Life in Hanyuan City had grown bizarrely peaceful after beating back two waves of unwelcome visitors (Qiu Li and the Nine-Finger Guild).
True Monarch Xuanyin had gone quiet, and the Nine-Finger Guild folks seemed to have pulled their horns in for the time being, presumably still recovering from the Old Ancestor's "remote-control reflux."

Wáng Liù's ice-chi anchor, which had been "spirit-blessed" by Xiaohong, finished its quenching process. Five frost-and-flame claw marks rippled across the dark gold anchor body like natural runes, radiating a fierce, lethal intent (and causing the Dharma Artifact's quality to skyrocket).
