"One Senior Ye, one Senior Sister Tang, and another senior who's always been by Senior Ye's side."
"Th-this... we witnessed everything. They won't silence us, will they?"
Chu Yunxiao, who had witnessed it all, felt deeply uneasy. He and He Yunyu had watched the entire process.
Coupled with his own suspicions, he was not far from the truth.
Senior Ye and Senior Sister Tang were hunting down that unfamiliar cultivator.
