Chapter 104 - 102: Negotiations Break Down
"Can’t we do something a bit more laid-back?" Lu Hong sighed, and Bai Tianhang just smiled, shaking his head as he continued, "Pretend I didn’t hear that, okay?"
"I dare not leave any loose ends or give rise to any gossip in such affairs," Bai Tianhang said. "I have already made meticulous plans; all that’s lacking is an opportunity to eliminate the powerhouses of the demon clan. When I saw the strength you displayed in the border forest, I knew the opportunity had come."
"Are you sure I can defeat those demon clan powerhouses?" Though Lu Hong had greatly advanced in rank, he might not hold any advantage against the seasoned strongmen of the wasteland.
Bai Tianhang shook his head, "Not sure, but there is still a chance. Without you joining, I don’t stand any chance at all."
"So it’s a gamble, huh?" Lu Hong spread his hands. Why did everyone he encountered seem as unreliable as General Hammer?
"Not exactly. I have detailed information on these demon clan powerhouses that can help increase your chances of victory. Besides, the outcome of a duel doesn’t necessarily depend on the battlefield. These demon heavyweights have weaknesses; they have families too."
"Though you say all this, I still don’t really want to join your endeavor. I came to the demon clan to find something. I don’t want to get involved in any major trouble," Lu Hong still rejected Bai Tianhang’s proposal.
What a joke, having him take the lead in killing demon clan powerhouses? Wouldn’t the demon clan’s wrath be solely focused on him? Then, when the demons sought revenge, they would certainly target Lu Hong first. He wouldn’t dare take on such an unfortunate task!
"Really not interested?" Bai Tianhang asked, "Once it’s done, you will become the demon clan’s foremost War God, enjoying endless glory and riches. Isn’t this worth fighting for?"
"Glory and riches?" Lu Hong gave Bai Tianhang a look, "Are you trying to hoodwink me?"
