"If I defeat you, you shall pay with your life and atone for your crimes!" Xing Hu raised his sword and pointed at the man as he spoke.
"Alright," the man smiled faintly, then changed his tone and said, "But if I defeat you, you shall withdraw and leave my matters alone. How about that?"
"It's a deal!" Xing Hu gritted his teeth and nodded fiercely.
"Manor Lord, may I request you to bear witness." The man turned to Anxiang Zheng as he spoke.
"Hmph..." Anxiang Zheng let out a cold snort but remained silent.
He knew that he had already fallen into the trap set by the other party. Even if he killed the man now, it would be of no use, as his subordinates had scattered, and his secrets would be exposed sooner or later. It was better to hear what the man intended to do.
"Let us begin then." The man said confidently.
"Wait. Before we start, declare your name. My sword does not cut down nameless ghosts." Xing Hu said.
