In the dense forests, Gu Li was walking ahead of almost fifty shadow guards with his master.
"Master, I think we should stop here."
Gu Li said suddenly when he looked towards the sky. The sun was about to set down and soon it will be night. If they didn't make arrangements to stay for the night, then they would face difficulty in doing so because of the darkness of the night.

His hand stroked his white beard as he said this and his other hand was behind his back.
The other shadow guards immediately separated from each other to gather the things they would need for the night.
