Su Yueling froze for a moment, wanting to speak, but upon seeing Xu Wuyi's calm eyes, she swallowed her words.
Xu Wuyi took a few steps forward and halted at the outpost's entrance. He didn't draw his gun. Simply standing with his hands behind his back, his gaze fell on the surging Beast Tide in the distance.
Deep within his sea of consciousness, the pale blue Heart of Order trembled slightly. Immediately after, an invisible force expanded from his body, spreading in all directions. Wherever this force reached, the flow of air slowed, the transmission of light softened, and even the distant roars of the Star Beasts seemed muffled by an unseen barrier.
Standing behind him, Su Yueling and Zhao Kun clearly felt the change. They couldn't see the Power of Order, but they could feel that the surrounding world had seemingly fallen silent in an instant. It wasn't a dead silence, but something far more profound, as if the entire space were waiting for something.
