Lin Xiao couldn't hold back any longer. This wasn't just a discussion about dividing spoils in front of him; the most crucial point was that the division of spoils was about his own hand!
His hand wasn't broken yet.
"How can you call it dividing spoils?" Zhang Wuwei corrected Lin Xiao. "Aren't you making a deal with him? How can a proper transaction use the word 'spoils'? You should understand this better than I do, Dragon King."
"Indeed."
Lin Xiao nodded. At this moment, Lin Xiao clearly realized that these two were not on good terms at all.
From beginning to end, Tianhe Zhenren faced Zhang Wuwei with a hostile attitude. He was certain that if Tianhe Zhenren were Zhang Wuwei's opponent, he would not hesitate to kill Zhang Wuwei.
Unfortunately, he didn't have the ability.
"My suggestion is, you leave now," Tianhe Zhenren stared at Zhang Wuwei, his tone exceptionally solemn. Zhang Wuwei's appearance at this moment, without a doubt, meant that Zhang Wuwei had been paying attention to Lin Xiao all along, especially after he brought Lin Xiao into his domain. Zhang Wuwei couldn't sit still.
"Leave? Of course, there's no problem. I just want to witness your transaction being completed, and by the way, act as a witness to this transaction," Zhang Wuwei's tone was very relaxed. As he spoke, he had already arrived beside Lin Xiao, blocking the space between Tianhe Zhenren and him.
"A witness, indeed."
Tianhe Zhenren sneered. "I don't believe you'd really dare to take it."
"What is there to not dare to take? If you dare to take it, I dare to take it, don't I?" Zhang Wuwei retorted. "Tianhe, you should know these things better than I do."
"Hmph."
Listening to the two bicker in riddles, Lin Xiao felt a bit redundant. He pondered for a moment and tried to speak, "Gentlemen, I've been thinking, I still need to pick up my daughter from school. Why don't you two catch up first? We can discuss this another time."
"I have no objection. The transaction is between you two anyway, and I just wanted to witness it. Next time is fine too, as I've been quite idle lately," Zhang Wuwei chuckled.
Tianhe Zhenren snorted and stared at Zhang Wuwei. "I don't want to catch up with this old man."
At this moment, Tianhe Zhenren seemed more like an ordinary person than the cultivator who, under duress, appeared to negotiate with Lin Xiao in Lin Xiao's eyes.
"Don't be like that. We are all old fellows. We haven't had a good chat in a long time. Why don't we have a good talk, or perhaps, a spar?" Zhang Wuwei immediately said. "Coincidentally, my hands are itching."
"If your hands are itching, just chop them off,"
When this was said, Lin Xiao couldn't help but look at Tianhe Zhenren again. How much animosity could there be to say such a thing so readily? It was evident that Tianhe Zhenren must have been beaten quite badly during their spar back then.
"No, if I really chop them off, then when you make a deal with Lin Xiao, won't I have to use Lin Xiao's entire hand to reattach it to myself?" Zhang Wuwei's smile widened.
"Then, shall I leave first?"
Seeing how happily they were conversing, Lin Xiao asked again, attempting to leave the old Daoist's domain.
The moment he had this thought, he was released from the domain by the old Daoist.
The next second, he was truly gone.
