Kapitel 357: Chapter 356

"Qu Tong just happened to draw this task. It was merely an issue of luck."

"At most, it can be considered a neglect in my subordinates' work."

Si Yuting looked at Lan Xingrui expressionlessly, "Is that so?"

"What else? An accident occurred, and I am also making efforts to rescue, but obviously, I'm no match for a ninth-order Star Beast."
