When everyone's eyes turned to him, the Eastern King smiled faintly and said: "Why are you all looking at me like this?"
"The Eastern King's power is formidable and not inferior to the Ancient Heavenly Emperor. We are impressed."
Zhunti spoke up.
He referred to the Ancient Heavenly Emperor, not the current Celestial Emperor.
Obviously, he didn't think that the Great Emperor Ziwei could compare to the Eastern King.
Zhunti, deep down, looked down on the Great Emperor Ziwei.
The Eastern King could see through his thoughts; he said mildly, "It's just the bravery of a mere warrior, hardly worth mentioning. The current Celestial Emperor is a natural leader, someone to be admired."
Mentioning the Great Emperor Ziwei, a trace of disdain flashed in Zhunti's eyes.
He smiled gently, saying nothing.
However, the crowd could tell his meaning from his eyes.
Obviously, he was quite dismissive of the current Celestial Emperor.
Sun Wukong's eyes flashed fiercely, ready to act.
