It was a single wolf's howl but it was enough to cut through the noise, grabbing everyone's attention. The crowds looked at one another both with confusion as well as anticipation.
"What's this? Could it be some special event?"
"A wolf's howl? Maybe there's some expert making a grand entry, a special guest even?!"
As the murmuring as whispers grew, the faces of those like the Emperor and Lord Tang Guang spoke differently. Furrowing their brows, the two of them shared a look before turning back to the others.
Everyone in that room had the same look, confusion and perhaps even some fear.
"What's going on? Where did that howling come from?"
The emperor stood up, immediately showing a serious expression.
"We'll find out soon enough! The Demon Brigades should be on the move."
With the sudden commotion up there, those down below felt that something was amiss.
