Whoosh!!
The King's Mark turned into a streak of light and was about to leave.

In truth, he was not particularly angry. To put it plainly, the Sword Spirit Clan was merely a cover for him.
Besides, Gu Qingshan attacking him could not have been better. It had allowed him to eliminate one of the Nine Kings ahead of time.
After dealing with Gu Qingshan, he did not return directly to the
