"Sect Master, I must apologize. I failed to stop the Heavenly Demon from escaping," Chuyunzi bowed and said.
The fact that the Heavenly Demon could turn into demonic qi and escape was something Yan Rufeng hadn't anticipated. After all, the Heavenly Demons he had encountered before, although capable of transforming into demonic qi, would disperse once they were beheaded and could not escape in that form.
"Elder Chuyunzi, there is no need to blame yourself. Now that the Heavenly Demon has fled, we need to make a long-term plan..."
The two arrived at the base, where Wen JiaRen hurriedly approached them.
"Comrade Rufeng, how is it? Did you catch the real culprit?"
Yan Rufeng replied, "General Wen, the culprit escaped."
"Escaped?"
Wen JiaRen was very surprised. He hadn't expected the culprit to escape from the hands of Yan Rufeng and Chuyunzi, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.
Lu Mingliang walked over.
"Comrade Rufeng, just what kind of monster is causing this chaos?"
