Chapter 1748 The Chosen One Kneels!
I don't understand what you're saying!
“But if you want me to take you to find all the missing Palu people, it can’t be done with just a few nonsensical words.”
"You need to show some sincerity!"
"What sincerity do you want?" Xu Xiao took a half step back, his gaze still fixed on the face of the Euglin fox.
Smir paused, staring at the woman's clear, bright eyes, and for a moment felt flustered.
However, his initial conviction strengthened him, and he feigned a firm stance, saying:
"First and foremost, I must not feel any more pain!"
Xu Xiao nodded and immediately agreed, "Okay."
“Secondly…” Smir turned his head and glared fiercely at Nikita:
"I want that woman to kneel down before me and kowtow to apologize!"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their attention to Nikita.
The latter looked astonished, his angry and embarrassed eyes mixed with a hint of embarrassment.
She knew, of course, that her previous act of 'righteousness' had not only failed to help, but had instead caused a great disaster.
In order to find the missing Palu people, it was understandable that she would bow her head and apologize to Smir.
But kneeling and kowtowing is a bit too much...
It would be better to make her pay with her life than to subject her to such humiliation!
Ma Han immediately noticed Nikita's unusual expression, took a half-step forward, and spoke to Smir:
"You bastard, don't push your luck!"
"You're perfectly fine now, aren't you still alive and well?"
"At most, I'll apologize to you!"
"Kneeling and kowtowing is just picking a fight. I advise you to give up on that idea!"
“I—won’t—!” Smir glared, his voice trailing off in an incredibly irritating tone.
"If she doesn't kneel down and kowtow to me loudly today, this matter isn't over!"
"You won't be finding the rest of the Palu people either!"
"Since this guy has already said all that, what are we waiting for, guys?" Lin Shi rolled up his sleeves and stepped out of the crowd:
"Let's just extract his soul. If he doesn't want to talk, those guys in the research department should have plenty of ways to make him 'talk'!"
When Smir saw the Lin family members gathering around him, his heart skipped a beat.
However, on the surface, he remained unyielding, stubbornly insisting:
"Come on! Draw as many as you want!"
"If I, Smir, even frown, it's because you gave birth to me!"
"You really think I'm completely unprepared?"
"If you were so capable of finding the rest of the Palu people, why the hell weren't you here sooner?!"
Lin Shi's eyelids twitched, and his gaze unconsciously drifted toward Wu Siyuan in the crowd.
Although he was very reluctant to admit it
But the situation seems to be almost exactly as Smirre described?
After secretly questioning Wu Siyuan with his mental power, the response he received confirmed his suspicions.
[Tracing] can only locate the positions of the resurrected Palu people; it still cannot pinpoint the whereabouts of those who are missing.
"Come on, why did you stop?"
Seeing the Lin family members stop in their tracks, Smir felt even more confident and began to shout more enthusiastically:
"Don't be afraid, I won't bite, and I'll cooperate with you 200%!"
"Hurry up and extract my soul! Ah—!"
The last modal particle took on a different meaning in Smir's mouth.
What started as a provocation turned into uncontrollable screams.
Lin Shi and the others were taken aback.
He immediately noticed the white thorns tightening on the other person's arm again, and heard a faint sound of bones cracking in his ear.
Xu Xiao's expression was indifferent, exuding a coldness that kept strangers at bay, and he spoke calmly:
"Alright, stop making a fuss."
"I apologize to you on behalf of Nikita."
"You?" Smir looked at Xu Xiao through the pain, a barely perceptible hint of fear in his eyes.
Although they had previously been very boastful and acted as if they were fearless.
But in reality, he knows best what kind of situation he is in right now.
No matter who was present, Smir dared to mess with them.
But he dared not provoke Xu Xiao!
Aside from the bond between his own life and the other party, the oath contract also made him very worried about the details that were overlooked.
After all, the oath only guaranteed his survival, not that it would protect him from torture.
Although the two previous fatal injuries have been fully recovered, there is not even a scar left on the skin surface.
But the pain and fear of death are etched into my memory.
If this happens a few more times, Smir will have a hard time guaranteeing that his mental state will remain as normal as it is now.
Therefore, Xu Xiao is now giving him a way out, and he can no longer keep up the act and make things difficult for him.
However, the anger in his heart was hard to let go.
If he didn't vent, he would feel stifled.
Then he spoke up and said:
"You can apologize on her behalf, but I want more than just a verbal statement."
"You need to take concrete actions!"
Actually, Smir's original intention was not to make Xu Xiao kneel down and kowtow.
After all, he's not stupid.
They clearly understood the difference between offending a powerful player and offending a powerful chosen one.
The reason why Xu Xiao is required to take 'concrete actions' is...
They just want some tangible benefits from the other party.
Ultimately, greed and bravado led to the misunderstanding, causing the situation to spiral out of control!
"it is good."
Xu Xiao responded calmly, her voice soft yet firm.
To everyone's astonishment, the woman bent her knees and kowtowed deeply to Smir:
"On behalf of Nikita, I apologize to you and ask for your forgiveness."
Smir stood there, completely stunned, never expecting things to turn out this way.
Nikita's mouth was slightly open, and his face was completely blank.
Xu Xiao remained calm throughout the room, raising his head and asking indifferently:
"Is it okay?"
“Uh…” Smir didn’t know how to respond for a moment, and subconsciously looked around.
The people of Paru were practically spitting fire in their eyes.
Ma Han was both shocked and furious, trembling with rage!
Smir was 100% certain that if he dared to utter even a single word of dissent right now…
They'll be chopped into mincemeat by those furious bastards right away!
He demanded that a chosen one kneel before him...
And it has become a reality!
This is absolutely not an honor.
It is a terrible mark.
A terrifying curse!
"I guess...it's barely acceptable..." Smir swallowed, forcing himself to remain calm.
"That's not what I meant at all..."
The second half of the sentence became softer and softer as the voice continued.
In the end, it's barely better than a mosquito buzzing.
There is no other reason,
The air pressure is too low!
Rather than making things worse by trying to explain, it's better to just keep quiet.
Otherwise, it would be superfluous!
The conflict was resolved in this bizarre way.
Smir, having stopped causing trouble, continued to lead the way.
Xu Xiao, Ma Han, and a group of Palu people followed behind.
Seeing that the person had already gone far away, but Nikita hadn't moved for a long time, Lin Cheng quietly gestured to the group of Lin family members behind him to follow.
He had a premonition.
Today's matter will probably not be left unresolved like before.
