Zi Xiang wore a strange expression, his thoughts unreadable. No one could tell what was on his mind as he observed the unfolding events with a deep, calculating gaze.
The Soul Searching expert from the Soul Seizing Sect had failed to show up for "private reasons," effectively rendering his presence void in this matter.
However, Zi Xiang couldn't help but suspect that the expert had deliberately avoided this situation.
Perhaps he, too, harbored doubts about Xiao Ming's inexplicable prowess.
But Zi Xiang refused to accept what was becoming an increasingly clear reality.
His son, a once-brilliant talent, had perished—not at the hands of a Yin Lord or a Yang King, where his death might have been considered a cruel twist of fate—but by the hands of a mere Xiantian Realm brat.
That was simply unacceptable. His pride as a father rejected the notion of such.
