When this thought crossed his mind he couldn't wait for Rui Fei's return. He stood up clutching Rui Li's collar and said to Huishe Yue, "Now you know what you have to do. If you do anything stupid I will kill her."
Huishe Yue stared at Rui Li with worry in his eyes. His body was suddenly shrouded by darkness as he transitioned back to his human form.
While he was in the middle of transforming the disgruntled Qilin whose pride had been stepped on by someone of lesser superiority than him was so angered that he engaged the deepest part of his aether summoning as much of his eternal flame as he could.
He didn't want Huishe Yue to even have the chance to defend himself when he strikes. This move would be considered cowardly in Niuq but they weren't in Niuq were they? He wanted to finish off his enemy by any means necessary which included stabbing him in the back.
