Hearing that those people were temporarily safe, Beiting Huang heaved a sigh of relief. It was because of him that they had fallen to this point, and if something had happened to them, he wouldn't have been able to overcome his own sense of guilt at this moment.
"Did Ming Su and the others come here too?" Beiting Huang inquired.
"No!" Beiming shook his head; the Old Turtle proved to be quite reliable as he had made sure to investigate the situation thoroughly, "There has been an accident at a very important Source Mine in the Spirit Realm. A section collapsed, killing many Stone Miners. They happened to see us passing by and detained the villagers!"
"Were Lingfeng and the others captured?" Beiting Huang's grip on his fists tightened.
"Yes!" Beiming lowered his head in shame, "They attacked just when the master was breaking through, and I didn't dare to act rashly!"
