Chapter 913 An eye for an eye (4)

''You... are you Liu Mei?''

The person who had just asked this was an old man in spotless white robes, with a clean-shaven face and neatly combed long white hair that reached all the way to his waist. He had a pair of kind eyes that looked extremely innocent at first glance, but his expression was one of complete disbelief as he stared at the stunningly beautiful young woman in the distance!

Although Liu Mei wasn't wearing the robes of a Holy sect's disciple anymore, the old man only needed a single glance to figure out her identity.

At the same time that his voice rang out, Liu Mei turned her gaze away from the black-robed Elder Ming and glanced at the white-robed old man for a couple of seconds, before a look of realization quickly dawned in her eyes.

''Elder Zhuan?''

Of course, since the white-robed old man had already recognized her, how could Liu Mei not recognize him as well? After all, this was the same Elder responsible for overseeing the final part of their test, when Liu Mei and the others entered the Holy sect for the first time!

Hearing Liu Mei confirm her identity, Zhuan Peng felt his entire body tremble for a brief moment, before a myriad of different emotions began to course through his eyes one after the other!

Noticing Zhuan Peng's reluctance to speak, Elder Ming gradually frowned clearly dissatisfied with the old man's performance, before he continued

''Zhuan Peng, don't tell me you have suddenly changed your mind!? If that's the case, you can go ahead and leave our alliance! I promise I won't stop you! However, I can tell you one thing; I am going to break open this formation, with or without your help! It will only take me a few more days, that's all''

After a brief moment of contemplation, Elder Ming's voice gradually softened as he looked at Liu Mei's distant figure before he continued

''Of course, considering the fact that you seem to have some type of relationship with that girl, I won't be too forceful on this matter either. After all, I understand that we are in the wrong here. I am only asking her to step aside and let us have a look inside the formation. If there really is nothing of value inside, we will naturally take our leave after having a look, and if there truly is some type of treasure hidden within, then we can split it in a fair and just manner. Of course, this is my final concession on this matter. Whether she accepts our terms or not is up to her!''

Although it seemed as if the black-robed Elder Ming had been talking to Zhuan Peng this entire time, his gaze had been completely focused on Liu Mei as he uttered each word!

Clearly, this message was meant to serve both as deterrence, as well as show her that Elder Ming was willing to make certain concessions and avoid truly fighting if they could solve things amiably between them.

Unfortunately for the black-robed Elder Ming, Liu Mei didn't seem the slightest bit intimidated by the fighting prowess of the 6 peak rank 9 Dao Kings from his group! Instead, a cold, murderous glint could be seen in the depths of her eyes as the stunning young woman stared coldly at the black-robed old man along with the rest of those 5 Dao Kings standing behind him, before her gaze gradually nestled on an unassuming middle-aged man standing at the very back of the group.

After a brief moment of silence, a thick, almost palpable burst of killing intent suddenly erupted from her body, as Liu Mei looked at this unassuming middle-aged man and asked coldly

''Are you the one who attacked our formation earlier?''
