Chapter 823 “He’s The Demon King (2)”
Old Madam Huang has no regrets about coming along. To this granny, these people are here to destroy her home so of course she must stay and share the fate of this realm.
“Ma!” Huang Che Mu cries out using an excruciating voice like his lung’s about to give.
He’s listened to his mother all his life, but this time he couldn’t, not by abandoning her!
“I told you to scram!” the granny grew furious over her son’s disobedience.
Her eyebrows had long become white due to age, but now with this devastating event and her granddaughter’s departure, Old Madam Huang’s previously well-maintained face was now haggard at this point.
“Want to go? Too bad for you people leaving is not an option.” Senior Wei mocks them with a sly grin, “Think this over quickly, watch me kill this old granny or come down from that hill to save her, pick before I make the choice.”
The elders present had all stopped in their footsteps by now up at the hill, their eyes watching the stubborn old madam and her son’s struggle.
“Grandpa Wei,” the girl impatiently frowns, “why are we wasting time on these people? Let’s just go right up and deal with them, there can’t possibly be anything dangerous on a tiny mountain like this.” Having said that, the lady then began to willfully walk towards where the demon elders are.
However, the senior clearly didn’t agree and promptly pulled her back in haste. “Miss, my intuitions won’t be wrong here. This mountain is shrouded in a heavy air and littered with traps. Without a proper trap master with us, we won’t be able to ensure your safety.”
Back up at the hill, Fourth Elder was growing increasingly more anxious as the seconds dragged on. He’s not able to stand idly by and watch the tiger chief and the old madam die in front of his eyes, that’s not something he could get past his conscious.
“This time it looks like we won’t be able to avoid this crisis.” Fourth Elder smiles wryly as he resolutely walked towards the base again.
“Chief Huang, I still owe you a favor from before so consider this as repayment.” When his eyes fell upon the tiger chief again, the elder’s face looked helpless yet firm like he’s prepared to meet his fate.
Although he’s ranked fourth among the many elders in the palace, Fourth Elder was in fact the youngest of the batch. If not for his exceptional talent, he never would’ve been conscripted. As for the favor mentioned here, it was by coincidence but he had suffered a serious injury at one point in his life. When that occurred, it was Huang Che Mu who inadvertently saved himself, hence the favor.
Old Madam Huang was now starting to panic after seeing that figure coming down to them. “What are you doing! Hurry and leave, I don’t need anyone to save me!”
Despite that, the fourth elder didn’t slow or become hesitant. In a blink of an eye, he’s already at the mountain base again, causing the old madam to be filled with regret due to this ending.
The granny doesn’t fear death, but she does fear dragging down others with her due to a simple mistake she caused. That’s a sin and a shame she wouldn’t be able to put down.
“Hahaha!” Senior Wei hasn’t fallen so low to lose his humanity yet. Pushing the old granny aside with one palm strike, the old man zooms forward like a burst of lightning and instantly stood before the fourth elder.
