Countdown, a quarter of an hour.
The scene was deathly silent. Ye Wuyue could almost hear her own heartbeat. Every breath was a torment.
"It's all my fault… I wasn't prepared enough…" she quietly apologized to Guan Xin, "I'm sorry to have disappointed you."
Ye Wuyue knew if they failed this time, there would be no next opportunity.
But... what kind of preparation would be considered adequate? Ye Wuyue was bewildered… The opponent was the Supreme Palace, the White Jade Capital, the leader of the Immortal Dao... How could she possibly win against them?
Guan Xin didn't answer, her eyes unblinkingly fixed on the place where Celestial Venerable Sui disappeared.
To everyone, this last quarter of an hour was an endlessly long wait.
As the end of the countdown approached, Ye Wuyue still didn't react. Observing her state, everyone more or less understood that the Demon Extermination Bureau was at a loss, and this helpless silence was their final stubbornness.
