Within the Purple Bamboo Forest, Ouye Zi sized up the old fellow before him. "You're scheming against them so openly—can you really bring yourself to do that?"
"Heh heh." Heavenly Mystery Old Man shot back without mercy. "When we repaired the Demon Subduing Great Array before, didn't you old bastard sneak some benefits for yourself as well? Didn't you take that Three Lives Lotus? Since you can get something out of the Qin Family Divine Son, why can't I? Don't get too greedy."
At this moment, Heavenly Mystery Old Man's words truly left Ouye Zi speechless.
In the end, both sides had been in the wrong. Neither was any better than the other, so it could be considered even.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Mystery Tower Master, small as he was, truly had no standing to say much. All he could do was stand there in utter embarrassment.
"Alright, you two, stop arguing. Could you please stop arguing?"
But no one paid him any attention.
Thus, the Purple Bamboo Forest gradually fell silent.
Elsewhere, high in the sky aboard the Flying Divine Boat, Li Changge curled her lips. Her eyes seemed capable of seeing straight into one's heart. "You didn't really believe those two old fellows so easily, did you? Neither of them is a good person. After all, they are people who stood at the pinnacle of their respective fields in the same era. If we trust them too much, we'll be the only ones who suffer in the end."
"But do we have any better choice?"
Seated on the deck, Qin Jiuge felt the fierce wind howling through the sky.
A sharp glint flashed in his dark, shining eyes.
It was plain to see.
It was not as though he knew nothing about this, but what else could he do?
