Volume 4 Taqing Sect 525 Green-faced Ghost

Meanwhile, in a side hall within the Xu family fortress, the patriarch of the Xu family along with several elders gathered to discuss something.

"Big brother, Envoy Liu only took Xu Ye with him this time; what if something unexpected happens? You know those two ghostly creatures are quite formidable. If anything happens to him, and the Taqing Sect starts asking questions..." Xu Kaiyang expressed his concerns to the gaunt elder.

"That… should be unlikely! Since he is so confident, he's probably got some tricks up his sleeve. Besides, Xu Ye is naturally cautious, and his Five Stars Shield has quite impressive defensive capabilities. Even if he can't defeat the ghostly creatures, he should still be able to retreat unharmed," the gaunt elder stroked his beard as he spoke in a soothing tone.

Perhaps his reassuring words had an effect, as the rest of the elders present relaxed their expressions, evidently harboring similar worries beforehand.
