The Sword Saint snapped out of his thoughts and asked flatly, "Was it you who suggested that I should take refuge at the Demon Eye Base?"
Qin Shou nodded, smiling without saying a word.
"And was it also you who secretly orchestrated everything behind the scenes when I was being senselessly hunted down by the Demon Sect?" The Sword Saint's face darkened.
Qin Shou hurriedly shook his head and explained, "Senior Sword Saint, you can't blame me for that. At the time, I only wanted you to see the true nature of the Demon Sect as it stands today. It was never my intention to put your life in harm's way. My nature is very pure—Earth people can attest to that."
"You..."
The Sword Saint's beard bristled with anger, and he stared daggers at Qin Shou, very much tempted to slap the young man to death.
