Upon thinking of this, he casually took out a King Grade Elixir from his Storage Ring.
"Hey, dwarf, do you know what this is?"
The Black Clothed Guard waved the elixir in his hand and shouted.
However, to his surprise, this elixir of his did not attract the slightest bit of attention from the dwarf at all.
He just glanced at him with disdain.
It even seemed full of contempt.
Good heavens!
The Black Clothed Guard was burning with anger.
He almost exploded directly.
He had actually been looked down upon by this damned mortal dwarf.
However, he still forcibly held back his anger. After all, in his opinion, perhaps this dwarf simply could not recognize what was in his hand.
So he held back his anger and said directly, "To tell you the truth, this is an elixir, moreover it's a King Grade Elixir. Just this one elixir alone would be a priceless treasure to you mortals."
After speaking, he turned his gaze towards Lu Benwei.
He seemed to have already envisioned the shocked and covetous look on the dwarf's face when he realized there was a King Grade Elixir in his hand.
Because although this King Grade Elixir was nothing much to him, it would definitely make mortals green with envy.
However, to his surprise once again, Lu Benwei's reaction completely defied his expectations.
He didn't even glance at him.
Yes, after he stated it was a King Grade Elixir, this damned mortal dwarf didn't even look at him.
This almost made the Black Clothed Guard go berserk.
This was a King Grade Elixir!
Why wouldn't a mortal show the slightest surprise and even ignore it instead?
"Fine, pretend if you want, I'll make you pretend!"
The Black Clothed Guard gritted his teeth audibly and moved his palm, taking out another elixir.
"This is an Emperor Grade Elixir. Even martial emperors would desperately fight for it to no avail. Now as long as you jump off the ship yourself, I can give you this elixir. What do you think? For you this is a once in a lifetime opportunity."
Having said that, the Black Clothed Guard raised the corner of his mouth again.
He refused to believe that under such temptation, the dwarf in front of him could still restrain himself.
Finally, Lu Benwei looked his way.
But beyond his expectation, it wasn't covetousness but a voice of contempt that came out: "You've been babbling on about a worthless piece of dog food, even telling me to jump off the ship. Did you hit your head?"
Sss!
These words almost made the Black Clothed Guard spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Dog food?"
"You dare call my Emperor Grade Elixir dog food?"
"Are you blind?"
He angrily berated.
Yet Lu Benwei glanced at him calmly again and gently said, "Why would I lie to you? That stuff is what my dog at home usually eats!"
"You..."
Lu Benwei's total disregard and humiliation infuriated the Black Clothed Guard. His whole body trembled as his eyes flashed with intense fury.
"You despicable mortal, even if it means invoking my master's wrath today, I will teach you a good lesson."
Having said that, he moved his palm and turned it into a sharp claw that grabbed at Lu Benwei's neck.
But beyond his expectation, just as it was about to grab Lu Benwei, the latter slightly tilted his head.
The Black Clothed Guard's face changed drastically.
He had controlled his strength very well, yet somehow, with a plop, his whole body tumbled into the river.
Hearing the commotion from behind, Yi Feng and Huang Wujing, who were chatting happily, hurriedly turned their heads back to take a look.
"What's going on here?" Yi Feng asked in surprise.
Yet Huang Wujing frowned.
He knew this guard's strength clearly, so how did he inexplicably fall into the river?
After getting ashore, Huang Wujing directed his questioning gaze straight at the Black Clothed Guard.
"Master, I, I, I..."
The Black Clothed Guard's face flushed red as he stammered without being able to get the words out.
"What exactly happened?" Huang Wujing asked solemnly.
"I..."
In the face of Huang Wujing's prestige, the Black Clothed Guard finally told the whole story, then quickly explained, "I only wanted to teach him a lesson, but I don't know how, I just tumbled into the river somehow."
"Humph, fooling around."
Huang Wujing berated him with a shout.
"Master, your subordinate deserves death. I shall never dare again." Under Huang Wujing's might, cold sweats streamed down the Black Clothed Guard's face as he didn't even dare to breathe loudly with his head bowed down.
"It'd better be so."
Huang Wujing glared at him, his eyes full of anger.
However, what made him puzzled over repeatedly was that aside from this incident, with this guard's strength, how could he have possibly fallen into the river just like that?
Unwittingly, he directed his piercing eyes at Yi Feng's guard, the short dwarf in the black robe.
He sized him up and down cautiously...
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
