Within the Bai family palace in Yin Valley, Chu Han had already fought his way to the thirtieth floor and now stood before Bai Yi and Bai Liang.
Chu Han was no longer in his peak condition. He looked visibly exhausted, his clothes stained with grime, and there were wounds across his arms and back. It was clear that fighting his way from the twentieth floor to the thirtieth had not been easy.
The Bai family members on the thirtieth floor stepped back and formed a circle, yielding the space to Chu Han and the Bai brothers. This was also the first time Chu Han had received such respectful treatment since barging into the Bai family palace.
"Let me ask a question." Rather than immediately starting the fight, Chu Han caught his breath and asked, "Is Bai Yu here?"
