That familiar tone, that familiar action.
Ye Zichen looked at the arrogant dwarf. He hadn't guessed it would really be him.
To be able to meet an old friend in such a harsh environment was really something to be excited about. However, Ye Zichen quickly wiped his surprise away, raised his hand, and slapped the dwarf on the head.
"You'd better shut up!"
Ye Zichen absolutely wasn't angry. This was just his way of greeting the dwarf.
Ye Zichen was certain that if he remembered their first meeting, the dwarf would definitely reminisce about that familiar feeling, and that familiar slap.
It felt just like before, just as painful.
Ye Zichen looked at his reddened palm and recalled that familiar sensation. He couldn't help but reminisce.
"You …. How rude!" The dwarf glared at him and roared.
He was the Great Demon Pilar! Demons reigned supreme over all other races. How could he allow someone to touch the back of his noble head?
However, with his appearance and height, even when he was angry, he still looked comical.
Threatening?
That didn't exist at all!
"Aiyo, look at you. Why are you so angry? I'm just saying hello to you." Ye Zichen chuckled and patted him on the shoulder. "Don't tell me that slap just now didn't give you the slightest sense of familiarity?"
Familiarity!
The dwarf pursed his lips and muttered to himself for a moment. He really did feel a bit familiar.
"Hmph, the Great Mister Pilar will let you off this time."
"No problem, Shorty!"
"Call me the Great Mister Pilar, or Lord Demon!"
"No problem, Shorty!"
… …
… …
… …
In front of the bonfire.
Ye Zichen and Pilar sat against opposite walls. From the entrance, they could still see the raging storm outside.
Pilar wanted to resist when Ye Zichen called him "Shorty," but Ye Zichen ignored his attempts. In the end, he could only let Ye Zichen call him that. However, he still repeated that he was the Great Demon.
"Shorty!"
"Call me the Great Mister Pilar, or Lord Demon!" Pilar was furious, but he couldn't beat Ye Zichen in martial arts. He could only sulk. "What?"
"The Time Corridor is moving, right? When will we be able to leave this place?"
"The great Pilar doesn't know!"
Ye Zichen couldn't help but slap Pilar's head from afar. Pilar was infuriated, but when he looked at this powerful guy with no sense of propriety, all he could do was silently urge himself not to bicker with him.
Pilar swore that if Ye Zichen dared act so impudently in his kingdom, he'd definitely pay the price.
"Hey, you're quite an interesting fellow."
Ye Zichen leaned against the wall and grinned at Pilar. "You're clearly just a little dwarf with no magical power, yet you insist on calling yourself a lord and calling yourself a demon."
"The great Pilar is a devil!"
"Is that so? Why didn't the great Mr. Devil have the slightest bit of demonic energy? When I was reading in the Modern Realm, the Demon Race was one of the most powerful races, almost comparable to the God Race. "
"Pah! How can the despicable God Race compare to our Demon Race?"
At the mention of the Extraterritorial Celestial Race, Pilar spat out.
Ye Zichen saw thick hatred in his eyes. It was obvious he knew about the God Race, and he'd held a grudge against them for a long time.
His hateful gaze made it seem as if he wanted to skin the gods alive.
"I get the feeling you have a story with the God Race. Do you want to tell me?"
"Why would the great Pilar tell a low-level creature like you about such things?"
Snorted Pilar. Ye Zichen raised his hand, and Pilar hurriedly covered the back of his head. His expression was as comical as it could be.
Ye Zichen laughed, then lowered his hand.
"Alright then. A low-level creature like me shouldn't provoke the great Mr. Devil."
"At least you know what's good for you!"
Pilar forced himself to snort coldly, but he'd forgotten how he'd reacted to Ye Zichen, a low-level creature, with just a wave of his hand.
"Hey ….."
After a long moment of silence, Pilar suddenly waved at Ye Zichen.
Ye Zichen glanced at him, then saw Pilar licking his lips and muttering to himself, as if he found it difficult to speak.
"Do you have any food for the Great Devil?"
"What?"
Ye Zichen froze. Although Pilar's voice was soft, Ye Zichen heard him clearly. Ye Zichen was astonished that Pilar actually needed to eat.
In truth, Ye Zichen truly believed that this guy was a demon!
To the outside world, demons were the symbol of evil. Only a true demon like him, or a half-baked demon who was working hard to become one, would talk about them all the time.
He was rather surprised that a dignified demon could actually eat food.
Pilar's face flushed red, but he gnashed his teeth and glared at Ye Zichen viciously.
"The great Pilar wants some food from you. Don't worry, the great Pilar will definitely make it up to you in the future."
"We're already so familiar with each other, so there's no need to keep putting on airs. No matter what you say, in my heart, you're just a dwarf, aren't you? " Ye Zichen sighed and laughed. "How about this? Let's call each other the same. You call me 'Big Bro,' and I'll call you 'Little Bro,' and I'll give you food."
"The great Pilar can't accept such an insult!"
"Then you can just go hungry!"
With that, Ye Zichen pulled a few slices of ham and bread from his spatial ring. In truth, he wasn't hungry at all. He'd only done this in order to entice the dwarf.
The instant the food appeared, Pilar's mouth watered like a tidal wave.
"Alright, the great Pilar agrees to your request."
"Hey, that won't do. Do you remember what I said just now?" Ye Zichen laughed.
Of course Pilar remembered!
But calling a human from the lower realms "Big Bro," he really ….
"Big Bro, please give your little brother some food," Pilar raised his hands above his head, his eyes filled with sincerity and entreaty.
Ye Zichen smiled, then tossed the bread and ham at him.
It was obvious that Pilar was starving. He devoured the bread and two slices of ham in no time.
"You humans really know how to enjoy life!"
