Nan Ma suddenly awoke, finding himself lying in a vast underground cemetery.
He looked around and discovered that none of the Void Demons accompanying him were present. Instead, several Pilgrim colleagues he always considered burdens were around him.
The other four Pilgrims rubbed their aching heads and slowly got up from the ground. They were initially on Nan Ma's flagship, and when Nan Ma fell into Bai Zhongqi's trap, they wailed and frantically pounded on the doors, trying to make Nan Ma take them away immediately. But in the blink of an eye, they somehow found themselves here.
A Pilgrim named Xue Jiu, with a baby's body but an aged face, first approached Nan Ma: "Chancellor, why are we here? What is this place?"
Nan Ma had no good face for the Pilgrims, considering them always as mere hindrances with no critical roles. Nan Ma casually replied, "I don't know either."
