I rooted my legs to the ground and held my sword firmly, taking in the sight of around seven to eight practitioners moving around the courtyard. They all wore shady robes and were at the Viscera Purifying stage.
It seemed Qin Mao wasn't here and the most powerful of them was at the Peak of Viscera Purifying.
''That's him. Zui Fan!''
''So the girl isn't here but the prey actually came… Our luck is good today, I should have brought more to ambush him.''
The rank 9 practitioner took out his daggers. All of these practitioners didn't have many weapons with them, meaning they had gone through a tight check to enter this area. However, their leader had still managed to slip in two daggers for himself.
I was kind of surprised that no Meridian Opening practitioner had come. Then again, they were the big heads and would immediately be recognized by the guards.
