Wang Suo saw it all clearly. Seeing the One-eyed Taoist's sole eye turn crimson with rage at falling for their trick, as if about to spit fire, he felt a wave of amusement in his heart: *What a foolish Taoist! He originally wanted to provoke Big Brother into losing his composure, but instead, he's the one completely losing his mind. Truly an idiot.* Ah, but now was not the time to let his mind wander. He quickly put on a serious expression.
Although Li Zhuo had a few broken ribs, he was never one to back down from trouble. Seeing the One-eyed Taoist fly into a rage, he taunted triumphantly, "You one-eyed cat, whatever tricks you've got, bring 'em out now. Just watch out that little old me doesn't smash that remaining eye of yours out too."
Mentioning his missing eye was the absolute last straw. As soon as Li Zhuo uttered the words "one-eyed cat," bulging veins throbbed on the Taoist's forehead and his face turned ashen. In a chilling voice, the One-eyed Taoist hissed, "Splendid. Heh, it's been a long time since anyone dared speak to me like that—because everyone who ever did is already dead. I originally intended to play with you a little longer, but I've lost the mood. I'll finish you off right now."
