The so-called path into the mountains is hardly a path at all; it's just that so many people have walked on it that no grass grows on it anymore.
"Sect Leader Su, look over there!"
Following the direction of Cang Jue's finger, and shrouded in black mist, as they slowly approached, they could see the outline of a person lying on the ground.
Su Cheng stopped Cang Jue, who wanted to run to save people, and gestured for Cang Jue to stay behind him.
This black mist is not as simple as it looks.
Even if Cang Jue were separated, he might not be able to escape.
Su Cheng gripped Cang Jue's wrist, partly to prevent the child from getting lost, and partly to prevent her from doing anything dangerous.

Su Cheng didn't hesitate at all, just like the character he played—cold-blooded.
"Why?" Cang Jue's eyes widened!
She couldn't believe that Su Cheng had killed an innocent person right in front of her!
