Julia Stewart and Prajna Bates looked at each other and sighed deeply.
They were well aware of what happened last night.
Lily Tisdale fought numerous masters alone for their sake and eventually got injured, suffering heavily before their very eyes.
Despite knowing that the odds were against Tisdale's survival, they still hoped that he was alive.
Time passed second by second.
Unknowingly, an hour had gone by.
For Lionel Yeager, Julia Stewart and the others, this hour was undoubtedly torturous.
At this point, even Yeager felt uneasy.
Yeager screamed in his heart, "Tisdale, you must come back!"
They waited another ten minutes or so.
Suddenly, there came footsteps from outside.
"Someone's coming!"
Prajna Bates exclaimed excitedly.
Yeager and others quickly got up and rushed to the entrance.
Looking up, they saw a bloodied figure holding a bloodied Tan knife, staggering into the courtyard.
"Tisdale!"
"Mr. Tisdale!"
