Su Xuan froze. His gaze was locked on the Night Witch, a flicker of doubt in his eyes.
'Is that the Night Witch?'
What's more…
Rosaline and the others seemed wholly unaware of the Night Witch's presence. Even the ever-cautious Lucia hadn't noticed her arrival.
The Night Witch simply stood there, making no attempt to hide. The situation filled Su Xuan with suspicion, leaving him unable to make sense of what was happening.
And just as he was staring intently at her, she began to walk toward him with light, graceful steps.
Su Xuan instinctively moved closer to Lucia, only to discover with a shock that, aside from himself, his surroundings had frozen. Time seemed to have stopped for everyone else; they were all perfectly still.
"Lucia? Ivsha?"
Su Xuan looked at the motionless Lucia, his expression grim. He had no choice but to turn his gaze back to the Night Witch.
In an instant, the Night Witch was right in front of him.
