"Thanks for the help, my friend!" He Zhenghao laughed and bowed his hands, returning with Gao Yuan in tow.
Watching their retreating backs, Li Fan felt a strange emotion.
"In just one year, they've been corrupted to this extent..."
"Not too long ago, these two had speculated that I was the Sovereign Immortal who lost his cultivation, hoping to ride on my coattails for a promising outlook."
"Now they're even daring to lie to my face."
A glint of cold light flashed in Li Fan's eyes.
After all, he was the one who instigated the Battle of Heavenly Spirit State.
He had anticipated that some of the cultivators involved in the fundraising plan would fall in the battle.
However, he never actively brought this matter up with He Zhenghao.
He did this to see what He Zhenghao would do when faced with unclaimed principal funds.
And the result...
"Indeed, human hearts cannot withstand trials."
