As Elias's voice trailed off, Li Muhhan's cold laugh broke the silence.
A clear sense of distrust showed in his eyes, as if to say that Elias's proposal was nothing more than another carefully plotted conspiracy.
Of course, Li Muhhan's distrust of Elias stemmed largely from Rhea's simulations.
In that simulated world, Elias's method of killing Xia Yue was brutally cruel, and the terrifying part was that this was entirely something he could pull off in reality.
Li Muhhan's ultimate taboos were two things: his adoptive parents and Xia Yue.
Therefore, he had long since made up his mind that even if Xia Yue were to eventually forgive Elias, he himself would never reconcile with him.
"Li Muhhan, I know you have your doubts about me. After all, in your heart, I am just a beast that devours its own young. But please believe me, my purpose is not to destroy, but to create."
Elias's voice also turned serious.
Taiyin Xingjun quietly observed Elias, her heart filled with contradiction.
On the one hand, she knew that Elias's power could indeed help the beings of the Lunar Palace, since after all, he was the master of this place.
But on the other hand, from the attitudes of Li Muhhan, Lin Ze, and the others toward him, as well as the restraint rings worn on Elias's limbs and neck, she knew that Elias's past was far from honorable, and his proposal likely harbored unknown motives.
