When Elder Zhong threw a volley of curses at Tao Liu, it didn't seem to stir any anger in him. Instead, a mischievous smile stretched across Liu's lips. He responded in a light-hearted manner, "Usually, old man Zhong, I would not tolerate such disrespect. However, considering our shared history, I will overlook it this time." His playful grin didn't waver as he posed a teasing question, "Don't you agree that I'm the most magnanimous and forgiving individual you've ever encountered in your long life, old man?"
Elder Zhong had no choice but to clench his teeth in frustration. All the while, Tao Liu's persistent smile served as a constant irritant. He knew, however, that his words held little to no weight in this situation.
