Yu Sheng and Shi Guang had already taken up positions at the gates of Sin City at some point, waiting for Yu Mo as though they had been notified in advance.
When she spotted Yu Mo in the distance, even someone as calm as Shi Guang could not help remarking, "I never thought he'd actually make it out alive..."
"Yeah..."
"I thought he'd die in Sin City, given his talent for making enemies."
Yu Sheng nodded in agreement, looking somewhat surprised himself.

What was most surprising was that Yu Mo had survived until now, and had lived quite comfortably at that. Aside from when he first entered Sin City, he had hardly needed Yu Sheng or Shi Guang at all afterward.

"Let me join in?"
"I have no idea where you two went these past two weeks. I've been bored
