The instant darkness swallowed the three of us, I felt an immense tearing force seize my body, as though an invisible hand were trying to wrench us apart.
Su Yunshang's arm tensed sharply, her nails almost digging into my forearm.
It was the same with Luo Shangdu; her other hand clamped onto the clothes at my waist.
