As Fu Rui's large red curtain descended from the heavens and gradually obscured Pei Yan's vision, his heart sank deeper and deeper. He had no time to ponder whether he had successfully deceived the opponent; he was more concerned about Xia Yu's safety.
Leaving Xia Yu to perform the final act was a meticulously considered decision by the department. Everything, from the confrontation with the Shenyu visitors to being hurt by Pei Yan, was calculated.
