"See, what did I tell you? I pleaded with you earnestly, thinking only of your best interests. I told you not to try anything rash, otherwise, not only would your lifelong reputation be ruined, but you wouldn't even... have control over yourself anymore. And look where we are now!" Xu Luo glared at Gu Zongren with indignation, his tone exasperated, like a mentor disappointed by a failing student.
"You brat!" Gu Zongren was furious. At this moment, he didn't actually harbor much hatred for this Blue-skirted Maiden. No matter how young she appeared, she was a genuine titan. Whether she despised him or ignored him, she had the right to do so.
However, Gu Zongren was filled with deep resentment toward Xu Luo.
He thought, "He's just a greenhorn riding on Hu Wei's coattails! His strength hasn't even reached the Venerable Realm. I could crush him with a single finger!
"If you didn't have a titan by your side, would you dare speak to me like this?"
