Chapter 742 Billy (1/2)
”Goldie, halt.” Gao Peng suddenly thought of something.
Could this guy be a watermelon person?
Gao Peng ran his eyes over the second prince in scrutiny.
”Have a seat. Silly, bring a chair for him,” Gao Peng said to Silly.
Silly flew over with its eyes to the side. It brought a grandfather chair for Gao Peng, and tossed a little wooden stool to the second prince, then haughtily flew away.
The second prince wasn't angry. He set the stool into the soil to stabilize it, then sat down and raised his head to look at Gao Peng, who sat before him.
”How did I expose myself?” Gao Peng thought he took great care to conceal his identity, but he was exposed anyway.
The second prince smiled and told Gao Peng exactly what Xin Xing deduced.
Gao Peng sighed, there really are many smart people in this world. His perfect disguise was found out.
”Then why don't you kill me? Aren't our races enemies?” Gao Peng asked with amusement.
”Our ancestors were enemies, but not us,” the second prince said. ”In fact, I really admire your culture. Back then our races learned from each other, even intermarried. Our race still keeps some cultural traces related to yours.”
Gao Peng suddenly thought this second prince's thought process was a lot like a certain race.
Interesting.
”Your thoughts are interesting, unlike those Mutated Tribe,” Gao Peng said with a smile on the grandfather chair.
The collar of Gao Peng's brown trench coat was tied up, covering his jaw.
The second prince looked into Gao Peng's eyes and said, ”For a long time I've been pondering a question: why did us Spirit Race become mortal enemies with the Human Race? Empyrean is so big, we can totally coexist.”
”Right now, our Spirit Race doesn't even cover one-third of Jiutian Shidi's area, and it's definitely not because of territories.”
The second prince spoke at length.
Gao Peng was getting a headache.
I was just being polite, why are you actually discussing this?
I'm not interested at all.
Gao Peng's eyes went blank and stared ahead. That's the expression he takes on whenever he's listening to something he doesn't like.
But in the second prince's eyes, Gao Peng looked cold and unapproachable, like a lone and proud genius.
This made him respect Gao Peng even more.
It's normal for geniuses to have strange mannerisms.
In the end, Gao Peng didn't really listen to anything the second prince said. He must've said some tens of thousands of words. From every word, Gao Peng heard ”alliance.”
If I can become Shengtuo Empire's king, I will form an alliance with you, and we can have a win-win situation.
The second prince's throat felt dry. He didn't know if his emotional narration convinced Gao Peng.
Gao Peng returned a standard expression of approval fitting of humanoid races.
”You want me to help you become king?”
After a moment of shock, the second prince smiled and nodded.
”You could've just said that.” Gao Peng secretly shook his head, These politicians.
Taking an hour to explain something that can be said in one sentence, that's a skill too.
”No problem,” Gao Peng nodded and answered coldly. ”But you must pay a price.”
”What's the price?” The second prince secretly sighed in relief. That was easy, it'll be simple as long as he's willing to talk.
”The price is everything.” Goldie's deep magnetic voice resounded in the second prince's ear.
”Huh?” Little Second blanked, that price is a bit too….
”It's not as great as everything, the price is very small.” Gao Peng landed a kick on Goldie's behind, flashing eight white teeth with a smile.
An hour later, the second prince left with a long face.
He kept this expression all the way to the palace.
Only then did the second prince take off his disguise. He instantly took on an indifferent expression.
