The Temple of Cloud's Origin, along with the entire mountain, was destroyed overnight by QingWu.
The Longwei Army stood guard outside the ruins throughout the night. The terrified villagers who had fled the temple dared not leave under the cover of darkness. Fortunately, with the timely intervention of the Longwei Army and the Black Armored Guard, no lives were lost.
The calamity left a vivid and harrowing imprint on everyone's mind. It wasn't until dawn, when the first rays of sunlight touched their bodies, that make they felt as though they had finally returned to the mortal realm.
Only then did the villagers realize they had been lured to the mountain as part of a sinister plot to kill them. The children were so frightened they cried uncontrollably. Thankfully, Bai Mei Taoist recited a calming incantation, soothing the young ones and bringing peace to the shaken crowd.
