"What the hell was making that noise?"
Qi Shiyun and the others all jumped.
Lianshan Xin's heart even stopped for a moment.
"It was a qilin."
This time, all his One Heart Society companions' hearts stopped together.

Lianshan Xin calmed down. "Looking at it that way, a qilin isn't all that."
Qi Shiyun nodded, calming down as well. "Its reincarnation couldn't even beat me. That
