Of course, they were also worried that Lin Tian might be provoked into a temper tantrum by these words.
City Lord Jia, being from the military, also had a combative streak. He didn't speak, just quietly scrutinized Lin Tian. The message was clear: he tacitly approved of He Shan's challenge.
The City Lord didn't speak, and Lin Tian couldn't be bothered to distinguish right from wrong, nor did he need to prove anything. His expression was indifferent; he showed neither anger nor fear. City Lord Jia frowned, thinking, this young man is too calm; is he relying on something?
Seeing that Lin Tian didn't respond, Mu Yun said to He Shan, "No need to say more, let's begin."
"Alright, straightforward!" He Shan, provoked by Mu Yun, immediately forgot about Lin Tian.
