Chapter 1084 - The Grand Tutor Makes His Move (6) (1/2)

A black figure appeared beside Xing Lou.

“My lord…” The dark guard looked at Xing Lou with a complicated expression, as frustration flashed in his eyes.

“You have planned for so long, isn’t it so you can enter the Divine Temple? Now… your opportunity has finally arrived?” The dark guard had been secretly watching over Xing Lou and overheard the entire conversation with Hu Na.

No one was more aware than the dark guard what Xing Lou’s intentions were.

Which was why he was so surprised by Xing Lou’s apparent dilemma.

“Yes… I have waited for so long…” A heart-wrenching smile played upon Xing Lou’s lips, while his eyes exhibited not the slightest bit of joy.

The dark guard fell silent. Looking at Xing Lou’s expression, realization suddenly dawned upon him.

“Is it because of Miss Ji?” The dark guard couldn’t help asking.

On hearing the words “Miss Ji”, Xing Lou’s face stiffened.

Fengyan.

Xing Lou narrowed his eyes as he smiled bitterly.

As the dark guard looked at Xing Lou, he felt his heart contract violently. Nonetheless, he remained silent.

Xing Lou kept quiet for a long while before speaking again. “Head over to the Free Valley and tell Fengyan of Hu Na’s plan so that she no longer has to worry. The Wolf Smoke Regiment… and her former companion, they will all not appear on the battlefield.”

The dark guard looked like he wanted to say something, but in the end he kept his mouth shut and bowed to Xing Lou before leaving.

Inside the Free Valley, Ji Fengyan was pacing about the bedroom. She could not shake off a sense of foreboding.

At this moment, a gust of air wafted in and Ji Fengyan instinctively opened her door.

The dark guard was standing right there.
