"For the good of the sect?"
Li Zizai turned to He Changkong, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes as he demanded, "Does acting for the good of the sect mean treating human lives like weeds? We've been fellow disciples for years. Don't think I don't know what you're plotting! He Changkong, you just want to seize Chen Shan's Calamity Beast and give it to Ye Xuanji!"
He Changkong's expression shifted slightly when Li Zizai openly tore away all pretense.
But he refused to admit it. His face stiffened as he sneered, "Senior Brother, you may eat whatever you please, but you cannot say whatever you please! Everything I've done has been for the future of the Beast Taming Immortal Sect!"
"For the sect's future?"
Li Zizai sneered, his magical power suddenly surging as he declared in a ringing voice, "If you insist on taking Chen Shan's life and seizing his Calamity Beast today, then deal with me too!
"Great Sect Master He, I'm giving you two choices today-either withdraw your order to expel Chen Shan, or expel me from the sect as well! Let's see how long the Beast Taming Immortal Sect can keep its footing in the cultivation world without someone at the Ninth Layer of the Spirit Transformation Realm like me!"
His words exploded like thunder in everyone's ears, instantly trapping He Changkong in a dilemma.
He had never expected Li Zizai to go this far for Chen Shan.
If he truly expelled Li Zizai, the Beast Taming Immortal Sect's strength would be greatly diminished, and the other nine great sects might even seize the opportunity to suppress it. But if he withdrew the order, all his earlier plans would come to nothing.
Then he would have no face to meet Ye Xuanji.
