"No!" Ye Ziyu's head throbbed as if it were splitting apart. She strained to catch sight of that familiar figure, but some invisible force seemed determined to stop her. An inexplicable panic, an inexplicable familiarity. Tears poured down her face for no reason.
"What a perfect opportunity!" Seeing Ye Ziyu on the verge of losing control, Yang Feng was overjoyed. Purple lightning crashed down, engulfing Lu Xiaotian within it. There was no way he could escape.
