Afraid I Won't Be Able to Keep You Safe
Bi Fan gave a faint smile. "I just need to make sure."
Wang Shu pressed his lips together and asked softly, "Then, if there are things I don't know or don't want to answer, can I just not react?"
"Of course." Bi Fan nodded. The next instant, his gaze grew grave. Pointing at Ling Xiaoxiao, he asked, "Do you know who she is?"
Wang Shu instinctively shook his head.
Bi Fan furrowed his brows and narrowed his eyes. "Have you heard of the Hunting List?"
He nodded. "Yeah, I've heard of it."
"Who's on it?" Bi Fan gently prompted him.
"You." Wang Shu pointed at him, then looked toward Tang Yunting, who was wrapped in bandages. "Then there's this invisible guy, the one who can turn into a phoenix, and the one who sets up formations. There are a few others who aren't here..."
"Then there's someone who could clearly have made the Hunting List. Why wasn't she put on it?" Bi Fan's voice was soft, and he seemed not to care much.
Wang Shu tilted his head and thought seriously for a moment. Then, as if something had suddenly come back to him, he blurted out, "That person is someone Lord Demon King wants to deal with personally..."
A moment later, he seemed dazed and covered his mouth, looking nervous and frightened, as though he'd let a secret slip by accident.
Bi Fan's heart tightened at the answer. A deep wariness and tension flashed in his eyes.
As expected, this girl had finally attracted the attention of the most powerful figure behind the scenes! Lord Demon King must be the one who ruled over the entire Devil Race, right? If he went after Xiaoxiao, could Bi Fan's strength stop him?
