"The end of the story was completely beyond what the young lad had expected. But at that point, even an idiot would have learned something from it.

Sang paused momentarily before adding, "But he wasn't an idiot. In fact, he was incredibly smart. He was the smartest person that had ever been and would ever be."

Xu Xiaoshou was speechless.

The old man was shameless!

"It was then that the old geezer appeared again.

"The young lad asked him…"

Sang turned and gave Xu Xiaoshou a look. "What do you think he asked him?"

Xu Xiaoshou scratched his head before looking Sang in the eye. "Why do you have such dark eyebags?"

Sang froze momentarily.

Then, he blew up.

He gave the young man a hard smack on the head. "Be serious!"

"But I am…" Xu Xiaoshou wanted to say, but he swallowed the words instead. He wasn't going to joke around. His life was precious.

"Why did you force feed me the Infernal Fire Seed?" he asked.
