The figure that struck Zhaang Ye as familiar was a slender, middle-aged man in a red robe with sharp eyes. He looked familiar because Zhaang Ye had once seen him from a distance.
This red-robed, middle-aged man was, in fact, the very person who had hunted Zhaang Ye before.
Months ago, after killing Zhou Yutao, Zhaang Ye had fled for his life. This red-robed, middle-aged man had nearly caught up to him near the Boundary River. Fortunately, Zhaang Ye had the Mysterious Blade Tip and managed to shake his pursuer by venturing across the Boundary River.
The man had been wearing a red robe then as well, which was why the image was etched into Zhaang Ye's memory. Despite several months having passed, Zhaang Ye recognized him at a glance.
Just as Zhaang Ye spotted the red-robed man, the man suddenly looked up, their gazes meeting. Alarm flickered in Zhaang Ye's heart, but his eyes remained calm as he nonchalantly looked away.
