Chapter 822: Vol V Chapter 182

“So… is it considered complete?”

“Somewhat.”

“But you’re still unable to control it fully?”

“I’m having a hard time. It’s not something that can be done in 10 or 20 years. As long as it’s in your possession and safe, I’m not worried.”

“But I am!”

“Why are you worried? I’m young, and I’m relaxed, you’re already so old, what’s there to be afraid of?”

“I’m afraid that I’d be swallowed whole. What if I die?”

“Come to your senses. You’re still a respected leader after all, so you need to maintain some face.”

Sui Xiong sighed deeply and felt frustrated.

This fellow was already so old, and yet he was still being extremely stubborn. What was worse was that he was begging for Sui Xiong to save his life in such a pitiful and lowly way.

Sui Xiong was someone who had little patience for the stubborn and weak. Of course, if the other party were someone disliked or hated, he would not care at all. However, even if the other party was confused like a desperate, lost sheep, he would just give them a quick shove on their way. He wouldn’t stop to pity them.

The Dragon of Chaos did not belong to these categories, though. Although he could not be considered a good person, he still handled matters in life steadfastly no matter what. He was the kind of person who would seek revenge but only in a logical way that did not threaten his own safety or wellbeing. Furthermore, he would do so in a transparent way instead of setting traps or using despicable tricks. Even if one were enemies with him, they would not deny this as well.

More importantly, he often gave “face” to others, causing them to like him in the long term. This was a special tactic by the Dragon of Chaos as those that he had shown face to would always remember him in a positive light. As for the onlookers during such situations, well, they of course admired him even more.

The Dragon of Chaos had also given Sui Xiong “face” before. That was in the past in the Goddess of Harvest’s God Kingdom, where the Dragon of Chaos had helped to rescue his disciples. Despite such a feat, he did not embarrass Sui Xiong and even gathered all the civil construction in the kingdom for Sui Xiong when he needed it later on. At that moment, he had specified that he did not owe anything, and Sui Xiong had been gratified by it.

In that case, now, Sui Xiong knew deep down that he owed the Dragon of Chaos favor in return even if he did not articulate it aloud.

Furthermore, this time he had sought out the Dragon of Chaos to borrow his treasures, and the latter had handled the request calmly.

Towards such charitable people, Sui Xiong took on a softer stance.

In the end, Sui Xiong was unable to convince the Dragon of Chaos and agreed to stay for a few more years. As he had already awoken from the enlightenment treasure’s binds, his alternate body entities in the God Kingdom had also regained consciousness. Thus, in this sort of situation, his several forms were enough to settle the issue. In any case, he did not have any warring situation to settle as well.

With a lazy yawn and stretch, the green jellyfish that was sprawled across the conference desk like a decorative object slowly rose up and even uttered two lines of Chinese poetry.

“Who knows big dreams? I know myself in my life.”
