Making sure he had not vanished from before her eyes once again.
Only after a moment did she speak again.
"It's good that you're back."
Those four simple words seemed to lift all the weight from her heart.
Ye Lingling also gently released him and looked up at Liu Bai.
"We can't just let this matter go!"
Dugu Yan said bitterly as well.
"I will make Tang Hao pay the price."
Liu Bai nodded, his expression turning more restrained, though a flash of coldness flickered through his eyes.
"Don't worry."
"I remember this debt perfectly clearly."
"One day, I'll make him repay it personally."
Hearing this, Dugu Yan nodded heavily, her face full of indignation.
"Hmph!"
"How could Tang Hao have the nerve to try to kill you? A Title Douluo attacking you—he has no shame at all!"
The more she spoke, the angrier she became, her emotions instantly ignited.
"When I get back, I'll have Grandpa poison the Clear Sky Sect!"
"Let's poison them all to death!"
At those words, even Ye Lingling was stunned for a moment, yet she did not refute her. They had attacked Liu Bai; they deserved to die.
Liu Bai merely laughed, raising a hand to ruffle Dugu Yan's hair in a natural gesture.
"Don't be impulsive."
"That would be too rash."
Dugu Yan froze and instinctively looked up at him.
Liu Bai's expression was very serious.
"With our current strength, our chances of winning in a direct confrontation with the Clear Sky Sect are not high."
"Tang Hao is no ordinary man, and the Clear Sky Sect is not something just anyone can touch."
"A gentleman takes revenge; there's no need to rush."
"Wait until we are truly strong."
"Not a single one of these debts will escape us."
Dugu Yan fell silent
