Following the sound, Shang Xiufang made her way deep into the palace.
As Jiang Shuying’s devoted disciple, she possessed an intimate knowledge of the Ten Thousand Mile Landscape Painting; she was well-acquainted with this particular palace and had visited it more than once. Soon, she found herself walking with ease toward the deepest part of the palace—her master’s bedchamber.
Once she arrived, the sounds vanished. Due to the restrictions placed upon the palace, her Divine Sense could not perceive what was happening inside. Yet, Shang Xiufang was certain that what she had heard was no hallucination. Her master had to be inside, likely struggling to suppress the anomalies caused by the tattoo.

Shang Xiufang had come with the secret hope of pleading with her master to spare him.
