Who was it?
The blond youth frowned and looked around.
Only then did he realize that, at some point, a young man had appeared at the street corner.
The young man wore a green robe, his face youthful.
But just standing there, his gaze calm, he brought the blond youth endless pressure.

Jiang Fan knew that once it went beyond three generations, tracing things back would be
