Chapter 928 - Lord Ji

"A friend, huh?" Yuan glanced at Patriarch Gu, who looked much better than before in terms of appearance, almost as though he'd been resurrected.

Lord Ji smiled and said, "There's no point in hiding the truth. Indeed, it was Patriarch Gu who asked me for help."

"And to tell you the truth, I have been watching you ever since you came out of the Stairway to Heaven, Yuan."

"Huh? You have been stalking me since I came to Spirit Heaven?" Yuan was surprised to learn this information, even a little creeped out by it.

Lord Ji laughed out loud, "No, I wouldn't call it stalking. I didn't physically watch you with my own eyes— I simply gathered information about you."

"You had piqued my interest, so I wanted to know more about you— to understand you. Unfortunately, I still cannot understand your existence even as we speak. Your background is a complete mystery, almost nonexistent, almost as though you'd suddenly popped into this world."

"Tell me, where did you come from?" Lord Ji narrowed his sharp eyes at Yuan.

Yuan remained calm and said, "Sorry, but I don't have the time to chit chat with you."

"Then when will you have time?"

"I will think about it after I kill those two behind you."
