Chapter 725 - You Don’t Know Their Heart (1/2)

Xin Lan stared at the gate and furrowed his brows. Was this guy mocking him? Why wasn't he coming out? He thought about calling out to him once again but thinking of that stupid face he couldn't bring himself to do so.

Obviously, Tian was just playing with him. He didn't intend to come out. He could but he didn't want to. He was basically trying to say that he was the owner of this place and could do whatever he fucking wanted. And most likely, he was also trying to make the point that he didn't welcome him as a guest.

Xin Lan sighed. He didn't have time to play with Tian. Even though he had only promised Xiang Yu to accompany him on the trial because of his Master, he would take this promise seriously now that he had made it. He was a man of his word. So he had to find out just where that fallen god had gone for his trial and he also had to make sure that he found out before Jin Ling noticed anything. He definitely didn't want any demon to mess with that child.

Xin Lan took a deep breath and decided not to give a damn about what Tian thought. He pushed open the gate and stepped into the capital, making his way over to the place where Tian lived.

Inside of Xing's palace, Tian furrowed his brows and got up. He hadn't thought that Xin Lan would be so daring to really come in. At least not this fast. Well, he didn't mind. He would see just what this guy wanted. He took a last look at the coffin in front of him and got up, stepping out of the palace.

Xin Lan also reached the square in front of the building and looked at the sovereign of all realms. ”You must not have heard me call from outside. Thankfully, I came over.”

Tian didn't say anything. He certainly didn't have anything to chat about with this person.

Xin Lan took a look around before he turned back to Tian. ”I swore that I would accompany a fallen god on his trial in the mortal realm. Otherwise, you'd be allowed to strike me down.”

”Is there anything holding me back from doing that right now?”

Xin Lan smiled. ”Well, I don't think anyone believes you to be a just ruler so I guess not. It certainly wouldn't be your moral compass.”

”Is that all you came here for? The pour out your heart? Complain about how unfair you were treated?”

Xin Lan shook his head. ”I'm here because of that fallen god. Didn't I say so?”

”You wouldn't be here to search for his immortal body, would you?”

Xin Lan shook his head. ”Since you took the time to tell him about your opinion of me and you're also the one that is part of our deal, I think you should help me out a bit. Where did he go? I mean where did his soul go? I don't want to have to search through the whole mortal realm to find out and I'm pretty sure it would raise some eyebrows if I went to ask the fate's scribe, wouldn't it?”

Tian gave a smile. ”Look at this. You actually do have a heart. You don't want to make trouble for him.”
