After that voice fell, a figure instantly appeared before everyone. Once the figure came to a halt, they realized that it was Ye Xiwen.
When two Ye Xiwens stood side by side in the sky, everyone was stunned. What the hell was going on? Yet they quickly understood, for it was not difficult to guess that the earlier Ye Xiwen had merely been an avatar.
