"You're welcome," Zhuo Junyue replied, maintaining his usual taciturn demeanor. However, prompted by Fan Lin's words, he shifted his back slightly toward Fan Lin, preparing to hand Bai Qingcheng over.
"He's been carrying her this whole way—what's a little longer? Might as well let him carry her straight to the courtyard," Sage Hun Yuan remarked, glancing at Zhuo Junyue and then at the unconscious Bai Qingcheng slumped across his back. A slightly lecherous smile touched his lips.
Zhuo Junyue shot him a glance but remained silent.
Fan Lin, however, paused slightly with his outstretched hand upon hearing this and smiled. "Then we'll trouble Brother Zhuo."
"I'll go inform the Master," Du Fan said cheerfully, turning to Sage Hun Yuan. "Would you like to come along, Senior? Hell's Lord has just awakened, and quite a crowd has gathered at the main courtyard."
"Great! I'll go see them." Hun Yuan said, immediately following Du Fan out.
