The Ghost Child Clan patrol, which had been braced for a powerful enemy, finally let out a breath of relief.
But remembering the fright the newcomer had given them, the lead guard could not help frowning and offering a quiet reminder.
"Elder Chen, you are an honored guest of our clan chief. If you have business with the Ghost Child Clan, you need only announce yourself. There is no need to go to such trouble."
"Hmm? Are you blaming this old man?"
Hearing the reproach in the guard's words, Luo Yi's relaxed brow tightened. Terrifying pressure erupted from his body.
"We wouldn't dare!"
Only then did the patrol captain remember Xuantian Tower's overbearing ways. He dropped to his knees and begged for mercy.
"Please spare me, Senior! I lost my head for a moment. Please don't hold it against me!"
"Xuantian Tower's authority brooks no challenge. Die!"
Luo Yi was acting as an inner elder of Xuantian Tower. He had no reason to fear making a scene.
Besides, these demons had ruined his plan to study the formation in secret. He might as well turn them into Energy Points for his system Panel.
Otherwise, once he and the Ghost Child Clan's Heavenly Demon ancestor openly fell out, the ancestor could use this prepared formation against him.
Or, if he was forced to flee, the ancestor could activate it to slow his escape. That would be dangerous.
"Senior, please don't!"
"We know we were wrong! Please spare us!"
Hearing the anger in Elder Chen's voice, the Ghost Child Clan guards dropped to their knees without hesitation and kowtowed like pestles pounding garlic.
Unfortunately for them.
Had they met the real Elder Chen of Xuantian Tower, he might have seen how earnestly they admitted their fault.
For the sake of his relationship
