Seven days later.
At the towering summit of Mount Taiping, right into the clouds.
Inside Taiping Palace.
Second floor study room.
Lu Wufei, clad in an ebony Liuguang robe, stood by a large window, hands behind his back, gazing into the cloudless autumn sky.
Footsteps could be heard outside the study room.
"Have they all left?"
Lu Wufei asked, still looking out the window.
"To report to His Majesty..."
Hu Yue entered the study room. Upon hearing Lu Wufei, he immediately spoke: "Apart from Elder Yu and a few of their brothers who are still lingering, the rest have all left the City of Ten Thousand Demons..."
Hearing Hu Yue's words,
Lu Wufei remained silent.
Without waiting for the king's reply, Hu Yue went over to a tea table on the side and began brewing tea.
