The Ghastly Sound Knights didn't look like an especially strong group. After all, they even had a B-class player among them. Yet they had repeatedly pulled off their operations and escaped unscathed. That was thanks not only to Jin Feixue's strength, but also to the support of the Player Families.
Still, it was rather surprising that so many people had set their sights on them.
"Now you don't have to worry," Shi Sanjiu said. "Even if they can get away unscathed, they'll probably be tied up in trouble for a while. They won't have time to keep an eye on you."

Xu Huo told Shi Sanjiu where he was going, then followed Old Qi out of the estate.
