Seeing a submission expression on his face, Xuyun then said, "we go to colosseum now?"
"What are we going to do there?"
"You went there last time. What were you trying to do?"
Sui was making a realization face. He pointed at Xuyun, smiling, "watching you!"
"Me??"
"Yes! They made a statue of you there! You remember? The best fighter and all!"
Xuyun raised his eyebrow. That mean, he went there, ready to pay tickets just to look at his statue? He himself even forgot about that. He hadn't went there since couple of years ago.
"Look! I even wear your merchandise they sold in the colosseum!"
Xuyun couldn't hold back an expression of disgust when seeing his photo on that keychain. "Let's go somewhere else!"
"Wait! Let's go to the colosseum! That is also one thing in my wish!"Sui held Xuyun's wrist and pulled him.
Xuyun wanted to say, 'you got the real person besides you, what's the statue for?' but then he paused. Instead he asked, "why is your list so many?"
Sui laughed, "there's a lot, I'm a greedy one." His grip tightened on Xuyun's arms. "But now that I'm with you, there're a lot more. I want to go to colosseum with you, to the beach too, to the practice field seeing you play with swords, to the planetarium with you too, to your junior high, to the house you grew up in…"
Listening to all his chatters made Xuyun's head hurt. But at the same time, his chest got tight too, somehow.

Like before, the colosseum filled with crowds of people. They waited for awhile in the queue, but Xuyun didn't have enough patience. He pulled himself and Sui out from the line and went straight to the front gate. He got rid of the hoodie that covered his face. The gatekeeper immediately recognized him. They called the manager.
"Sir Xuyun! Long time no see! What business do you have here?" The old man greeted him in a wide smile. His bodyguards instead, tensed up before Xuyun's strong presence.
Xuyun pushed Sui in front of him. The boy started sweating bullets. "This is my apprentice. Can you set up a stage for him? Level 1 is enough."

The room instantly became quiet like a scene in horror movies. What is this monster talking about?? All the colosseum contestants waited almost half a year before they could debut on the stage!
Besides him, Sui gave him a morse code, I-only-came-for-your-statue-not-to-get-beaten-!!
