Legend of the Great Sage Chapter 156 - The Daemon-trapping Cage of Bi’an

Shen Xihua smiled. “Please settle down, everyone. I hope you can enjoy yourselves in my humble abode while I go retrieve the pills.” He retreated to the darkness outside the hall, and his smile immediately vanished. Something seemed to weigh on his mind.

“Sir, the island lord has invited you to the back of the hall,” a servant said to Li Qingshan politely.

Li Qingshan walked through the corridors, and two fierce men leapt out from the bushes in the darkness, blocking his way. “Who are you?”

The servant said in a hurry, “Good sirs, are you guests of our island lord?”

It made him worry to a point where his food turned tasteless, and he could not even get a wink of sleep.

Li Qingshan said, “How did you know I would kill you?”

“Do you really plan on sparing no one, sir?” Shen Xihua raised his head in great surprise as he stared at Li Qingshan closely. Desperation began to fill his eyes.
