"How did it go?"
After seeing Xu Yue reach an agreement with the old demon, Ye Fan asked anxiously.
"He agreed to swear a great oath. Afterward, he will definitely find a new body and return Pang Bo's freedom. There's no other way; this is the best we can do. Otherwise, we could only drag both him and Pang Bo down to death together."
