Wan Shou noticed it.
Only now.
That Yu Xuan casted no shadow.
The realization struck him hard.
"…Ah," Wan Shou said, his voice shrinking despite himself, sweat seeping from places that should not sweat.
"How about you… let me go?"
Yu Xuan looked at him strangely suspecting that something is wrong, because this demon showed various characters within short span of time.
"Giving up already?" Yu Xuan asked calmly.
"I had no reason to spare you to begin with and then you kindly handed me an additional one."
His gaze hardened.
"Targeting my people, coveting her and now wasting my time."
Wan Shou forced a laugh, sharp and menacing on the surface.
"Hahaha! You think I'll die?" he sneered.
"Then you're greatly mistaken! Are you sure you want to provoke me over some random disciples?!"
His voice boomed, full of false bravado.
But inside.
Very. Very. Different thoughts were racing in his mind.
'Hehe I guess I succeeded.'
