1274 Conditions and a Deal (2/2)

”You tell me what I wanna know, and I'll fulfill three of your wishes,” Tang Ahlang said. ”Of course, one wish must be to kill the one you've given your allegiance to, that King Yama whatever. As for the other two wishes, you can tell me later.”

Black Snake narrowed his eyes. He always liked schemes and tricks, so his mind quickly moved when he heard Tang Ahlang's words, thinking about how to rid himself of the predicament and how to get more benefits for himself.

His hatred for King Yama was sky-high, indeed. He knew that he had been abandoned given what had transpired in the previous battle. He recalled how loyal he was to him, treating the man as his most important person, yet he didn't expect to be just a pawn in his eyes.

”What do you want to know,” Black Snake calmly asked.

”Where's the nest of this King Yama whatever, and where's the den of the Darkwind, exactly?” asked Tang Ahlang with a smile.

Black Snake was silent for a few minutes before he tilted his head up and shouted fiercely, ”YAMA, don't blame me for paying back what you did to me. You're the one who abandoned me and my brothers first!”

After roaring, he immediately tilted down his head to look at Tang Ahlang and said in a deep voice, ”The central command of the Darkwind is only 200 nautical miles away. But the place doesn't exist on the satellite map since the entire Yama Island is fully covered by arrays and no outsiders can find it.”

”So, who's this King Yama, exactly? And how many experts are there in the Darkwind organization?” Tang Ahlang immediately asked again.

”Yama is not from this world, and he's not the only one. His 18 underlings and I are not from this world, either,” Black Snake explained. ”We're from the Nine Nether Underworld, a place for vengeful spirits that can never enter the six paths of reincarnation. Yama has an honorable status in the Nine Nether as one of the three leaders in the Underworld. We accidentally discovered a space crack, so we built a secret passage. However, it was easy to come out but very difficult to go back in. Of course, there's a way to work around it, albeit the cost that must be paid is quite great. Not to mention that we all like this place, so none of us is willing to go back unless it is a last resort. As for how many experts there are in the Darkwind, aside from Yama whose cultivation is unfathomable, there are his 18 henchmen and hundreds of ghost Ghostkin cultivators cultivated by Yama himself.”

Tang Ahlang narrowed his eyes and thoughts kept popping out in his mind. The matter involved two worlds, so he felt that he must report it to his Master.

Immediately after, he grabbed a communicator and dialed Tang Xiu's communicator number.

”It's me, Ah Lang.” Quickly, Tang Xiu's low and deep voice came out from the phone.

”There's an unexpected development here, Master,” said Tang Ahlang respectfully. ”The leader of the Darkwind is a man called King Yama and he's not a human on Earth, but from the Nine Nether Underworld. We got this information from one of his men we've captured.”

”Send me your coordinates. Don't act rashly for the time being. I'll catch up with you immediately,” Tang Xiu said.

”Order received!” Tang Ahlang replied. After he sent his position coordinates, he looked back at Black Snake and asked, ”Is this Yama guy you just mentioned really strong?”

”He can become one of the leaders in the Nine Nether, so he naturally has an unfathomable cultivation level.” Black Snake nodded. ”Further, he excels at array formation and has deep attainments on this aspect. He was the one who arranged the arrays around the 1st hidden island. Although I have no idea how you cracked this array, I think you understand his adeptness on this aspect.”

Tang Ahlang nodded in response and said, ”You've told me what I wanna know, so tell me the remaining two conditions!”

Black Snake thought for a while and then said, ”Spare my life and take me to the place Yama will meet his demise. This is… the conditions I want.”

”Hahaha, you seem to really hate that King Yama whatever.” Tang An couldn't help but laugh. ”Well, it's no surprise to me, though. You were loyal to him, yet he regarded you like trash and threw you away. That's something painful to bear and will cause deep hatred no matter who the person is. If anything, you're truly really pitiful, you know.”

Me? Pitiful?

Black Snake closed his eyes with a pained heart, but the killing intent radiating from him became stronger.

Tang Ahlang didn't bother to pay attention to him again. He turned to look at Tang Jin's group of five and said in a deep voice, ”Pass my order to the others to rest and recuperate well. Order the recon team to go immediately and survey 200 nautical miles in all directions. Tell them to look for something particular and abnormal. Keep in mind to return immediately and report to me once you've found a suspicious spot.”

”Understood!”

Tang Jin's group of five nodded and went to execute the order quickly.

After half a day, hundreds of scouts returned and Tang Ahlang figured out the exact position of Yama Island. However, as Black Snake mentioned, the location was covered by arrays. If the scouts didn't have powerful strength and formidable escaping techniques, they would have been stranded and trapped in that location.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A figure flickered and moved lightning-fast from a distance. As Tang Xiu came to the 1st hidden island, he stood in front of Tang Ahlang and said in a deep voice, ”Brief me the specific situation.”

”Understood!” Tang Ahlang replied respectfully.
