But what would that change?
Even if he had been subjected to endless pressure, he couldn't just go and settle accounts with Xiang Qiyan, could he?
The things he had done before, even if Xiang Qiyan had an inkling, he couldn't admit to them; otherwise, it would be a one-way road to death.
Now he was out of options. The remaining subordinates of the Liushang Sect had been causing him trouble, demanding he compensate them with large sums of money. Moreover, those he had bullied before were constantly troubling him now that he had lost Xiang Qiyan's protection.
His only choice was to try his luck in the Flame Mountain Range, hoping to come across some valuable treasures that would help him escape his present predicament.
However, things were not as simple as he imagined. If there was someone among those entering the Flame Mountain Range who was from Xiang Qiyan's side, he would not have such an easy time.
