Vol V Chapter 139

"Your Majesty, the great Void Mask, you're the protector of all the newly-arisen things in the world, the advocator of change and improvement. You're the creator of new life and the king who presided over a great covenant. Please allow us to pay you our highest respect!"

Sui Xiong sat on the throne, feeling somewhat uncomfortable as the entire body of high-level officials of Grey Tower City, led by old Mr. Hart, worshipped him as their way of paying tribute to him.

Originally, he did not want this. But the Hart family always did things by the book. Their patriarch, Mage Hart, said that since His Majesty had come to see them, then everyone was obliged to follow the necessary protocol in welcoming him. It did not matter what Sui Xiong intended to do after the reception for him was done.
