Yet every great battle left behind aftershocks, and this time, the aftershocks were rather immense.
Deep within Void Space.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Streams of light streaked through the lonely, pitch-black Void Space, faintly emanating powerful auras. They were Hun Qianmo and his group.
At the center of the group, Hun Qianmo hurried onward with a dark expression on his aged face.
How was he supposed to explain this to the clan after returning? Hun Miesheng was dead. He might be able to wash his hands of it, but the clan's accountability would inevitably fall upon him. What was he to do?

Hun Qianmo's teeth chattered
