Duan Shulin was straightforward, not bargaining nor asking Chen Guan whether he'd spare him after regaining the Spirit Pet, which mildly surprised Chen Guan.
"Aren't you afraid I'll kill you after taking the pet?" Chen Guan glanced at Duan Shulin and asked.
"My life is in your hands now, if you want to kill me, I can't escape it, so I'll just have to trust you and gamble on it," Duan Shulin said as he fumbled inside his pocket with one hand to take out a bottle of healing medicine, and painfully swallowed a few pills.
The finger bones of one of his hands were nearly all broken, making him unable to exert force, while the Blood Hand Seal on his chest shook his internal organs, though luckily he was wearing an inner armor, otherwise that single palm strike would have taken his life.
The Blood Hand Seal incorporated both soft and hard force, and the palm force had a certain penetrating effect, which even the inner armor couldn't completely block.
