The youth gritted his teeth, his face ashen. He knew clearly in his heart. 'No matter how I get my revenge later, today's defeat... is total and complete.'
"And what about these lackeys of yours?" Xu Luo asked with a grin.
"They... of course, were trying to save me, so they all fell off the cliff. They're a bunch of loyal servants!" The intense pain wracking the youth's body, coupled with a sense of shame he had never felt before, made him wish he could just faint on the spot.
