The group carefully made their way toward the cave from which the noise emanated.
Suddenly, they caught sight of a lone shadowy figure in the darkness.
All three became alert, with Bai Jie gripping her Tang sword, preparing to strike at any moment.
Ye Chenfeng looked at the person, a slight smile curling at the corners of his mouth. Who could it be if not Li Yang?
At that moment, Li Yang's clothes were tattered, and his hair was a mess, making him look as though he had emerged from the depths of hell.
"Save... save me..." Li Yang said weakly, his expression one of torment.
Ye Chenfeng pondered for a moment and then quietly said, "With me here, you won't die."
As if seeing a glimmer of hope, the previously listless Li Yang's eyes suddenly lit up with hope, his gaze becoming much clearer.
"How did you end up like this?" Bai Jie couldn't help but ask.
