o Mr.
Jin straightaway!

“No matter what, I’ve been with Mr.
Jin for decades, and even if it means that I’ll have to die in front of him, I’ll make him believe me!”

“I don’t doubt your loyalty to Saber Jin Wanhao, and I don’t doubt that he will trust you,” Meng Chao said coldly.
“But think about it.
When was the last time you saw Saber Jin Wanhao? How was he at that time?”

“Well… I think it’s last year, during Mr.
Jin’s seventieth birthday.” Song Jinbo recalled the event carefully.
“At that time, Mr.
Jin was already in a bad condition.
Even though he wore an airtight medical suit and had medicine inside the semi-transparent armor-like suit, he still coughed nonstop, which made the medical suit rattle.

“Mr.
Jin is a peerless elite known as the Underground Emperor, so when he turned seventy years old, we naturally had to organize a huge party for him.

“But Red Brows Su Lun didn’t invite many guests for Mr.
Jin on this occasion.
Mr.
Jin didn’t stay for long at his own birthday party either.
Throughout it all he didn’t say a full sentence before he went back to his secret chamber to heal.

“Many of the guests said that Mr.
Jin’s ambitions weren’t as great as in the past.
Now that Golden Tooth got itself the God of Wealth, everyone can earn money, so there’s no need for anyone to challenge Golden Tooth’s might.”

“So…” Meng Chao narrowed his eyes and said something as sharp as a knife.
“Do you think that Mr.
Jin is still alive?”

Song Jinbo looked like he was struck by lightning and looked at him flabbergasted.

Then, he immediately started shaking all over.
His eyebrows, lips, shoulders, and fingers began to tremble.

“Y-Y-You…” He stuttered as he pointed at Meng Chao as if Meng Chao had uttered a curse that was utterly blasphemous.

“Don’t jump to conclusions.
I’m not trying to curse Saber Jin Wanhao,” Meng Chao said.
“It’s just that based on my understanding from the outside world, the Underground Emperor is someone domineering and has a penchant for control.
Based on your understanding of him, as long as he had at least one breath left, would he really hide while letting Red Brows Su Lun give orders when Golden Tooth Lair is facing a crisis that could potentially destroy it?”

Song Jinbo’s expression became one of complete devastation.
He started hyperventilating, and his expression gradually became distorted and full of pain.

“Of course, I was just talking about the worst case scenario.”Meng Chao did not dare to make it sound as if he was certain.
He still tried to be as cordial as possible and comforted Song Jinbo.
“Think positively.
Perhaps Saber Jin Wanhao still has one breath left, but lost his fighting strength, became a cripple, and is controlled by Red Brows Su Lun, which made him end up as the Vortex’s puppet.”

Song Jinbo gave a full-body shudder, and his eyes instantly became bloodshot.

His gaze was so intense that he looked like he wanted to burn two holes into Meng Chao’s body.

“Then, tell me, what should we do now?” His voice was hoarse, and he looked really fierce.

“We wait,” Meng Chao said.

“Wait?” Song Jinbo cried out.
“You just said it yourself, we have less than ten hours left.

“And we don’t even know whether Mr.
Jin is still alive or not.
Red Brows Su Lun has ulterior motives, and the Vortex has plenty of tricks up its sleeves.
Leprosy Village might go out of control at any moment too.

“Golden Tooth Lair is about to be destroyed overnight, and you still want to wait?”

“Trust me.
If we had a 30% chance of winning, I wouldn’t want to wait for another 0.1 second.
Unfortunately, I haven’t found any good plan to risk everything.
So, even if there were only three minutes left, I’d grit my teeth and continue waiting!”

Meng Chao changed his tone and said, “But I have a feeling that we won’t need to wait for long before the enemy shows a fatal weakness.”

Song Jinbo widened his eyes and asked, “Why?”

“Because framing me as a murderer isn’t the goal,” Meng Chao explained patiently.
“Even inciting Leprosy Village and the lair to fight against each other isn’t the enemy’s ultimate goal.
After all, even if Leprosy Village and the lair end up all dead, the chaos would be restricted to Golden Tooth Lair.
As long as the chaos doesn’t spread to the outside world, Dragon City won’t end up in chaos, and once the pitched battle at the borders ends, it can mobilize forces at ease and solve the problem in the lair.

“At that time, no matter how much the Vortex changes its plans, it won’t be able to cause a storm.

“That’s why the abnormal beast’s act of framing me as a traitor and forcing the villagers to charge out to seek shelter are all just ways for it to shift the gangs’ attention.
They’re not its real goal.
The crux of its plan is more sinister and fatal to Dragon City compared to anything we’ve already seen.
It’s supposed to shift the chaos in Golden Tooth Lair to the whole Dragon City.

“This is a major scheme, and now, an accident has appeared—the villagers aren’t moving.
This isn’t something that the abnormal beast can make up for by just framing me as a traitor.

“That’s why we should lurk in the dark and watch as the enemy tries to correct the path and makes more mistakes!

“Of course, to make sure that we can instantly cut the enemy’s throat the moment he makes a fatal mistake, it would be best if we got as close as possible to Red Brows Su Lun…”
