When Yuan Lie returned from the battlefield, his armor was dripping with thick, pungent blood, and his body was covered in slash wounds; but not a trace of weakness or fatigue showed on him. On the contrary, he seemed more vivacious and fierce, like a young man.

He would either mock or curse at them a few times.
