"You are insolent!" The Kaiyang Saint Heir, an arrogant man by nature, turned livid with rage.
Pei Shaoqing gave a light wave of his hand. "Spare the masked one. Kill the other two without question."
'It was essential to keep County Magistrate Wang alive.'
'They had a foundation for cooperation. If he died here and the Profound Yellow Sect sent another Sub-Squad Leader, there was no guarantee the new one would be as agreeable.'
County Magistrate Wang froze. 'You've got to be kidding me. I'm wearing a mask! How could you still recognize me?!'
"You're the one who led the guards here, aren't you? So you're the one who's been hiding in the shadows! Well done! You treacherous Court lapdog, betraying the Holy Sect!" The Kaiyang Saint Heir and Zhou Shunqing glared at County Magistrate Wang, their faces a mixture of shock and fury as they cursed him.
County Magistrate Wang: "..."
He chose to quietly retreat to one side.
To avoid getting caught in the crossfire.
