Below the Gu Ya, several figures dressed in Lotus Robes were shuttling back and forth, rummaging through the lush forest, seemingly finding nothing...
After a long while, someone exclaimed, "Come quickly and see!"
Several figures around immediately moved over, surrounding that person.
"Has the missing Secret Soldiers, along with Xu Sheng, been found?"
"No, it's just... look here."
That disciple of the Lotus Sect pointed at a piece of empty land.
Such land was common at the canyon bottom—damp, carrying the scent of decaying plants, and with a faint moldy smell due to the lack of sunlight. Yet... the disciples could sense something unusual.
There were crusts of blood on the soil, remnants of flesh, severely torn fabric, and bone fragments the size of beans...
The disciples of the Lotus Sect, who came to find the bodies of the Cyan Lotus Secret Soldiers and Xu Sheng, fell silent, an ominous thought creeping into their minds.
"Were they all killed? Then cut up like this?"
