I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan Chapter 966 - 697: Hatred
In the next mont, two ropes broke, and the ninja gritted his teeth, clutching two ropes, swinging towards the other side like a swing.
"Quick, grab the ropes and pull Oda up."
Kawai shouted, and Ozawa Ria and Kurokawa Motoishi promptly grabbed the two ropes.
"Bang....."
anwhile, a dull sound was heard as Oda directly collided with the mountain wall. Although he had already reduced the force, the collision still left him sowhat dazed.
"Didn’t fall down, truly worthy of a ninja."
Looking at Oda still tightly gripping the rope, Xia Liang squinted his eyes, having underestimated this fellow.
"Hold on, Oda, we’ll pull you up now."
Kawai Matsutake also noticed that the ninja was okay, shouted, and then together with Ozawa Ria and Kurokawa Motoishi started pulling the rope, gently lifting the ninja up.
If examined closely, one would find the ninja’s hands gripping the ropes had started bleeding, and there were cuts all over his body from the sharp stones on the mountain wall he had hit earlier.
Even so, the ninja gritted his teeth and persisted, which almost moved Xia Liang.
"Since you went down, don’t think about coming back up."
Xia Liang slightly smiled, with three shurikens appearing in his hand, which he had gotten from Aoi’s corpse earlier.
The corpse had turned to ashes in the flas, but the three shurikens, due to their good craftsmanship, remained intact.
"Xia Liang, you bastard, if you dare take action, I’ll make sure you die without a burial place.."
Kawai Matsutake also saw the shurikens in Xia Liang’s hand, and imdiately shouted. Less than ten ters remained for them to pull Oda up.
"Is that so? Then death is all I ask."
Laughing dismissively at Kawai Matsutake’s threat, Xia Liang prepared to unleash the shurikens towards Oda.
A distance of fifty ters, in normal circumstances after the shurikens are thrown, quick-reacting people could dodge them, not to ntion these ninjas.
This is also the reason Kawai Matsutake and the others hadn’t attacked Xia Liang, as it would be utterly aningless and only lead to wasting weapons.
But now the situation was different. Oda was in mid-air, completely unable to dodge. Although Xia Liang dreamt of directly killing him, that wasn’t his intent.
As long as they hit their target, the sharp pain would force him to let go.
Just as Xia Liang was preparing to strike, the sound of blades breaking through the air suddenly echoed, and sharp blades shot out from the mountain wall, heading towards Oda.
"Ah..."
Next mont, Oda let out a miserable shriek as his body was pierced by nurous sharp blades, forming bloody holes, and he instinctively released his grip on the rope due to the pain.
"Bang....."
After about ten seconds, everyone heard a dull sound coming from the bottom of the cliff, and it was clear Oda was dead beyond recovery.
Even Kawai Matsutake and his group were surprised by the unexpected change, and Xia Liang was perplexed as well; he hadn’t even moved, yet the other person had died.
"Cough, Kawai-san, it’s not my fault; I haven’t even made a move yet."
Xia Liang said while putting away the shurikens, saving himself three weapons.
Simultaneously a bit astonished, he hadn’t expected Zhuge Liang to be so ruthless, setting traps in the cliff walls.
"But isn’t it odd? Zhuge Liang wouldn’t expect anyone to survive after falling into a hundred-ter abyss, right?"
Xia Liang wasn’t aware that this canyon was once a river that had dried up over the years due to geological changes, which turned it into a vast gorge.
"Xia Liang, if I don’t kill you in this life, I swear not to be human."
At this mont, Kawai Matsutake’s roar echoed again, his eyes filled with killing intent as he looked at Xia Liang.
"Kawai-san, that’s not fair; Oda-san wasn’t killed by . You saw it, Zhuge Liang did it. If you want revenge, you should look for Zhuge Liang."
Xia Liang shrugged and said helplessly, honestly this ti it wasn’t his doing.
Kawai Matsutake gritted his teeth as he glared at Xia Liang. How dare this guy say that; if he hadn’t cut the rope, how would Oda have nearly fallen off a cliff and been killed by Zhuge Liang’s hidden weapons.
"Oda wasn’t killed by you, but he died because of you!"
Kawai Matsutake said coldly.
"So what? You want revenge?"
Xia Liang said indifferently, also looking at the wooden bridge.
"There’s a bridge here, isn’t there? If you want revenge, I’ll wait for you here. Co if you dare."
"Bastard, Xia Liang, once we take this treasure, I’ll tear you limb from limb!"
"Co if you dare!"
"Doesn’t your Dragon Country have a torture thod called Lingchi? I’ll make sure you experience it too."
"Co if you dare."
"And your family, I’ll make you watch as we tornt them; it’ll beco your nightmare!"
"Co if you dare!"
"Can’t you say sothing else?"
"What? You want to kill , right? Co if you dare. There’s a bridge here, isn’t there? Co if you dare. I’ll wait for you here; co if you dare. Anyone can talk big; co over if you have the guts...."
....
Across from him, Xia Liang’s arrogant deanor made Ueno Matsutake spit out a mouthful of blood, furious internally. If looks could kill, Xia Liang would have been dismbered by now.
"Enough, don’t waste words with him. Although we can’t get over, he can’t co here either, and that’s fine; he can’t bother us while we go inside."
Kawai Matsutake wanted to speak but was stopped by Nakamura Komachi.
"Once this is over, killing him will be as easy as pie."
"Mr. Nakamura’s right."
Kawai Matsutake took a deep breath, calming himself slightly, but hearing Xia Liang’s "co if you dare" from across the canyon still made the corners of his mouth twitch.
"They’re not paying attention to anymore, how annoying."
Watching the four heading towards the Stone Gate, Xia Liang stroked his chin and thought for a mont. He hadn’t ant to provoke Kawai Matsutake, mainly he wanted to buy ti.
Of course, if he could instigate Kawai Matsutake to really co over by the bridge, that would be ideal.
But reality didn’t allow that.
Should he deal with them here?
There should be more traps inside, right?
As Xia Liang pondered, Kawai Matsutake and the others arrived at the giant Stone Gate.
The giant Stone Gate was carved with various intricate patterns, still shining brightly even after a thousand years, and beside the gate were two ancient words: "Gate of Death."
Kawai Matsutake and the others understood this was Zhuge Liang’s final warning to those who ca here; if they continued forward, danger awaited inside.
