Those arrogant words reached everyone's ears. Black mist spread everywhere, and the instant Minghe closed his hand, the black fog scattered across the seabed surged toward him, gathering in his palm.
He could hear the words but couldn't see what was happening. The Jade Emperor's eyes widened. "What just happened? Was that Nian?"
Li Jing looked dumbfounded. "That doesn't seem right. Nian couldn't speak even if it had just hatched, much less act so arrogantly. It even seems to have a grudge against Lord Lao."
Taibai nodded as well. "I can't make sense of this anymore. What's going on? Has there been another major change?"
There had certainly been a change. Big Chef Qin Fen nearly laughed himself unconscious. Minghe still had his hand extended, but enormous quantities of kelp wound around him from his palm all the way to the top of his head!
He was still utterly bewildered. His eyes darted toward his head, then his arm. "What the fuck is this thing? Was this what spoke just now?"
"Boy, you're pretty arrogant!" Sui said. Minghe wanted to die. Arrogant, his ass! The one showing off just now had clearly been the Daily Duty Star Officer!
"Y-you... what exactly are you?" Minghe couldn't process it. Hadn't he crushed Nian? No matter how he looked at this thing, it didn't look like Nian.
The Daily Duty Star Officer lay on the ground, aching inside. This is Nian? It fucking definitely isn't! Can I take back what I said? Dongwang Gong tricked me! What happened to the living ** he promised?
What was this? A thought suddenly struck him. Isn't this Sui? Sui should be in Lord Lao's hands, but Dongwang Gong passed it to me instead. He remembered Lord Lao's helpless predicament. Fuck!
Thank goodness Minghe had snatched it
