Bab 660: Provocation

A day after Nova and the others entered seclusion, a significant event occurred that sent shockwaves throughout the entire Western Continent.

Giant, translucent screens appeared above all the major cities, displaying a recording for everyone to witness. The image featured Aelina, seated on her throne with her legs crossed and her characteristic neutral smile gracing her face.

Due to the massive disturbance, people couldn't help stopping what they were doing to look up at the screen.

"What's that?"

"Isn't that the Sect Master of the Battle Maiden Sect?"

"O-Oh god! I-Is this going to be another torture video?!"

There were mixed reactions among the public. Some were scared, some were confused, and others were indifferent. However, almost everyone felt at least somewhat curious as to why such a strong and influential figure had appeared before them.
