Snow Tear Cold frowned.
Why is this guy so sycophantic? What is he talking about, it makes no sense at all? I remember when this guy was alive, he still had some character, how did he turn into a completely different person now?
Unable to hold back, he asked, "I say, are you really Mei Shangren?"
The tribulation spirit nodded and bowed, "Yes, yes, it's indeed me, your majesty has a good memory. After all this time, you still remember my lowly name. Your majesty is wise and martial, unparalleled in the world."
Snow Tear Cold said in confusion, "You were already one of the top experts back then. Although you died and became the current tribulation spirit, tribulation spirits can also cultivate. But why have you lost all your backbone? I see your cultivation level is not weak now!"
It's impossible that cultivation could strip away one's backbone...
The tribulation spirit nodded and bowed, flattering, "What is this little bit of meager cultivation worth? How could it compare to your majesty in your eyes? It's not worth mentioning. As for backbone or whatever, I no longer even have bones... What backbone can I have? Moreover, in front of your majesty, is backbone really useful?"
Snow Tear Cold was infuriated. This guy is quite direct. But, even if he has lost his bones, he shouldn't have changed this much. To be able to pin all this on me, that's really something!
"Could it be that you encountered some changes during this period?" Snow Tear Cold recalled what the tribulation spirit said when he first came in and asked, "By the way, why do you call my brother 'little ancestor'?"
The tribulation spirit shivered all over, and his eyes shone with shock and unparalleled amazement.
Little brother?
What?!
It turns out this little ancestor is actually the little brother of Eastern Emperor your majesty?
"Alive ancestor... my dear ancestor..." The tribulation spirit was dazed, "You didn't think once was enough to trap me, and now you want to trap me a second time... You tricked me while alive, and now you're doing it again after death... and even worse than before..."
"Speak, what is going on?" Snow Tear Cold asked.
The tribulation spirit, filled with the thought that death is the greatest sorrow, simply went straight to the point, mumbling, "He came in this morning..."
Snow Tear Cold understood immediately, "That’s nothing, he didn't die at your hands after all."
The tribulation spirit was instantly in tears. He never expected Snow Tear Cold to be so easy to talk to, rising with the thought that 'a man is willing to die for his confidant,' and said, "Your majesty... you are truly wise and clear-sighted, understanding the ways of the world, truly too reasonable..."
Snow Tear Cold was somewhat puzzled, but seeing that it was about time, he said, "Forget it, talking to you now is really too exhausting. You, go stroll around somewhere else. I need to treat my brother's injuries first. This place is still somewhat quiet. I’ll borrow it for a moment and will leave right after."
"Yes, yes, please feel free, please use it, do make yourself at home." The tribulation spirit gratefully bowed and swiftly left, moving as quickly as lightning.
This is great! I never thought your majesty would be such a good person. How did I not notice this before? I even cursed him previously, that was really inappropriate...
But that guy is indeed too ruthless.
He clearly already has a bodyguard of immense strength, yet is still sworn brothers with Eastern Emperor. What a background... Oh my god, who exactly is this person...
Such a person pretended to be weak and almost got me into trouble...
Pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger, even you are not so ruthless and thorough...
Snow Tear Cold arranged Chu Yang and Tie Butian side by side, shook his head and sighed, "Truly a pair of fools... Ah, foolish yet lovable. I like and appreciate them, so..."
Since Tie Butian was taken away, Snow Tear Cold had been tracking the entire incident, witnessing everything unfold. It wasn't until Chu Yang unleashed 'with my blood, destroy the catastrophic ruin' that he finally breathed a sigh of relief and intervened to bring the two over.
