That voice was utterly ordinary, without the slightest force behind it or even a trace of murderous intent.
However,
At that moment,
The four Gu controllers, each considered top-tier in the outside world, felt every hair on their bodies stand on end.
Like startled rabbits, they leaped to their feet, their gazes snapping toward the rear.
"Who are you?!"
At some point,
A figure was already standing behind them.
All four sucked in a cold breath, their foreheads beaded with sweat.
Someone had approached them so closely, yet they had not sensed a thing?!
Fear surged through their hearts in a dense, crawling tide of ants.
Their backs broke out in a cold sweat!

His gaze swept over them without the slightest concealment.

it was as though he were examining white mice that had delivered themselves right to his door.
"You're Yang Qingyun?"
The gray-robed man with both hands charred black narrowed his pupils.

Why couldn't they sense the slightest trace of Gu energy from his body?
And how had he managed to evade the senses of all four of them and appear behind them without a sound, leaving them utterly unaware?
Just how powerful was he?!
All four were filled with uncertainty
