"Sister, long time no see."
At the deep palace entrance of the Ancestor Hall, Lin Yue glanced at Xiao Surong, who remained as cold as an iceberg, and asked with concern, "How have you been lately?"
"Isn't it just five years since we last met?" Xiao Surong retorted, then added, "I haven't changed much, except that I've lost another five years of my life."
"...Sister sure has a sense of humor."
"?It's just the truth, junior brother. Go ahead, Master is waiting for you."
Without further ado, Lin Yue walked into the hall, along the deep palace corridors, to the engraved bronze door once again.
"Master."
Lin Yue bowed and said, "Disciple has completed your request, so I came to see you."
Silence followed beyond the bronze door.
After a long pause—
"Boom—"
Amidst the rumbling sound, the grand and massive bronze door slowly began to open, revealing the somewhat dark hall behind it soon after.
