Chapter 0888: Greed Leads to Death
"I'm not interested." As soon as Shi Yuxi finished speaking, Qi Tian briskly retorted, "My ties with Haishan City have ended; it's time for me to leave. If the Commander isn't trying to forcibly make me stay, please step aside and do not hinder my departure."
The expression on Shi Yuxi's face immediately darkened. As the Commander of Haishan City and one of the highest-ranking individuals in the Cultivation World of Haishan City, no one dared to disrespect him. Qi Tian's public refusal was a severe affront to him.
Without needing instructions from Shi Yuxi, the Nascent Soul Masters standing next to him all seemed ready for combat, poised to strike at a moment's slight indication from Shi Yuxi.
Qi Tian seemed unaffected by the shifting atmosphere. He simply stroked Huo Yunbiao's fluffy head. Huo Yunbiao squinted, rubbing his head against Qi Tian's palm, clearly enjoying the attention.
