Earlier, I carelessly hit him, and if I were to tell him now that I killed four spirit realm elders of the Five Elements Sect, wouldn't that drive him mad?
Xiao Mu didn't want to infuriate Qi Ping; he was a veteran elder of the Alliance and shared common enemies with him. Smiling lightly, Xiao Mu humbly said, "Elder Qi and Elder Liu's prowess during the attack on the members of the Five Elements Sect was truly impressive."
"Lad, stop with the flattery. I'm asking you, how many did you kill?" Qi Ping asked, displeased.
"Well..."
Xiao Mu hesitated, unsure how to respond.
"I'm asking you, how many did you kill? Speak up."
Qi Ping pressed, his voice rising in anger.
"This... one or two, perhaps." Xiao Mu replied helplessly.
"One or two?"
Qi Ping's tone faltered, discontent palpable, "Was it one or two, Xiao Mu? Do you not even know how many you killed?"
"Well, one."
Xiao Mu replied helplessly, deciding to preserve the elder's dignity.
