"If it were me, and I heard someone weaker than me—but with infinite potential—swear a Blood Oath to one day make me pay a hundredfold for what I've done, the first thing I'd do is ensure he could never rise. The most effective way to do that is to target his Cultivation. As long as his Martial Artist Realm stagnates, he'll forever be a dragon stranded in the shallows, unable to stir up any waves."
"This is the Inner Mountain. No one here truly underestimates those weaker than themselves. They... are anything but fools. So, are you sure you want me to turn down this mission? It makes no difference to me. The decision is yours."
"Do you want to risk it? Can you be sure you'll be safe? If it were me, I wouldn't be."
