"Calm down? How do you want me to calm down?" Lu Xiao twisted his head 180 degrees, then looked at Nicole with a hateful expression and said, "The throne is about to be robbed, how do you still want me to calm down?"

"I... how can I calm down!"

Lu Xiao took one bite at a time, leaving Dart dumbfounded.

This kid has never been like this before.

Not only Dart was dumbfounded.

Even Morati was dumbfounded.

He remembered that he had never had such a stress reaction at that time.

If you think about it carefully, Morati can only attribute the reason to the difference in scale.

After all, the original Morati City and the current Holy City are completely different in scale.

The throne, which symbolizes power, is not a hierarchical thing.

On the surface, that position represents the Lord of Hell.

Thinking of this, Morati felt relieved.

Lu Xiao wanted to fight Ding Dan, but Nicole was too strong. Even if he tried his best, he couldn't break free.

"Calm down, Father! We should take care of it slowly!" Nicole was still shouting.

Lu Xiao turned his back to Nicole and hit Nicole directly on the forehead with a headbutt.

"Woo!" Nicole groaned in pain and subconsciously raised her hands to cover her head.

Because of this, she let go of her hand holding Lu Xiao's waist.

Lu Xiao's head didn't move and his body turned around.

Looking at Nicole, he was furious.

"You're still riding a horse, Father? Do you want to go to heaven?" Lu Xiao cursed.

Nicole lowered her head and covered her head and dared not speak.

By this time, Lu Xiao had also broken free from that feeling.

At this moment, he felt a sense of fear in his heart.

I just felt like I was in a daze.

This feeling is really terrible.

At this moment, Ding Dan spoke, "The reason why you are not suitable to be a leader is because you have never experienced the ultimate power.

Power can lead to confusion.

Even you can't resist this feeling at first."

Hearing this, Lu Xiao took a deep breath, then nodded heavily and said, "I really can't resist.

This feeling is too high."

Ding Dan nodded and said, "It is indeed very impressive.

But... the fundamental reason above you is that you only see the surface of power.

The birth of power often comes with responsibility.

Starting from the first ape-man tribe, other apes give the leader power, and the leader has to bear all the affairs of the entire race.

If you only enjoy the convenience brought by power, you are unwilling to take responsibility.

That is a foolish king.

If the means of fulfilling one's responsibilities are too radical, then one becomes a tyrant.

Although the two are in a companion relationship, the responsibility usually leaves midway.

Until the end, all that is left is power."

Having said this, Ding Dan paused.

Then he looked up at the door of the hall, his eyes dazed for a moment.

"When you step onto the Stairway leading to the throne, you will feel the invisible pressure that makes your heartbeat seem to stop.

That is the responsibility that comes first before the power falls on you.

However, you refused to look back and never stopped at Stairway.

Responsibility cannot bind you.

The moment you sit on the throne, you are alone.

Loneliness with only power accompanying you.

At this time, if someone pulls you down from the throne of power.

You will feel lost, like you have lost everything.

And if you enjoy power while also fulfilling responsibilities.

Then the moment you lose power and relieve the pressure, you will only feel relief."

After hearing this, Lu Xiao finally understood what Ding Dan said.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "So, are you free now?"

After the words fell, Ding Dan was slightly shocked.

Then, he shook his head slightly, and then raised his finger to point to the Crown on top of his head.

"I... not yet."

Lu Xiao nodded slightly.

Recall the previous conversation between Ding Dan and Caitlin, and combine it with Ding Dan's current feelings.

Lu Xiao seems to understand everything.

From Caitlin's house theft to Damon's arrival.

It's easy to connect the dots.

Ding Dan reached a deal with Damon and handed over the 'Tyrant' to Caitlin.

What Dimon will pay for this transaction, Lu Xiao doesn't know.

But Ding Dan, it is very likely that he will have to pay his own life.

Because, only when Ding Dan dies, the Crown on his head, which represents 'King', can be taken off.

Perhaps, this is why Dimon was so polite to Ding Dan.

After figuring out the key, Lu Xiao sighed quietly, "So, do you want to choose to die?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone else was stunned.

The conversation between the two made them confused.

Just now I was talking about such a profound topic as power.

As a result, Lu Xiao suddenly asked if he wanted to die.

This change happened too fast.

Only Morati has a thoughtful expression.

Ding Dan turned around, looked at Lu Xiao with calm eyes and said, "Why should I die?"

Lu Xiao said with some confusion, "Then how do you plan to hand over Authority?"

Hearing this, Ding Dan's eyes became confused. "Don't you want to take me somewhere after you finish talking?"

Lu Xiao:"..."

After groaning, Lu Xiao curled his lips and said in a strange tone, "So you have already plotted against me?"

Ding Dan shrugged and said, "Since the last natural disaster that destroyed me Holy City, the calculation has already begun.

You are always very lucky, no matter what problem you have, it will eventually be solved.

I'd like to see how you solve similar problems."

Lu Xiao is speechless again.

After a moment, he turned around and looked at Nicole.

"I'm telling you, in the future, you should try not to have contact with people like this.

Otherwise, I won't know what happened if I was sold."

After hearing Lu Xiao's words, Nicole quickly nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice.

Dart on the side also frowned.

Although I don't quite understand what they are saying, I always feel that it is very powerful.

Although he was plotted against, Lu Xiao was not angry.

On the contrary, his hanging heart finally fell to the ground.

Maybe for a while, Ding Dan was really influenced by the 'tyrant'.

There is no doubt that he has gotten rid of that influence at this moment.

Although Ding Dan will lose Authority as a result, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

After all, it is Authority that has been contaminated, so it doesn't hurt to lose it.

At worst, I'll get him another one later.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

It's settled here.

At this moment, two Succubus walked in from outside, supporting a bloody figure.

Everyone focused their attention on the three of them.

Seeing the bloody figure, Lu Xiao immediately frowned.

After a moment, he smacked his lips and said, "Tsk! This is too miserable!"
