Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 209 You'll Get a Terrible Death Sooner or Later

After hearing Zhao Zhen's words, Wu Gensheng's smile gradually disappeared.

“Wugensheng, the entire world of supernatural beings is now in complete chaos because of your sworn brotherhood of thirty-six people.”

Ever since you sent out that list, the thirty-six people who swore brotherhood with you have either died or been hunted down.

Moreover, this matter involves not only them and their respective sects, but also the entire world of supernatural beings, which you have turned into complete chaos!

Is this what you wanted? I'm really curious, what were your thoughts when you became sworn brothers with these people?

Wugensheng chuckled self-deprecatingly and casually sat down on the steps to the side.

"Believe it or not, I genuinely wanted to befriend them at the time."

"The price of befriending you is really high..."

Wugensheng lowered his head and remained silent.

"In this matter, I truly feel I have let them down, but would you believe me if I said I never imagined things would escalate to this extent?"

This time, it was Zhao Zhen's turn to remain silent.

The two of them just stared at each other, neither of them speaking first.

After a long while, Zhao Zhen's long sigh finally broke the eerie silence.

"Now that things have come to this, whether your feelings are genuine or not, I no longer care."

I'll just ask you one question: when do you plan to gather your brothers again?

"You've done all this to find an accomplice who can help you unravel the secret left behind by 'Danzu' Zhang Boduan, haven't you?"

"You really can hide anything from me..."

Wugensheng chuckled and then slowly shook his head.

"Now is not the time."

"why?"

"As the saying goes, 'A long road tests a horse's strength, and time reveals a person's true character.' This is just the beginning. You know very well that this matter is very important to me, so I cannot be careless in the slightest."

"Wu Gensheng..."

"Ok?"

You'll die a horrible death sooner or later.

Zhao Zhen gave Wugensheng a deep look, then took a deep breath, suppressing his urge to attack.

"I understand that perfectly well. How could someone like me possibly end up with a good ending?"

"I'm leaving, you'd better get down the mountain too!"

After coldly uttering those words, Zhao Zhen turned and left.

"Brother Zhao Zhen, thank you so much for Big Ears and Yingzi's matter..."

Zhao Zhen paused slightly, but ultimately pretended not to have heard anything, and his figure gradually disappeared from Wugensheng's sight.

Night fell, and darkness gradually descended.

Looking at the Celestial Master Zhang Jingqing, who was still surrounded by the crowd, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but shake his head.

As the chairman of NaDuTong, he was already considered a prominent figure in the industry.

In principle, Zhao Zhen should also participate in this necessary social interaction.

The only reason she didn't go was that Zhao Zhenzhen wasn't in the mood.

After a long while, just as Zhao Zhen was about to go to rest, Zhang Zhiwei's figure appeared in front of him again.

"Old Zhao, my master asked me to invite you over."

"Finally, it's here..." Zhao Zhen slowly got up and, led by Zhang Zhiwei, walked into Zhang Jingqing's room.

"Junior Zhao Zhen greets the Celestial Master."

"It's Chairman Zhao! Come, come, please have a seat."

Upon seeing that it was Zhao Zhen, a smile immediately appeared on Zhang Jingqing's face.

"Zhang Zhiwei, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and pour tea for the guests!!!"

"How old are you? Don't you even have this much common sense? Is this how I've always taught you?"

"Ah? Yes..."

Looking at Zhang Zhiwei's aggrieved expression, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but twitch her lips.

Now he finally understood why Zhang Zhiwei had looked so aggrieved when he mentioned that he was just a punching bag...

But there was nothing that could be done. Three people had gone down the mountain. Zhang Huaiyi was determined not to go back, Tian Jinzhong was still wandering around at the foot of the mountain, and only this "big traitor" was left to return. If the Heavenly Master didn't vent his anger on him, who else could he vent it on?

"Master, you summoned me here surely for Huaiyi's sake, right?"

Before Zhang Jingqing could speak, Zhao Zhen simply brought the matter to the forefront.

"Yes, this wretched child has caused a terrible disaster, and in the end, he still needs your help, Chairman Zhao, to protect him. Sigh..."

At this point, Zhang Jingqing also let out a long sigh.

"Master, please just call me Zhao Zhen as before. Calling me Chairman Zhao is really too much of an honor for a junior like me..."

As for Huaiyi, Master, you have been kind to me, and I have been friends with Brother Zhiwei for many years. It is only right and proper that I lend you this small favor.”

"To be honest, I originally planned to go to your place myself to take that wretched child back to the mountain, but I suddenly heard of Brother Zuo's passing, so I changed my route and came to pay my respects. I really didn't expect you to be here as well."

"Master, this is fate, just like when you and Master Zuo happened to meet me at the Lu family's birthday banquet back then."

Speaking of which, my connection with these two seniors actually dates back a long time.

"Haha, yes, speaking of this matter, I also sincerely admire Brother Zuo's vision."

Back when you were just a greenhorn, Brother Zuo saw your potential and even went so far as to personally protect you.

Such vision and boldness—only Brother Zuo possesses that.

"Master, you flatter me. Didn't you also step in to vouch for me back then?"

"Well, to be honest, while I admired you a bit back then, I was mostly doing it out of respect for Brother Zuo."

"Hehe, a gentleman judges by actions, not intentions. In any case, I appreciate your kindness, Celestial Master."

"By the way, regarding Huaiyi, I have something to say, and I hope the Celestial Master will allow me to speak frankly."

"But it doesn't matter!"

"When Brother Zhiwei found Huaiyi before, I was there, so I saw the determination in Huaiyi's attitude."

Back then, in order to avoid returning to the mountain with Brother Zhiwei, he almost severed his own heart meridian. If Brother Zhiwei hadn't intervened in time, he probably would have lost his life.

Therefore, in my humble opinion, even if you, Celestial Master, go to my place this time, I'm afraid you will only return empty-handed.

"What if, upon hearing the news of your descent from the mountain, Huaiyi is so frightened that he flees from all sides? That would be truly dangerous!"

Zhang Jingqing frowned and fell silent.

In fact, Zhao Zhen knew that Zhang Jingqing did not actually intend to forcibly take Zhang Huaiyi back, since his master naturally understood his disciple.

His trip was partly to save face for himself, and partly to meet Zhao Zhen in person.

Regardless of the circumstances, since his own disciple would be staying in someone else's "home" in the future, it was only right and proper for him, as the master, to pay a visit and express his gratitude.
