Qin Buhui turned around, smiled faintly at the arriving group, and nodded in greeting.
"This...?!"
Fairy Qingyue's cherry lips parted slightly, her beautiful eyes brimming with astonishment.
Zhuo Wuchen's hand holding his sword froze, and for the first time, his stern face showed an almost vacant expression.

Li Chen must also have been tracking them from behind!
Such a heaven-defying killing move had been stopped by a mere illusion?
What level of illusion was this?
Just what sort of expert was Qin Buhui's martial uncle?
At the very least, he
