Li Huowang walked through Da Qi with a grave expression, observing his surroundings. This place wasn't as Niu San had described, with nothing but grass. At least here in the Da Qi capital, there were still endless expanses of rubble and ruins. Li Huowang had used the Spinal Bone Sword to travel from the Capital City of Da Liang. He had naturally arrived in Da Qi's capital, as Da Liang's Capital City was built directly on top of it.
A person blocked Li Huowang's path. She lay on the ground, as motionless and devoid of life as a corpse.
She appeared to be a large woman; over ten days of starvation had not been enough to reduce her to a skeleton. Instead, having drunk too much water, her entire body was severely swollen.
Just as Li Huowang lifted his foot to step over her, she suddenly moved. Her right hand, its nails blackened, trembled as she raised it toward him.
