Chapter 183 Chaos (3)
Seeing this, Ma Yi stroked his chin and twisted one side of his lips.
“That’s strange… If he’s a reincarnated being, shouldn’t he naturally know about Jin Muwol of the Plum Blossom Sect?”
At those words, Gu Yangjeok realized his slip, but quickly put on a sly expression.
“Must I pretend to know?”
“That’s true.”
Ma Yi revealed a thin, serpentine smile. His gaze was sharp, as if he might bare his fangs at the slightest opening.
‘He claims to have given up, but he’s still a troublemaker.’
Gu Yangji’s expression hardened. He didn’t know what Palma thought of Ma Yi, but if he came to rescue him, it would be Huashan Sect who would see blood.
“Finished with your speech?”
When Gu Yangjeok grabbed the binding rope, Ma-ui flinched visibly.
“I’ll stay put. Could you spare me the ropes?”
“If you want a stake driven into your spine, I’ll oblige.”
Ma-ui’s face drained at the words, but Gu Yangjeok remained utterly vigilant.
What kind of man had Ma Yi been up until now?
He was a man who served as a subordinate among monsters like Palma, dreaming of his own ambitions.
Above all, hadn’t he always maintained a blank expression, hiding his true intentions?
Gu Yangji bound Ma Yi’s entire body, tying the knots meticulously. Even so, he searched him thoroughly once more, checking for any hidden talismans.
Only after searching for a long while did Gu Yangjeok rise.
“I’ll come back tomorrow.”
“That’ll be boring.”
