Winning Over Hundred Birds (4)

To be honest, when Ye Qingcang revealed the list of core members, Mo Ya could not help but freeze for a moment as he processed the fact.

In his imagination.

Or rather, according to Straw Raincoat Guest's analysis and speculation.

This was not how Quicksand's membership should have been structured.
