The Lion-man Leader stepped into the treasure vault, his gaze sweeping over the chaotic scene before finally landing on Chen Pingchuan. He had intended to berate them as usual, but his expression changed the instant he saw Chen Pingchuan's face. Damn it, how could I run into a god of death like him? he screamed internally. Weren't they saying he was last seen in Kailing Province?
Terrified, he swallowed the harsh words that were on the tip of his tongue. The Lion-man's arrogant expression vanished, replaced by a meek demeanor. His face broke into a sycophantic grin as he spoke obsequiously, "My apologies, my apologies! I must have come to the wrong place. I'll leave right away!"
With that, the Lion-man turned to leave, not daring to linger for a single moment. The Beastman Guards behind him asked no questions, appearing highly disciplined.
Chen Pingchuan watched the Lion-man Leader's retreating back with an indifferent expression and suddenly said, "Wait a moment."
