“Preferring money over life”?
Wang Juemie naturally didn’t believe these words.
Tang Jie saying this could only mean that he was confident he could escape Wang Juemie’s pursuit.
Wang Juemie narrowed his eyes and closely inspected Tang Jie as if he was trying to see what sort of trick Tang Jie was hiding. Finally, he nodded and said, “Fine. I can agree to that. But what if I don’t have another Undying Celestial Origin Pill on me?”
Wang Juemie would not carry around extras of this sort of pill unless he was on business.
“Then you can just mail one to me once I get back. I’m sure that you won’t shirk such a small debt,” Tang Jie casually replied.
Wang Juemie exploded in laughter. “And what if you die? Are you thinking about using the incomplete trade to bind me into not attacking you? But that’s true. If I owe you a debt and then kill you, I’ll become known for killing someone to get out of a debt.”
“If I die, you naturally don’t have to give anything,” Tang Jie indifferently said. “And if it’s killing for the sake of wealth, isn’t that what you’re doing right now? Thus, there’s no need to act like you’re someone who highly values your promises. Risking one’s life in battle and keeping one’s promises are two different things. It was exactly because the Stone Gate Sect trusted you too much that it ended up this way.”
Wang Juemie’s face darkened. “Such audacity! You have the guts to mock me? Then do you have the guts to be so certain that I’ll actually pay?”
Tang Jie breezily replied, “The Great Brother of the Seven Absolutions Sect has a certain status to look out for. Resources worth more than one hundred million might be worth relinquishing one’s status and engaging in a little robbery, but eighty thousand spirit coins is not. Moreover, this debt is for the sake of saving your juniors, so the situation and affection are also in play. Thus, in the end, you can say that I trust in your status rather than your character.”
Wang Juemie was left speechless in anger. His face contorted into a smile of wrath as he said, “Good, good, Tang Jie! You’ve truly got a silver tongue. So then, what are you still waiting for? Why haven’t you let them go? So long as you can escape me, once I return to the Seven Absolutions Sect, I’ll order someone to deliver the Undying Celestial Origin Pill to you.”
“What’s the rush?” Tang Jie cast his gaze down at the ruined battlefield on the valley floor and the shattered wooden crates.
Tang Jie said, “I just woke up, so I’m not too clear on the situation. However, from the looks of it, did the Stone Gate Sect not actually bring the goods?”
Yiyi gave a rough summary of what had happened.
In truth, while Tang Jie had been unconscious, he had known what was going on this entire time. This was a result of his one soul shared between two bodies. When he lost control of one body, his soul would not lose consciousness. Instead, the existence of the other body…

Not even Wang Juemie is immune to being scammed. Of course, that was why Tang Jie had to keep Mu Yi quiet…
