The entire situation unfolded exactly as Zheng-Fu had predicted. Earlier, he had sensed the presence of the Qing-Niang-Ji Heavenly Hall Leader upstairs, though he wasn't sure if this highly skilled martial master was the actual leader. So, Zheng-Fu decided to have some fun by provoking a clash between the two powerful factions, taking advantage of the moment when the male monster became dissatisfied and started boasting about himself.
Once the men from the Savage Tortoise Clan left, the members of the Shadow Cloud Group followed suit. However, before leaving, the young man named Fong-Liang stopped briefly in front of Zheng-Fu's group, casting a cold gaze at them before walking away.
“What was that look supposed to mean!?” Diao exclaimed, displeased with Fong-Liang’s gaze when he looked at his group, once the Shadow Cloud Group had disappeared.
“Diao, they’re gone. Now you're shouting, but they can't even hear you!” Heng-Jie, standing behind Diao, interjected with an amused smile.
