Chapter 281
The Black Lotus Sect Leader’s gaze was fixed on Mo Zhuer.
All the excuses Mo Zhuer gave were ultimately inconsequential.
Did Xia He want to burn bridges and stop cooperating with the Black Lotus Sect?
If she said so, then that was the truth—because the man was already dead. Completely gone. Not even his soul remained; he wouldn’t even get the chance to reincarnate.
Had Xia He’s power crumbled once Xu Cang and his group emerged? Had Mo Zhuer chosen to cut her losses in time?
Perhaps at that moment, Xu Cang did have a considerable advantage.
But until the very last step, who could truly say what would happen? Advantage and disadvantage were merely subjective judgments based on the circumstances of the time.
And how exactly did Xu Cang escape? That was even more intriguing.
The existence of Xu Cang and his group of people was the most classified of secrets among the Four Holy Lands and the Five Great Sects. Only a Holy Lord or Sect Master, upon inheriting their position, would be informed. No one else was supposed to know.
