In fact, Sui Xiong was left with no other choice, so out of helplessness, he had to play such tricks.
Originally, he wanted to show off his might. For instance, within a snap of his finger, he could flick those two silly big men like dust and send them flying away or something. But thinking about it, given his identity and status, if news of him fighting with mortals were to spread, and furthermore, with these two foolish men falling short of even the standard of junior adventurers… this could almost become a scandal.
Of course, Sui Xiong was not afraid of scandals. However, he found it quite embarrassing to create one. The people in his church had toiled hard to promote him, to create a great and just image or a mysterious and reserved image of him. Even if he could not render them help, he could at least not make trouble.
