Liu Quan had not expected that someone would silently appear behind him, which startled him so much that he lost his grip on his sword technique.
Before him quietly stood a delicate-looking boy, about ten years old, with a round face and eyes like shining beads, black as ink. His long eyelashes framed eyes reflecting leaping flames. His lips were tightly drawn as he looked ahead, and deep dimples marked his cheeks. He wore a red robe with a double lapel, and it was unclear when he had appeared there.
Liu Quan was extremely weak and spoke with an unstable breath, "You, who are you? Are you also from the Huashan Sect?"
The boy looked at him, sizing him up before saying, "My name is Huo Wuhai. I am here under my master's orders to fetch my fellow disciple and you to Haideng Temple."
"Are you... Master Shi's disciple? Does he know that Deng Bagu is trapped here?"
