When Golden Finger M Chapter 269 : Preparing for Rescue

"Prey" was certainly not a flattering description, containing not even a hint of goodwill.

While Jiang Mo's group was interrogating the native youth, Tan Xin and the others who had fallen into the aboriginal settlent had already seen other captives in the prison. The number wasn't particularly large, but neither was it small—roughly estimated at one hundred and eighty people.

Among them were those Tan Xin's group recognized and those they didn't, cultivators of both the righteous and demonic paths.
