In a supremely vast room, the atmosphere was tense and electrifying.
Nie Wenyu and her sister were suspended from the ceiling by a rope, with a massive array of sharp blades beneath them. Should they fall, they would likely be impaled and turned into hedgehogs.
Surrounding the area were four men with fierce auras, each holding crossbow arrows aimed at the two women. Xiang Zuo stood between them, his face carrying a glacial gaze as he looked at Ye Luo.
"That so many have failed to harm you truly surprises me," Xiang Zuo said with an icy voice.
"No matter how many ants there are, they can't kill an elephant," Ye Luo retorted coldly. "I'll give you one chance to release them, and I won't kill you."
"Why must you oppose me? If it's for Nie Wenyu, I can hand her to you—I only want what belongs to me."
Xiang Zuo's eyes glistened with a hawk-like glint as he coldly stared at Ye Luo, his expression incredibly unsightly.
