Suspicion

With DeathLingers only having a little bit of health points left, completely unable to resist after getting severely weakened by Xu Feng's Aura of Fear, he could only glance at Veronica. 

"You can kill me, but that should be as far as you can go." DeathLingers said weakly, advising Veronica to ponder her actions very carefully. 

What he meant was that the incident here should end with his death and no more. Having been discovered as a rat and failed his mission, death was already expected. 

Thus, the Eternal Guild wouldn't do anything else. 

However, if they continued further and provoked the Eternal Guild, DeathLingers could imagine what his guild would do in retaliation. 

"Look at you, still having the energy to advise our Guild Commander's friend?" Zhao Kai laughed chillingly as he nearly wanted to stomp on DeathLingers' face, but refrained.
