"You're human?"
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's voice rumbled like thunder.
"That's right."
"Then there's nothing to discuss. I'd sooner believe in ghosts than trust a human's lying mouth."
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's tone brimmed with loathing at the mention of humans.
"Uh, did humans dig up your ancestors' graves? Why do you hate them so much?"
Qin Xiao was at a loss for words.
"Bullshit! Since when do soul beasts have ancestral graves?"
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King retorted in a low voice.
"Fine. Since you don't believe me, I'll tell you the truth."
"That's right, I'll lay my cards on the table. I didn't come to help you. I came to use you."
Qin Xiao spread his hands, utterly unabashed.
"What did you say?"
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was suddenly taken aback.
Were humans this open now?
They could admit outright that they wanted to use someone, without even trying to hide it?
Qin Xiao's sudden candor caught him off guard.
"Hey, what's wrong with you now?"
When the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King failed to answer, Qin Xiao couldn't help prompting him. "Good or bad, you've got to give me an answer, right?"
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King: "..."
He had never been so speechless in his life.
How am I supposed to answer?
Am I supposed to say I'm willing to let you use me?
Wouldn't that be pathetic?
Yet the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was reluctant to refuse. His curiosity gnawed at him, and he wanted to know what Qin Xiao was planning.
In short...
He was torn.
After weighing his options, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King asked, "Boy, why did you come to me?"
He had suddenly become very curious about Qin Xiao's origins.
*Heh,
