The entire gathering was focused on Shi Lang at the moment. He was directly addressing the Realm Lord, a man who had risen above every other existence among the ten thousand races. Many people wanted to close their eyes as they were expecting a sad ending to this exchange.
Shi Lang bowed and replied, "It is our honor that Your Excellency has called us here. The task to look over at such a big event is not trivial, and Your Excellency has to ensure fairness of the tournament. Thus, if someone tries to provoke others and cause a disruption it is very disrespectful to your status. This is why I had to tell this Daoist to not cause a scene. The dignity of the Realm Lord mustn't be tarnished."
The people thought he was sucking up to the Realm Lord, and the latter also asked with an amused expression, "You just said that if he had a death wish you wouldn't want to be dragged together, do you mean to say that I am a mindless creature who kills people at every other corner?"
