Si Qianmo took it from Chi Jiang's hand, his ink-black eyes flashing with a cold gleam. Si Qianmo recognized perfectly what Chi Jiang had handed him.
He first put it away safely, then slightly bowed to Chi Jiang, saying, "Thank you. It's surprising you would give me such a treasure."
As soon as Si Qianmo spoke, Chi Jiang immediately shook his head and said, "You overthink things. I'm only lending it to you; if you return safely, you must give it back to me."
Upon hearing this, Si Qianmo burst out laughing and patted Chi Jiang on the shoulder without saying more. Soon, Si Qianmo flashed away, transforming into a violet light and disappeared from Chi Jiang's sight.
Shortly after Si Qianmo left, another tall figure appeared at the stairway behind Chi Jiang.
"You've dealt with Si Qianmo? Is he really planning to go to the Zique Continent alone?"
The newcomer wore a purple robe, his expression stern, none other than Demon King Yin Xie.
