"Lin Chen!?"
Zhao Rushi looked at Lin Chen, then glanced at her own beloved disciple, as if she had understood something.
"What exactly happened in the secret realm?"
Seeing Zhao Rushi looking as if she was about to blame Lin Chen for something, Xu Ma'an hurriedly came forward and started asking Lin Chen and his companions what had happened.
Let the young resolve their own issues. Xu Ma'an, who had once been young himself, naturally knew that something must have transpired between Lin Chen and Wang Yilin.
Upon hearing Xu Ma'an's words, Lin Chen, Xu Lianyu, Wang Yilin, and the others furrowed their brows deeply.
They recounted everything that had happened in the secret realm, including the encounter with the Demon Cultivator of the Black Cloud Sect and the betrayal by Xu Qiang and Huang Liang.
After hearing everyone's account, the expressions of Xu Ma'an and the other Peak Masters became grave.
