「A few days later.」
Lion Flame Academy, in the Lion Flame Royal Capital.
A delicate courtyard gate was opened from the inside. Wu Yiyi stretched and walked out.
She looked at the guards standing watch outside the gate and asked, "I've been in seclusion for a few days. What's the situation outside? Have you captured the Fake Lu Chao?"
The guards' expressions froze.
With trembling lips, they replied, "Miss Yiyi, the Fake Lu Chao... has laid siege to the city."
Wu Yiyi was stunned. She blinked, wondering if she had heard them correctly.
Finally, she asked blankly, "What did you say? The Fake Lu Chao has laid siege to a city? Which city? *What* city?"
A barrage of questions bombarded the guards.
"It's Lion Flame City—our Lion Flame Royal Capital," a guard couldn't help but say, his voice trembling.
Wu Yiyi's jaw dropped. Her face was a mask of utter bewilderment.
