"I don't want to kill you. Come back with me and stand trial."
The red-clad man's androgynous voice turned into that of an elderly man.
His red cloak snapped in the wind.
A great battle was about to begin.
"Trial? You mean a fucking frame-up?" Hi Dog cut straight to the truth. "Going to use us to threaten Brother Tiger?"
The people Little White Tiger cared about most in his life were Xiao Yuan and this band of brothers.
If Hi Dog and the other two were brought before the tribunal, Old Eighth and Old Ninth really would submit to Seventh Master.
The three brothers exchanged glances and laughed boldly.
"Old bastard, either you kill us today, or we take you down with us. Don't even think about taking us alive." Hi Dog stripped off his shirt, baring his torso for battle.
Beside him, Bone and Xiao Feng also took off their clothes and wrapped them around their weapons, ready to fight to the death.
The man gave a mocking smile. "Take me down with you? Old Ninth might have the right to say that. You... aren't quite there yet."
"We'll find out when we try."
Hi Dog attacked first.
Opening Fifteen Shots.
White Garment True Inheritance.
Boom!
Flames filled the sky, taking the form of a savage beast as they lunged at the red-clad man.
"Decent power. A little lacking in speed."
The red-clad man offered his unhurried appraisal like an elder.
Then he pressed two fingers together and casually pointed.
In the blink of an eye, the swirling snow gathered before him, forming a long, handleless blade.
"Break."
A low shout rang out.
The blade of wind and snow swept up the meter-thick layer of ice on the ground and cleaved through Hi Dog's flames with crushing force.
