Bab 85: Chapter 85: Inquiry

However, Pei Xuanjing is unbothered by Jiang Bin's attitude. His interaction with the latter revolves more around collaboration than friendship, and as his own strength grows, his advantage in this cooperation becomes more apparent. He is confident that he can avoid any backlash.

"Mr. Pei, what are your plans going forward? How about you come back with us?" Jiang Bin extends an invitation to Pei Xuanjing.

After some consideration, Pei Xuanjing politely declines: "My fight today with the King of Equality was instructive and I've gained a lot. I should not disturb you further."

Hearing Pei Xuanjing's excuse, Jiang Bin nodded in agreement indicative of understanding.

"In that case, I should head back. The emperor is waiting for our report." Jiang Bin excused himself then.

The reason he came today was that the emperor took an interest in this matter, otherwise, there would have been no need for him to show up here.

Upon hearing this, Pei Xuanjing nodded, and they parted ways.
