The atmosphere stilled as soon as Shen Nianzu finished speaking.
The blunt remarks that cleverly mixed threat and persuasion delivered an even stronger impact when combined with this sheer display of manpower. Not to mention the tall and menacing Jin Jiuchi standing behind him like a guard dog. These people were not fools; they could tell the soldiers were particularly respectful toward the man, even though they had no idea who he was.
Alas, fear notwithstanding, it would be far too humiliating to fold just like this without putting up a fight.
The same human, who had spoken earlier, attempted to put on a brave front as he stuttered out, "W-What the hell are you talking about? You just barged in out of nowhere and then expect us to understand your nonsense??"
This time, it wasn't Shen Nianzu who responded.
"You still don't understand after all my Nian'er has said?"
