CRACK—
A clear cracking sound emanated from the knee of Ah Li's kneeling leg due to his resistance.
Hua Zhuo hadn't held back much. Considering Ah Li could resist to this extent, he was indeed a talented Spirit Card Master.
Hua Zhuo seemed to have thought of something and stopped coldly. "In the Jimo Family's territory, laying a hand on an heir? Where did you get such courage? What do you take this place for?"
WHOOSH—
The oppression lifted, and Xie Lingyu also broke free. Her body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground, sweat pouring from her. Ah Li, without a word, still reached out to help Xie Lingyu.
Despite Hua Zhuo treating him this way, he didn't seem to hold a grudge, his eyes flickering with repressed unwillingness as he looked toward Wen Jiang.
Being forced to kneel on one knee before Wen Jiang, an A-level Spirit Card Master, he viewed as a monumental humiliation.
