Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2869 (Two Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty-Nine) Backward

Although the voice was not loud, the coldness in the tone could be felt instantly.

Li Pingrun was so frightened that he stopped and dared not retreat.

However, he felt that the closer Tie Wandao was to him, the more he could feel the murderous intent in Tie Wandao's expression, and the greater the fear in his heart would be.

In order to reduce the fear in his heart, Li Pingrun did not dare to move and could only tilt his head back a little.

Unexpectedly, Tie Wandao moved his face closer.

Li Pingrun leaned his whole body back, silently hoping that Tie Wandao would not come any closer.

Tie Wandao's face was almost touching his, which scared him so much that he continued to lean his body back.

Because he was too nervous, Li Pingrun lost his balance and sat down on the ground.

Tie Wandao then straightened his waist, looked down at Li Pingrun who was sitting on the ground, and said, "Get up!"

"Yes, Patriarch." Li Pingrun said.

After saying that, he supported himself on the ground with his hands and stood up.

Tie Wandao moved closer to him and said, "Don't step back, don't lean back, don't tilt your head back, just stay here and answer me, what do you guess?"

Li Pingrun still wanted to look back, but he really didn't dare to do so. He could only secretly hope that Tie Wandao wouldn't get angry after he said it. Li Pingrun said, "I... guess..."

Having said that, he stopped talking.

He knew that Tie Wandao hadn't spoken loudly for so long because he didn't want the person watching the sinkhole to hear them, so he kept his voice down when he talked to Tie Wandao. Li Pingrun thought that if that was the case, Tie Wandao wouldn't punish him here, otherwise it would definitely attract the attention of the person watching the sinkhole. But he thought of another problem. He thought that Tie Wandao was the clan leader. If he really angered him, the clan leader wouldn't care so much. If the person over there heard the noise here, according to the clan leader's usual style of doing things, it wouldn't be impossible to kill the person watching the sinkhole. Thinking of this, Li Pingrun was a little scared again, but then he changed his mind and thought that Tie Wandao cared about whether it was auspicious to do something near the Seven Stars Zui Ren Pavilion. He felt that even if Tie Wandao was really furious, he would definitely not kill him directly in a place like the Seven Stars Zui Ren Pavilion. So he felt that no matter what he said, at least he wouldn't lose his life immediately.

"Speak!" Tie Wandao said, "Stop wasting time!"

Although his voice was not loud, Tie Wandao spoke with such gritted teeth that Li Pingrun really dared not disobey him.

Li Pingrun said: "I guess... yes!"

Tie Wandao stepped back, looked at Li Pingrun with a more terrifying look, nodded, and said, "You're right!"

Li Pingrun could of course tell that Tie Wandao had something else in mind, but he hoped that Tie Wandao would let him go, so he quickly said, "Thank you, Chief!"

"Why are you thanking me?" Tie Wandao said, "I haven't finished speaking yet. Do you think I, as the clan leader, can take back what I said before?"

Li Pingrun looked at Tie Wandao quietly, feeling that the air was so cold that it could freeze his soul.

"I'm telling you, you're right. As the clan leader, I plan to hire a Taoist priest to work for me, and even though I've said it, I may not necessarily use that Taoist priest!" Tie Wandao said coldly, "If that Taoist priest dies, how can I use him?"
