"Even if she didn't say so, I would have done it," Zhe Bu said, staring straight at Li Qingming, "but what about you? Why insist on torturing a defenseless civilian, even if she's guilty?"
After that, neither spoke, just quietly looking at each other, like two beasts meeting in a narrow alley.
A moment later, Li Qingming finally let out a sigh of relief.
"If it weren't for Zhou Yaxuan, I assure you, you would already be dead, Zhe Bu.
"You have two choices now.
"First, take Xu Meijia and scram to the north to your own hideout to fend for yourself. We'll settle our scores after the Secret Realm is over.
"Second, if you're thinking about going to my camp, then you'll die right now."
Zhe Bu whispered, "You know my strength, Li Qingming. You have no chance of winning, but I didn't plan on going to any camp anyway. I'm going to continue searching the northern shore for Watanabe Haruka and Zhou Yaxuan."
