Transcending the Nine Heavens

CHAPTER 129: Loyal and Courageous Heart of Chu King of Hell

Chu Yang looked sincerely at the throne expert and said, “Esteemed senior, this... martial arts expert keeps his promises. I can trust him. Therefore, I also have some expectations... even plans for what to do in the future. However, this… is a secret between me and the Butian Pavilion, relating to the war between our two nations... I hope esteemed senior will keep it confidential.”

The throne expert nodded slowly and exchanged a glance with another person, both understanding the situation.

Indeed, this was in line with Mo Chengyu's rigid character that believed in 'repaying even the smallest kindness with the greatest gratitude'...

“You, Chu King of Hell, are quite honest,” the throne said in a somber tone. “However, that so-called expert... I’m afraid he won’t be able to do anything for you...”

“Why is that?” Chu Yang smiled and replied, “A promise is worth a thousand gold; I can see that brother is a person who knows gratitude and repays kindness. Such a person naturally values promises...”

“Haha… why?” About ten of the mysterious figures in black began to mock and laugh, one of them jokingly said, “Because the person you speak of is about to die at our throne’s hands! How can a dead person repay kindness?”

“Ah?” Chu Yang’s eyes showed extreme shock as he stammered, “This... this... this...”

“Where have they gone?” Lord Throne coldly snorted.

“This, I truly do not know.” The Chu King of Hell seemed still immersed in deep disappointment, and even pleaded, “Uh, esteemed senior, could you perhaps show mercy to that person? Such a good man... if he dies unjustly, it would be too regrettable.” The Chu King of Hell sighed heavily.

“That is not for a mundane officer like you to decide!” The throne coldly glanced at him; his gaze was chilling. Chu Yang appropriately shivered and then pretended to be calm...

The two throne experts exchanged glances, their lips subtly moving as if discussing something.

Although they were from the lawless Dark Demon Clan, it was unnecessary to oppose a mundane nation. Seeing that they had achieved nothing here, they naturally planned to leave.

Chu Yang nervously opened his mouth, wanting to say something but hesitating.

“What else do you want to say?” Lord Throne keenly noticed his small actions.

“It’s like this... I have something difficult to say...” Chu Yang stammered, “Esteemed seniors are all masters with extraordinary powers... My Iron Cloud is currently in a perilous situation... This Chu dares to ask!”

The Chu King of Hell’s eyes turned resolute, as he stood up and deeply bowed, loudly declaring, “This Chu dares to ask, esteemed seniors... could you lend a helping hand to my Iron Cloud? The sixty million people of my Iron Cloud will be grateful for your kindness!”

“Dare to ask? You really do have the nerve!” The black-robed throne almost laughed, “You saved our enemy and helped him escape. It’s already a mercy that I don’t kill you; you actually want to recruit us? Hmm?”

These words from the throne drew laughter from all the experts of the Dark Demon Clan. Everyone looked at the Chu King of Hell with mocking glances, feeling it was somewhat absurd.

After a moment of silence, Chu Yang said seriously, “Esteemed senior, you are mistaken; before saving someone, I did not know about your grievances. Furthermore, even if I had known...”

“What if you had known?” The black-robed throne coldly pressed for an answer.

Chu Yang straightened his chest and declared loudly, “Even if I had known, as long as there was even the slightest chance that I could recruit him to become a support for my Iron Cloud, I would still save him! Even if it was just for a promise!”

These words were resolute! Chu Yang’s eyes locked onto the throne, not backing down for an instant!

In that moment, all the black-clad figures in the grand hall were stunned by this statement! Though this Chu Imperial Seat was merely an ordinary person with no martial prowess, the momentum he displayed at that moment was impressively dignified and upright!
