Bab 655: Unifying Wanzhou (VIII)

Jiang Pengji thought Wei Ci would shrink back, but it seemed that she had underestimated the guy. He really was something when he got pig-headed.

Wei Zixiao, do you think that your lifespan is too long for you? The Red Lotus Group doesn't care about anything like never killing the messenger when crossing swords or putting themselves in another man's shoes. They will be the first to kill anyone who is sent to proselytize other ideas during this critical juncture." Jiang Pengji's voice became a little unstable. She asked, "Are you unafraid of death?"

Wei Ci was not angry. On the contrary, he smiled and his expression softened as if seen through the lens of a soft light filter.

He said, "Naturally, I am afraid."

It was part of human nature to be afraid of death.
