The frost owl tells liu-xiang that he's not going with him to the nine-frost palace. He tells him to stay away from him, and he'll kill him if he doesn't. The fifth-grade guardian martial spirit tells him that the sword strike was dangerous, and that if he had hit him, he wouldn't be able to survive the afterlife. He says that he thinks it's better to kill him now, because he has survived in his aura up to this point, and if he were to die, he'd have no one left to fight. He's going to kill you first, he says.
