The goddess was scared out of her wits.
"Brother, who are these people?"
Long Aotian took one look. "Liu Bo!?"
Liu Bo sneered coldly. "Long Aotian, are you coming with us obediently, or do I break both your legs and drag you away?"
Long Aotian sneered. "Your master even told me to protect you. Looks like that was completely unnecessary."
"You dog-like bastard, how dare you claim to know my master!?"

Long Aotian had been beaten until he coughed up blood.
But he also knew perfectly well that he could not use the Imperial Fire Seed.
He had no idea whether it could save his life if he used it now, but once it was exposed, the two great families would definitely hunt him down together.
Before long, someone arrived.
Pan An knocked on the door. "Thirteenth Younger Brother? Aotian, it's your Seventh Brother! It's me, Pan An!"
Mo Zigui and the others were stunned.
They had not even gone looking for him yet, and he had delivered himself to their door!?
The three immediately spread out, signaling Long Aotian to behave himself and not say anything reckless.
Pan An entered the room. Seeing Long Aotian, he did not have time to inspect him closely before leaning in. "How have you been lately, Thirteenth Younger Brother?"
Long Aotian's entire body hurt, and the blood at the corner of his mouth had only just been wiped away. "I've been fine."
At that moment, Cai Tou closed the door and looked at Pan An.
Mo Zigui sat on the sofa, watching Pan An.
Liu Bo walked over as well, his hands clasped before him as he stared at Pan An.
Pan An stood where he was, looking at Long Aotian...
The entire world... fell silent.
