Shoosh!
Suddenly the tongue on the stone wall moved. It actually wanted to pull its tongue back in but since it could only move a little, it got stuck instead.
Xu Que was amused as he realised that the creature within the stone wall was afraid of the Sword Spirit!
He said teasingly, "Ah, great deity who is trying to hide, do you still want to come out?"
"Eh? Who is disturbing this deity's deep sleep?" the creature immediately answered. "Oh, it's you, boy. You still dare to come back? If this deity hadn't been asleep, it would have come out and taught you a lesson."
It was quite obvious that the creature was pretending to be calm by claiming that he had been asleep earlier.
"You're afraid of the Sword Spirit, right? Haha!" Xu Que grinned. "You have the audacity to call yourself a deity when you're actually frightened by my sidekick? Hmm… looks like you don't have the qualification to be my sidekick either, then!"
