Baiyu knew very well where the voice came from; it was the City Lord's Attendant, Lilith. She somehow managed to amplify her voice to the point where it could be heard throughout the entire dark curtain: "Everyone, don't panic. We are actively working on a rescue. Try to avoid combat with the Life Sect apostates; your deaths may become their nourishment.
Hold on until the rescue arrives, and you'll be out of danger. Also, remember, do not touch the green orb in the center."
After she finished speaking.
The voice fell silent.
Then, they saw the entire light screen constantly trembling, as if someone outside was pounding it relentlessly with a large hammer. At this moment, Baiyu wisely hid away; such matters should be left to the big shots to handle, and he'd better stay inconspicuous for now.
But things didn't go as planned.
As Baiyu quietly sneaked into a merchant's shop and hid on the dark second floor, the cabinet next to him moved.
Darn it.
