Chapter 273: Slaying God_2

The burly man, noticing that the siblings had no intention of escaping, left the wooden cage satisfied. With a "clang," he closed the door and secured the iron chains.

Inside the cage, the young boy who had just been arguing was now scared like a covey of quails, trembling in his sister's arms. Just a mere glance at the burly man had completely evaporated his little courage and defiance.

"Sister, what are the sky gods?"

A silent pause filled with a sense of depression and repression lasted for a while. The boy finally mustered up the courage, curious and cautious, to ask his sister about what the hulky man had been referring to.

"Sky gods..."
