"Senior Brother, you mustn't!"
Watching Li Shancheng frantically trying to pack his luggage and flee, Master Li gripped his arm tightly. "Senior Brother, we finally made a name for ourselves in Hangcheng. Now we have fame, wealth, and women."
"Besides, you have a temple, and I have a Taoist Temple. This is the life!"
Master Li clenched Li Shancheng's arm. "If we flee like this, we'll have to start from scratch overseas, and we'll have nothing. Besides, there are powerful masters abroad, too. If we run into one, we'll be in the same terrible situation!"
"Why are you being so indecisive?"
Li Shancheng was furious. "No matter what, it's better than being dead! I don't want to stay here and wait to die!"
"Senior Brother, listen to me. We won't die!"
Master Li lowered his voice. "When Brother Hei comes looking for us next month, we'll tell him exactly what happened. We'll say that Qin Lin snatched the items from us, forcibly taking the tribute we had prepared for him."
