"Young Patriarch Xun'er, although I don't know why you attacked my partner, opportunities in the Heavenly Tomb are rare treasures that can only be encountered, not sought. Hunting energy bodies and improving ourselves should come first. Besides, our ancient clans share an alliance.

After appearing, Hun Changqing had no idea what a visual shock he had given the two women. He stared at Gu Xun'er, his brows slightly furrowed, and spoke tentatively.
