Chapter 831: All is Fair in Love and War (2/2)

”You won't get away with this, you bastard!” Shen Xing screamed as she was launched into the air.

Tang Wulin merely smiled as the sound of threats vanished into the distance. The Skyglide 17 aircraft then instantly accelerated and headed straight back toward the demonic island.

The aircraft passed through the invisible barrier, and slowly descended onto the island. This was already the third aircraft that Tang Wulin had stolen back to this place. However, on this occasion, it was a complete aircraft as opposed to a convertible one.

After the plane landed on the ground, Tang Wulin was surprised to find that aside from Old Demon Nightmare and Old Demon Scourge, there was another tall and broad old man waiting for him.

In the face of Shen Yue and the Northsea Legion, Tang Wulin was able to control the entire situation, but after seeing the expressions on the faces of the three old demons after disembarking from the plane, a sense of foreboding immediately welled up in his heart.

”Clap, clap, clap!” Old Demon Scourge applauded, ”Well done, you did it!”

Tang Wulin cast his gaze toward Old Demon Nightmare. ”I did what you asked, so it's time you released my friends, isn't it?”

Old Demon Nightmare shrugged in response. ”No problem. I'm a man of my word, and I'll release your friends.”

Tang Wulin faltered slightly upon hearing this. He didn't think that Old Demon Nightmare would suddenly be so easy-going. He asked in an urgent voice, ”Where are they?”

Old Demon Nightmare chuckled, ”Well, while it's true that I did release them, I released them to Gluttony. Oh, by the way, this is Old Demon Gluttony. He's been itching to get in on the action after watching me torture all of you for so long. From now on, your friends are his playthings.”

”You!” Tang Wulin glowered at Old Demon Nightmare in an infuriated manner.

Old Demon Gluttony said in a raspy voice, ”Don't worry, I'm not as cruel as him. At the very least, I wouldn't stoop to using things like aphrodisiacs. I won't ask you to do much, either; as long as you can accomplish the task I set for you, I'll release them.”

After a brief surge of rage, Tang Wulin quickly calmed himself down. He had already guessed that these old demons wouldn't have released his friends so easily, and he had to keep his cool in this situation.

He turned to Old Demon Gluttony with a cold expression. ”What do you want me to do?”

A fanatic gleam suddenly appeared in Old Demon Gluttony's eyes. ”It's nothing much; I only have one hobby in life, and that's to eat. That's why they call me Old Demon Gluttony. As long as you can eat all of the food I provide to you, I'll release them.”

Eat? A peculiar look instantly appeared on Tang Wulin's face. Was there a simpler task in this world for him? If he were asked what his forte was, the first thing Tang Wulin would think of would be his ability to eat.

As for his refinement, he was indeed supremely talented, but he was still only a sixth-rank blacksmith, so all seventh-rank blacksmiths and above were superior to him in that field. In contrast, Tang Wulin didn't think that there was any human being on the entire Douluo Continent that could match him in an eating contest.

”Alright, what do I have to eat?” Tang Wulin asked.

Old Demon Gluttony stepped forward before laying a hand on Tang Wulin's shoulder, and both of them disappeared in a flash.

Following their departure, Old Demon Scourge turned to Old Demon Nightmare, and said, ”Nightmare, I think this kid set a new record! He's successfully crossed the ocean, infiltrated the Northsea Legion base, and stolen back an aircraft in just three months and six days!”

Old Demon Nightmare nodded and counted on his fingers. ”I think you're right; he's the fastest to have done all of this in over 1,500 years. That fat kid also managed to cross the sea, but he got killed as soon as he tried to infiltrate the base. Looks like this mission really is impossible for him, so I'll have to give him a new one. But then again, that's only to be expected. That Tang Wulin really is fit to be the captain of this team.”

Old Demon Scourge mused, ”We have to think of better ways to torture him. He's so exceptional in every department; I love little freaks like him! We have to find his weakness and really exploit it!”

Old Demon Nightmare harrumphed coldly, ”You're the most inhumane out of all of us.”

Old Demon Scourge countered, ”You say that like you're a philanthropist.”

”Scourge, how long do you think it'll take for him to pass Gluttony's test?” Old Demon Nightmare asked.

Old Demon Scourge suddenly shuddered. ”That bastard is way too disgusting; please don't talk about him.”

Tang Wulin's entire world blurred, and when it became clear again, he found himself situated in a forest. Of course, this was a forest that was filled with vitality in the valley.
