Were they like that? Obviously not!
"You don't have to hand it over. I don't think you'll give the Spirit Selection Art to anyone. You must have hidden it in an extremely secretive place. No one will be able to find it."
She glanced at Qian Jiyun.
"Jiyun, don't waste your breath on him. Just kill him. The Spirit Selection Art is probably impossible for others to find. There's no point in asking him. We're just making things hard for ourselves."
They could simply kill him and pretend that it was an accident.
Moreover, they were in the Black Pact Forest! No one would know even if they killed Lord Bai Ze.
"Alright, step aside."
Qian Jiyun nodded at her and took a step forward, really intending to kill him.
"What… What do you want?"
Lord Bai Ze was so shocked that he did not even stand up. He looked at Qian Jiyun warily as he dragged his severely injured body backward on the ground.
