"Waiting for us?"
Wang Tong gave a contemptuous smile, then flew into a rage and roared, "Lu Ren, you killed my brother! Today, I'll make sure you die without a place to be buried!"

Wang Tong sneered, then turned to Lu Qi. "Guildmaster Lu, I'll give you a chance. Pledge yourself to me, and I'll overlook the fact that you sheltered Lu Ren!"

Elder Feng Lingbo slowly stepped forward, but just as he was about to act, Xue Yijiang cupped his hands. "Elder Feng, my fight with Lu Ren isn't over. I must defeat him today!"
Despite their bitter struggle
