The Stone Man seemed to be answering, but what he said was not at all what she wanted to hear.
He was clearly holding something back.
Song Wanning's expression hardened, and she instantly released her immense pressure.
The Stone Man, who had just been able to hold his head up, was instantly crushed by the pressure, unable to look up as he began to tremble uncontrollably.
Only then, realizing Song Wanning was angry, did the Stone Man finally begin to answer in earnest.
"I'll talk! I'll talk!"
The Stone Man's voice was filled with nervousness and a hint of resignation.
"I saw the prophecy on the stone stele behind us!"
It sounded rather absurd, because ever since the stele displayed the prophecy that one time, it had never shown any signs of its power again.
He was genuinely worried Song Wanning wouldn't believe him.
"Oh?"
Hearing this, however, Song Wanning was mostly convinced. She shifted her gaze to the stone stele behind them.
