Just as Vigil gathered himself to retaliate, Yu Xi was pulled back. Jian Ci stepped forward, his fury radiating like a storm. His psychic energy surged, and for a moment it seemed he would escalate the fight beyond control. If Yu Xi hadn't restrained him, Jian Ci would have bashed Vigil's skull in without hesitation.
As Jian Ci dragged Yu Xi away, Vigil staggered to his feet, his voice dripping venom. "Who would have thought the tenth prince was a fucking coward."
The words hung in the air, sharp and poisonous. Jian Ci spun around, his fury boiling over, psychic power surging from him like a storm breaking free of its cage. The air itself seemed to tremble, and Yu Xi's communicator immediately issued a sharp warning, Jian Ci was stepping into dangerous territory regarding his condition.
Jian Ci smirked, his voice cutting through the tension. "You are only talking shit because you are all the way over there."
