The exchange between both parties was swift.
It was laced with probing and vigilance, yet also contained the man's eager urgency, for he truly did not have much time. If he had been alive for several decades or even centuries, he might have been more composed.
But now, he really couldn't afford to.
Therefore, in order to win the trust of this noble family's member, the man revealed quite a few details to prove the truth and reliability of his plan.
"I've said so much, you should believe me by now. My plan got disrupted, and the only way to remedy it is a quick execution," the handsome man urged, "Let's get going."
Song Cheng nodded, then followed with a swift slash of his blade.
The handsome man's expression turned to astonishment and confusion, and then anger.
That expression froze on his face as his head rolled off, gathering dust and mud.
Song Cheng quickly administered a few more strikes to ensure he was truly dead.
What a joke...
