Chapter 180: Admitting Mistakes and Making Amends
As it turned out, Ouyang Ling'er had used her exceptional internet skills to investigate Overlord Blade's master: a Level 260, Six-Tier Warrior known as Blade. He was trapped in Sky City, a special map in the 10th World of the Otherworld, where revival upon death was impossible.
The Glory Guild used this as leverage: if Overlord Blade failed to kill Zhang Yue, his master would die.
Thus, even knowing he was no match, Overlord Blade resolved to kill Zhang Yue, even at the cost of his own life.
At that moment, the hardest barrier in Overlord Blade's heart crumbled.
A man in his forties broke down in tears.
"My master's kindness to me is as great as a mountain. If I can save him, I'm willing to sacrifice my life."
Zhang Yue responded, "What if I could save your master?"
"If you can save my master, I, Overlord Blade, will serve you from now on. I'll go through fire and water without hesitation."
For a brief moment, Overlord Blade thought he saw a glimmer of hope.
But then, shaking his head, he said dejectedly, "The Glory Guild has sent over 270-level, Six-Tier professionals to surround my master. You're a newly advanced professional at just over Level 40—how could you possibly save him?"
Zhang Yue smiled faintly.
