Both stared at one another in complete silence, for only a moment, before Jiang Cheng breaks it by laughing out loud, almost falling to the ground, while clutching to his stomach. "You? You're a God?"
Wei Wuxian scowls at Jiang Cheng, "Am I really that untrustworthy?" he asks not amused. "I have no reason to lie to you!"
"Oh yeah? Then prove it, show me something Godly like!" Jiang cheng challenges.
"And how would you like me to do that? The last person I proved that I was a God to end up throwing everything, stomach Acid included, up for twenty-four hours! Would you like that same fate?"
"Then how can I ever believe that you're a god?" Jiang Cheng pouts.
"BY TAKING MY WORD FOR IT! Also by just thinking about everything I've done ever since you've met me at Yunmeng Jiang. Nothing about me screams human as I'm told."
Jiang Cheng does think about the scary stories of Wei Wuxian's show of power and his first encounter of it at Nightless City. That isn't a human amount of power. 'Could anyone contain that much power if they're human?' he thought, "Okay if I were to take your word for it, is that all you wanted to tell me?"
Gulping for a moment before he says, "No there is one more thing."
Jiang Cheng sings, 'Of course there is!' he thought. "Alrighty then, out with it!"
"I am also known as the Yiling Patriarch back in the day."
Another silence falls over them as this news was brought to light, Jiang Cheng was trying to steady his breathing as he asked, "Then does that mean...." but he couldn't finish that sentence but unconsciously raises a hand to touch the middle of his chest where is golden core is.
"...Yes..."
Jiang Cheng couldn't take it much more, or rather no know what to think, so he did what he does best, he turns away and walks away from Wei Wuxian.
To be released soon!!!
