Huh?
The instant the protective shield around Qin Shaofeng vanished, Fu Changsheng, who was outside, sensed it immediately.
In fact, Fu Changsheng had already lost the ability to sense Qin Shaofeng's condition through the Crimson Thunder Bracelet when Qin Shaofeng had reached the halfway point of the passage.
