Elder Xiao's face darkened, and he was seething with rage. He never imagined that after all that talking in circles, the boy was just waiting to spring this on him!
And the most unforgivable part... was that he had only just now realized it!
"Are you... refusing me?" Elder Xiao's eyes narrowed as he stared at Xu Luo. A dangerous aura flickered around him, like a terrifying beast about to pounce on its prey.
Xu Luo wore a smile that seemed utterly sincere, but only those who knew him well could see the unyielding and defiant spirit deep within it.
"Senior, if that's what you think, there's nothing I can do about it. I'm sure that a dignified Elder of the great Jade Balance Sect is an extremely magnanimous man. You would never force someone against their will, much less stoop to the level of a child like me. Am I right?" Xu Luo said with a smile.
"Hmph." Elder Xiao snorted in contempt. He looked at Xu Luo and said flatly, "And what if I insist on doing just that?"
