"Be on guard." Xiao Jun said to her.
Senja concentrated more to her surroundings, sensing the strange feeling that she felt from those hypnotized teenagers. But, nothing. Or, she couldn't feel them unless they were close enough with her?
She didn't sure about this, the first time she could feel Gu Xie's emotion was when he was trying to kill the shadow guard in the fortress back then, but the last time she couldn't feel the teenager until he was so close for Senja to realizing her predicament.
