"Old Zhang, why hasn't that red-bearded old man returned yet?"
After a short while, the few old men stationed at the edge of the eastern district had begun to sense that something was wrong.
This operation had been simple: instantly teleport over, unleash one move, then turn and run.
By rights, it should have been done in the blink of an eye. For any Great Emperor, it was no difficult task.
Yet there was still no sign whatsoever of the red-bearded old man, and far more time had passed than expected!
The old men responsible for receiving him felt a hint of foreboding.
Could something have happened?
"Maybe the red-bearded old man already left first and simply didn't tell us. That's just his personality," one old man said with an awkward laugh.
The others remained silent. They were not particularly familiar with the red-bearded old man—who knew what kind of temperament he had?
"We should leave. I have a bad feeling about this!" someone said gravely.
He did not need to say it. The others felt the same way.
This was no place to linger!
They exchanged glances and hurriedly prepared to flee.
The red-bearded old man had been gone for so long without returning. Something had definitely happened to him.
They had been willing to vent Heaven-Slaying Young Lord's anger only because the Reincarnation Emperor had not noticed. Once it was done, they would immediately flee far away.
But now, the Reincarnation Emperor had most likely discovered them. Though they had numbers on their side, there was no guarantee that the Reincarnation Emperor would not kill a few of them!
"Trying to run? Do you think you can get away?" A calm voice drifted over.
Mu Qing stepped out of a Black Hole vortex, with Xin Rui beside him.
