In a courtyard by the sea, a conversation unfolded in a study under the dappled sunlight.
"The weapons of Ning Yandeng's group have surfaced in the market," a voice echoed from the shadows of a corner.
"I was informed of this just now. What do you want to say?" replied the figure in the azure robe seated at the desk.
"According to reports from the market, the seller of the weapons possesses mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivation, emanating a fierce and wild aura. The probability of Ning Yandeng's group falling to their hands is high," the shadowy figure, now revealed in a black robe, spoke.
"Ning Yandeng's group has been dead for so long. Do you seek vengeance for them?" There was a hint of mockery in the azure-robed figure's voice, suggesting their relationship was not entirely harmonious.
