Chapter 734 How Old Are You This Year?

"Hehe, of course I'm not!"

John had no words in response and could only return a cold laugh. His gaze fixed on Sheila, watching for any explanation she might offer.

A glint flickered in Sheila's eyes as she stated. "Actually, there was something slightly off about what Mr. Lopez just said."

"What was it?"

"Somebody survived the killing contest."

"And died in the next one," John couldn't help but retort sarcastically.

Frowning slightly, Sheila shook her head and explained, "No, that person is still alive and well. In fact, he even became a member of our Gu Sect."

John's face showed surprise as he asked, "How did that happen?"

Giving John an odd look, Sheila spoke in a complex tone. "The women of our Gu Sect are not as heartless as Mr. Lopez imagines.

Over time, some develop genuine feelings. It's a rare occurrence, but it does happen."
