Looking at the headless body before him, Lucian sighed.
He hadn't intended to kill this man, if possible.
After all, his death might bring more trouble than benefit.
Four cultivators had already died by his hand, and if no one offered a reason for their deaths, the Crimson Sky sect would surely send someone to investigate, just as this headless corpse had warned.
But if this person could have concocted any reasonable excuse for the deaths, Lucian wouldn't have found himself in this predicament.
However, once he felt the man's killing intent, he had no choice.
Even though he didn't want to kill him, Lucian lacked any method to control people's minds, forcing them to obey his will.
Perhaps the cultivation world held such techniques, but to current Lucian, those methods were nothing but a distant luxury.
He had seen through the man's deception when he mentioned Jeson.
