The Wolf King's words were merely something to hear out.
Su Changsheng did not believe a single word.
Inwardly, he scoffed.
Had he not promptly and decisively released his spirit and Yao Nature to prove his innocence, even if the Wolf King had protected him, there was no question that the Wolf King would have become suspicious of him.
More probing would have followed, one attempt after another.

More importantly, by proving his innocence, he had created another stable environment for his growth. After all, lying low and continuing to grow stronger was what truly mattered.
If he became stronger than the Venom Dragon King someday, he could simply make him kneel and call him Daddy, avenging today's humiliation.

"Nothing unusual?"
"Strange..."
Su Changsheng frowned as well.
He and the Wolf King landed on the ground and examined everything carefully. It still looked perfectly normal, with nothing suspicious
