Chapter 4137 - Kowtow
The gloomy power of death surrounded them, making even these powerhouses tremble with dread when facing those ferocious ghoul kings and ghoul emperors.
“Um... Young Lord Li, Young Master Li!” Granny Pu forced an awkward smile. She slapped herself on the mouth, and said, “This old one had no eyes, and wrongly accused Young Lord Li! I hope to sincerely apologize. I hope that on account of Starlord Jiang, you won’t hold this against this old woman. My apologies, my mind is muddled in my old age!”
“I was wrong as well.” Feng Buhuo forced a smile too. “Your methods are truly awe-inspiring. None of us ever imagined Flameyellow could give birth to a miracle such as you. In our narrow-mindedness, we underestimated the breadth of a gentleman’s heart! Truly sorry.”
“Sorry!” Meng Xinlan was straightforward.
“Stop there.” Tianming raised his brows and looked at them. “Why are you saying all this? We’re not friends. If you have a request, just state it... as long as the price is right.”
“Uh...” Granny Pu exchanged a glance with the two beside her, then clenched her teeth, knelt down before Tianming, and pleaded miserably, “Young Lord Li, the Tian Jiu Cult runs rampant. I hope Young Lord Li, for the sake of the ancestor, would join us in putting down those mad dogs of the Tian Jiu Cult and eliminating the threat forever. My Kunlan primalwingers will remember your kindness for all eternity!”
“Stop!” Tianming hushed them, pointing at the golden crystal star behind him. “You know I am guarding your ancestor, don’t you? Since that’s the case, how could I possibly take even half a step away? As I see it, you Kunlan primalwinger are mighty and overflowing with talent, all elite strategists. Defeating the Tian Jiu Cult will simply be another feather in your cap! I’ll be here cheering for you.”
Granny Pu and Feng Buhuo felt their blood boiling at these words, yet they still had to keep smiling.
Meng Xinlan kept her cool. She thought for a moment, then asked, “Young Lord Li mentioned terms earlier. May I ask, what conditions would please you?”
Tianming sighed. “To tell the truth, because of your ancestor, I actually feel like family with you. The situation now is indeed dire, and I wish to help as much as I can. But your earlier actions have cooled the passion within me. Since the three of you have come to apologize, I won’t hide it: if you want me to fight again, only one thing is needed.”
