Advancement in Rank

Luo Xiao sighed. It seemed that he had to be beaten again, but just as he was accepting his fate he heard a yelp of pain and he quickly let go of Luo Xiao.

Luo Xiao was surprised when he saw this and instead of rushing away, he turned around to look at what was happening.

The hand that had grasped Luo Xiao was now bleeding, the tendons within the hand had been severed cleanly, but no one knew who had done so

Not even a shadow had been seen at the time he had been attacked, all of them were Sky ranked experts, so to be unnoticed like this, the attacker had to be at least an Emperor ranked expert.

Luo Xiao was quite surprised as well until he thought about the Shadow Guards he had seen at Jiang Yao's mansion. Could it be that it was the shadow guard who was playing tricks on them?

But if it was the Shadow Guard, why had they not stepped up the day before when he had been beaten black and blue. He still had bruises covering all his body now.
