The Ethereal 'Dao Extremity'

Hearing Ji Yinxue's utterly emotionless voice, Dianling and Cuojiu felt their scalps prickle.

Kongji Holy Lord frowned slightly as well.

Counting backward from three hundred and seventeen years ago, there had been no indiscriminate slaughter of innocents—but what about during those three hundred and seventeen years?
