Bai Wenbin scanned the courtyard behind him and then snorted coldly, "Who's there! Show yourself if you dare!"
Though he spoke confidently, Bai Wenbin's back was already sweating profusely. The fact that someone had approached him so silently indicated that their strength was at least above his own.
Bai Wenbin seriously suspected that the Blood Rainbow Pavilion had already sent an assassin to kill him.
At this thought, Bai Wenbin tightly gripped the sword in his hand.
Just then, a voice rang from outside the pavilion, "Commander Bai, no need to be nervous. I have come to help you."
Bai Wenbin quickly turned to look at the entrance of the pavilion, only to see a cloud of black mist slowly dissipating, revealing an old man in a black robe. His hood covered his cheeks, and only some wrinkled, tree-bark-like skin was faintly visible.
