Pei Guanli's sobs ceased, and she broke into a tearful smile as she hugged him. "Brother-in-law, you're okay! You're okay…"
"COUGH, COUGH..."
Chen Yi tried feebly to push her away, but when he couldn't break free, he simply let her hold him.
He gazed at the full moon peeking through the gaps in the dense canopy of leaves and thought to himself:
'That was genuinely dangerous.'
'The Five Poison Sect, Liu Zhaoxue of the Jing State Liu Family… This isn't over!'
But what Chen Yi and Pei Guanli didn't know was that, on a tree several hundred yards away...
Chen Yunfan was staring at them, dumbfounded.
To be precise, he was staring at Chen Yi lying on the ground, his face and eyes filled with utter disbelief.
'Brother Yi?'
'Is that Brother Yi?'
'Brother Yi has reached Spear Dao Perfection?!'
'Damn it, that's impossible.'
'How is that even possible?'
