Chapter 742: Token
"You damned heretic, enjoying the company of twin beauties and making everyone jealous. Yet instead of living the good life, you're running off to die in Seven-Kill Hall. Aren’t you afraid those sisters will find a new lover and cheat on you?"
Cui Ji had once been defeated by Qin Sang in front of a crowd and unceremoniously driven off the island. That humiliation had yet to fade from his heart.
Given his temperament, he had wanted revenge even back then.
However, Elder Zhou had warned him in private and applied pressure through the rules of the alliance. Cui Ji knew he was in the wrong and lacked the strength to win, so all he could do was swallow the loss.
What he refused to admit was his fear of Qin Sang.
That bastard's astra possesses a bizarre and terrifying supernatural ability, capable of turning the tide of battle.
Cui Ji had taken a long time to nurse his life-bound astra back to health before its spiritual essence finally recovered.
Now, seeing Qin Sang again, both old and new grudges surged in his heart. He could not help but launch into a cold, sarcastic tirade.
The others immediately grew interested. Their gazes shifted between the two, clearly amused. They hadn’t expected a group of just eight to produce such a pair of enemies. It looked like there would be good drama ahead.
Xiang Yi frowned deeply.
Qin Sang replied coolly, "Before I die, I imagine Daoist Cui will be going ahead to scout the path for me. Once you're in the afterlife, will you still have that sharp tongue?"
Xiang Yi stepped in to stop the conflict, his tone turning cold as he warned, "Whatever grudges you two may have, you must forget them once we enter Seven-Kill Hall. If your infighting disrupts the mission of the merchant alliance, I will hold both of you accountable. Believe me, no matter how powerful your backers are within the alliance, they will not be able to shield you."
