Arrival in the Capital

Wang Tao quickly flew into the city and found the residential complex He Jijun had mentioned. After using his spiritual power to see the people inside the apartment downstairs, Wang Tao immediately nodded.

"They really are all alive."

He Jijun's son, He Yu, and his family were all at home.

He Yu instinctively wanted to resist, but
