"Brother Zu is back!" Ji Xiaoxi was overjoyed to see Zu An.
Soon, the women rushed out upon hearing the news, surrounding him as if afraid he might be injured or missing a part.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Zuan then gave a brief account of what had just happened.
Upon hearing that the powerful Mad King and the Green-Crowned Lizard King had died silently, the women all turned pale. The Demon Lord's strength was truly unfathomable.
I admire Zuan's quick reaction even more; he managed to turn the situation around in such a dangerous way.
Upon hearing that Salami was planning to perform a blood sacrifice on them, they all gasped in shock.
"That Salami is really treacherous and cunning. While he was negotiating cooperation with you, he had already planned how to scheme against you," Yun Yuqing couldn't help but curse.

Sorenshi's expression shifted: "There must be some intelligence that we haven't grasped!"
Zaun nodded: "That's right. We've been walking in the circle set up by the Demon Lord and Salami. No matter what we do, everything is ultimately under their control. What we need to do is break out of their trap and find another way."
"Brother Zu, have you come up with a solution?" Ji Xiaoxi blinked, as if she were seeing the scene of them exploring the mountains together again. He had this expression when he was confident.
