Sucking Away Luck, One by One

Once all his subordinates had left.

Morris took out his communicator and contacted Lu Qingxian.

"My lord envoy, have you found Yi Chen?"

Lu Qingxian froze.

If you haven't found Yi Chen yet, why are you contacting me?

They had outright let the Shadow Emperor kill Tosman too.

So much so that even Lu Qingxian began to suspect whether the Earth Tree Race truly had some kind of innate incompatibility
