A lot had happened tonight, some of which really subverted Melgor's outlook. He could not help but start recalling some of the things he had said to Ren Xiaosu.
When Melgor initially captured Ren Xiaosu, Ren Xiaosu was told he would not want to return to the Central Plains anymore after he found out how powerful sorcerers were.
Later, when Melgor and the two servants got ambushed, Melgor branded Ren Xiaosu an oaf and told him not to rashly pursue the attacker. He didn't think Ren Xiaosu had any chance against a sorcerer.
And even later… it seemed like he had something to criticize daily regarding Ren Xiaosu's bragging too.
In this train of thought, Melgor could not help but peek on Ren Xiaosu's expression. Seeing that Ren Xiaosu did not seem to bear a grudge against him, Melgor slowly relaxed.
Melgor asked softly, "What happened to that sorcerer who attacked me with Flame Pillar?"
