The killing intent that had risen in Ye Tian suddenly dissipated, and he stopped in his tracks. He turned his head in surprise, gazing at the fallen figure of Ye Zhicang on the ground…
At this moment, Ye Zhicang was barely clinging to life. Everything that had transpired was caused by Xu Ziwen and Sima Kuan, yet he still pleaded on their behalf. Why?
"Run!"
Seeing Ye Tian hesitate for a moment, Xu Ziwen urgently exclaimed to Sima Kuan. The two exchanged a quick glance and then mustered what little strength they had left to leap away.
Though severely injured, they still had enough strength to escape. With a single leap, they left the villa area behind…
Ye Tian silently watched the two figures retreating into the distance without uttering a word. Once their forms disappeared from sight, he slowly approached Ye Zhicang and pulled out the small knife embedded in his palm.
"Ye Zhicang, are you alright?"
