Helian Yuyun stood outside a magnificent tent, feeling the free-flowing breeze atop the Guanhe Platform. Before her, knelt a silent silhouette enveloped in darkness, making not a single sound.
The shadows of the lamp flickered on the tent, resembling a ghastly, clawing specter.
Inside, the duel was overseen by the Golden Crown Priest Namo Duo, with Yuwen Ze, Na Liang, and the Current World Divine Envoy Cang Ming among others, all watching.
Yet as the Da Mu Imperial Princess, Helian Yuyun would never interfere with the outcome.
She had her own boundaries.
For example, she could grant Zhao Rucheng the opportunity to compete at the Yellow River Gathering, could force Jinge to accept a challenge on the eve of the main competition, could have Namo Duo emerge in the dead of night to preside over a duel...
But she would never disclose Jinge's true strength to Zhao Rucheng, nor would she force Jinge to admit defeat.
