The crossbow, though intricate, was not a treasure. To Wu Xinyu, it was inconsequential. All he ever wanted was the Soul-snatching Arrow!
When Lu Junyi mentioned the Soul-snatching Arrow, Wu Xinyu knew he had no chance of reclaiming it. This made him harbor even greater animosity toward Gu Sheng.
There was no way around it; Lu Junyi held a position of immense power and influence. Even if his father were present, he wouldn't dare act recklessly. Naturally, Wu Xinyu couldn't hold Lu Junyi accountable for this. All he wished now was for Lu Junyi to quickly inform his father to come and take him away. He couldn't bear to stay another minute around Gu Sheng!
"Great Elder, this boy nearly killed several of us in the Red Cloud Mountain Range. Letting him off so easily seems far too lenient!" Gu Sheng frowned immediately after the crossbow was returned and spoke sharply.
