"The man now said solemnly, "I know you are eager to find those people. I might have a way to help you find them sooner."
"Han Yun paused, he didn't rush to speak, but just stared deeply at this person. "
The man felt a shiver run down his spine from the intensity of her gaze. He was completely unsure what would happen next.
The scene fell silent for a moment. Han Yun suddenly raised the corner of his mouth slightly, glanced at these men, and said with an ambiguous meaning, "So, what do you want"
Being exposed by Han Yunchi, the man pursed his lips, a hint of embarrassment on his face. However, for the sake of these junior disciples around him, he still had to grit his teeth and say:
