"You! Dream on!" Xiao Molan was both shocked and furious. Naturally, he refused, but when he saw the disdainful, contemptuous looks everyone was giving him, he suddenly felt that his words had sounded a little weak. He hurriedly explained, "Who knows whether you people colluded together to harm me!?"
"Oh... So you never believed in Che'er to begin with, and you had long harbored ulterior motives against the Six Paths Immortal Venerable!" I said deliberately.
"What nonsense are you spouting!? When did I ever harbor ulterior motives!? I mean, the Six Paths Immortal Venerable might have been deceived by you!" Xiao Molan had stepped right into the trap and hurriedly tried to leap back out as if he had been jolted by electricity.
"Heh heh, in any case, you don't believe in your Immortal Venerable. You aren't even willing to entrust your life to her. If you absolutely trusted her, then according to your logic, how could she possibly lose to me? After all, that is the Dao-Suppressing Divine Artifact, isn't it?" I sneered.
Xiao Molan gnashed his teeth and glanced at Guan Shuang. The old man immediately stepped forward and said, "There are exceptions to everything. Why must City Lord Xia declare the outcome so readily? However, this old man also feels that, judging by the Dao Ancestor's words passed down concerning this Dao-Suppressing Divine Artifact, you ought to be unable to defeat it..."
"Is that so? If I can't win, then I can't win. What is there to compare about whether the husband is stronger or the wife? Besides, examples of the husband singing and the wife following are everywhere. I refuse to believe that even if she is stronger than me, she could bully me every day. I'm stronger than her anyway, yet I've never bullied her.
