Duanmu Hong paused here suddenly, noticing the change in Hou Yuxiao's expression, then continued with a light chuckle, "Change at all?"
As he finished speaking, he led Qing Xuan and the four Rakshasa Holy Sect members of the Eight Divisions, turned around, and sped off in the direction of Qingmiao City to the west, leaving Hou Yuxiao standing there with a face that couldn't settle on one expression.
That statement of Duanmu Hong's could be said to have hooked onto the greatest concern of Hou Yuxiao's journey thus far: What did the restoration of the Chi Li Heaven Barrier truly mean for the Rakshasa Holy Sect?
