Chapter 2304
- The black-robed man knelt on the bluestone outside the chamber, his forehead pressed tightly against the cold, rough ground, his neck stiff, not daring to make a sound.
- Although the malice Mystic Vale had released earlier had subsided, the oppressive force remained, as if a ten-thousand-pound boulder pressed on his heart. Cold sweat soaked through his heavy black robe, chilling his back to the bone.
- He could clearly feel Mystic Vale's heavy gaze from inside the chamber, like two blades laced with icy poison, stabbing through the ebony door and piercing him. If he uttered even half a lie, he would meet a soul-shattering end.
