“Hehehe, it is this olddooloriousyellow teeth His demeanor made others feel that his smile was very sinister
Up the stream, Li Qiye could see the dim structure of the Ily cold and his aura exceeded anything that a thirteen year old child could exude
Li Qiye took a deep breath and then stared at the old man After a while, he eventually asked: “How should I address you, oldIncense Ancient Sect, Old Devil” The old olden teeth while s Incense Ancient Sect…” Li Qiye whispered under his breath This name made him recall the sealed memories in his mind These memories were from a time when he was still iained his coht noho has the Heaven’s Will?”

“No one knows The Black Dragon King went ” Old Devil shook his head
Hearing this, Li Qiye’s expression drastically changed He looked back at the Iain and finally understood why he had regained his body
