What they wanted was more than just to live.
Otherwise, why else would they go through so much trouble and even risk their own lives?
If they just behaved themselves, listened to Greedy Wolf and did everything he said, they would stay alive for sure. But the feeling of being at the beck and call of someone else all the time wasn't really living.
"People ought to want more," said Guan Vi.
After that, he stretched his hand out to let Tang Fang walk ahead of him. "Let's go."
Tang Fang just smiled politely and didn't say anything.
Greedy Wolf had called all of them, so all 18 Court Chiefs quickly rushed to the main court.
They behaved like they didn't know each other at all, and weren't friends. Nobody looked at one another, and their focus was
solely on Greedy Wolf.
The atmosphere was rather oppressive.
Greedy Wolf's aura was like a huge mountain weighing down on everyone else, making it difficult for them to breathe, even though he was just sitting there. Guan Yi was indignant about this and constantly told himself that he had to replace Greedy Wolf someday!
But when he was actually faced with Greedy Wolf himself, he was still fairly fearful. It was a fear that came from deep within his heart.
"Why, is something bothering you?" Greedy Wolf asked as he looked across all 18 of them, and rested his gaze on Guan Yi's face for a moment. "If something is bothering you, you can tell me about it."
Nobody dared to reply him.
They didn't even dare to look Greedy Wolf in the eye. Their heads were bowed and they cupped their fists together politely. It was as if they were afraid that all the
secrets of their heart would be exposed if they met his eye.
Standing in front of Greedy Wolf was the same as standing before the Demon King. The authoritative aura they exuded was something they possessed naturally.
Nobody said anything, so Greedy Wolf nodded.
"Since there's nothing bothering you, then I have something for all of you to do." Greedy Wolf leaned against his stony throne and seemed rather lazy, but the aura he exuded was still terrifying.
"I'm looking for something," he said flatly. "But I have forgotten where I've placed it."
