Silence!
Deathly silence!
The whole world was so quiet that only the howling wind could be heard!
For the first time, Gongxi Chou felt as if his brain had heated up and swollen until it was about to burn to charcoal. Without thinking, he raised a hand and slapped his right ear, as though trying to knock out some nonexistent obstruction. "W-what?"
Had his ears started playing tricks on him?
He asked himself honestly: no matter how arrogant and overbearing he was, he would never tell the incarnation of a 20th Rank Che Hou to his face—You're one of the living Gu Worms raised by the Gongxi Clan!
As Mama would put it—
"What's the difference between that and squatting on someone's head to shit and piss?"
No, it was even more disgusting than shitting and pissing.
Gong Cheng was also staring at Jimò Qiu in near disbelief.
After barely digesting the meaning of those words, he cautiously glanced at his companion from the corner of his eye. Though he couldn't see the other man's expression from this angle, the agitation of the Heaven and Earth Qi around him made it easy to imagine just how foul his mood was!
Killing Intent gathered, condensing into a tangible, icy-blue glow.
He forced his voice down. "Say that again?"
Jimò Yu's earnest teachings over the years had successfully raised Jimò Qiu into an honest, well-rounded young man, complete in virtue, intellect, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor. He respected the old and cared for the young. Since the man had asked him to repeat himself, he gave the exact same answer without changing a word.
This time, even Shen Tang fell silent.
Wasn't Jimò Qiu the real big brother to Gongxi Chou?
Just look at that peerless way of showing off!
And listen
