News that the force of nearly two hundred experts sent to kill Hong Yu had been all but annihilated had already reached Venerable Xiahuang's ears.
He was furious, but more than that, he felt a deep sense of dread.
He had long heard of Hong Yu's strength, and his understanding had deepened the moment he saw him fight Zhao Wushuang. He had believed that while Hong Yu was strong, that was the extent of it.
That was precisely why.
Venerable Xiahuang had confidently sent Zhao Wushuang and the others—a force of nearly two hundred—to deal with Hong Yu.
He thought it would be an easy catch.
But the result had far exceeded his expectations.
He had lost the bait and the fish!
