Chapter 2775: Immortality—What Two Illusory Words
It was clear that the big man's change in mindset was quite remarkable.
At first, he had not seen Xu Zimo.
So he had spoken carelessly and without restraint.
He had seemed deeply dissatisfied with Xu Zimo.
But now that he had seen Xu Zimo, he immediately became well-behaved.
He even began addressing him as "my lord."
It was clear that he was extremely nervous.
When the middle-aged man saw Xu Zimo nod, he too became flustered.
After all, speaking ill of someone right to their face and being overheard was hardly a glorious matter.
And he could only complain a little to Lin, the Demon King.
If he truly encountered Xu Zimo and learned of Xu Zimo's affairs, he was also very afraid.
If the other party wanted to kill him, there seemed to be nothing he could do.
At this moment, he could only give an awkward laugh.
He said, "What I said just now was not directed at you, Senior. I meant other people.
"Actually, I am a steadfast supporter of yours.
"I have absolutely no objections to the Lin demon clan being ruled by you."
The speed at which this man changed his face could not be called anything but swift.
There was no helping it; circumstances were stronger than men.
If he did not lower his head at a time like this, what else could he do?
A real man had to know when to bend and when to stretch.
Xu Zimo did not answer him. He merely smiled without speaking.
That reaction placed even greater pressure on the middle-aged man.
Cold sweat was already trickling down his forehead.
His face wore a smile uglier than weeping.
He could not help saying, "Senior, please be magnanimous and forgive me."
