Xie Ningyuan, who had been standing guard, immediately walked over. "Are you all right?"
Lu Sangjiu nodded. "I'm perfectly fine. In fact... this might have been the easiest Heavenly Tribulation I've ever faced."
At her words, Xie Ningyuan's brow furrowed. "That's actually more worrying."
Lu Sangjiu shook her head. "Forget it. Whatever nasty surprise the Pseudo Heavenly Dao is planning, there's no point in dwelling on it now. We need to focus on what we have to do."
Xie Ningyuan nodded. "Let's head back to Bodhi City."
The two reapplied their disguises and returned to their inn in Bodhi City. It was only when Lu Sangjiu took out her Communication Talisman that she saw a message from Luo Linlang.
