733. Refusing a Toast and Inviting Punishment!

"Huo Yongming?! Never heard of him."

Hearing this, Xia Ping looked at the blue-robed old man with great confusion, indicating that this was the first time he had heard the name and the first time he had seen this person.

"I am the head of the Huo Family," the old man, Huo Yongming, said in a deep voice. "My descendant, Huo Gang, was well taken care of by you previously."

Xia Ping raised an eyebrow, recalling the Core Student Huo Gang, and replied, "So that's it. What's the meaning of this call? Are you looking to settle scores?"

"If I wanted to punish you, I would have done it long ago. There is no need to wait until now. To a King Realm expert, those matters of yours are merely trivialities, not worth mentioning," Huo Yongming said indifferently. "However, what you have done today is a truly grave matter."

"You actually dare to publicly auction off Demon Race prodigies. Have you considered the consequences?"

"If you ignite a war between the human race and the Demon Race, you, brat, will be the culprit and will have to bear full responsibility."

His tone was extremely stern, as if Xia Ping were some sort of war criminal.

"And what do you want?" Xia Ping did not reveal his stance.

Huo Yongming put on an act of looking out for Xia Ping's best interests. "Naturally, you should unconditionally release those Demon Race prodigies, then offer an apology to the Demon Race to appease their anger."

"This is beneficial to both sides; there is no need to be at daggers drawn."

He put forward his suggestion.

"Oh, if there's nothing else, I'm hanging up. I have things to do." Upon hearing this, Xia Ping wanted to end the call; he couldn't even be bothered
