Chapter 640
Emperor Xin and Qin Fuguang came to Pangu again and asked, "How many more monsters like this do you have?"
Pangu looked at Di Xin who was questioning him and grinned, "Not many. After all, these things are not easy to control. So, there are only the few you saw that day."
Emperor Xin looked at Pangu suspiciously, but his face was disguised so well that Emperor Xin could not see anything.
Emperor Xin had no choice but to give up this question and turn to another question, "Where did you get these monsters from? Where did you hide them? How long have you been hiding them?"
Pangu stretched his chin and smiled, "You should have read some stories about the fairy world next door. There are all kinds of strange monsters in that world. And they are all small monsters with no real strength."
"No strength? You and I both know how strong Zhang Qiling is. We can't even defeat him. How can you tell me that this is a little monster with no strength?" Emperor Xin sneered at Pangu's answer.
"Of course, I can swear to heaven!" Pangu said while pretending to raise three fingers.
Qin Fuguang couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he saw Pangu fooling them. "Do you really think we don't know you're lying?"
As Qin Fuguang waved his hand, a water curtain rose from between the three of them. On it were clearly displayed the monsters that Pangu had mentioned. They were now neatly arranged there, waiting to be sent out by their master at any time.
"Tell me how many there are?" Qin Fuguang's face was filled with rage, and his voice was deafening. He pointed his finger angrily at the scene on the water curtain, as if to expose it, and questioned Pangu, "Do you really think we can't find it? Or do you think all these years of training have been in vain! How could such a large group of monsters suddenly appear and not cause some commotion in the base!"
Facing Qin Fuguang's questioning, Pangu seemed unusually calm. He simply shrugged nonchalantly, even with a faint smile on his lips. "Fuguang, don't be so excited! Besides, aren't they staying there quietly without moving? Why are you so excited? Take care of yourself!"
Qin Fuguang looked at Pangu's nonchalant look, and his anger grew stronger, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute him, and could only be so angry that he couldn't speak.
At this moment, Emperor Xin, who was standing by, could no longer bear to watch. He stepped forward, pulled Qin Fuguang behind him, and then faced Pangu and said in a deep voice, "They are indeed staying quiet now, but can you guarantee that they will stay quiet tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow? The day after tomorrow? What about next month?"
Emperor Xin's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Pangu's heart hard, making his originally relaxed smile freeze in an instant.
However, after only a moment, Pangu regained his composure. He waved his hand nonchalantly, then walked to the table and sat down leisurely. He poured a cup of tea for himself, Di Xin, and Qin Fuguang, and said with a smile, "Calm down and have some tea!"
Emperor Xin suppressed his inner discontent and slowly sat down. However, Qin Fuguang, standing beside him, was clearly less restrained. He unceremoniously waved away the teacup Pangu offered him. With a crisp "bang," the teacup plummeted to the ground like a meteor, shattering into countless pieces in an instant. The resounding sound echoed throughout the cave, lingering for a long time.
Emperor Xin's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, and he took in the fleeting murderous intent in Pangu's eyes. Although this murderous intent was short-lived, Emperor Xin keenly captured it.
"I think it's best not to drink this tea!" Qin Fuguang's voice was filled with undisguised anger. "You made such a major decision without telling us. I really can't believe if there are other hidden tricks in this cup of tea."
Facing Qin Fuguang's accusations, Pangu seemed quite calm. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing an unfathomable smile. "We are partners and friends! How could I do anything to my friend?"
"Friends?" Qin Fuguang sneered, "I don't think so! Maybe in your eyes, we are just scapegoats for your sins!"
Pangu had heard of Qin Fuguang's often violent temper, but this was the first time Pangu had ever seen him so ruthlessly mad at him.
However, after being contradicted by Qin Fuguang again and again, Pangu's anger gradually rose like a piece of dry wood that had been ignited.
Emperor Xin sat leisurely by the side, watching the conversation between Qin Fuguang and Pangu with great interest. Far from offering any assistance to Pangu, he deliberately took sides, his expression tinged with sarcasm as he spoke slowly, "You should understand Fuguang's temper. He's always been like that. Even I sometimes get scolded by him."
As Emperor Xin spoke, he looked at Pangu with a half-smile and continued slowly, "Besides, you've been hiding this matter from us for a long time! It's understandable that he lost his temper. You wouldn't be so petty as to argue with him about this, right?"
Pangu suppressed his displeasure and looked at Emperor Xin with a forced smile, cursing inwardly, "What a sinister fellow!" However, he pretended to be nonchalant and responded, "Of course not! It was indeed wrong of me to hide this from you. So, I will apologize to you here with tea instead of wine!"
However, Qin Fuguang's expression remained gloomy. He was clearly dissatisfied with Pangu's explanation and even a little angry. He stared at Pangu with wide eyes and demanded, unflinchingly, "Is this your reason? Don't you understand the implications of leaving the cave unguarded for those monsters? Do you intend for the entire base to become food for those monsters?"
Pangu was startled by Qin Fuguang's questioning. His eyes widened in disbelief. He quickly explained, "That's not true. You misunderstood me! I really didn't treat the people in the base as food for the monsters! I just didn't want anyone to discover those monsters. After all, they're too dangerous."
Qin Fuguang sneered and interrupted Pangu: "You don't want people to find out? Then why don't you arrange for someone to guard the entrance of the cave! Or seal the entrance? You are playing with all our lives by doing this!"
Pangu's face turned awkward, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed by Qin Fuguang's aggressiveness, but on the surface he still had to appease Qin Fuguang, "This... I really didn't consider this at the time. I just thought that those monsters were locked up very tightly, so there shouldn't be any problems..."
Qin Fuguang slammed the table, stood up, glared at Pangu, and shouted, "What do you think? Just because you think it's okay, does that mean it's okay? Do you know how much disaster those monsters will bring to the base if they escape?"
