Guard Li hurried after her, his expression growing even more vigilant.
Yang Lingtian was concealed in the distance, his divine sense like an invisible tide enveloping the entire area.
He had also noticed Huang Yuelan's odd behavior.

That empty patch of air rippled like a tranquil lake struck by a stone, layer upon layer of visible waves spreading outward!
The ripples expanded, and radiance flowed
