Chapter 866

"Nonsense! Far-fetched! Forcibly making excuses! Bullying the weak and fearing the strong!"

Chen Guanlou's series of insults made him want to throw Wang Hai out and stomp on him a few times to make him sober up.

"Your apprentice is being punished, you don't blame the dog Emperor, but run here to blame me. Eunuch Wang, oh Eunuch Wang, I once admired you as a good man, young and with such profound cultivation, excellent talent, truly enviable. Now it seems, you are indeed a dog that bullies the weak and fears the strong! You should roll back to the palace and continue being your dog's leg. Don't come to this official's place to lose face; I look down on you."

Wang Hai said angrily, "I am a dog's leg, what are you? You hide in the Heavenly Prison, neither getting promoted nor leaving, what exactly is your purpose? What is in the Heavenly Prison worth you coveting?"

"Fart! What could I covet? I am nothing more than aiming for a bit of silver. Open and honest silver, is that not okay? I love dealing with prisoners, is that not okay? Must I have some scheme? You palace people all have the same virtue, your paranoia is very heavy. I really don't like dealing with you, one by one like mad dogs. Get out!"

Chen Guanlou pointed at the entrance and gave the order to leave without ceremony.

Wang Hai, however, was unmoved.

"Mere money, with your background as Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen and your martial arts cultivation, you could have as much as you want. Why must you stay in the Heavenly Prison? Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, could it be that you are playing the 'great hermit hiding in the city'? You possess secret treasures, and you likely had a miraculous encounter in the ancient tomb. You deceived everyone, didn't you?"

Chen Guanlou narrowed his eyes slightly, and he suddenly said, "The person being punished in the neighboring Imperial Prison is not your apprentice, right."

Wang Hai's expression didn't even change, "Don't try to change the subject."

Chen Guanlou became more and more certain of his guess, "You used the Lingchi in the Imperial Prison as an opportunity to run over and act crazy, just to test me. Sure enough, you still refuse to let me go, always suspecting that I obtained a fortuitous encounter in the ancient tomb. Tsk tsk... Eunuch Wang, why act like a villain. I let you monitor me openly and honestly, I am so frank. A gentleman is open and honest, a villain is always worried!"

"Who is a gentleman and who is a villain, it's useless to say it with your mouth. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, before you said you wanted to kill me, I am very certain that you must have a way to kill me. Let me think, your cultivation is definitely not what you show, could it be that you have already broken through to the Grandmaster realm? No, it should not be yet. What kind of miraculous encounter did you get? You say it, and I will ensure you don't die."

"Just by you, ensuring I don't die?! Hahaha..."

Chen Guanlou laughed out loud, as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world.

"You ensure I don't die, hahaha..."

He couldn't stop laughing, not hiding the mockery and disdain in his heart at all.

Wang Hai was annoyed by his laughter, a typical case of being angry from shame, "You think I can't do it?"

Chen Guanlou laughed until he almost rolled on the ground, "Eunuch Wang, I don't mean to look down on you. It's just that perhaps the gap in our philosophies is too big. You, seemingly fierce and peerless, are actually bullying the weak and fearing the strong inside. Take risking your life, for example, do you dare to risk your life with me? I dare! You don't! I have the courage and confidence to go all out, while you, in this life, can only be a dog that barks. How sad and lamentable!"

"Mere risking my life, what is there not to dare!"

"Are you sure?" Chen Guanlou asked with a smile that wasn't a smile. His feet didn't move, but Wang Hai already felt enormous pressure, as if the other party was approaching step by step.

"You have Ninth Rank cultivation. However, even Ninth Rank has levels." Chen Guanlou looked at ease and comfortable, "You are very strong; among your peers, not many people can be stronger than you. But, it's a pity you met me."

Before the words fell, he had already arrived in front of him.

Wang Hai wanted to counterattack, but found he was a step too late. His lifeblood was firmly pinched in the other's hand.

Chen Guanlou pinched the other's neck, and only needed to use a little force to choke him to death.

"Look, I was right. You are very strong, it's just a pity you met me. The gap between Ninth Rank and Ninth Rank is like the gap between Ninth Rank and Grandmaster, it is a natural chasm. If you want to become a true strong person, I advise you to get rid of the habit of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. A martial arts expert should forge ahead. You can show weakness for a moment, but you cannot show weakness forever. Get out!"

With a wave, Wang Hai stumbled and was driven out of the office door.

He stood at the entrance, gently stroking his neck, his face flushed, ashamed and annoyed, and there was also a trace of relief.

"You really did get a fortuitous encounter."

Chen Guanlou sneered, "What is a fortuitous encounter? At a certain moment, I understood the ultimate essence of martial arts, does that count as a fortuitous encounter? At a certain moment, I penetrated a martial arts problem that had been bothering me, does that count as a fortuitous encounter? At a certain moment, from the movement of the sun, moon, and stars, I saw through the operation of the martial arts path, does that count as a fortuitous encounter? You people keep shouting about fortuitous encounters every day, but you have never calmed down to think carefully about what a fortuitous encounter is. In my view, a fortuitous encounter is a moment of sudden enlightenment, an understanding of the essence of life, and an exploration of the meaning of life. May I ask Eunuch Wang, where is the meaning of your life? Could it be just to be a dog!"

"Who isn't a dog. I am a dog in the palace, you are a dog in the officialdom. Everyone is a dog, why do you sneer at me?" Wang Hai was extremely angry. Every sentence was about dogs; no matter how much of a dog he was, he lived uprightly.

Chen Guanlou nodded, expressing agreement, "Yes, everyone is a dog. This dog, me, can escape at any time. You, can you? Does this dog, you, dare to bite back at your master? Eunuch Wang, there is no need for you to waste your breath here. You can't convince me, and of course, I can't convince you.

Go back and tell your master, there is no fortuitous encounter, no miraculous encounter. Kill or cut, whatever. I, Chen Guanlou, started from the bottom and have never feared anyone. Grandmaster or Emperor, they are all people. And people will die one day!"

And he, with the same lifespan as heaven and earth, laughs at the wind and clouds.

Today's grievances, after people die, everything will drift away with the wind, disappear in time and space, and disappear in memory.

"You think if you say that, someone will believe it?"

"Do I care? Whether you believe it or not, look, do I care?" Chen Guanlou laughed, "I said it, I am at ease, you do as you please. Believe it or not, it doesn't matter. Lingchi next door, don't you want to go take a look? That is your 'apprentice'!"

After speaking, he laughed out loud, mocking the other for acting like a villain in vain. Making up some apprentice to deceive him, he really thought he was a three-year-old child. Shameless and base!

Wang Hai stiffened his face, "My apprentice, don't bother Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen. Today can be considered as having witnessed Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen's ability, goodbye!"

"Go well, I won't see you off!"

He lay back on the soft couch and continued drinking his little wine. He was certain that no one should come to disturb him tonight.

According to rumors, that hot-tempered Zhou Mobai was poisoned by several strange poisons in the ancient tomb, damaging his lungs, and his situation was very serious, with his realm falling significantly. Last time, when he returned to the capital, he could see it during their interaction. With the other's injuries, he shouldn't act rashly.

This person, Wei Wubing, was very insidious. If Zhou Mobai didn't charge, the other shouldn't show up.

The bird monk followed the crowd.

These three people, full of calculations, formed a subtle triangular balance.

Chen Guanlou chuckled, right now it was actually the quietest moment.
