Yang Yun's expression changed abruptly.
Xiao Mu's words were merciless, leaving Yang Yun's face even more dishonored.
Xiao Mu continued, "However, since Respected Envoy Yang does not dare to fight me, I won't force it. Let's consider our previous arrangement settled."
"Of course, if Respected Envoy Yang is not convinced, you can come to find me anytime. I, Xiao Mu, am always ready to exchange pointers with Respected Envoy Yang."
"Rest assured, as both members of the Great Tang Ruins lineage, I, Xiao Mu, will only aim to win, and won't harm you, Respected Envoy Yang."
Yang Yun's face turned from pale to flushed. In front of so many subordinates from the Reward and Punishment Hall, Xiao Mu's words left him utterly humiliated.
Nevertheless, he felt a sense of relief knowing that Xiao Mu had let him off the hook and was no longer seeking a duel, sparing him from loss.
"Old Du, let's go!"
Xiao Mu called out to Du Wenzhen and turned to leave.
