Iwagaki clearly harbored immense hostility toward Zhao Chi.
Hearing Xiao Ning's words, Iwagaki said sinisterly, "I'm just afraid Lord Muchang won't be pleased."
"I haven't done anything, so why would he be displeased?" Xiao Ning retorted, annoyed.
Iwagaki fell silent for a moment. "It's mainly the First Madam and Second Madam..."
"Don't mention those two old bitches!" Xiao Ning roared, her eyes bulging with bloodshot rage.
Iwagaki said no more, merely stroking the sword in his hand. Then, he turned to glare at Zhao Chi. "Don't try any tricks, or I'll slice you into 100 pieces."
Zhao Chi considered such threats to be pure bullshit. Without any substantive action to back them up, he didn't take them to heart at all. His goal had already been achieved—and achieved brilliantly at that. It was best to know when to stop for the day; he couldn't push it too far.
