ALL NOVEL Chapter 8.2: Does He Have a Death Wish?
This news wasn’t a secret to him; he had known since this afternoon.
However, what the disciple said next made his smile fade.
“You haven’t seen it, but at the foot of Zichen Peak, Senior Brother Li Xun fought eight opponents effortlessly. To protect a junior brother named Ye Han, he injured all eight with a single strike, cutting off one hand from each! And guess who was among them? The notorious Bai Shaowei! If it weren’t for Senior Brother Li Xun’s mercy, Bai Shaowei would probably be dead now!” The disciple gesticulated animatedly as he spoke, making it easy for the listeners to imagine the scene.
“Bai Shaowei isn’t just anybody. He has an inner sect disciple backing him. Wasn’t it reckless of Senior Brother Li Xun to cut off his hand? What if Bai Shaowei seeks revenge?” someone said worriedly.
“He wouldn’t dare!” The earlier disciple retorted loudly. “Senior Brother Li Xun is about to become an inner sect disciple. Would Bai Shaowei dare to retaliate? He’d have to have a death wish.”
“But… Bai Shaowei’s backer is a veteran inner sect disciple. Even though Senior Brother Li Xun is talented, he just broke through to the Qi Condensation Realm. If Bai Shaowei informs his backer, Senior Brother Li Xun might…”
He trailed off, but everyone understood what he meant.
Even if Bai Shaowei’s backer couldn’t deal with Li Xun directly, he could still make life difficult for him.
“Bai Shaowei, huh?” Not far away, Lu Changhe’s expression grew cold.
He knew Bai Shaowei, who had joined the Profound Sun Sect with him four years ago.
Bai Shaowei wasn’t particularly talented and was even less so than Lu Changhe.
His strength came from robbing other outer sect disciples of their spirit stones and currying favor with inner sect members.
Over the years, he had grown more unscrupulous.
‘If I remember correctly, Bai Shaowei is vengeful and ruthless… What these people are saying isn’t entirely unfounded,’ Lu Changhe thought, his eyes narrowing.
He turned away from Li Xun’s residence and stepped into the darkness.
‘Bai Shaowei, provoking Senior Brother Li Xun will be the biggest mistake of your life!’
