Multiple voices overlapped, and Ian, after a moment of stunned realization, immediately understood that this was a spirit energy communication from those three children.
He wasn't too surprised, but immediately countered, "People entwined with chains of emotion won't feel restrained; you just think you haven't been manipulated——even your spirit energy might have been deliberately catalyzed by others."
"And Baron Leyan is exactly the one cooperating with those people, using you and his 'Chosen One offspring' for experiments..."
Wait... The Chosen One...
At that moment, Ian suddenly had an epiphany, beginning to understand why it was Baron Leyan, and why a noble lady and a child of the Chosen One would so coincidentally encounter such a disaster...

But the spirit energy communication interrupted his train of thought.
[Sorry, big brother, who said it was us being manipulated?]
