At the doorway of the courtyard, Liu Xiujie was stunned for a moment, then squeezed out an extremely strained smile, "Lord Fang, what is this... we... he..."
He pointed at Shen Yi, and his speech was halting and stuttering.
He looked just like a child who went to a playmate's house to find someone and was caught red-handed by the playmate's elder.
Seemingly not wanting to see him embarrass himself here, a hand pulled Liu Xiujie back.
Li Xinhan, leaning against the outer wall, straightened his expressionless face and stepped in front of the courtyard entrance.
Both being Third-Rank Demon Suppressing Marshals, they were supposed to be quite familiar with each other.
Yet, he furrowed his eyebrows, hesitated for a moment, and with reluctance bowed slightly in greeting, his voice carrying a noticeable distance, "I am under orders to investigate demons and will depart forthwith. Shen Yi has already agreed to accompany me, I hope elder brother will be accommodating."
