Whether it was Shen Moming who came to greet them or Li Hongjiu who stood up inside the cave, they both had unusual discoveries.
Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang, who returned, seemed unchanged, still the same as before.
Different were Tong Mingshan, An Wuzhi, and Zhu Xiangxin; their aura seemed distinctly different from before, as if a sense of groundedness from some new depth had been added, like someone with fair skin suddenly getting a tan.
They couldn't immediately identify what specific changes occurred in the three of them; it simply felt as though even their walking gait had subtly altered.
All eyes then focused on Chen Wuji, who was missing a leg.
Shen Moming hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What happened here?"
Chen Wuji shook his head and replied, "It's nothing, Hao Ji... can't come back."
