The Summer Acquiring Bird said with trepidation, "I already told you to retract that one soul, but you didn't listen. If you had taken it back earlier, why would we have to live in fear today?"
She paced back and forth in the hall, sitting and standing restlessly, then suddenly asked, "That hurricane messenger didn't leave any clues at all?"
Lin Suqing shook his head, his face creased with worry as he said, "We had just finished dealing with Aunt's family's business when that hurricane struck. It felt like it had been waiting there all along, which is the most terrifying aspect. If that really was the case, then neither Doggie nor I sensed it. We used to be in the light, with our enemies lurking in the shadows, but now we are in the shadows, and we failed to realize that our enemies are hiding in even darker, deeper places. It is truly unfathomable."
