Chapter 1232: Number One Below Half Sage
“Not bad. I thought you wouldn’t disappoint me.”
On Cloud Hue Pass, Taba Xuanwu looked down on Ye Qing and said approvingly.
Taba Xuanwu wasn’t speaking loudly, but his rough voice was naturally imposing and domineering. Such was it that it shattered the whistling of the wind.
“Hahaha. I couldn’t possibly disappoint someone who treats me with such respect, could I?”
Ye Qing was laughing as well, but his laughter was full of scorn and ridicule.
“Hahaha!”
Taba Xuanwu did not get angry, however. Instead, he let out a guffaw before saying, “I’m not just referring to how easily you handled my ‘Nine Falling Sun Arrows’, you know. I’m also glad that you didn’t just abandon the innocent people to their fates!”
“Heh. Innocent people, you say?” Ye Qing said ridiculingly. “I did not realize such a word exists in your dictionary, general.”
“Hahaha! In my eyes, everyone who obeys the law and keeps the order are innocent people.”
Taba Xuanwu laughed. “The tens of thousands of people living in Cloud Hue Pass are innocent, and so are the thousands and thousands of merchants beyond its walls.”
“If that is true, then why did you drag innocents into our battle?” Ye Qing asked.
