Murky Heart Lake surged with black waves.
The scolding voice of Long Mu Venerable boomed like thunder.
Xie Xuanyi, controlling the remaining soul of Jia Liu, knelt on the ground, whispering in explanation, "My lord, Lichao City's defenses are extremely tight; I was just in great peril... It was difficult to make contact."
Above the murky Heart Lake, another cold snort sounded!
Clearly, this explanation was not satisfactory.
Long Mu Venerable turned around, his expression dark... This Jia Liu, taking on a mission and going silent for three to five days, and now upon making contact, he had even made them wait for nearly two hours.
"Enough, stand up."
A moment later, Long Mu Venerable asked in a deep voice, "How did the task I gave you progress?"
"My lord, please look!"
Xie Xuanyi raised his head and projected the scene investigated by Bai Ze's finger bone onto the surface of the Heart Lake.
"Hmm?"
