Situ Jian shook his head. "I stopped setting up the runes."
The others were surprised. Although they were assigned together to get the job done, they weren't very familiar with each other in the beginning. It had taken a few days for them to get to know one another. After that, they assigned small tasks among themselves to get things done. Even if they were caught, they were loyal enough not to put each other in danger.
"Why?" asked Beixue.
"I did set up runes in the beginning, but…" Situ Jian sighed. "After we met Jiang Hao, I stopped."
"Is he that dangerous?" asked Shangguan Wen.
"I don't know… He shouldn't be. He doesn't look dangerous or powerful," said Situ Jian.
"He did notice my little trick, though. He is definitely not mediocre, or he wouldn't have noticed it at all," said Jing Ru.
