"What **ing bullshit!" Zhou Heng did not get angry, but Ni Anbei did. He grabbed the envoy by the front of his clothes and forcibly hoisted him up. "You bastard, if you dare utter one more slanderous word like that, I'll kill you!"
"Captain Ni, are you shielding a traitor?" The envoy did not resist in the slightest, nor was he afraid. He merely looked at Ni Anbei with a cold sneer. "If he is innocent, why should he fear an investigation?"
"Is this what you call an investigation? You're slandering a hero—a hero who might bring hope to the Dragon Clan!" Ni Anbei roared. Zhou Heng's killing power against the Shadow Undead was simply too great...
If this ability of his could grow alongside his cultivation, then one day he could sweep clean the Demon Sea and return a peaceful sky to the Dragon Clan! He could even be sent to support the other three Divine Beasts. By then, the Dragon Clan could truly become the foremost of the Four Divine Beasts—though at present, they had only proclaimed themselves so. Only the Dragon Clan, with its skin thick enough, could keep calling itself the head of the Four Divine Beasts.
"Captain Ni, do you truly think the ability he has displayed is normal? You should know that he never possessed such an ability before. Yet after being stranded in the Demon Sea for only a few months, he suddenly gained it. If we do not investigate this clearly, how are we supposed to convince the public?" the envoy said calmly. He was only a Comet Emperor, but his words were orderly and his logic exceedingly sharp.
A man like this was clearly no good on a battlefield, yet he was a master hand at scheming and intrigue!
