His words were solemn and earnest, not revealing any intent to kill, yet his words seemed to place him above Li Hao.
Li Hao narrowed his eyes. How could he not discern the mind of this Buddha Venerate? These words, seemingly advisory, whether gifting Buddhist Scriptures or discussing his murderous thoughts, all served to provoke him.
He could see through others' strategies, but he had his own character; he disdained beating around the bush and found no need for it.
"You are just trying to make me angry, what does it matter if you join forces!"
Li Hao stated directly.
He knew that once he pushed the Void Saint to the limit, this Buddha Venerate would find a reason to intervene even without a justified cause, and a phrase like "I show mercy in Buddhism, please show mercy," however smooth-spoken, would provide a sufficient pretext for Buddhists to interfere in any matter and to establish a lofty moral high ground for themselves.
