"Wonderful..."
The middle-aged man could not help but mutter in admiration as he witnessed Grey's glorious transformation. A strange excitement surged within his heart, causing the corners of his lips to curl upward into an elated smile.
His eyes gleamed with undisguised anticipation as he stared at the transformed young man.
"Simply wonderful! He's saving us the trouble of provoking him into attacking."
"Fool. Let's kill him."
"Hahaha..."
Several voices spoke at the same time, their tones varying from excitement to murderous intent. Yet despite the chaotic chatter echoing within his mind, the middle-aged man's expression remained calm and composed.
Meanwhile, Grey observed the incoming arc of energy rapidly increasing in speed.
The moment he sensed it drawing closer, he knew he had successfully accomplished his objective.
Now came the difficult part.
He would have to entertain the Spirit Core Formation cultivator and prevent him from killing him immediately.
