Sima Lingyun's voice was filled with anger, somewhat disappointed, as if he was dealing with someone who had failed to meet his expectations. Not acting against Lu Tianxing was not only because of Lu Tianxing's identity. More importantly, it was due to the Netherworld Mercenary Corps. Within the Netherworld Mercenary Corps, Lu Tianxing's influence was akin to that of a deity, while the others were like devout followers of the deity. If the deity were to be harmed, the followers would go mad, venting their fury in an uncontrollable frenzy.
If that were all, pure force could totally suppress them, but what Sima Lingyun truly dreaded was Mandala from the Netherworld Mercenary Corps, a master of poison skills whose artistry was divine, and she was a woman at that. A crazed woman is the most terrifying. Should she be provoked, merely unleashing her poison skills in any city and planting lethal toxins could lead to unimaginable consequences.
