Chapitre 161: Broken Allegiances III

As Mengting, Mingliang, Lian Yaoshi, Selene, and Liu Yong stealthily infiltrated Jadeleaf City, their hearts pounded with a mixture of anticipation and anxiety. They had no idea that their well-thought-out plan might have been compromised. The shadows of buildings and trees cloaked their movements as they crept closer to the castle, guided by the dim moonlight.

However, when they finally reached the castle grounds, a scene of surreal surprise awaited them. Standing there, seemingly at ease, was Xylan Frostbinder, the Intermediate Martial Master, renowned for his icy powers. Beside him were three formidable vice-commanders, each possessing the power of a Advance Martial Iniation. But what shook them to the core was the presence of a fellow human with a similar cultivation level.

As Mengting and her companions hesitated, Xylan Frostbinder's cold, piercing eyes locked onto them. There was a faint, mocking smile on his lips as if he had anticipated their arrival.
