"The Young Master is about to perform the Nine Nether Soul Summoning Technique..."
The old man's voice was dry and hoarse, laced with a hint of worry. "But... this place is teeming with Evil Qi and the heat is unbearable. If a soul were to dissipate here, it would have surely been incinerated to nothingness by the flames long ago. How could it possibly be summoned back?"
The other two men fell silent at his words, their expressions equally grave.
One was a burly middle-aged man. His bare torso was covered in menacing, blood-red runes, his muscles were corded, and his aura was immense.
The other was a youth with delicate features and fair skin. He wore twelve rings of various colors spread across his ten fingers, each one emitting a distinct, faint aura.
They were all retainers of the Zhang Family, their cultivation all at the Bright Heart Realm. They were formidable masters, dispatched here on orders to ensure Zhang Tianyu's safety.
