Chapter 1397: Almost Went Too Far
Xue Long suddenly slapped his thigh, made a decision, and that was to go to another town to deal with Gu Fan, Su Hui, and Lin Xi’s group.
The reason for Xue Long was simple—this gathering was originally to deal with those people, but unfortunately, they encountered the Hunter’s Guild, resulting in lost troops and humiliation upon returning.
To salvage his pride and to redeem himself, Xue Long thought of continuing the original plan.
"What, still can’t keep calm?" Gu Fan looked at Xue Long, who had forgotten the pain once his wound healed and wanted to persuade him. However, someone took the initiative to make Xue Long think twice, and as a result, got punched and sent flying.
The people sent to meet him all frowned and issued a warning, "Xue Long, don’t mess around. We were ordered by Xue Wang to bring you back safely. You’ve already assembled people without Organization X’s consent, and without permission you redirected those monitoring Gu Fan and the others. Xue Wang ordered you to come back immediately."
Hearing this, Xue Long got discouraged—this was indeed troublesome. If he returned empty-handed, he was waiting to be punished.
These people were sent by Xue Wang and mostly represented his will; even nobles dared not defy them. Thus, Xue Long could not resist and could only nod in agreement to return.
So, everyone started the journey back to Dark City.
At the Dark Gate, Gu Fan found that even nobles like Xue Long needed to show surveillance certificates for admission, he hadn’t anticipated that the security in Dark City was so strict.
