The group walked towards the city at an easy pace.
"What is that black bead?" Wen Zhixing, however, had an unusual look in his eyes; he stood at the very back of the team.
Unlike the others, his gaze seemed to scan the surroundings but was in fact taking every opportunity to watch Hua Yourong. In what appeared to be a casual glance, he caught sight of the black bead.
As I thought, she's up to no good. Wen Zhixing turned his head, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. Although I don't know what that black bead is for, her expression says it all. This demoness is plotting something wicked.
His mind immediately became extra vigilant. He would crush the jade talisman given by Elder Wu at a moment's notice.
"This junior brother, you seem somewhat unfamiliar; did you just join the sect?" Just then, noticing Wen Zhixing seemed to be somewhat distracted, someone chuckled lightly and spoke up.
