"This isn't good. The Tao Family is suspected of colluding with Xue Ying, yet at the same time, they've been sending all their people to join the siege to prove their innocence. Now they're stuck between a rock and a hard place..." Lu Xuan shook her head slightly.
Before she could finish, a sudden commotion erupted from the dense crowd in Qingfeng Temple's front courtyard, near the main gate.
Wang Chengdong of the Wang Family sighed.
"The reason I brought this up is to remind Observatory Master Lin that it would be best to cut ties with the Tao Family as soon as possible, unless absolutely necessary." His gaze shifted to the commotion, where a handsome young man was walking slowly through the main gate, a longsword in hand and a black, silver-trimmed, beast-patterned bundle on his back.
The young man's face was slightly haggard, but his distinctive features were still instantly recognizable. It was Tao Xuehai, who hadn't been seen in a long time.
