Lord Yuan Shi became angry.
Sha Chen grew even angrier.
"What?" Lord Yuan Shi thought he had misheard, furrowed his brow, and inclined his ear to listen. "What did you just say?"
Sha Chen snorted coldly. "I said, am I supposed to show you deference?"
He repeated the sentence once more.
Yao Yue, Siti, and the Phoenix sisters behind him were all stunned. They were shocked and disbelieving, unable to fathom that Sha Chen would dare to openly and directly retaliate.
Lord Yuan Shi was even more dumbfounded. He had not expected Sha Chen to dare speak to him like this.
Once he recovered from the shock, he was beside himself with rage.
"Sha Chen, do you realize who you are speaking to? I am a Saint. You are but a mere junior, a disgraced divine general relegated here. Even the Jade Emperor would show me deference," he said.
"And yet you dare to be so disrespectful and insolent toward me?"
