"What?" Shock flashed across Xiao Wuji's face as a sliver of killing intent radiated from him.
"I knew it. In all of Celestial Capital Prefecture, who but the Yuchi family would dare kill one of my own?"
Xiao Wuji's face twisted into a ferocious scowl, his eyes instantly turning bloodshot. A boundless killing intent surged forth like a vast ocean.
Ye Xuan had no doubt that if Yu Chi Bugong hadn't already left, Xiao Wuji would have sought him out for a fight to the death.
"Patriarch Xiao, what do you think you're doing?"
Standing to the side, Zuo Yuan sensed Xiao Wuji's imposing aura and immediately moved to block Ye Xuan. "Hmph," he snorted coldly. Ye Xuan and Xiao Wuji had been speaking via voice transmission, so Zuo Yuan assumed the killing intent was directed at Ye Xuan.
But even if it wasn't directed at Ye Xuan, the unintentionally released killing intent still slammed into him, making it hard to breathe.
