How could there be no one here?
Yang An looked around. There really was no one there, and he couldn't help but find it strange.
'Is someone in the Tree of Flesh and Blood spreading false information?'
'That's not impossible. What if someone's consciousness was taken over, and they used the Tree of Flesh and Blood to spread false information, luring everyone here to be wiped out in one fell swoop...'
Suspicion grew in Yang An's heart. He decided to find a place to hide and observe the situation first.
He definitely wasn't the last to arrive; others were bound to show up soon. He'd wait and see what happened.
Using the Dark Communication Secret Spell and the Illusion Technique, Yang An hid in the darkness. Before long, a shadowy figure arrived, just as he'd expected.
Yang An recognized him. It was a member of the Scripture Defector Association, and an acquaintance at that: Heart!
Heart didn't notice Yang An's presence. He silently approached the Demon-Banning Stele.
