Chapter 310 - Message (1/2)

Hao Xuan sighed looking at the 3.5 meters tall Scorpion King standing in front of him.

”Kill me!” he repeated.

Hao Xuan felt a headache coming on. This conversation had been going on for over half an hour and yet they kept coming back to the same thing.

”I told you, that's not going to happen,” Hao Xuan replied while rubbing his temples.

”Then release me!” the Scorpion King said stubbornly.

Ever since he regained consciousness and realized he was now under Hao Xuan's control, he had been pestering him to either kill him or free him. There was no middle ground and even though Hao Xuan tried to reason with him, he would always respond with the same thing.

”'ENOUGH! Do not say that again, EVER!'” in his anger Hao Xuan used the power of the constitution and ordered him.

Scorpion King opened his mouth to speak but his tongue wouldn't move. His body was not listening to him and no matter how hard he tried he could do nothing about it other than look at Hao Xuan with disgust and fury.

Hao Xuan simply looked away and waved his hand, ”Go away unless you want to be called back to the Mind Palace.”

The Scorpion King hesitated and after a few seconds of contemplation, walked out of the room with lowered shoulders. This once feared King of Beasts was now at the mercy of a lowly human.

Fortis popped out of Hao Xuan's hair and looked at the Scorpion King walk away plaintively.

”Booo~”

He stuck his tongue out and made funny faces at him while still hiding on top of Hao Xuan's head. For some reason he didn't get along with the Scorpion King and they would always end up fighting.

The only problem was that neither of them could really harm the other one since Forti's body was damn near indestructible and would heal instantly even if it was damaged, while the Scorpion King was too strong for Fortis to 'deal' with.

Fortis would come up to Hao Xuan and make sad faces and tell on the Scorpion King, several times before he did anything. Hao Xuan reached above his head and grabbed Fortis who was caught off guard and had his tongue still halfway out.

”Alright alright, that's enough. I told you to stop fighting with him,” Hao Xuan spoke in a low voice, almost pleadingly.

Fortis freed himself from his grasp and ran halfway out the door and looked back, ”NO!” he shouted before scurrying out of Hao Xuan's sight.

A vein bulged on Hao Xuan's forehead as he mumbled with gritted teeth, ”I swear to god, one day...”

”One day what?”

Xu Qing's voice came from outside and she appeared on his doorstep a few seconds later with a tray in her hand. She was dressed in a blue hanfu that accentuated her natural curves.

It wasn't very tight but had sashes placed around the waist and arms which brought the whole thing together. With her long black hair and snow white skin, Hao Xuan almost fell into a trance as soon as he saw her.
