"Misunderstanding! It's really a misunderstanding!"
In just a flash, Night Spirit Demon Venerable reacted, squeezing out a smile and argued: "I've always admired Li Shang Sword Venerable. This time, I'm merely here to see if there's anything I can help with, with absolutely no intention of being your enemy."
Whether the truth or lies mattered not; face mattered even less. What was important was expressing the unwillingness to be against Qu Lishang.
Moreover, regardless of whether Night Spirit Demon Venerable truly wished to kill Qu Lishang, at least he hadn't actually made a move, which made him completely different from Cyan Robe Demon Venerable, providing leeway to evade.
"The Demon Venerable didn't say this before."
Standing behind Qu Lishang, Wang Junze suddenly interrupted: "I didn't expect the Demon Venerable to have such a deep scheme, even dissolving the blood covenants on Lin Qiushui and Liu Daoyu. I'm still alive... doesn't that disappointed you?"
"..."
