"Rule Heaven? Aren't we already doing it?"
Lai Mingjie's eyes widened for a second before he moved his hand to see Xu Rouguang's lowered eyes. He waited for Xu Rouguang to say something else, but the wife was only quiet as if waiting for him to react as well. The demon god sighed. "What is your idea of ruling Heaven, Rou? We're only people that those guys didn't want to offend or something. Tch, what an annoying standing… convenient but annoying..."
Xu Rouguang moved to sit up and stared at Lai Mingjie as the blanket slid down his back. "Don't you feel it? Everything we do… they're all compelled to accept it just the same. Even if they don't like us—if we tell them to kneel, they have no choice but to do it. Everything that belongs to them, we can take it for ourselves if we want to. If they're not happy, they can fight for it… but where will that put them?
