"Why?"
Ao Yi frowned, not understanding the sudden show of goodwill.
"We're duty-bound to eradicate demons and uphold the Way. There's no room for so many 'whys.' You dragon, your heart is too dirty." Lu Bei sneered, looking disdainful.
His decision to assist Ao Yi had nothing to do with the Prime Minister. Aside from his pure love for the God of War, who was in a rage and wanted to slaughter a minotaur to vent, there was also the intention of taking advantage of the situation to gain a favor.
The primary tasks of the two main lines have been accomplished: the source of the curse has been brought to light, and the hidden hand behind everything is the Reincarnation Heart Monarch. As for the task of lifting the curse, if nothing goes awry, killing the Reincarnation Heart Monarch would naturally lift the curse.
The fate of the Reincarnation Heart Monarch is sealed whether he decides to submit or resist. It would be a good bargain even to sell this favor.
