Chapter 969: Fuck You!
To the question Tepid Scholar asked her, she wanted to say, "No."But she knew that there was no way they would believe that she would be ignorant of the fact that she was hiding a fugitive when she had such great eyes.
So she said, "I did."
After getting the answer, Tepid Scholar sighed and said, "Then I don’t believe that you are blameless in this."
Sword Maestro tutted in disapproval as he said, "You used your power to hide him, and you knew that he was hiding there, yet you didn’t tell us about it. That’s going too far."
Heavenly Eye chuckled and said without shame, "What can I say? I did what I had to do. I’m sure you too would have done the same thing if you were in my shoes."
Instead of getting sympathy or understanding from them, Black Chains said, "Fuck you."
Martial Will said in agreement, "Yeah, fuck you."
Tepid Scholar also added, "I mean, this is not the first time you’re doing something like this. You’ve done it before, and you know how badly that went. Yet, you did it again. So fuck you."
Sword Maestro didn’t have the seniority or power to berate her to her face like that, so he limited himself to saying, "If you can do this two times, it is highly likely that you’re already doing it a third time. I wonder who it is you’re still hiding, though."
Black Chains exploded in anger as he said to her, "It was you who hid this dragon from us, right? You did it, you scheming bitch."
While the Dao Lords were exchanging unsavory words above, Golden Sun and Loki were having a pleasant conversation below.
Loki said, "So what did Lord Black Chains mean when he said this was a dying domain? What’s even a domain?"
In response, Golden Sun tsked and would have rolled his eyes if he had one, as he said, "Not so fast. You have to swear an oath to let me go."
"Oh come on," Loki said in exasperation. "Why must you do this?"
Golden Sun replied as if he was stating the obvious, "To stop you from going back on your word."
With no way around it, Loki said, "Fine. You want an oath, you will get an oath."
Then he said, "I swear on my Dao that I will let Golden Sun go after he answers all of my questions."
After the oath, he asked, saying, "I hope that satisfied you."
Golden Sun replied, "No, that wasn’t good enough. The time you set to let me go is vague."
"According to your oath, if you keep asking me questions, you won’t let me go. So I could be stuck answering questions for you forever, and then you will kill me before you’re done asking all of your questions. That’s not good enough for me."
"You also didn’t add anything about helping me recover my power. So when you swear the oath again, add something about helping me reincarnate and recovering my strength."
