“Who are you people? Why have you brought me here?” Facing the vicious, fierce-looking men before her, Hei Ming Shixuan’s eyes still held a trace of innocent wonder, her pair of violet irises blinking rapidly, her plump little face full of curiosity…
She truly couldn’t comprehend how she had suddenly arrived here when she was just holding her big brother’s hand moments ago. Little did she know, this gorge held an illusionary formation passed down from the Primordial Era…
Though the men in the gorge couldn't fully control the grand formation yet, their familiarity with it allowed them to successfully separate Ye Jingyu and his group…
“Ha… Big Brother, this little girl is quite interesting. Shall we keep her for a few days?” Hearing Shixuan’s childlike voice, one of the men holding her laughed heartily…

“Why should I be afraid of you?” Hei Ming Shixuan responded with utter innocence…
Xue Hengzhi paused. Right, why should she be afraid of him?
“Little girl, our Big Brother loves to eat little girls’ flesh the most. Aren’t you worried he’ll eat you?” At this moment, one of the men, who understood his older brother’s desires well, chimed in…
“Him?” Hearing the man’s words, a flicker of disdain crossed Hei Ming Shixuan’s previously pure face, as if she had just heard the most ridiculous joke in the world…
