Song Wen and Ying Wu then headed out, instructing Han Yan to take them to another patch of high-grade spirit fields.
As Han Yan stepped through the wooden door, he glanced back at the female cultivator still standing dumbfounded in the spirit field. There was a trace of guilt in his eyes, but it vanished in an instant.
Though Song Wen and Ying Wu had been brought here by him, the matter had not begun because of him.
As for whether the female cultivator would suffer Kurong's wrath, he could neither concern himself with it nor do anything about it.
