Chapter 58
Chapter 58
Showing off is like the wind, always at my side.
Bo Suihan wore the Dragon King Robe and held the Dragon King Token in his hand. Behind him, the Soldier King Commander held an umbrella over him. His face was cold and stern, with a touch of defiance.
“Overseas? They’re all my private forces.”
“Impossible. Where would the Bo Family have that kind of power? If you really had so many people, there wouldn’t have been a massacre that wiped out your entire family back then.”
Wang Xiao couldn’t believe it.
But Wu Xiaojiu knew that these three thousand men were only the tip of the iceberg when it came to Bo Suihan’s strength.
One had to know that Bo Suihan’s nine masters were no pushovers.
They were the nine top legends who once dominated the world.
And Bo Suihan was their only disciple.
Not only had he learned each of their unique abilities, but when he descended the mountain, his nine masters gave him nine world-shaking gifts in addition to the nine marriage contracts.
The Dragon King Token, Assassin Pavilion, the Ten-Billion Unlimited Black Card, and so on.
In every sense-strength, wealth, everything-Bo Suihan was already invincible in this world.
As for why he had seemed so pathetic in the early stages, that was naturally because to use those things, he first had to go to a hidden island to claim them.
At the beginning, Bo Suihan had been tied up with all kinds of matters.
Later, when Wu Xiaojiu’s feigned death incident broke out, the nine masters on the mountain sensed the danger he was in.
To prevent anything from happening to him, they brought him to the island after coming down the mountain.
From that point on, the Dragon King Token, Assassin Pavilion, black card… all of them were activated.
Bo Suihan had truly become invincible.
[So this is Long Aotian? So arrogant.]
Patrol lights crossed overhead, making the place look like a city that never slept. Wu Xiaojiu couldn’t feel the slightest threat of death and let out a sigh.
[So this is Long Aotian. I don’t know why the early pacing was so slow, but from here on out it’s all pure wish-fulfillment!]
The System sighed as well.
It was in Wu Xiaojiu’s mind, and whenever it saw Long Aotian being humiliated or losing face, it grew especially worried.
After all, the only reason Long Aotian existed was to show off and slap people in the face.
If Long Aotian ended up cowering and pathetic, then this novel would have no meaning at all.
“Release Wu Xiaojiu, and I’ll leave you with a whole corpse.”
“You still want to kill me? Have you forgotten that all the assets under your name were transferred to me? This Dragon King Token should be mine now!”
Wang Xiao shrieked.
But the only answer he got was a cold laugh.
Bo Suihan’s eyes were especially bright in the dark night. He tilted his head slightly, looked at the other man, and let out a soft sneer.
“What do you mean by that? All the assets under your name are mine now, and the Dragon King Token is also in my name on paper. Give it to me. Return what’s mine!”
Wang Xiao howled and screamed in the dark, on the verge of crawling around in public.
But in truth, what he said did make sense. When Bo Suihan had signed the contract with him, the terms had been written in black and white: everything under his name, all of his assets, would be transferred to Wang Xiao.
By rights, the Dragon King Token really should have belonged to Wang Xiao, and the three thousand soldiers present should also have been Wang Xiao’s private troops.
But what kind of story was this?
Long Aotian.
How could Long Aotian possibly stoop to someone else’s level and let himself be manipulated?
Only then did the Soldier King behind Bo Suihan curl his lips into a smile.
Immediately after, Bo Suihan spoke.
“What contract? Wang Xiao and these three thousand men never saw any contract.”
As he spoke, he took the black-and-white contract from the Soldier King beside him. Then he raised it high and, amid the wailing alarms, tossed it away.
The contract fluttered down like feathers, and Wang Xiao twisted and crawled over, trying to pick up each page one by one.
Bo Suihan looked down at him from above and slowly parted his thin lips.
“The Dragon King Token can mobilize over 200,000 elite soldiers and 400,000 ordinary troops. They’re equipped with the most advanced weapons in the world, and even their aircraft all carry the J- designation. With that kind of strength, they could destroy a small country.
“It also gives me the backing to turn hostile and refuse to acknowledge any agreement.”
The words were shameless.
But what of it if he was shameless?
I’m already invincible in this world. You want me to honor a contract?
Had he gone insane?
Besides, Bo Suihan wasn’t some sanctimonious do-gooder. He was just a Long Aotian working hard to grow stronger and stand on the same level as Wu Xiaojiu.
“How can this be?”
Qi Jiao’s lips were trembling. The scene before him had already gone far beyond anything he could have imagined.
Bo Suihan was still being modest. With this kind of force, he could seize a mountain in East Asia and become a warlord there.
With four or five hundred thousand people, if each person cast one vote, they could even push Bo Suihan into the presidency.
“Are we really fighting humans?”
Qi Jiao said, his whole body shaking.
“We’re not fighting humans. We’re fighting a Long Aotian.”
Wu Xiaojiu, tied to a chair and forced to watch it all, chimed in as well.
As he spoke, Wang Xiao had already twisted his body around to scoop up all the contracts. Like a madman, he clutched that pile of scrap paper tightly in his arms, trembling all over.
“The contract is still here, so your things are still mine! Bo Suihan, you lost! You have to go to the underworld and apologize to our Wang Family!”
The more he spoke, the more he realized this plan wouldn’t work.
Bo Suihan had already decided not to recognize the contract. With so many people here, they might well torture him into confession, then transfer all the assets back.
Everything was about to go to waste.
It was just like back then, when they had clearly stabbed Bo Suihan to death, only for his nine masters to intervene slightly and bring him back to life.
It was already a settled fact.
Wang Xiao, this ant, was being crushed by power until he could barely breathe.
Wait. There was still a chance.
Wang Xiao’s eyes suddenly flashed, and he immediately grabbed the dagger in his arms, lunging back at once.
“Right. The contract is nothing but worthless paper, but Wu Xiaojiu is a living person, isn’t he? You can’t just abandon him.”
The dagger was pressed against Wu Xiaojiu’s throat again.
That old scar was starting to throb faintly once more.
The bright blade scraped at the scab, reopening the wound. Wu Xiaojiu frowned and hissed in pain.
“Do you think your dagger is faster, or my men are?”
Seeing him in pain, Bo Suihan frowned too.
His tone unconsciously turned a little colder.
But that slight change only gave Wang Xiao more confidence.
“You can kill me, but whether you go for the heart or the brain, I’ll still have a few seconds to move. In those few seconds, I can kill your little lover.”
Seeing that Bo Suihan was still hesitating, Wang Xiao grew smug.
With one hand holding the dagger and the other stretched out in front of him, he said, “Come on, Dragon King. Make your choice.
“Do you want the Dragon King Token, or do you want your Wu Xiaojiu?”
It was practically a forced choice.
Wu Xiaojiu’s body trembled as he complained bitterly in his heart.
Long Aotian’s Affection Points were only at 50 percent. That was nowhere near enough to mean he’d risk his life for him.
Besides, Wang Xiao had stabbed Long Aotian along with him earlier.
If Long Aotian used even a shred of common sense now, he’d immediately suspect that the two of them had set him up again.
His life was in danger.
Wu Xiaojiu was almost in tears.
“The Dragon King Token.”
Just as he was about to curse out loud, Bo Suihan made his choice.
Wu Xiaojiu’s heart plunged straight to the bottom.
He looked up at him in disbelief.
And Bo Suihan was looking at him too.
