"Captain, dare I ask, what command did I disobey?" Ling Han asked with a smile. He seemed extremely relaxed and unworried.
Xie Donglai was lost for words. Before so many people, did he have the face to say that he had commanded Ling Han to collect firewood? If he said this, he would be making a fool of himself! Commanding a Sun Moon Tier elite to collect firewood… What an utter joke!
He could pick on Ling Han in private, but he wouldn't be able to do so in public. One didn't need to be a genius, and even those of average intelligence would be able to tell that he was purposefully picking on Ling Han.
There were unspoken rules behind Xie Dongai's actions. He was the superior, and Ling Han was his subordinate. Thus, Ling Han would need to act exactly as he commanded. Otherwise, he would continue to pick on him until he submitted.
However, once Ling Han yielded, he would only be pushed further and further, until there was no path of retreat.
