His n was simple. He would settle the problem he was facing first. After that, he would let fate take its course and see where he would end up in.
He did not care how the Heavenly Pce or the Underworld would be. All he cared about was his own family, his wife and his daughter. They were the only ones deserving his care. As long as they were safe, nothing else mattered to him.
Jiang Ning looked at them from afar, but he was immersed in his own thoughts.
"When will you begin the battle?" Peter Pan asked.
"As soon as I can." Jiang Ning looked at him. "If I drag this on any longer, it might cause unintended consequences."
"Then, there is no better time to move than now." Peter Pan clenched his fists, and murderous intent welled within his eyes.
Jiang Yao was his bottom line nobody should ever cross, or he would show them what hell on earth was like. She was his daughter, and he would brook no harm to fall on her.
As for Peter Pan, Jiang Yao was Peter his one and only disciple. He would risk his life if it meant saving her. He would never allow anyone to harm his precious disciple, not even Jiang Hing.
They looked at each other and decided to make a move right at that very moment in case something unwanted were to happen.
Jiang Ning made a call to Brother Gou, telling him to take hisckeys to Prosperity City. At the same time, he and Peter Pan would take the awakened fighters to the same city as well. They promised to rendezvous at the gates of the Underworld.
Once thatmand was made, everyone could feel the tension rising in the air. Even though a lot of them were not directly involved in the operation, they could feel that it would be the most violent and bloody one they had ever seen. They had to seed in the mission as failure was not forgivable. If they were to fall, the whole of Eastern Lake would fall with them.
At the same time, Greedy Wolf had returned to his throne, while Tang Fang was kneeling before him.
"Do you know why I summoned you here?"
"I do not, My King." "Is that so?"
Tang Fang''s heart skipped a beat. He could not bring himself to look up at Greedy Wolf, but he knew his king must be looking at him, with his terrible eyes that resembled two little whirlpools. Should he even take a look at them, Tang Fang knew he would be sucked into them in just a mere moment.
"My King, what shall your orders be? Ask, and I shall serve." Tang Fang bowed his head lower as a show of higher respect.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
He knew Greedy Wolf and Jiang Ning must be tangled in a chess game of their own right now, but he had no desire to be a mere pawn on the chessboard.
Suddenly, Greedy Wolf stood up and came closer to Tang Fang, then he patted Tang Fang''s shoulder. "You do not seem to fear me." Greedy Wolf smiled. "And I mean that literally. The one you fear is Demon King, but not me."
Tang Fang kept his silence. He did not want to answer that.
"Who do you think is the more terrifying one? Me or
Demon King?"
Tang Fang paused for a moment, and he answered, "You are Demon King, My King. You are him, and he is you. You are one and the same, All I know is that your orders are mymand. That is all. I care not about anything else!"
Greedy Wolfughed loudly as if he was satisfied with that answer. When he tooked at Tang Fang again, it was like he was looking at a loyal dog that would do anything to please his master. "I can give you a chance to show your loyalty to me."
"Your orders are mymand, My King!" Tang Fang dered.
A strange, eerie smile curled Greedy Wolf''s lips. Suddenly, he mmed his palm against Tang Fang''s chest, and his nails dug into his flesh like needles.
His nails were centimeters away from Tang Fang''s heart, and he could feel the heartbeating from within his ribcage.
Tang Fang''s eyes were as wide as saucepans. He opened his mouth, but he could not even say a word. In the end, he blurted, "You wish to have my life, My King?" Tang Fang stared at him. Greedy Wolf did not answer his question. Instead, he injected a ball of ck smoke into Tang Fang''s heart. The moment he did, Tang Fang let out a scream, and he cked out.
"I am giving you a chance at
ascension. At power. At strength." Greedy Wolf looked at Tang Fang, who was lying on the ground
motionlessly. "Treasure it
opportunity does note twice.” Then, he turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
At the same time, Brother Gou, hisckeys, Jiang Ning, Peter Pan, and the fighters met up before the Underworld''s gates.
"Say the word, and we''ll crash this party for you, Big Boss." Brother Gou sneered and gnashed his teeth. "These b*stards should have died ages ago."
He could not wait to charge into the Underworld and kill them all right at that moment.
Jiang Ning nced at him. "Worry not. We shall begin the battle soon."
