Outside the main gate of Dongli Sect, Xiao Changfeng held Yun Yao with a gloomy expression.
Yet he was helpless, and could only watch with open eyes as the gate closed, and Li Ji'an's figure disappeared inside.
He wanted to exchange himself for Li Ji'an to leave, but the Blood Spirit Saintess seemed deeply rooted in emotion, utterly dismissive of his staying behind.
"Alas!" Xiao Changfeng sighed heavily, a sense of powerlessness creeping into his heart.
"Old demon..." He gritted his teeth wanting to swear a great oath in his heart, but in the end, he could only swallow it forcefully.
