Great Qin, Great Yuan Era.
May 17th.
The rebel Ni Tianxing, wielding a sword in Fufeng County, massacred the Zhao family, fought fiercely against the law, and, with a severed arm, escaped.
That day, a crimson star flashed beside the Purple Forbidden Enclosure Star, casting ominous light, overshadowing the imperial radiance.
Guangxing Platform reported overnight.
The malefic star bewilders, the foretold calamity has arisen.

Atop Ghost Cry Cliff in Fufeng, the pale-faced Yu Wenze and the aged Master stood shoulder to shoulder, their weapons shattered, yet their expressions remained indifferent.
This Pillar of the Seventy-Two States narrowed his eyes, gazing at the clouds below, with a severed arm at his feet.
"A cliff stands a thousand ren high, here Heaven and Earth are inverted, making it impossible to soar."
