Chapter 745: Scolding (II)
That insult was like a massive stone thrown into a still lake, turning the calm waters into huge waves.
The room fell silent.
The Sea Master had never imagined that this subordinate of his, who had followed him for centuries, would dare speak so audaciously there. He was so taken aback that he could not even think of a response.
Nevertheless, that did not matter because Squid King was not done yet.
"You may look like a human, but your brain's that of a dog! What's even in that head of yours? Is it just mud mixed with your mother's ashes?" Squid King spat out. His eyes turned bloodshot as he continued his tirade. "You know what? Don't call yourself the Sea Master anymore. Change your name to 'Sea Dog'. That suits your level of intelligence way better! You never take responsibility for your own failures; you always blame them on us instead. When exactly are you going to step the fuck up and take responsibility for your failures?! Every damn time your plans fail, you take it out on us. You know, maybe it's because you've never done anything good in your life that we're always plagued by bad luck! Whenever you get us to do something, it always fails. Why don't you just drop dead already..."
The Sea Master took in a deep breath. "Huu..."
His mind was buzzing all throughout Squid King's tirade. He felt lightheaded and needed a moment to recover from that verbal onslaught.
If it had been mindless cursing, the Sea Master would not feel this angry. However, the things Squid King had said were clearly his true feelings that he had suppressed and buried in the depths of his heart over the many years he had worked for the Sea Master. And every single one of them stabbed right into Sea Master's insecurities!
Seeing his subordinate turn into a raging devil, and in front of outsiders no less, the Sea Master could no longer contain his fury.
He struck Squid King with an explosive palm strike.
Wham!
