"Don't panic. Have faith in Zhi Lan Saintess," Lu Zheng comforted Fan Boyu. "If White Smoke Valley were truly that formidable, they would not have remained tucked away in some corner of Southern Frontier all this time."
As a great expert himself, Lu Zheng knew very well how difficult it was to pry information from an Extraordinary with a thousand years of Dao Comprehension.
How could it be so simple? Their divine soul and true spirit had long since become pure and flawless, perfectly whole, without a single opening for inner demons.
