With a grim expression, the Lord of Xuanyuan Clan locked his icy gaze on Gu Lan, clearly ready to make his move. Seeing this, Gu Lan's expression remained cold as he took a step back.
"If the Lord of Xuanyuan Clan dares to act, don't hold back. Kill the young lord directly!" Gu Lan declared, his tone sharp and unyielding.
If it came down to mutual destruction, he didn't believe the Lord of Xuanyuan Clan would gamble with the life of his own young lord.
The moment his words fell, Xue Lengyan immediately grabbed the young lord by the throat. With a slight squeeze, the young lord's face turned bright red from lack of air.
This time, Xue Lengyan didn't hold back her strength; instead, her grip tightened further.
"Lord of Xuanyuan Clan, think carefully. If I exert just a bit more force, he will die!" Xue Lengyan warned, her tone calm but menacing.
