A noble sacrifice
Xiao Chen descended from the sky, landing on the ground with tremendous force. The impact created a thick cloud of sand, dust, and gravel, and the surrounding trees shook violently.
The ground beneath them quaked, causing the three individuals in pursuit to stop in their tracks.
Ye Fan felt a sudden sense of unease and suspicion. His instincts were warning him to get away, and he tried to move his body subconsciously.
However, he found that he could not move at all. The guardians, who had been chasing them, were now kneeling humbly before Xiao Chen, their faces devoid of emotions.
"Senior, we need to leave. Something is not right here!" Ye Fan said hastily, his eyes betraying his unease.
"Long time no see, Brother Ye," Xiao Chen greeted Ye Fan with a chuckle, his voice laced with killing intent.
