Bai Jinhan and Nelson gave in. Qingtian froze for a moment at the sight before speaking coldly.
"Exclusive Poison... was this developed by you?"
"Have I been giving you too much face?" Qu Jianlei snorted and retorted instead of answering. "Are you sure you want to become our enemy?"
His impression of Qingtian was much the same as his impression of Chiyang. He did not want to make a move against him, but if the man could not read the situation, then killing him was no big deal.
This fellow should have known what had happened to Chiyang. If he still wanted to put on airs, then he simply did not care about his own life.
Just as Qu Jianlei had expected, Qingtian's reaction at that moment really had been intended to preserve his dignity.
It was not that he deliberately wanted to act high and mighty. He had been a Guardian Supreme for too long, and some reactions had become instinctive.
—If even a Guardian Supreme's knees went weak at every turn, would anyone still respect this planet? But after hearing Qu Jianlei's words, Qingtian finally came to his senses: My attitude is wrong! Leaving aside everything else, an opponent who had killed both Silver Bear and Cold Face, two Supremes, in an instant was not someone he could confront by force.
More importantly... there was another crucial point: the other side's team had at least one more Supreme! What did his side have? Two Supremes had been knocked unconscious, while the other two were clearly planning to stand aside. At present, he was the only one still holding on! There truly could be no more hesitation now!
Qingtian answered in a deep voice, "I am responsible for guarding this planet and have no intention of becoming your enemy.
