"You mean the Emperor Lord's Daughter was worthy of respect?" Shi Zhanti understood.
Hua Yunfei nodded lightly.
If not for their opposing positions, Xia Qiuer felt like someone who could be treated as a true friend. She was not an evil person.
"I was wondering what happened. So you were pulling such a long face over this? I thought using underhanded tricks on a woman had blocked your Dao heart."
Shi Zhanti let out a sigh of relief.
He feared Hua Yunfei had truly developed a problem. Otherwise, no one would record the collector's editions for him, and no one would steal red bodices for him anymore. What a pity that would be.
He aspired to collect seven bodices!
"Would I fail to see past such a trivial matter? Could I still be considered a Daoyuan Peak successor if I did?"
Hua Yunfei said, "For cultivators of the cowardly path, plotting in the shadows is commonplace. Or rather, that is the normal method of dealing with enemies."
"I'm rather lazy. Risking my life and fighting to the death are not things I enjoy doing."
Though his talent defied the heavens and he rarely encountered an opponent in the same realm, under normal circumstances, he never claimed to be invincible within his realm, nor did he ever think so in his heart.
Whenever he made harsh declarations, it was usually because someone had provoked him and triggered his hidden pride.

"Ah!"
Shi Zhanti clutched his stone head and screamed miserably, rolling about
