Chapter 752: Chapter 257 The Dirtiest Thing in the World is the Human Heart【Two-in-One】_4 Chapter 752: Chapter 257 The Dirtiest Thing in the World is the Human Heart【Two-in-One】_4 “I won’t waste my time talking with an idiot.”

The more Jiao Sansheng thought about these words, the more miserable he felt. Unable to resist, he took out a mirror and took a good look at himself.

“Even a bloody tree called me a fool… Do I really look like one?”

Jiao Sansheng was baffled the more he thought about it.

Looking at his aging but sharply-defined face in the mirror, Jiao Sansheng was filled with confusion.

Once again, he raised his cup absent-mindedly, downing the drink in one gulp, muttering, “This… This doesn’t look like a fool’s face… Not at all…”

After all, this was his appearance after he had gained some control over it. If he wanted to look younger, it was merely a matter of whether he wished to or not. It certainly wasn’t difficult at all.

But, to a tree, the human form is merely a head, two eyes, a nose, and a mouth. The fact that it could distinguish between males and females, young and old is already quite impressive. How valuable could facial features be in their eyes?

Thinking of this, Jiao Sansheng felt more depressed. He drank two more cups, suddenly feeling the alcohol buzz.

For a man of his high stature like him, one wouldn’t usually get drunk even after drinking as much as his heart desired, let alone feeling sorrow. He knew deep down, that tree’s remark had truly pierced his heart, leaving his state of mind far from perfect!

Suddenly, the space in front of Jiao Sansheng darkened, and a significantly tall figure had already taken a seat in front of him.

The approaching figure wore a straw hat, draped in a large cloak. His face and figure were concealed, but judging by his height, he appeared to be at least seven feet tall!

When he entered, his had almost brushed the top of the doorframe. His height was simply remarkable.

“What’s wrong?”

The newcomer laughed, “The future Emperor Jiao, is already looking at himself in the mirror? Are you feeling sorry for yourself?”

Jiao Sansheng said flatly, “If you dare to call me Emperor Jiao again, I swear I’ll kill you right now. Believe me or not!”

The newcomer shrugged, “I believe you, why wouldn’t I? You seem very confident. There’s no room for doubt. I have no reason not to believe you!”

“That’s why I wanted to see you.”

Jiao Sansheng, “I am fully healed! And I have even more potential than before. I’m just half a step away from the Emperor Rank. Give me one more year, and I’ll make the jump.”

The newcomer asked, “Is the healer really that good?”

“His medical skills surpass all common sense. We cannot judge him by ordinary medical standards. In my view, his skills are simply magical!”

Jiao Sansheng appeared anxious, “I owe him my life! It’s hard to repay this debt.”

“Oh, so you now owe someone a favor? You don’t even want to owe me, but you owe a human?”

The visitor seemed less interested in the miraculous cure than in the fact that Sansheng had found himself in someone’s debt.

Because he was the only one who knew how proud his clansman was.

The fact that the healer could make him feel indebted was quite a feat.

“If I didn’t think that I owed you one, why would I have sent you to get treated?! But after today, your debt is paid!”

Jiao Sansheng forcefully pulled the conversation back on track.

As for why he owed the newcomer a favor, he didn’t mention it.

Because the healer himself didn’t say it. The healer just refused the Cat Emperor.

If he said it out loud, he’d ruin the healer’s reputation.

“Sigh, everything in the past was due to karma. When I took care of you, I was actually doing it for myself. If you think you owe me a favor, that’s your business. Today, if you feel like you’ve done enough to repay me, again that’s your business… But there’s one thing I’m hearing a lot about recently. The healer’s medicine could be poisonous. Especially towards the demons, quite a few Demon Kings have died because of it.” The man said.

Jiao Sansheng sneered, “Do you believe that?”

“I don’t.”

“Then why the hell did you mention it!”

“Are you sure you haven’t been poisoned?”

“Haha…”

Suddenly, Jiao Sansheng, who always had a hunched back, straightened up. His eyes emitted a sharp light. He stared at the man in front of him and said, “Jiao Jiuxiao, if you dare insult the healer again, I’ll definitely turn against you! Right now, you’re no match for me!”

The man across him was the king of the Jiao Clan, Jiao Sansheng’s old adversary, Jiao Jiuxiao.

“I’ll go.”

Jiao Jiuxiao said solemnly.

“I’ll accompany you. You must have left the Jiao Clan headquarters secretly this time. This time is different from the previous ones, I’ll make an exception to back you up the whole way.”

Jiao Sansheng felt like a bubble of disagreement was forming in his heart.

“Thank you.”

After thinking for a while, Jiao Jiuxiao said, “Once I’m fully healed from the injury, I want to have another duel with you to put an end to the one we had back then.”

“I won’t fight! You won the fight back then, it’s a well-known fact!”

Jiao Sansheng knew exactly what Jiao Jiuxiao wanted to do and shook his head resolutely.

“Hehe, I really don’t want to be the Jiao Emperor anymore!”

Jiao Jiuxiao was filled with regret.

[Who doesn’t talk about other people behind their backs, and who doesn’t criticize people in front of them? I had quite a few feelings while writing this chapter. In the final draft, I cut out many of the insults… I think I may have been a bit over the top.]
