confused.

They had no idea what was going on outside after they walked out of Haitian. They had no idea if it was because those people were killing each other or because monsters or witches had invaded them.

There was no one around, except for some people at the market.

Gu Chaoyan observed everything carefully.

There was something shining in front of her. She walked closer and saw an interspatial ring, which seemed to have been accidentally scattered during a fight.

Gu Chaoyan checked the things in the interspatial ring that were quite long. There were only some golden knives and Spirit Stones, nothing special. Gu Chaoyan put away the ring first.

They continued to head towards the hostel where the hidden guards were staying.

The hostel was still there, but it had been badly damaged during the intermediate fight. There was no one inside.

She showed a look of worry. “Where had they gone?”

When Gu Chaoyan asked the question, she had not thought that they might have run into an accident. What she had been thinking was that they should stay away from each other.

Because…

She trusted those hidden guards for their abilities.

Zhou Huaijin was also observing the place. When Gu Chaoyan asked the question, Zhou Huaijin said, “They should be not faraway from here. The hostel is right here, and we are coming back to find them. So they won’t be faraway. In the meanwhile, they won’t leave either, because they are not sure if we are safe inside.

“Let’s explore the area.”

“Okay.” Gu Chaoyan responded, as they started to look about.

The hidden guards from the Shadow Door were renowned for their expertise in concealment and stealth. They excelled at remaining hidden even in plain sight.

During their search, they received a signal from Fu Bao, prompting a group of black-clad figures to approach them. It was the hidden guards who had been assigned to protect them.

“Mr. Head, Lady Chaoyan!” the hidden guards greeted them respectfully.

Observing that the guards were unharmed, Zhou Huaijin and Gu Chaoyan felt a measure of relief. Without the ability to wield magic themselves, they had been concerned about their vulnerability in the midst of the recent conflicts.

Zhou Huaijin inquired with a calm demeanor, “What has transpired?”

The leader of the hidden guards stepped forward, his gaze sweeping across the desolate scene. “Mr. Head, shortly after you entered the market, a barrier unexpectedly materialized, isolating us from the outside. Chaos ensued, with people turning on each other in a frenzied attempt to seize each other’s interspatial rings and escape. They claimed that chaos was imminent.”

“Monsters emerged, cunning and elusive. They possessed pills that allowed them to assume human form. Many lives were lost.”

“The monsters have since vanished.”

“Knowing our inferiority against these monsters, we chose to conceal ourselves for our safety..”
