On the way back to Lu Xingkong's residence, the leader of the tailing group emerged from the Enigma Soul Array, having already arrived ahead of Lu Xingkong, and reported everything he had witnessed.
"What's going on? Two living, breathing people, and you still managed to lose them!" Lu Xingkong froze momentarily before his expression turned grim and he demanded sharply.
"We hadn't expected that the mountain's tunnel system would be so vast. While tracking them, we lost our way, though only for a short time. After escaping from the confusion, we immediately searched for Li Zhongnan, but he was nowhere to be seen," the guard captain replied.
Lu Xingkong furrowed his brows tightly, his voice icy as he retorted, "This is the first time—and it will be the last. From now on, you will follow Li Zhongnan relentlessly, without fail. If this ever happens again, you'd better consider how I'll twist your head off! Now get out!"
The guard captain shivered with fear and withdrew promptly.
