Chapter 182 Confusion (2)
The former was somehow understandable. But the latter was utterly… no, unacceptable.
It shattered the bond he had built with Yu Zhangming up until now.
Gu Yangjie swallowed his curses. Even if Ma Yi was marked for death, he didn’t want to show the slightest weakness.
-You only pick the ridiculous things to say.
-Well… I seem to hear distinct fear in your telepathy. Am I mistaken?
Ma Yi revealed a sardonic smirk.
In a situation where they couldn’t see each other’s faces, the two warriors displayed contrasting expressions.
Ma Yi, though the loser, wore the face of a victor. Gu Yangjeok, though the victor, seemed to fear something.
A truth they hadn’t yet confronted.
Gu Yangji was already confused about whether he could even face Yu Zhangming’s face.
It was pure fear.
Soon, Ma Yi’s telepathic voice continued.
-Judging by your reaction earlier, you seem to have experienced the power of Plum Blossom Valley too. Wouldn’t you know better?
-…….
Gu Yangjeok clamped his mouth shut. He felt no desire to speak at that moment.
But Ma-ui, as if peering into his inner thoughts, sneered softly.
-Well, well. For a true master, I suppose I’ve talked too much.
As Ma-ui lifted his chin, the back of his neck was fully exposed.
-Now, kill me.
-…….
-Now that you and Yu Zhangming have gained the power of Plum Blossom Valley, my tragic wish is as good as shattered. There is not a single shred of meaning left in my life.
-You.
Gu Yangjie forced his agitation down, drawing a powerful voice from deep within his chest.
