In the dark of night.
Rain rustled steadily.
That enormous eye stared fixedly at Shen Ye.
The eerie light it radiated stained the rain across the entire sky scarlet.
Bloody rain fell.
Shen Ye took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the Dark Bamboo Blade, ready to fight at any moment.
He couldn't run anyway!
There was nothing else he could do!
He might as well fight.
He was about to draw his blade when he suddenly noticed two of the three people beside him turn into skeletons in an instant.
The Female Archers!

Just like that, they were dead.
Damn it!

"Don't move!"
"The Sequence 'Godslayer IV' is initiating a joint faction council. You'll be fine."
Shen Ye couldn't help saying, "But those two-"
Two more lines popped up:
"They served this Outer God. They had a trust agreement with the Outer God, and everything was conducted according to law."
"This has nothing to do with you, nor with justice."
Shen Ye suddenly calmed down.

-Those three had just said they were here to hunt down an Outer God Apostle.
Yet two of them had an agreement with an Outer God?

He should at least wait until he knew what was going on before deciding what to do next.
He lowered his blade and simply stood in
