The old man suddenly burst into laughter, "Hahaha, young man, you jest. It's just a casual remark, hardly counts as an oath." He wore a smile on his face, but his hands were tucked inside his robe, fumbling for something.
However, his tone became very humble, "Young man, have you come back from Konglao Mountain, perhaps successfully ventured into that mountain and found the Immortal's Treasure?"
Xiao Jie glanced at the Immortal Transformation Gourd in his bag, thinking he indeed found the treasure, but unfortunately, this thing is useless to you.
Of course, there was no need to say that; the old man was clearly setting up an ambush.
Yet, he wasn't afraid of him.
While restoring his energy, he thought about combinations of combat skills, unsure of what skill the old man was using, whether he needed to keep a distance or engage in close combat.
After all, at level 28, it's better to be cautious.
But after seeing a DEBUFF above the old man's head, he wasn't too worried.
