Facing that face, Tang Li was still smiling. "Looks like climbing out of the ice coffin, then squeezing into the crew cabin, was pretty hard. Besides, a guy who has basically broken his promise, a coward with Great Lord Level power—hmm, a dumb dog that got itself locked up—what right does he have to put on that tone?"
Regardless of Luo Yuan's reaction, he turned to Tang Zi. "I wouldn't recommend trusting him. But you've already paid in advance, so you go first."
By then, Tang Zi had recovered from the bizarre scene. Her gaze had instead become somewhat clearer. She did not hurry to speak with Luo Yuan, merely staring at her younger brother's face. "You're not surprised at all?"
"By the time you wanted to take Lao Du's corpse away, I'd already finished being surprised." Tang Li took a sip of juice and shook his head. "As for this guy, this nest-stealing trick is one of his usual methods. He was the regional director of the Black Sun Sect for so many years, so naturally he had plenty of tricks up his sleeve. Borrowing the Black Sun and the Blood Pool to transmit a bit of power is nothing unusual... Besides, I still have to say this: you know too little about Extraordinary Power and understand this world's background far too shallowly. It was inevitable that he would trick you."
Tang Zi lowered her eyes. "I never climbed out. And thank you for subjecting my brother to Original Heart Erosion. Truly, thank you."
She rose to her feet and gave a slight bow before turning toward Luo Yuan behind her. "You may speak now."
Luo Yuan kept his gaze on Tang Li's face. "Should he know?"
Tang Zi replied coldly, "I need his help to verify it."
