The two usually engaged in both overt and covert struggles, vying for territory, but this time when Heart Evil Stream finalized the Hall Master of Profound Water Hall, they didn't choose either of them, but instead parachuted in a newcomer.
This naturally left Jin Pengfei extremely dissatisfied.
Xiong Sihai, however, had a bit more composure than Jin Pengfei and said with a calm smile, "I'll just sit back and watch. The higher-ups have stated their decision, what else can I do? Surely, I can't stage a rebellion?"
When pronouncing the word "rebellion," Xiong Sihai emphasized it heavily, clearly using it to provoke Jin Pengfei.
"Master Xiong, one can eat carelessly, but words cannot be spoken recklessly. I am thoroughly loyal to Heart Evil Stream, never with any second thought."
Jin Pengfei wasn't a fool; he knew well that with the things he had done, had it not been for Heart Evil Stream's protection, he would have died a hundred times over.
