Chapter 272- The Urge To Kill

“No, I’m nothing like you.”

Li Shen immediately denied Xian's claim in a deadpan tone of voice.

“Don’t deny it brother Shen, I can see it in your eyes. Especially when you snatched my rune, for a split second you thought of how to keep it while saving Goddess Lihua. You almost seem desperate to keep it, to conduct your own research to understand it.”

Xian then wag his finger in front of Li Shen before he continued.

“But brother Shen, that’s 'my' product from 'my' research. You can’t just steal it and learn my secrets without having to go through the struggles I did. That’s a code we don’t break as researchers, shame on you brother Shen.”

Li Shen's expression was neutral neither denying nor confirming Xian’s claim.

“However…”

Xian suddenly paused and smiled at Li Shen.

“I don’t mind telling you brother Shen, what my runes are. You’re curious, right?~”

Xian asked in his drawled tone of voice once again.

Li Shen’s face remained neutral, but Xian chuckled and said.
