Investigation in the Frost Forest

After assessing the infected bodies of the deceased cultivators, Zhu Zhiying discovered that the entire batch of them were affected by an Annihilation Class possession. However, due to his discretion of demonic possessions, the symptoms and effects of such a possession class appeared mild.

Yet, his knowledge was certain the possession was of the Annihilation Class but the effects didn't match to the degree of it.

Although Han Xuelian informed him that he would dispatch his disciples to search for the enemy's lair, it didn't sit well with Zhu Zhiying to remain idle. The Imperial Court General, with Han Xiaoyan's permission, was allowed the leeway to venture into the Frost Forest past the Ice Sect's curfew regulations.

Unlike her older brother, Han Xiaoyan never refused a helping hand. Especially if the free-of-charge assistance came from a General she regularly worked with.
