Although Xu Wuyan was still unconscious, the conversation among the women reached him clearly. At that moment, a wave of melancholy washed over him. Beneath the shadow—had these women ultimately broken into this world hidden deep within the shadows?
Although what Wen Jingci said was not entirely explicit, it was largely accurate. If the world beneath the shadow had rules, its only rule was that it operated on its own set of principles. Peace was the watchword of the modern era, but conflict was unavoidable, which was why this shadow world existed. The major powers of the world could not clash openly, so their struggles were relegated to the shadows. Every faction that managed to entrench itself in the shadow world had backing from some nation.
The sole rule down there was total detachment from the normal world. Aside from that, bloodshed, slaughter, and crime were completely unrestrained. If you lived, it meant you had the ability; if you died, it meant you were simply out of luck.
