If he were to die directly at the Qi Family’s hands, it would have a negative impact on their reputation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His earlier attempt at persuasion was precisely because he was wary of this, not wanting to be saddled with infamy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’First, burn the ship and complete the mission...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The masked cultivator’s figure flickered as he moved to stand before the supreme-grade spirit ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ship’s hull was already complete, and it gleamed with a cold, metallic luster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The array system was also eighty to ninety percent complete!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was, for all intents and purposes, almost finished!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What a magnificent spirit ship.
