Chapter 563: Chapter 564: Embarrassment Turns into Anger
Ying Hao stood up and pointed at Yadang sharply, "Where did this blind thing come from, daring to speak to the Lord Mayor like that!" 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Since Keli had deliberately ignored Yadang when introducing people earlier, and Yadang was sitting in a dark corner, making it hard for anyone to see his face clearly, everyone naturally assumed he was an insignificant soldier.
Yadang hooked the corner of his lips up, looking at Ying Hao with coldness, "Why is Clan Chief Zhaoying in such a hurry? The Lord Mayor hasn’t said anything yet, is it your turn to intervene? If I didn’t know better, I’d think you were the Lord Mayor of Upper Beast City."
A casual sentence, yet it set Ying Hao’s heart ablaze with anger!
He wanted to go up and punch this arrogant beastman to death!
Yadang again gave Ying Hao a smile that was not quite a smile, "What’s the matter, Clan Chief Zhaoying? Has someone touched a sore spot and made you angry?"
The expression on Ying Hao’s face became savage, he growled lowly, "Brat, I’m going to send you to see the Beast God now!"
Just as he was about to act, the beastmen beside him suddenly held him back.
Fengyi knelt on the ground and bowed to Keli, "My lord, you know best what kind of person my father is. In his haste, he was upset with someone disrespecting you, he had absolutely no ulterior motives!"
When Ying Hao heard this, his heart jumped with surprise!
Damn it! He had been tricked!
He knew something felt off just now. It turns out this seemingly weak beastman had set a trap for him here.
Ying Hao also knelt down rapidly, his knees hit the ground hard, as if the earth itself trembled, showing just how hard he was kneeling.
"My Lord Mayor, please calm down! I was just angry that the beastman was disrespecting you, I absolutely did not mean to replace you as a lord mayor. Please believe me!"!
Fengyi lowered his eyes, sighed helplessly in his heart.
With the way his father bluntly stated it, it might even be harder for the Lord Mayor to believe him.
The higher the position, the deeper the suspicion grows!
Although Keli was only the Lord Mayor of Upper Beast City, he also had this common flaw. Outwardly he appeared very trusting of you, but in secret, he was more cautious than anyone else.
Especially towards someone like Ying Hao, whose Superpower Level is similar to his, he was especially wary.
Because everyone was roughly equally strong, why should they deign to be beneath others?
Anyway, if Keli were in their positions, he certainly wouldn’t be inclined to do so.
Keli knew that Yadang was deliberately trying to sow discord, and he wanted to let it go, but he couldn’t!
The reason he valued Ying Hao greatly was that, though Ying Hao had a high Superpower level, his brain wasn’t as good as Keli’s, so Keli could easily control Ying Hao.
But just now, he suddenly discovered that Ying Hao’s cub was smart, able to easily perceive the changes in his Qi.
Keli appeared calm, despite the turmoil in his heart, he waved his hand and said, "Rise, I know you better than anyone, how can I blame you based on the words of outsiders?"
Ying Hao was overjoyed in his heart!
He sprang up from the ground, turned his head to look at Yadang, humphed heavily, and no longer spoke to him.
Fengyi also slowly rose, meeting Keli’s scrutinizing gaze as his head lifted. There was a slight pause in his movements, he simply nodded with a smile, looking as if nothing was amiss, and returned to his seat.
Fortunately, Keli didn’t keep his eyes on him, but instead turned his gaze to Yadang.
"How Upper Beast City runs, is not for an outsider like you to judge."
