章 1481: Discovered Again

Relief washed over the group as they nodded, finding clarity in the explanation.

"As for those two, they were likely captured and had their wills crushed, left behind to sow panic. Your reactions played right into their hands."

A collective sense of shame settled among them.

The leader's cold smile cut through. "Don't buy into their schemes. Prepare yourselves. Tonight, we infiltrate and eliminate Shao!"
