Within the vanishing Space, an ancient and decaying aura pulsed, as if plunging him into an icy abyss that chilled him to the bone.
The life force of the outside world was seeping in like a rising tide, threatening to wash the decaying aura away.
Under the relentless surge of life force, the ancient, decaying aura began to dissipate at a visible rate.
Shen Bai was planning to appraise all his Deceitful Objects as soon as he got back, anticipating a massive power-up.
But at that very moment, a faint, indistinct voice whispered in his ear.
The voice was quiet at first, but it grew louder as the surrounding scenery began to blur.
Finally, Shen Bai heard it loud and clear.
"We failed."
Just those two simple words. Shen Bai instantly snapped to attention, his head whipping around to scan his surroundings with caution.
He recalled what the Sunset City Lord had told him not long ago. Now, hearing those two words, "We failed," he couldn't afford to let his guard down.
