Qi Jingxiao and the others’ expressions were decidedly unsightly, especially when they saw Shang Yun blatantly ignore them.

Qi Jingxiao and the others frowned. The fury building on their chests was on the verge of erupting.
This was just a Divine Son of the Great Yin Divine Race. Bad enough that he’d hurt one of their clansmen in their territories. Now, he was insisting on killing Qi Lingjia right in front of them!
This was taking things way too far. He was trying to walk all over them!
