"Hahahaha... Foolish boy! Heaven offers a path you refuse, yet hell has no gate and you insist on breaking in!" Xiao Ming sneered. "Since you're here, don't even think about leaving!"
With that, he took a step forward, and the terrifying power of a seventh-level Great Grandmaster instantly enveloped the area. The bone-chilling killing intent made Lin Qingyun's face pale in terror.
She hurriedly let go of Zhao Dong, pleading, "You have to go! This Xiao Ming is formidable; you're no match for him!"
"No! I came here to protect you, even if it means sacrificing my life!" Zhao Dong said, his eyes firm.
Moved beyond words, tears streamed down Lin Qingyun's face.
"Hah, this kid is a real fool. It's one thing to come out and play the hero, but to dare anger Steward Xiao?"
"Steward Xiao is a top-tier seventh-level Great Grandmaster. Zhao Dong will probably die from a single slap!"
"Heh, one slap? Half a slap is all it'll take!"
