Lv Bai's tone seemed all too natural, almost leaving Blood River Ancestor without a reaction.
"I'm not denying that guy is indeed my friend."
Lv Bai finally emerged from the boundless darkness, adding with a smile, "You used to be part of the Demon Dao, shouldn't you understand that in this life, the most important thing is to sell out your brothers?"
Blood River Ancestor had a look of shock, almost dazed, as if unsure of what to say.
Yet this display made Lv Bai silently raise his guard.
As he pointed out, Blood River Ancestor made his name from the Demon Dao sects in the Cultivation World; being ruthless is standard, living discreetly is common, he wouldn't crumble so easily.
Lv Bai remarked, "The performance was a bit overdone."
Blood River Ancestor suddenly seemed to change personas: "Well, I've been a sect ancestor for too long, I'm a bit rusty, but seeing you is enough."
As he spoke, the space they were in began to distort.
