Inside the cave, Wang Mubai transformed back into his human form and sat cross-legged, slowly healing his injuries. By his side, Tan Tianji stood in attendance.
During the battle in the Capital City, if Wang Mubai hadn't thrown him out first, Tan Tianji would never have made it out. After leaving the Capital City, Tan Tianji had followed Wang Mubai's instructions and waited for him at a specific location. He was visibly surprised when he saw the injured Wang Mubai. After all, Wang Mubai was a Great Demon. In terms of strength, he was not someone an average Defender Envoy could contend with. Tan Tianji frankly did not believe that even Dongfang Zhao could rival Wang Mubai. Yet, as it turned out, Wang Mubai had returned injured. Although Wang Mubai didn't speak of the reason for his injuries, Tan Tianji sensed it from the residual aura on him—it carried the power wielded by Dongfang Zhao.
