Walking down through the narrow road that led down the mountain of the Red Phoenix Sect, Brutus took a deep breath. 'I almost died there'. He thought.
He was not bluffing; he almost just lost his life.
Spending time in the Red Phoenix Sect while still being just a qi gathering cultivator was a big risk on his part, but he loved gambling and was why he did it.
His decision to make a move on Aveline Ironheart, it was a gamble.
If his calculations were not accurate enough and Aveline flipped at being approached so suddenly, doing more than punching him against a wall, maybe he would already be dead and the Lord of Profanity would be history.
Besides, if Brienne Ironheart was angered that a stranger suddenly came and was seducing her virgin daughter, maybe he would be dead too.
But taking risk was part of the thrill.
'Sex is not sweet if you don't try new things, take risk'.
'Risk brings the thrill!' He thought.
