Upon encountering the gaze of President Xuanyuan Wuji, the Lord of Demon City—elfin and innocent—the leader of Heiyao Country, the blue-clad man Yan Lie, became distinctly unsettled.
Yan Lie, already agitated to the point of abnormality, pondered why they were terrified to the point of... "soul not attaching to the body and nearly soul-shattering," he mused.
