SWNOVELS Chapter 2434
Jiang Ning had let them go before.
To be more accurate, he had allowed them to live twice. Jiang Ning had said that as long as they did not commit crimes or harm anyone, he would not kill them.
It did not matter that they were inhabitants of the Underworld.
As long as they did not provoke Jiang Ning or harm his loved ones, he would never kill them.
All this while, Jiang Ning had always followed this principle.
Tang Fang knew this, so he understood that Guan Yi deserved to die. After all, Guan Yi dared to lay his hand on Jiang Ning's daughter, so anyone in Jiang Ning's position would do the same. However, Jiang Ning did not harm Tang Fang and the others since they did not seek to make enemies with him.
Therefore, Tang Fang was more willing to trust Jiang Ning instead of the Demon King. At least Jiang Ning still had some humanity left in him and would not kill indiscriminately. Furthermore, even though he had immense powers, he would not oppress others.
"All we want is to live." Tang Fang laughed bitterly. "All of us know that pursuits and ambitions mean nothing. There is nothing more important than survival. Although the Underworld is not a nice place, it is still somewhere we had grown up in and lived most of our lives. If the Underworld could return to the way it was, we can remain in the Underworld forever and not disturb the outside world."
Tang Fang and his people were willing to promise that.
If not for Greedy Wolf's arrival and the Demon King's return, they would never want to come out of the Underworld.
They would have stayed there. There was nothing wrong with that. In the past, the war with Heavenly Palace nearly destroyed the Underworld. They could almost see the devastating scene before their eyes, so no one wished for another war.
Everyone knew that there was no winner in war.
Jiang Ning glanced at Tang Fang. "You have good common sense. No one likes war. Those who learned martial arts should understand even more what war means."
Martial arts promote peace, and the
use of physical force is only justified in self-defense. Therefore, the purpose of learning martial arts is to stop wars and reduce their
veling
casualties. Yet, how many people know the true meaning of martial
arts? It's to protect!
"I can trust you." Jiang Ning paused and continued, "If our goal is the same, I can trust you."
Tang Fang replied, "I don't wish to die. I want to live my life in peace and let everyone in the Underworld enjoy the same peace. There is nothing more important than this."
Now, the Demon King causes
instability in the Underworld. He has
taken over Greedy Wolf's body and increased In power. Once Demon King recovers his full strength In the future, his greed will return too Then, he would wish to expand his authority and conquer. Court Chiefs and warriors like us would have nowhere to escape. He will force us to go to war and get us killed. No one wishes to die!
Tang Fang continued, "Please tell me what you need me to do, and I will do as you say. However, I have only this request. After the Demon King died and everything returned to normal, I promise that the
inhabitants of the Underworld will
never come out again. However, you must also undertake not to enter
there!"
With Jiang Ning's abilities, he can destroy the Underworld if he wishes. If that happens, the Underworld would be doomed. No one can go against him.
"Do you think I would do that?" Jiang Ning chuckled before continuing, "To me, all wars are meaningless."
"It assures me to hear you say that." Tang Fang stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "I trust you not to break your promise."
Jiang Ning stood up and replied, "I hope we can work together successfully and defeat the Demon King!"
After asking Jiang Ning a few more questions, Tang Fang understood what Jiang Ning wanted him to do.
It did not require much effort. In fact, Tang Fang only needed to inform the Demon King about something. After Tang Fang left, Peter Pan came out of hiding and asked, "Can he be trusted?"
