Bai Ruozhu's heart tightened. How should she tell her? She had done so much for her brother, if she heard that Xiaoxiao was gone, she might become utterly devastated, body and soul.
Without wanting to, Bai Ruozhu's momentary distraction allowed Zhugongzhu to catch the change in expression.

"What happened to him? Was he killed?" Zhugongzhu rushed over and grabbed Bai Ruozhu's collar, but her hand passed through Bai Ruozhu; she couldn't touch her.
Bai Ruozhu's heart ached sharply, "The Array absorbed his power. I'm sorry, I couldn't save him."
