The Wangyue City's Wulei Sect's manager Liao, as mentioned by Sha Hao, was none other than Yuan Ming in disguise.

At this moment, he was wandering around Sha Hao's cave dwelling, seemingly in search of the entrance. Suddenly, his face showed a look of shock, his figure blurred slightly, and he transformed into a phantom, shooting forward.

No sooner had he dashed out than a black sword shadow shot out from nowhere, nailing the spot where he had just stood—a broad-bladed short sword.

The fierce sword qi burst forth explosively, and the ground collapsed with a thunderous crash, leaving a pit about ten feet across and thirty feet deep.
