A Bonus Chapter for a Monthly Leaderboard Donation (Asha Ruiya)

The door opened before the two could even enter the Golden Radiance Knight's residence.

"Your Excellency Tang Miao, it's been a long time. Thank you so much for your help last time."

At that moment, Norman stepped forward and said...

"It seems you're recovering quite quickly." Tang Miao glanced at Norman from head to toe; he was almost completely unharmed.

Parthenon isn't just adept at political maneuvering; his healing abilities remain top-notch. Even though Parthenon's situation is somewhat chaotic now, someone like Norman, who was barely clinging to life, would be considered quite remarkable elsewhere, let alone be this energetic.

"We are also grateful for Lord Tang Miao 'Your Excellency assistance," Norman Fighting Officer said humbly.

"Yes, I came to find you. Do you know why?" Tang Miao asked again.

"Does Your Excellency want me to take sides?" Norman glanced at Asha Ruiya, who was naturally aware of the rumors surrounding the two of them.

After all, he spent almost all of his recovery time in Parthenon.

Asha Ruiya was taken aback... She looked at Tang Miao, only to see that he had actually nodded.

Recalling what Tang Miao said that day, his support was enough... In Parthenon, having Norman's support was practically equivalent to controlling eighty percent of the knights!

This is a top-tier combat force, even on an international scale!

"Tang Miao Your Excellency, although you saved me, I cannot grant this request. She is no longer the person she once was. I am not at ease entrusting Parthenon to her." Norman's voice was indifferent, as if devoid of any human warmth.

"If you don't trust her, then who do you trust?" Tang Miao retorted.

"Not at the moment..." Norman shook his head.

"Norman, this world is constantly changing. You don't think Asha Ruiya's naive and innocent nature would have allowed her to survive this long, do you?" Tang Miao added.

"I don't blame her, and I understand what you're saying."

Norman wasn't such a stubborn person; he understood some things.

"However, understanding doesn't mean I can accept it."

Norman's words truly saddened Asha Ruiya. After all, they were siblings.

"If you can't accept it, I'll have the Black Dragon protect her. Whether the people of Parthenon or Athens City can accept it is your business. Of course, if you have the ability to trick it like Su Lu did, perhaps you can also become dragon slayers." Tang Miao said, and then pulled Asha Ruiya away.

Talking about stances with this kind of person is a complete waste of breath.

Therefore, Heilong is currently the best tool for them.

Of course, Tang Miao had no chance of summoning the Black Dragon to Parthenon Sacred Mountain. After all, this was his old buddy's territory.

"Your Excellency. Tang Miao, are you threatening me?" Norman looked at Tang Miao with a somewhat unpleasant expression. To be honest, if it were anyone else, Norman would have already shown them the door!

Tang Miao is truly the first person to threaten him!

However, the Black Dragon Emperor was saved by Tang Miao, and judging from the fact that Tang Miao gifted him a body full of black dragon scales, Tang Miao might actually be able to find them for him.

But Norman had his principles, and as a man of principle, how could he compromise?

However, upon closer reflection, Norman could conclude that the Black Dragon had no chance of appearing here. After all, this was once Wen Tai's territory!

After thinking it through, Norman continued, "You don't need to waste your breath. I won't help you with this. You saved my life, and if you want it back, you can come and get it anytime."

"..."

I tried everything, from gentle persuasion to harsh words, but this guy just wouldn't agree.

This was the first time in his life he had encountered someone like this...

Fortunately Asha Ruiya came through at that moment. "Never mind, I can still survive even without his help."

In any case, Norman didn't support himself, but he also didn't seem to support anyone else. That's already quite good.

Tang Miao had originally intended to save him to give Asha Ruiya's help, but the ending was completely unexpected. It really infuriated him!

His short temper is almost always on the verge of exploding.

With his current strength, even without Demonization, he might still be able to deal with Norman. Of course, Norman himself said that if he wanted him dead, he wouldn't even put up a fight.

"That Norman is really ungrateful. I've never seen such a stubborn person in my life. Was Wen Tai like this back then? Otherwise, how could he have raised such a fool who's always the same?" Tang Miao said, cursing, after returning to her residence with Asha Ruiya.

"Hehe... maybe~" Asha Ruiya was quite happy to see Tang Miao like this.

Then, she went to Tang Miao's side and slowly squatted down. "Although I didn't get my brother's support, thank you for what you did for me today. This is your reward~"

After saying that, Asha Ruiya lowered her head.

But this time, Tang Miao did not pull her up as she wished.

"But... I'm not satisfied with this anymore," she said, reaching out her hand.

"No... not yet..." Although Asha Ruiya was going to give a reward, she wasn't prepared to be the reward herself.

Unfortunately, the issue now isn't whether she'll give it to me or not...

She didn't have the initiative.

Moreover, although she said that, she didn't mean to refuse as she had before, so Tang Miao, who knew women's hearts well, naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity.

Asha Ruiya's domain is definitely what he most wants to explore right now...

Now that the opportunity has presented itself, he certainly won't miss it...

"If you want to enjoy something, you have to pay the price first. How can you enjoy something if you don't pay the price?" Tang Miao had figured it out; this little vixen was all talk and no action.

"Are you leaving tomorrow?" A drowsy Asha Ruiya asked Tang Miao.

Now that Tang Miao has recovered, and his friend is still unconscious, Tang Miao should be very eager to leave Parthenon, right?

However, having just experienced an overwhelming shock, Asha Ruiya was truly reluctant to leave...

"How could that be? Anyway, Mu Bai isn't dead, so I don't think staying for a few days will have any impact. Besides, didn't you give me some information? I think one of my friends can take a closer look," Tang Miao added.

All right...

Before going to find Norman, he also felt he should make the most of every second.

But half a day after returning, Tang Miao suddenly changed her mind. How could she be in such a hurry to leave when she had such a rare opportunity to enjoy herself?

No matter which part it is, you'll love it for years to come!

I used to think that what you can't have is the most desirable, but after getting it, I realized that's not necessarily true...
