I am the best when it comes to taking divergent paths. With just a flip of my hand, I shall take the path less commonly travelled. I search far and wide, only to find myself unbeatable and unrivaled. So now I ask, who else can match my awesomeness? Acting tough is second nature to me and I am a lone wolf. The road is long and winding but I shan’t feel lonely as long as I am able to act tough! Life and death bore me and I do whatever I deem fit. “Young man, way back when I started acting tough, you were still learning how to put on your underpants!” Xu Que thus decided to take the path of acting tough. He decided to act tough every single god-damned day. If he wasn’t acting tough, he was scheming for the best way to act tough!
"What?" Immediately, the faces of everyone present fell as panic filled the entire hall.
"Demonic beasts? How did they know we’re here?"
"Unless someone revealed our position to them?"
"What’s going on?"
Everyone started looking at the injured demonic human and started plying him with questions.
The wounded demonic human was pressing tightly against his bleeding wound and replied agonizingly, "I... I don’t know... I’m from Sea Cloud Tribe. Actually, our entire tribe along with our Tribe King were here but… They wanted to organize a show of strength against the new Demon King to protest his rule. Hence, we were ordered to wait in the forest. We didn’t expect a large group of demonic beasts to appear and started killing us without even speaking."
When Xu Que heard this, his eyebrows twitched.
Show of strength to protest my rule? Keke... the whole group of you were asking for death. Tried to act tough but ended up eating grass instead!
