Chapter 619: The Suffocating Moment Before the Final Battle

The king of the underground city, Leighton, pulled out the sword hanging at his waist and pointed it at the person in the sky wearing the King of Spades mask, Joelson!

The person the sword was pointing at, Joelson, felt the aiming of the sword and immediately frowned.

What is it that even dares to point at me?

He saw Joelson’s gaze sweeping towards Leighton below.

Kacha!

With a bang, the sharp sword in Leighton’s hand actually broke into pieces out of thin air!

“What!”

Leighton looked at the long sword in his hand that had inexplicably broken into pieces and instantly felt a chill!

He had not sensed the other party’s killing intent at all. He had not even understood how the other party had done it!

The sword in his hand was forged from the Nine Heavens Darksteel, and it was incomparably hard. Yet, the other party was able to shatter it with just a glance?

Leighton’s hands began to tremble continuously.

This was because Leighton understood that if the other party wanted to, then the sword in his hand might not be the one that was broken. It could also be his neck!

This person had such strength. He was able to take his life unknowingly. How could he not be afraid of someone with such strength..

At the same time, Leighton began to rejoice in his heart!

Fortunately, his imperial father, Reynolds, was currently on his side.

With a god overseeing this place, his confidence instantly increased greatly.

So what if he was stronger than him? In front of his imperial father, that was nothing!

In the sky, when he felt that powerful magic power from Joelson, the former king of the underground city, Reynolds, was secretly shocked.

What a powerful young man!

This person.. was not simple!

Looking at the mysterious image of Joelson, seeing the person hidden under the mask of the King of Spades, Reynolds stroked his beard.

“Hahahaha..”

Reynolds let out a hearty laugh, which made the ears of the people below tingle.

It seemed that he had to change his strategy.

Reynolds had already made up his mind.

historical

It was definitely impossible to force him. He was in the wrong. As the king of the underground city, although he was an ex-king, Reynolds was someone who cared about his reputation.

A ruler stood above the heavens and earth, and paid attention to what he did.

It was impossible to force him like this. His own subjects were watching from below.

Reynolds thought clearly about his own interests. Stroking his beard, he pretended to be friendly and said in a calm tone,”Kid, you’re young and promising. To be able to reach such a level of cultivation at such a young age, your future is bright!”

Hearing Reynolds’s sudden praise, Joelson frowned. He looked at the eyes behind the old fox’s mask and revealed a hint of curiosity.

What was this old fox planning?

The other party’s attitude had suddenly changed a hundred and eighty degrees. There was definitely something fishy going on here.

Joelson was quite certain of this, so he simply did not answer.

Seeing that Joelson did not easily answer his compliment, nor did he accept it humbly, nor did he refute it.

As expected, this kid’s state of mind was quite mature.

Reynolds nodded. Since the other party didn’t answer and wasn’t willing to fall into his trap, then he would take the initiative to attack!

“Kid, I deeply agree with what you said just now. I think it’s very reasonable.”

“That’s right. The proof of innocence shouldn’t be done by you. I’ll help you prove your innocence!”

“Let’s spar. If you can defeat me, then it will prove that you, kid, have extraordinary abilities. In this way, even in the entire underworld, there aren’t many people who can make you look up to, and you won’t have anything to do with me, the two big families in this small underground city..”

As the old man spoke, Joelson began to think.

The more he listened, the more he frowned.

This logic was too farfetched.

Joelson shook his head.

It was like a wolf drinking water upstream, wanting to eat the sheep drinking water downstream, and then coming up with a bunch of reasons to justify himself.

If you want to blame someone, why not?

He just wanted to find an excuse to teach him a lesson.

Reynolds’s next sentence was just as Joelson had expected.

“Of course, young man, you can also choose to reject the match just now. After all, harmony makes money.”

“Of course, if you reject this match, according to what you just said, the person suspected of committing a crime doesn’t need to prove his innocence, and I won’t pin the crime on you.”

“You just need to admit your mistake and apologize, and then all of this will be treated as if he doesn’t exist. This matter will be considered as in the past!”

Reynolds said with a friendly expression, his face revealing a sinister and cunning expression that only Joelson could see.

As expected of an old fox..

After a few words, his benevolence, justice, morality, and courtesy all stood at the highest point.

In addition, he even gave Joelson a way out.

Here, Joelson couldn’t help but sigh. This old fox was very experienced.

This old fellow had already played with the philosophy of how people lived.

If it wasn’t for Joelson, but someone else, someone who was also at the peak of the demigod level, perhaps he would have already obediently lowered his head and admitted his mistake.

After all, a wise man would never be at a disadvantage. It was just an apology. The opponent was a god. If they were to fight, they would almost certainly lose!

Not only would they be injured, but they would also be charged with a large number of crimes.

At that time, they would be unable to defend themselves.

Elena and Mia, who were below them, had the same thoughts.

The two of them gripped each other’s hands tightly, praying that Joelson would lower his head and admit his mistakes.

Joelson was indeed a genius. At such a young age, he had already reached such a terrifying level of cultivation.

A peak demigod, in the entire Underworld continent, would be able to live as happily as a fish in water.

But the other party was a god!

The gap between levels wasn’t something that a genius could bridge.

If Joelson chose to fight right now for the sake of saving face, he would probably have to pay a rather painful price.

“Refuse.. Joelson.. Don’t try to be brave and save face..”

Elena was so nervous that she was about to cry.

Joelson, who was floating in the air, opened his eyes.

“What do you think, little brother? How do you think we should handle this?”

“Is it the first rule or the second rule?”

The Former King Reynolds stroked his beard proudly as he looked at the confident expression on Joelson’s face.

As long as this young man wasn’t stupid, he would definitely choose to apologize to him. Then, the reputation of the underground city’s king would be preserved.

If he, Joelson, cared about his reputation, then he would be playing right into Reynolds’s hands!

Giving Reynolds a reason to attack openly was exactly what Reynolds desired!

“I choose..”
