The Saint of the City Dragon had no choice but to concede at this moment.
Having been rampant in the Southern Cosmic Sea for so many years, he had seen a lot, and following his elder brother, he had encountered many true experts and witnessed the fall of many powerful beings.
Some of the once-renowned strong figures in the cosmic sea perished in a manner that was just as disheveled and tragic, lacking any dignity.
Yet at this moment, Qin Chen’s gaze was indifferent to everything, instilling fear and trepidation in him.
“Brother Qin, with your prowess, my elder brother will surely admire and appreciate you greatly. If Brother Qin is willing, I would like to recommend you to my brother to join our Black Dragon Society as a guest elder. What do you think, Brother Qin?” The Saint of the City Dragon continued to plead anxiously.
He dared not gamble!
He didn’t even dare to directly threaten Qin Chen, instead subtly reminding him of his elder brother's identity as the ancestor of the Black Dragon Society.
After all, having been part of such a dark force for so long, he had grown accustomed to seeing some madmen. Many people within the Black Dragon Society acted without restraint, killing on a whim!
Background? Who cares about your background; it only matters if it can be useful; if not, it’s just worthless trash!
Moreover, the Saint of the City Dragon had previously inquired at the Treasure Tower and learned that Qin Chen’s origins were unclear, and he might not even be from the Southern Cosmic Sea. If they killed him in Southern Origin City and he vanished back into the cosmic sea, who would take revenge for him?
“Is the mighty Saint of the Black Dragon Society so humble? This emperor preferred your earlier arrogant demeanor.” Qin Chen squeezed the heart of the great emperor, applying slight pressure, causing the Saint of the City Dragon to instinctively tighten his legs and tremble.
“Brother Qin, you jest. Arrogance depends on who one faces; in front of you, how could I possibly be arrogant.”
The Saint of the City Dragon forced a smile but felt both terrified and furious inside.
If he could, he would love to slice Qin Chen into a thousand pieces.
But there was no way; his life was in someone else's hands. He could only concede, behaving as meek as a quail, not even daring to entertain thoughts of revenge.
After all, such a master could see into the hearts of others. If the other party had any means to glimpse his inner thoughts, fearing he would be discovered thinking about letting his elder brother take revenge, he would likely not be able to survive.
He could only pretend to yield, waiting for the right moment to plan his revenge.
“Brother Qin, the Saint of the City Dragon speaks well; the ancestor of the Black Dragon Society enjoys gathering talents from the cosmic sea, and they are wealthy. If Brother Qin could serve as a guest elder in the Black Dragon Society, the salary would surely be substantial, which is quite commendable.”
Mo Yun Que sensed something was off and hurriedly smiled, “Now that Brother Qin has displayed the Saint of the City Dragon’s heart of the great emperor, it could be considered a mild punishment. I believe the Saint of the City Dragon has already realized that his previous actions were wrong. If Brother Qin is still unsatisfied, why not allow the Saint of the City Dragon to offer a price to redeem his heart of the great emperor? That would also serve as a stern punishment.”
The Mo Yun Noble Family wished to let the Saint of the City Dragon suffer a great loss in Southern Origin City, but they did not dare let him face true danger, as such consequences were beyond what Southern Origin City could handle.
“Redeem the heart of the great emperor?”
The Saint of the City Dragon was taken aback, quickly recalling the information he had gathered from the Treasure Tower; it seemed that this person had a penchant for extracting hearts and then making the other party redeem them.
“Yes, yes, how did I forget this?”
