After dealing with the minor trouble, Chen Yi turned his attention back to the main matter.
It had to be said that Xinluo Kalaman was more ruthless than he had imagined.
When he had just emerged from the Wind Vent, Fire Dragon had tugged at his clothes and told him that a large number of people were lying in ambush nearby.
