"The Chief ordered them to split into two groups and escort the 'Astonishing World Book' as they took a different route to leave..."
Xiao Huan answered in a halting voice.
Upon hearing this, a shadow of gloom passed through Ma Dang's eyes, and he smashed his soup bowl to the ground.
Bang!
The ceramic bowl shattered into pieces, just like the hearts of the wounded in the broken temple: "Damn it, we're all sacrificial pawns... specifically to attract the attention of the Imperial Court's pursuers!"
In Aaron's mind, the image of a young man concerned for his country and his people momentarily appeared.
His features were handsome, he treated people with warmth and courtesy, and he could even lose his head and spill his blood for his brothers, winning the hearts of many... It was none other than Cheng Dongnan, the Chief of the Qiankun Association!
'Was this unexpected or within reason?'
If it were the previous Shu, he would have been utterly disheartened.
