Chapter 114: Battle of Life and Death_2

Passersby on the road only saw a blur before a gust of wind passed by, and then he had vanished from sight.

Within a short while, Chen Li had already arrived at the city gates.

Seconds and minutes ticked by.

Chen Li waited anxiously.

"He's coming!" Chen Li's heart began to pound violently, and his palms grew slightly moist as he grasped the hilt of his sword, quickly tightening his hold.
