"Oh?" Having listened to Zao Miao's words, Wushe seemed to have taken a great interest in them.
His sharp brows rose high, and an exaggerated expression suddenly piled onto his usually indifferent face.
He continued questioning her:
"You want the Eternal Star Clan to join our Kero Clan's war. Do you think the Kero Clan alone is incapable of waging war against the demons?"
"Or do you think that I, a God of Slaughter's Chosen One, am not strong enough, and need the Eternal Star Clan to send God's Favored or other God's Chosen Ones to assist me?"
"In your eyes, is the Kero Clan actually just like the Aoke Domain—needing to rely on the strong in order to survive?"
Only then did Zao Miao finally sense the chill behind his words.
She hurriedly shook her head and argued:
"No, it isn't like that, Lord Wushe. I only wanted to ensure that the Kero Clan could win this war. I wasn't questioning your strength... ngh..."
Before she could finish, Wushe seized Zao Miao by the throat with one hand and lifted her off the ground.
Honestly, Zao Miao was completely dumbfounded right now!
She had no idea why Wushe was angry with her.
Was it really just because she had made an unnecessary suggestion that sounded like she was questioning the strength of the Kero Clan and Wushe, the God's Chosen One?
She had merely wanted to drag the Eternal Star Clan into this as well, To draw them into the Kero Clan's war and thereby weaken their strength.
It wasn't as though there had never been similar incidents before!
At most, Wushe and the Kero Clan would have reacted with disdain...
Why were they acting as if they'd swallowed gunpowder today, so irritable and violent?
"Not questioning my strength?"
