Suddenly, the sound of heavy footsteps came from the corridor outside.
Ladar and his companion's expressions changed at the same time. They turned to look.
At some point, two figures—one large, one small—had appeared in the doorway.
Ladar's expression turned incredibly grim as he looked at the two completely unfamiliar figures.
Even with his Tier Five Spiritual Power, he hadn't detected the slightest movement.
It wasn't until the two beings reached the doorway that they heard footsteps.
Clearly... the intruders had let them hear on purpose.
And when Ladar's gaze fell upon Huai Kong, an even more profound look of terror appeared on his face. His ugly features contorted uncontrollably, his pupils dilating.
"Vilornox! Why are you here?!"
It was like seeing someone who should have been impossible to see suddenly appear right before them. The group of them froze, stopping everything they were doing to stare in astonishment at Huai Kong, who stood beside Han Ning.
