Chapter 1627
The Hunt vige was surrounded by mountains in all directions.
Hence, before six in the evening, the vige was already engulfed in darkness.
By then, the vigers had all gone to bed.
All was silent and dark except for Alfred''s house, where the lights were still on.
Both Alfred and Zeke were having a drink while Alfred''s granddaughter, Jeannie, sat next to them and
looked admiringly at Zeke.
In her heart, she made a vow.
When I grow up, I want to practice martial arts and work for the River God.
A whileter, Zeke looked at the time and said, “It''s about time to start.”
Alfred agreed, “Yes, let''s begin.”
The two men walked into the courtyard.
Jeannie wanted to follow them, but Alfred told her off, so she had to return to the house and go to bed.
In the courtyard, Old Skeleton was tied up and was still unconscious.
Alfred gave him a kick, and he woke up almost instantly.
The moment his eyes opened, he started shouting, “You despicable Sun Walker! If you dare, release
me and fight me one-on-one! Just because you have the whole vige here on your side, it doesn''t
mean anything if you don''t have the guts to fight me fair and square! Hmph! You''d better not let the
Netherworld know that I have been captured by you. If not, a huge army wille after you!”
His words pissed Alfred off, and thetter sent another kick at Old Skeleton. “You b*stard! If you utter
another word, I will execute you right now!”
Zeke stopped Alfred. “Forget it! Let him do whatever he wants.”
They still needed Old Skeleton to lure the warriors from the Netherworld.
If he did not make a din, there was no way their enemies woulde.
Alfred grabbed hold of Old Skeleton, leaped onto a very tall tree, and tied him to the top of the tree.
Old Skeleton''s incessant cursing had even caused all the dogs in the vige to bark wildly.
All the noises spread far and wide.
Zeke and Alfred staked out on the rooftop.
The cold wind was howling and chilled one to the bones.

However, none of the two men felt any difort.
As King ss warriors themselves, the energy within them was more than enough to withstand the
biting cold.
On the other hand, Old Skeleton was suffering.
Now that he had be disabled, his body was in poor condition.
Exposed to the chilly wind, he shivered and cursed non-stop.
Around an hourter, Alfred suddenly said in a hushed voice, “Mr. Williams, there is movement on the
west side.''
Zeke looked toward that direction, but it was dead quiet.
Nothing looked amiss.
However, upon careful observation, he could detect a ghostly figure moving fast in the dark.
The figure was heading toward them.
Zeke smirked. “So, this person is from the Netherworld? Hah! Sneaking around like that, they''re no
different from a street rat!”
The dark figure was extremely cautious. After every ten steps, they would stop and check the
surrounding before advancing forward.
At that very moment, Zeke saw from the corner of his eyes that there was another dark figure loitering
around the tree to which Old Skeleton had been tied.
Zeke did not make any sound. He simply carried on observing the figure.
The dark figure climbed up the tree stealthily like a phantom.
Evidently, it was a diversion tactic of the Netherworld.
The function of the dark figure on the west was to divert their attention while the other person''s
responsibility was to rescue Old Skeleton.
Once the figure was halfway up the tree, Zeke turned his head around slowly and smiled chillingly at
the person.
The dark figure trembled all over.
Shoot! I''ve been spotted!
His first reaction was to escape.
However, just as he was about to make his move, Zeke unleashed theary Pull.
