Chapter 414. Thoroughly with those Mulberry Tree Roots, Tightly and Densely Tie Up (1)
Avaricious Wolf, Tang Mingren, was dead.
Even at the very end, Zhou Xuchuan didn’t take any chances. He stabbed Tang Mingren in the heart several times to confirm the man's death before leaving the Underground Labyrinth. When he came out and raised his sword high as if it was all over, the Northern Upper Army, who had been waiting tensely, could only cheer and rejoice.
“Sword God.”
“Fourth Generation Direct Disciple of Mount Hua Sect, Zhou Xuchuan, greets the Patriarch of the Peng Family.”
Just as he was about to join his disciple brothers and sisters, Peng Zihu approached him. He looked terrible, as if he had just waded through a battlefield.
Peng Zihu smiled proudly as he was greeted politely by an Absolute Master, one of the terrifying Empyrean Overlords.
“It’s an honor to be greeted so respectfully by someone praised as a hero of the Righteous Path, no, the murim, who's also an Empyrean Overlord on top of that. Please raise your head. I heard you appeared and helped us when we fell in danger. As a representative of the Northern Front, I would like to express my gratitude.”
"It was nothing. Are you injured anywhere?”
"This small scratch? This'll heal if I rub some spit into it, so don't worry. That aside, I have a question," Peng Zihu prodded.
“What is it?”
“Those who were hiding around here, did you bring them? They look like assassins...”
“Ah, yes. That’s right. However, they aren't with me, but rather hired by the Gold Will Merchants. They aren't enemies, so don’t worry.”
