Kings are selfish people, but they are also absolutely rational beings. To earn their respect, relying on flattery or a formidable background is futile. You must first have the strength to converse with them as equals and not provoke their disdain.
Huanglong Immortal Monarch's change from unwilling to talk to inviting Tang Luo to the Dragon Palace was not only because of the outcome of the battle but also due to the tacit understanding among the strong.
After all, it's just the Minor Spiritual Realm. If Tang Luo were an inexperienced new king overestimating himself, Huanglong Immortal Monarch would not hesitate to make him back down by displaying power.
But if he were a formidable king with unpredictable means, then some matters could be discussed.
The recent displeasure should be blown away by the great wind. The host, who has shown his stance, still maintains his dignified manner, but only to secure the greatest benefit.
