However, Wang Tao's appearance left him no choice but to give up.
It was apparent Wang Tao was sent by Bai Li Hong to protect Fang Hui, the City Governor of Mound Hill City.
Although he was confident he could defeat Wang Tao, he was not confident he could kill him. After all, both of them were at the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage. Unless there was a great disparity in their strength, he really could not say he had the confidence to kill him.
Moreover, even if he was confident he could kill Wang Tao, Bai Li Hong would definitely suspect him when he returned and found out that Fang Hui was dead.
Not many people in the Moon Illumination Sect's surrounding districts could kill Wang Tao. It was not hard to figure out it was him.
Killing Wang Tao was completely different from killing Fang Hui. Anybody above the Master Saint Rudiment Stage would be able to kill Fang Hui.
