Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she suddenly realized something and whispered to Lie Yan, "Has the battle already been decided inside? If the black-robed man's master won, we'll be in big trouble!"
Lie Yan nodded solemnly, and the two of them gripped their weapons tightly, watching the direction of the castle warily.
However, before they could even catch their breath...
An even more powerful and eerie voice came from inside the castle once again; it was none other than the voice of the Skeleton Demon Lord.
"Not good! He's not dead yet!" Yan Batian's face turned deathly pale instantly, and the flames of fear that had just been extinguished in his heart burned fiercely again.

The man in black robes watched as Lie Yan and the others escaped, but he had no time to give chase.
