In an instant, everyone’s attention shifted to the young Zhong Wei. Zhong Wei was silent for a second, then looked at the silver-haired old man and the middle-aged man with a hook nose and said calmly:
"This ti I’ll let you go... but from now on, the Life Line will have nothing to do with . I will lead my people away completely, and I will also take with everything that belongs to ."
As soon as he finished saying these words, the visible tension on the faces of the two old-tirs in the building relaxed at least by half. Then, the silver-haired old man responded:
"Zhong Wei, it’s a pity that our cooperation has reached this kind of end, but if you’re truly willing to put aside prejudices caused by misunderstandings and keep today’s promise, we will respect your decision..."
By this point, things had basically reached their conclusion. Zhong Wei chose to let go of his hatred, and naturally, the silver-haired old man and the hook-nosed middle-aged man couldn’t oppose that.
Except when they launched the nuclear attack on Zhong Wei, they had been the completely weaker side, using all ans just to force Zhong Wei to spare them. Now, they had finally achieved their goal.
"Oh... I originally thought I’d have the chance to have a bout with the legendaryly powerful Mr. Zhong Wei today, but it turns out sir you feared and compromised, which really disappoints ..."
Seeing how things ended like this, King, who was there to hold the line, started to speak sarcastically again. However, he seed to have developed an apprehension of soone and targeted his sarcasm entirely at Zhong Wei, without saying a word about Wang Zhifan’s clone whom he had just looked down upon.
Zhong Wei chose to ignore this troublemaker. He turned around calmly, intending to use his Gravity Superpower to fly away from this place, heading to the Life Line Organization’s base in Ya City for various divisions.
But he hadn’t flown a hundred ters when he noticed sothing strange: Wang Zhifan, who had just told him to make a decision, hadn’t followed and was still hovering in midair, with unclear intentions.
This odd situation imdiately made the atmosphere a bit uneasy. The silver-haired old man and the hook-nosed middle-aged man’s faces beca darkened.
"Sir, do you still have sothing to say?"
The hook-nosed middle-aged man spoke to Wang Zhifan, his tone filled with wariness and dismissal, glancing at King to remind the hired expert to be ready to respond.
And indeed, King proved to be sowhat reliable. Although he developed a strong apprehension towards Wang Zhifan’s clone during their recent encounter, since the benefactor had spoken, he unhesitatingly stood in between them, and had the four cha elites he brought along also join to form a human wall, firmly preventing any attempts by Wang Zhifan.
"Mr. Masked, you should leave now!"
King warned Wang Zhifan sternly, devoid of the slightest hint of sarcasm he used earlier with Zhong Wei, showing his extre caution towards this mysterious and powerful opponent.
However, Wang Zhifan seed unfazed by the reportedly strong white superpowered individual. He turned to face King and his four cha elite guards, as well as the silver-haired old man and the hook-nosed middle-aged man they protected at the back, and smiled:
"Heh... Zhong Wei agrees to spare you, that’s his personal choice. I never agreed... just DIE!!!"
Before his words even fell, the Wang Zhifan-controlled clone erupted with an astonishing aura, seemingly ready for a desperate fight. King and the four cha elite standing in front of him instantly tensed up, knowing that the money they received today wouldn’t be easy to earn and that a high-intensity battle was inescapable.
But at that critical mont when they were preparing for a hard fight, two screams rang out almost simultaneously behind them!
"Ah!!"
"Ah!!!"
The five didn’t dare to let their guard down and didn’t imdiately turn around to observe, instead relying on their perception to investigate the situation.
Then they discovered a man in a cloak, identical to the enemy in front of them, was sheathing his sword. Before this man, the silver-haired old man and the hook-nosed middle-aged man were both cut in half from their chests, fragnted and fallen amidst the pools of blood on the floor, screaming.
"What just happened..."
As a top Spiritual Power wielder, King felt utterly perplexed. He was sure the enemy in front of him had never attacked, but who was this new figure that suddenly appeared behind them and cut down their benefactors? How did he appear out of thin air, moving and attacking so swiftly that they couldn’t react?!
Utterly confused, he suddenly thought of using his powers to rescue the two now fatally wounded benefactors. In his view, since they could still scream after being chopped in half from the chest, there was still so value in trying to save them.
But just then, the two cloaked n simultaneously exuded an overpowering aura, thwarting his rescue plan.
"If you don’t want to die, then get the hell out!"
Wang Zhifan’s two clones simultaneously issued a chilling threat, instantly reminding King of the horrifying sensation he felt during their previous ntal power clash.
"Leave! The dead hold no salvage value!"
With death imminent, the reality quickly sunk in, and he realized the two benefactors were dood regardless, hurriedly retreating with the four cha guardians.
After all, he had no reason to risk himself for two dead n, especially since most of his paynt had already been secured.
At the sa ti, the silver-haired old man and the hook-nosed middle-aged man, mostly drawn into the abyss, cursed Wang Zhifan, this madman, with their last breath amidst their agony.
"Ah... you will... regret... it!"
"Ya... City will... eliminate... you... for us..."
With their dying curses, Wang Zhifan sensed through the clones that many unidentified, fast-moving energy bodies appeared high in the sky over Ya City.
There seed to be over a hundred high-yield nuclear bombs being launched from various directions towards this imnse and bustling city, aiming to unleash a catastrophic disaster.
"So, they really set an automatic mutually-assured destruction program?"
Wang Zhifan sighed inwardly, expecting the two officers left a contingency, but not realizing they’d go to such lengths. With this scale and scope, things indeed beca troubleso.
Just as Wang Zhifan pondered sothing, the recently departed King and Zhong Wei rushed back.
Now, they were forcibly turned into a single camp, a camp resisting nuclear bombardnt, seeking survival and minimizing losses. Whether for their own lives or the incalculable fortunes of this prosperous city, they were driven to fight back.
"The range of Ya City is too vast! I can only handle one-fifth with my abilities!"
In the face of this crisis, Zhong Wei said deeply to Wang Zhifan. He didn’t bla this friend’s impulsiveness, instead, he rationally discussed a redy.
King, comparatively, was much more flustered. Sensing the approaching wave of destruction, he cursed incessantly:
"FUCK! Who’s threatening this city?! This is madness! That person surely won’t live to see tomorrow!"
From his words, it could be deduced that Ya City wouldn’t be completely obliterated by such an attack; its nurous defenses could withstand most of the assault, though suffering significant losses was inevitable. Once things settled, those initiating the attack would surely face a coalition of Ya City’s powerful factions.
While others fretted over the future, Wang Zhifan appeared remarkably composed.
His calm wasn’t due to a lack of personal presence or direct losses, but because he had a plan to resolve everything.
"Don’t worry, I’ll handle everything."
He said calmly and reassuringly.
