Seeing Xie Tian acquire nine treasures of the Immortal Palace, Li Jian felt as uncomfortable as if he was being roasted over a fire.
Even though Xie Tian had lost the chance to cultivate Inner Qi and thus lost the qualifications to compete with him, Xie Tian's eye-catching performance in the trials over the past half-month still filled him with immense resentment.
Yet even Li Jian himself could not admit that his nervousness was wholly due to the fear that Xie Tian might truly find a way to resurrect in a bloodbath, even if the likelihood of that was almost zero.
"We can't let him continue to be arrogant, nor give him another chance!"
Li Jian fully recognized that anything could happen with Xie Tian, especially with the presence of the Immortal Palace's sage. If he continued to perform outstandingly, and the sage took interest in Xie Tian over himself, that would be an unthinkable disaster.
