"Good news!"
"Boss, Aunt Xiang, good news!"
Thudding footsteps came from afar.
Before the man even arrived, fearing he would knock the door apart, Xiang Yaoyao flicked a finger before the dressing table, and the wooden door flew open.
The arrival was the second-in-command overseeing intelligence on East Street of Crossroads Corner, known as Eagle-Serpent, with cold eyes and thin lips.
He was rather tall and had originally been lean, but following his big brother, he had trained himself quite well.
"Eagle-Serpent?"
Aunt Xiang raised her eyes and glanced over.
In her memories, Eagle-Serpent had always been a rather placid man, his emotions scarcely ever fluctuating.
How could an intelligence operative make such a fuss? Yet his behavior today was truly unexpected. Was it because they had not met for too long? Not really. It had only been a few months since they left the City of the Dead Futu.
"What is it?"
Holding a bronze mirror, Aunt Xiang asked softly.
Ever since Shen Yi's soul and intent returned from the Relics of the Gods, she had used this Golden Child Mirror as a body for him, giving Shen Yi something to reside in for now.
Yet after searching bitterly for so long, she still had not found a way to swiftly restore Shen Yi's physical body. It seemed she would have to trouble Xu Xiaoshou again! "Greetings, Aunt Xiang."
At the doorway, Eagle-Serpent, dressed in purple robes beneath a black cloak, saw Aunt Xiang's sorrowful expression, and the boiling excitement filling his heart instantly cooled.
He did not dare make a spectacle of himself again. After calming his emotions, he still could not conceal his joy as he said, "Master Shou fought Ai Cangsheng, separated by the Ancient Battle God Platform. It was a battle to the death."
