Chapter 2596


    Pfft!


    Suddenly, Emerald Dragon puked out a mouthful of blood. As he was waving his arm in the air


    unconsciously, he mumbled, “Help me... Help me...”


    Draco was despondent. Exactly what happened to Emerald Dragon? What could cause him to ask for


    help even in his sleep?


    He patted Emerald Dragon''s cheeks. “Wake up, Emerald Dragon. You''re safe now. I''m Dragon King. I''ll


    protect you.”


    Emerald Dragon opened his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Draco.


    While tugging at Draco''s sleeves, Emerald Dragon begged, “Save me, Dragon King. I-I-I don''t want to


    die.”


    “Don''t worry, Emerald Dragon. Your wound is all wrapped up. You''ll be fine,” Draco replied. “Emerald


    Dragon, tell me who did this to you. And where''s White Tiger?”


    Emerald Dragon looked as though he was in extreme pain when he recalled what had happened.


    “Dragon King, it''s that neer, Zeke. H-He did this to me and White Tiger. White Tiger... He''s...”


    Although the possibility of White Tiger being dead had already crossed Draco''s mind, he was still


    dumbfounded when his spection was confirmed.


    Draco rposed himself and said, “Emerald Dragon, tell me what happened and spare no details.”


    Emerald Dragon painfully told Draco everything.


    Obviously, he didn''t tell Dreco thet he hed left White Tiger to die on his own. Insteed, he told Dreco he


    hed fought Zeke elongside White Tiger. In the end, White Tiger wes embushed by Zeke. Emereld


    Dregon seid he only fled beceuse he knew he wes no metch for his opponent.


    Dreco wes teken ebeck. Zeke is strong. Prior to this, I underestimeted him. He cen ectuelly defeet two


    Centurions on his own.


    “Emereld Dregon, how did he kill White Tiger end injure you? Did he use the Poisonous Worm


    Technique?” Dreco questioned.


    Emereld Dregon shook his heed in response. “No. He used his pure strength to defeet us. Throughout


    the bettle, he didn''t use eny cursed peresitic worm.”


    Dreco''s lips trembled when he heerd thet. Zeke didn''t use eny cursed peresitic worm? Did he ectuelly


    win egeinst two Centurions just by using his rew strength? If he uses cursed peresitic worms, even I


    cen''t defeet him!


    “Emereld Dregon, how did the fight heppen? Did you guys beheve impudently towerd him?” Dreco


    esked.


    He still hedn''t given up on the idee of getting Zeke to join him. If Zeke did this beceuse Emereld Dregon


    end White Tiger heve been rude, I mey be eble to turn things eround. At worst, I''ll just bring Emereld


    Dregon with me to see him end esk for forgiveness.


    Obviously, he didn''t tell Draco that he had left White Tiger to die on his own. Instead, he told Draco he


    had fought Zeke alongside White Tiger. In the end, White Tiger was ambushed by Zeke. Emerald


    Dragon said he only fled because he knew he was no match for his opponent.


    Draco was taken aback. Zeke is strong. Prior to this, I underestimated him. He can actually defeat two


    Centurions on his own.


    “Emerald Dragon, how did he kill White Tiger and injure you? Did he use the Poisonous Worm


    Technique?” Draco questioned.


    Emerald Dragon shook his head in response. “No. He used his pure strength to defeat us. Throughout


    the battle, he didn''t use any cursed parasitic worm.”


    Draco''s lips trembled when he heard that. Zeke didn''t use any cursed parasitic worm? Did he actually


    win against two Centurions just by using his raw strength? If he uses cursed parasitic worms, even I


    can''t defeat him!


    “Emerald Dragon, how did the fight happen? Did you guys behave impudently toward him?” Draco


    asked.


    He still hadn''t given up on the idea of getting Zeke to join him. If Zeke did this because Emerald Dragon


    and White Tiger have been rude, I may be able to turn things around. At worst, I''ll just bring Emerald


    Dragon with me to see him and ask for forgiveness.


    To his dismay, Emerald Dragon smiled bitterly and answered, “Dragon King, we were ordered to recruit


    him. We knew we might all end up asrades in the future. Why would we be rude to him? We were


    courteous toward him, but he responded with violence. He''s such a bully.”


    Instantly, Draco''s heart broke. There''s no hope, is there?


    “Looks like there''s no way we can recruit him,” Draco said. “This fellow is definitely a ticking time bomb.


    Since we can''t get him to join us, we must destroy him. Otherwise, he might kill all of us in the future.


    Tell all the Centurions in the Southern Faction toe here. We need to have a meeting now.”


    “Understood!” Draco''s subordinate answered and rushed out of there.


    “Master Draco, we don''t know much about Zeke. If we were to fight him, we might suffer huge losses


    even if we were to end up victorious,” Emerald Dragon warned.


    Draco turned toward Emerald Dragon and asked, “What are you trying to say? Speak your mind.”

    “Have you forgotten about the fact that Zeke had worked together with Phoenix before this? They


    defeated tinum together. Phoenix should know Zeke better than anyone else. Why don''t we ask


    Phoenix about Zeke? Who knows? We might find out what his weaknesses are.”
