The horse finally slowed down.
Mo Ying tapped Lin Xu's cheek. "…Wake up. We're here."
Lin Xu opened her eyes slowly, still half asleep. "Mm… already…?"
But the moment she looked around, she woke up fully.
The place in front of her… was nothing like anywhere she had ever been.
Tall stone pillars stood in rows. Big lanterns hung from the ceiling, lighting the whole area in a serious, heavy glow. Guards in dark red and black clothes stood neatly on both sides, their faces cold, not moving at all.
She knew this place.
She had heard the name many times.
"…The Punishment Hall of Xuen Palace," she said quietly.
Mo Ying nodded and moved the horse forward. "Yes."
People began to notice him, and the moment they saw him, they bowed deeply.
"General Mo!"
Their voices echoed loudly.
