The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 980

“If I say yes, will everything go back to normal?”

“Who knows? You’ll only find out once you say it!” Daniel said with a friendly grin. “You’re making yourself suffer for no reason, Damian! If you just admit it and tell the truth, God might let you off easy, and then your stomach won’t hurt anymore. Wouldn’t that be great? But hey, if you want to keep feeling this pain, that’s up to you. Remember, it’s your body that hurts, not mine.”

After a moment of hesitation, Damian finally decided he couldn’t take it anymore.

“My... my bad, I’m not a good doctor.”

The moment he admitted this, the pain in his stomach vanished.

“It doesn’t hurt anymore?! Really, it doesn’t hurt!” Damian exclaimed, astonished and dancing around with excitement.

“You see? I told you this was God’s punishment! Now do you believe me?”

“I believe! I believe! I won’t lie again! If I do, I’m going straight to hell!”

Damian finally gave in. Daniel turned to Aaron and asked with a smile, “Hey Aaron, now that Damian admitted he was lying, are you still going to hold out? Your stomach can’t take much more! Just because you haven’t died yet doesn’t mean you’re off the hook. God’s initial punishment was a lesson, and lessons are meant to correct mistakes. You’re being stubborn, and if you keep it up, God might not be so lenient next time. You have one last chance to straighten things out.”

Daniel pointed to the piece of jade in his hand and asked Aaron, “Is this really jade? Does it actually worth eight million dollars?”

Aaron’s stomach pain was excruciating. There was no way he’d lie now. After all, he could handle pain but only had one life.

“Okay, okay! It’s golden jade, worth over eight million!” he quickly admitted.

“Great!” Daniel exclaimed, turning to Grant with a grin. “Did you hear that? Aaron just confirmed it! So, you and Aaron lost the bet. You both need to bow down and show me some respect, or else you’ll be feeling more pain!”

“Ha!” Grant scoffed, rolling his eyes. “Just because you say it’s worth eight million doesn’t make it so! Even if this is really jade, you still need someone willing to pay that price for it!”
