At the entrance of Gale Hall, Ji Yun confirmed the wax seal was undamaged. "The item is secure," he said.
With his words, the delivery was officially accepted. The handover was complete. The stern expression on the Fuwei Escort Agency's Leader of the Escort vanished, replaced by a smile. "Master Ji, do you need to send a reply? If not, we'll be on our way."
Ji Yun said, "Please wait a moment. Let me see who sent this before I make a decision."
Smiling, he tore open the letter and pulled out the paper inside. Just as he unfolded it to read, his gaze was instantly seized by a few large, conspicuous words—KONG YU DEAD.
The smile on Ji Yun's face vanished in a flash, his expression turning incomparably grim.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! My disciple, Kong Yu, has a Lower A-class Root Bone! He's ranked third among the Ten Heroes and was destined to break through the Marrow Cleansing realm. Nothing could have happened to him!"
