Chapter 304 Making Further Progress (1/2)
Xiao Bing said in a cold voice, “Be clear that I won’t agree to your first condition.”
Blood Wolf said, “Of course. I understand. I have no ambition for gaining the position of Sect Master because I am convinced by your ability and prestige. I just don’t like your leadership style. If we can be on the same page, I would still like to consider you as my Sect Master and I will take the punishment for what I have done before.”
Xiao Bing said, “We are different people.”
Blood Wolf nodded and said, “Yes, we are different. In this case, Sect Master should consider the second point I mentioned. If I become the new Sect Master, I promise I will treat all the members well and greatly develop our sect. Maybe one day, we will bring Buddhism to their knees. We will become the biggest organization in the dark world, and make the whole world tremble. You established Dragon Gate. Don’t you want to see it become the greatest?”
Xiao Bing rubbed his nose and asked, “Do I have other options?”
Blood Wolf shook his head and said coldly, “People seldom have any choices in life. You are lucky enough to have two options today. Has God ever given me a second choice in my life? No! My life has always been a single-choice question.”
Xiao Bing said, “Actually, you can still make a choice now. Start over and follow me in the Dragon Gate. You will have plenty of time to make up for the mistakes you have made.”
“It’s too late!” Blood Wolf said stubbornly. “Since I have already taken this bloody road, I cannot turn back. Moreover, I’ve never believed I was wrong in the past. If I was wrong, I would have been eaten by the vicious monsters 20 years ago. Sect Master, now that you have come to Jiang City, you’d better stay here and never go back. Don’t force me to resort to arms. You will be hurt, and so will the people around you.”
Blood Wolf turned around and walked into the darkness. His body was so straight, just like his hair, that no one in the world could bend his spine. He was a dignified and proud man. However, he embarked on a different road from Xiao Bing. Even if it was destined to lead to the unending darkness, Blood Wolf did not care at all. Even if death was in front of him, even if he had to be against the whole world, he had to go forward.
He was a blood wolf, a peerless ferocious wolf that would keep fighting till the end!
After Blood Wolf disappeared, Yezi finally felt relieved. She took a deep breath to calm down. Then she looked at Xiao Bing and asked worriedly, “Is that person your enemy?”
Xiao Bing answered, “Not previously, maybe in the future.”
Yezi looked worried. “He looks terrible. I feel… I don’t know how to say. I feel he was the most terrible person I have ever seen. As if he won’t give up until he destroys the world. Brother Bing, who is he?”
“The traitor in Dragon Gate, Blood Wolf.”
Yezi was shocked, “Was he the one who killed Sister Peiya…”
“Yes!” Xiao Bing nodded and said, “You are right about one thing. He is a terrible person who will never give up until he destroys the whole world. He feels that the world has betrayed him and he wants it pay. He is a terrible person, but he’s also a pitiful person. Alas… Sometimes, it is difficult to determine if some people are good or bad. This is fate!”
Yezi asked, “What are you going to do?”
Xiao Bing was silent, sitting down on the step, holding his thighs, and looking at the stars in the sky. Yezi sat beside him. She snuggled up to Xiao Bing and said softly, “I don’t want to be a burden to you.”
Xiao Bing forced a smile. He did not expect Yezi to see through him. In the depths of his heart, Xiao Bing naturally wanted to stop Blood Wolf and avenge his brothers, but now he had scruples and bonding. If those people didn’t know Yezi, he could be more flexible—He could kill them. Even if he could not, he could run away and wait for another chance.
However, now that they knew of Yezi’s existence, Xiao Bing was afraid that even if there was only a one percent possibility, they would still try and hurt Yezi because she was everything to him.
But if he did nothing, how would he explain himself to Su Xiaoxiao and Lil Bei seeing he had promised them he would avenge Peiya? How would he fulfill his promise? If Peiya and Old Lei in the netherworld knew what he did, how would he answer for it?
Xiao Bing said, “The people in the Dragon Gate are not so easy to control. Even though Old Lei and Peiya have died, once Blood Wolf replaces me and tries to violate the original rules I made for the sect that we can’t harm national interests, those people will not obey him. We should live our lives since I am not interested in those things anymore. I really want to see how he will make the world tremble.”
Yezi asked, “What about Peiya and Brother Lei? How will you avenge them?”
Xiao Bing said, “Vengeance doesn’t come cheap.”
Yezi looked at Xiao Bing with tearful eyes and asked, “Have you ever thought of Xiaoxiao? What about your promise to her? Haven’t you promised to avenge her sister?”
