Du Ke's face had darkened so much it looked ready to drip water.
The spot where the stick had struck burned with pain. Although it had caused no real injury, the humiliation was immense, sending rage surging through him.
"Getting desperate?"
Yi Si gave a sinister grin.
"I'm teaching you the Prayer Association's rules, and helping you understand how to live on Blue Star. This isn't your hometown, Huai County. No one here will indulge you."

"The Prayer Association never considers the consequences!"
Damn it!
