To advance from the Chenggang…

The second quarter of the 戌 hour. Ding Suian had already left Ji Pavilion. Lin Hansu, on a whim, sat before her dressing table and, looking into the mirror, divided her long, flowing hair into two strands, attempting to style a 'Fenxiao bun,' which symbolized an unmarried woman.

Green Frog Hospital, staff dormitory. Yu Kun, covered in blood, lay in a pool of blood amidst scattered flesh, gasping for breath. From the first ray of sunlight piercing through the window in the early morning to the vast expanse of white light pouring down, only a few short minutes had passed.
