Back at the villa, Lu Chengwen felt sore all over.
Long Aotian looked at Lu Chengwen. "Cheng Wen, that Medicine Elder... he seemed like a decent person. He offered you the Great Heaven Returning Pill, so why didn't you take it?"
Lu Chengwen looked at him. "His disciple's grandson hurt my women. Sooner or later, I'll fight him to the death. What would I want with his pill?"
Long Aotian sighed. "He's one of the Five Old Men. You have to give him that much face."
Lu Chengwen felt a surge of disgust.
"I can't use my subordinates' blood and lives to win face for myself."
Long Aotian said, "For this sort of thing, you need broad vision and a bigger perspective! Xue Ning and Xiao Hua were seriously injured, yes, but Medicine Elder treated them. You can make him owe you a favor—how worthwhile is that? Of all the senior experts we've met so far, Medicine Elder is the most normal and the most understanding of human relationships! His strength is beyond question too. A person like him can only be an ally or a friend. He must never become an enemy!"
Lu Chengwen looked at Long Aotian and sighed inwardly.
Actually, Long Aotian was right.
That was how important people viewed things.
At all times, they had to remain rational, calm, and practical, clearly weighing the gains and losses.
But whenever he thought of Zhuge Xiaohua and Hua Xuening throwing themselves into danger for him, whenever he remembered their delicate bodies pierced by swords and bleeding profusely, Lu Chengwen just couldn't get past it!
He just couldn't!
Liu Bo! Don't let me run into you again. If I see you again, I'll definitely kill you!
Luo Shiyin stood behind Lu Chengwen, deeply moved.
This was my man!
