Chapter 974 - 968: Can you take me home?
"Damn, Lu Tianxing, what kind of nonsense are you saying?"
Before Lu Tianxing could finish speaking, Tie Niu rudely interrupted him, "Boss, since you treat us as your brothers, you don’t need to say things like this. When we joined the Netherworld Mercenary Corps together, we swore to live and die together. Now you want us to abandon our brothers and escape? Are you planning to make us carry the reputation of being ungrateful traitors? I’m telling you, I, Tie Niu, can’t do it."
"Tie Niu is right, Boss. I’ve never been afraid of death, Fu Tu said firmly. If it weren’t for you, Tie Niu and I would have died years ago. From the moment you saved our lives, we were determined to follow you, even if it’s Hell or the Ghost Gate ahead of us. Even if we die, we’ll use our bodies to pave a path for you, because we are brothers. How many strong enemies have we encountered over the years? Was any battle not a near-death experience? Yet, we still made it through each time. We fear no one and nothing. Those who offend us will be hunted down, no matter how far."
Hearing Tie Niu and Fu Tu’s words, Lu Tianxing took a deep breath and said heavily, "You’re right, we are brothers. We share good fortune and hardship, live and die together. If a god stands in our way, we kill the god; if Buddha stands in our way, we kill the Buddha."
"Slam!"
The three of them clasped their hands together heavily.
In life, having one soulmate and a group of brothers who stand through life and death is enough.

After driving Fu Tu and Tie Niu to the airport, instructing them to quickly improve their strength in Modu, Lu Tianxing drove them to the airport and did not hurry back to Purple Bamboo Villa but wandered around for over an hour, figuring Mu Qingxue should have left by now before driving towards Purple Bamboo Villa.
In his heart, Lu Tianxing really didn’t want to meet Mu Qingxue, because being with her would hurt those around him and Mu Qingxue as well.
