Chapter 266.2 - Zhu Gou Xiong? What a Unique Name!
Little Monster who was seated beside Lou Jun Yao had kept a cold and stoic expression throughout. But when those words from Zhuge Xiong came out, it caused Little Monster to arched up an eyebrow slightly on this rare occasion. Is this person hinting that the Overlord is too blind to spot the rare talent that he was, and is regretting it now after losing him?
Isn’t that guy thinking too much?
From what he understands of the Overlord, he is inclined to guess that the Overlord does not even know who that man is, not to mention regret anything.
And it turned out that Little Monster’s guess was correct.
Lou Jun Yao toyed with the exquisite wine cup in his hand and merely raised his eyes nonchalantly when he heard that, the look on his face seemingly surprised as he looked at Zhuge Xiong appraisingly. His brows then creased up after a moment before he said in an indifferent voice: “The colour of your clothes is just ghastly.”
Zhuge Xiong froze in his spot, stuck in his proud self conceited pose.
Little Monster could not help but twitch a corner of his mouth, but as the man’s reaction was completely what he expected to see, the expression on his face reverted back to normal very quickly.
That was the thing that Zhuge Xiong had been so proud of, the clothes that he thought gave him the regal and majestic air of a king, the one colour that he favoured the most.
Hence, not only were his clothes gold, even the uniforms of every single one the Hunters Guild’s members were all gold as well, their ranks differentiated only by the unique epaulets on their shoulders.
In the end, it could clearly be seen that Zhuge Xiong was the one that was ridiculed.
Ever since he came to assume the seat of his position, no one had dared to treat him with such an attitude. But the one man that he feared and held in awe at the same time had come to trample all his arrogance and his very dignity right into the dirt once again.
But it had been many years that Zhuge Xiong had occupied his position and he was no longer the same rash kid that was easily angered.
His face merely darkened for an instant before he said with a scoff. “The Dark Overlord has not changed in the slightest all these years, always such a quick and sharp tongue. I heard that you have been in the lower realms all this time, which makes me can’t help but recall. Haven’t you always despised those lowly second rate lands? You seem to have become more open and accepting nowadays?”
Zhuge Xiong was confident that Lou Jun Yao would not be able to respond to his brilliant and snideful sarcasm because he knew very well that Lou Jun Yao was never a person that could hide how he felt, known to be sharp and incisive with his words.
But they were not in the Dark Lands here today where Lou Jun Yao could do as he please without having to hold back. They were in the Bright Moon Temple and if Lou Jun Yao were to go overboard, Qing Luo Yan would not just sit back and watch. So if Lou Jun Yao became too overbearing here, he would only end up embarrassing himself here.
But, he guessed wrongly again.
Because Lou Jun Yao was a man who never played by the rules, his actions erratic and unconventional.
