“Marshal, are you not asleep yet?” Sir wang caht

“With oing on and external forces at play, how could I possibly fall asleep?” Qiu Jianhan gave a heavy sigh and asked abruptly, “Have youfroorriedly “Those people refused to keep in further contact Since the rejection of our last attempt to reach out to them, they have all suddenly disappeared; vanished froroaned, “If we don’t obtain vengeance for the Nine Suprehly unlikely to co kept quiet for a few breaths before he said, “Nonetheless, there are quite a nu that these people are still actively pursuing their course”
