"Guu Xinglan..."
Watching the Sword Light fade into the distance, Dong Ping sighed.
"When a person's desires are left unchecked, they become truly terrifying. It doesn't just lead to greed and bloodlust, but also breeds delusion and jealousy."
"Brother Zhu, he wouldn't have reacted so strongly if I hadn't stepped in."
"My apologies."
"Don't say that." Zhu Ju shook his head. "This whole affair started because of me. If you hadn't intercepted him, I'm afraid Fellow Daoist Guu wouldn't have let it go so easily."
"If anything, I should be thanking you for your help."
"Heh..." Dong Ping chuckled lightly.
"In any case, Brother Zhu, you should be more careful from now on. Don't go out alone too often. I'm afraid he might actually try to harm you."
Guu Xinglan had made no effort to conceal his killing intent when he left. It wasn't out of the question that he'd act on it.
Zhu Ju nodded slowly.
"Elder."
Down on the merchant ship, Tao Caiwei's voice was filled with excitement.
