Xu Lei and the Fat Buddha continued walking deeper inside.
'This Celestial Palace really is huge.'
"I haven't had the chance to ask for your name yet, Senior?"
Of course, Xu Lei took the opportunity to ask, "How should I address you?"
"My Buddhist name is Yuan Kong."
The Fat Buddha smiled, patting Xu Lei's shoulder. "You can just call me Senior Brother Yuan Kong," he said. "There's no need to be so formal. We all Ascended to get here. From now on, we're all part of the Celestial Palace, all disciples of the Saint Master."
He seemed quite enthusiastic, with the air of a senior looking after a much younger brother.
'If this guy hadn't already killed me twice, I might actually be starting to like him.'
'Of course, people are complex.'
'Maybe this Yuan Kong isn't normally a bad person. Or rather, it's too soon to tell if he's bad or not. All I can say is, on the surface, his manners are decent enough.'
'But since this guy killed me twice, there's no way I'm letting him go.'
