Chapter 22: Cousin Zhu Yan

“Those fellow sure react fast!”

Wang Chong frowned.

The response from the Yao Clan came faster than he thought.

“Those two people had been following us ever since we left the house. I wasn’t able to confirm it back then, but I am sure that they are here for us now.

Meng Long came closer and whispered with an affirmative voice.

Wang Chong didn’t say a word, but a storm had already broken out in his mind.

Wang Chong clapped his hands together and grinned.

It was only a small matter to chant a portion of the scripture for Wang Chong.
