"Keep a good watch here, don't let anyone disturb us," Ye Shikai instructed the Netherworld Palace guards at the door. One Tang Yun couldn't possibly attract a cultivator to assassinate her. The only possibility was that the cultivator was sent to kill Ye Shikai, and Tang Yun… unfortunately got caught in the crossfire. Ye Shikai felt guilty about it, but there was no way around it. Assassins exist to fulfill their objectives. They won't take anything into consideration, especially not innocent people.
"Yes, Master."
Thump, thump, thump.
Just as he turned his head, he heard footsteps coming up the stairs. Ye Shikai was too familiar with this. With such a big incident, Ji Qian must have arrived.
