"Someone is targeting us?" They muttered in surprise.

"How is that possible?" Ding Yao couldn't believe it either.

"Think of it, what are the chances of someone being able to cleanly take care of our people and not leave any traces? Who is so capable that they can steal from a sealed spatial storage pouch, and not alert anyone?" The scarred faced man elaborated.

"So there was someone watching us?" someone in the hall muttered.
