Chapter 1620: The Only Other Choice is Death (2/2)
“I didn’t say you could leave.” Huang Xiaolong slowly said.
A myriad of different expressions filled the faces of the crowd.
Gu Zheng’s face turned frosty and he chuckled, “Brat, do you think that I won’t be able to do anything to you just because you know Jia Yuan? Do you think that I won’t kill you just because Jia Yuan is here?”
“I’ll tell you now, my master is the grand elder of the Gu Family. Lord Wang Sinan from the Netherworld King’s Organization is my master’s friend. Lord Wang Sinan is the overseer of hundreds of planes and even Jia Yuan is only one of his subordinates!”
Gu Zheng’s icy voice resounded through the air.
He wanted to tell Huang Xiaolong that if he was still unwilling to let them leave, he could directly eliminate Huang Xiaolong without a care for Jia Yuan’s identity.
It was just a mere Jia Yuan…
With his identity and the relationship Lord Wang Sinan had with his master, Gu Zheng really didn’t hold Jia Yuan in high regard.
“Oh, I see. It’s just lord Wang Sinan.” Huang Xiaolong didn’t seem flustered in the slightest.
Some bigshot in the Netherworld King’s Organization? A grand elder?!
The authority level in the Netherworld King’s Organization was no secret. The person in the highest position was the Chief, followed by the senior commanders and the junior commanders. After that came the representatives of the various branches.
The representatives of each branch could be considered elders and there was a grand elder above them. Naturally, a grand elder held more power and authority than a regular elder.
Gu Fei looked at Huang Xiaolong in glee. “Are you afraid now, you brat?! Lord Wang Sinan can be considered god in the surrounding several hundred divine planes, including this! His words are the law here! In his opinion, our inspector is someone worth taking care of. I forgot to tell you, our inspector is the direct grandson of the grand elder of the Gu Family’s main branch!”
Gu Zheng raised his head haughtily and interrupted Gu Fei, “Brother Jia Yuan, I wanted to show you some respect by letting him off easily. However, I can’t do that after what he said to me.” A chilly expression appeared on his face and he sneered, “I’m feeling very uncomfortable now…”
He glared at Huang Xiaolong and said, “Little brat, you better kneel down and kowtow ten times right now. Otherwise…”
“What about it?” Huang Xiaolong couldn’t care less about him.
“Otherwise, the only other choice is death!” A terrifying light flashed through Gu Zheng’s eyes and the aura he emitted swelled rapidly. Blood red qi started to emerge from his body, as though he had turned into a massive crimson dragon.
“Death?” Huang Xiaolong couldn’t control himself and broke out in laughter. Even though his laughter seemed a little weird, he didn’t bother holding back. Raising his head, a streak of black light shot towards Gu Fei and the space between his eyebrows seemed to distort for a moment. A huge hole appeared in its place and Gu Fei, who had a delighted expression on his face, stood rooted to his spot. He stared at Huang Xiaolong with his mouth agape. He couldn’t believe what had just happened.
In the next moment, he fell towards the earth at record breaking speed.
“Ancestor!”
The members of the Gu Family yelled in shock.
Huang Xiaolong’s gaze turned to Gu Zheng and he asked, “Is this what you mean?”
Gu Zheng stared at the lifeless Gu Fei and his face turned completely black. Killing intent surged around his body and the aura he emitted seemed to strengthen by manyfolds. He snapped at Huang Xiaolong, “Since you have chosen death, you can’t blame me.”
A blood red substance was released from his body and it showed no signs of stopping.
All of a sudden, the captains behind Jia Yuan yelled, “Protect the lord! Everyone, in formation!”
Even though they already knew of Huang Xiaolong’s strength, they had to take all precautions. After all, their orders were to protect Huang Xiaolong from any harm.
Twenty thousand Netherguards charged forward and formed a mysterious formation as they surrounded Huang Xiaolong.
Looking at the scene before him, Gu Zheng snorted and stared at Jia Yuan, “Jia Yuan, are you sure about this?”
