Chapter 1393: Chapter 1392: Break Up

Meanwhile, Yusuf Zuck, Laura Parham, and the colossal Wushou were all seated on the back of King Wright, chatting as they continued their journey eastward. Despite the fact that both Yusuf Zuck and Laura Parham harbored their own schemes, on the surface, they conversed quite harmoniously.

However, at that moment, Laura Parham and the colossal Wushou almost simultaneously received transmissions via the Jade Simple, prompting both of them to promptly check their messages!

"What?"

"What?"

Just after a single glance, they both screamed and leaped up in shock, with the colossal Wushou trembling violently and Laura Parham’s arms shaking as well.

King Wright and Yusuf Zuck noticed their abnormal behavior at the same time, so Yusuf Zuck also stood up, and King Wright stayed stationary in the air.

"What happened? What’s going on?" Yusuf Zuck asked in a low voice.

"Xumi Mountain is done for, the Boss... is dead!"

"Ah..." Hearing this news, Yusuf Zuck was also stunned. It was just a short while ago, wasn’t it? Just a few hours after dawn, and the Boss is dead? Xumi Mountain is done for? What in the world happened?

"It’s The Eight Great Families, I heard there were seventy-two Respect Level assassins. The Boss’s own wife betrayed him; she led the men into Xumi Mountain," Laura Parham said, shivering.

Yusuf Zuck gasped, shocked. The Eight Great Families were terrifying, having flattened Xumi Mountain in a blitzkrieg?

"Damn it, I’m going back to fight them, ahhh!" The colossal Wushou suddenly let out a roar before turning around, ready to leave!

"No way!"

"No way!"

Yusuf Zuck and Laura Parham stopped Wushou at the same time, then exchanged a look before Yusuf Zuck said, "Going back now is akin to courting death. As long as Blue Mountain stands, one need not fear running out of firewood. Brother Nine, you must not be impulsive!"

"Old Ten is right, going back does nothing, it means death!"

"But many of our brothers have scattered, we could go back and regroup!"

"No, that won’t do either. Right now, those seventy-two are probably already hunting us down. So, we have two options!" Laura Parham, the Think Tank adept at plotting, forced himself to stay calm and pondered aloud, "One is to find some secluded place to hide and wait until the time is ripe for a comeback. We mustn’t make any rash appearances. The other option is to seek refuge with the Sea King of Hell. Old Nine, Old Ten, what do you say?"

"Don’t include me in this, I still need to head to Yu Divine Tomb. You and Brother Nine decide for yourselves!" Yusuf Zuck immediately waved his hand. With Xumi Mountain gone, what point was there in being a bandit? He never intended to become one in the first place.

"Why would we take refuge with them?" Wushou exclaimed loudly: "My Xumi Mountain has nothing to do with the other five Clans; we never mingled. What would we do if we went there? To ingratiate ourselves or to act like their lackeys? I would never! If you want to go, then go!"

"What do you mean, Old Ten?" Laura Parham turned to Yusuf Zuck and said, "Xumi Mountain is destroyed, and since you’ve only just joined, there was also some coercion from the Boss involved. So, what are your thoughts?"

"Right now, all I want to do is find my missus and Blackie, and then live a carefree life. Think Tank, Brother Nine, forgive my bluntness, but if the Boss hadn’t captured me on the mountain and robbed me of my Magic Treasures, I would have never thought to be a bandit. Besides, even if I were to be a bandit, I’d be the boss, not number ten," Yusuf Zuck was laying his cards on the table; given the current situation, it was uncertain if Laura Parham could keep him any longer.

"Tell me the truth, was the Qiankun Divine Staff you gave to the Boss real or fake?" Laura Parham asked him seriously.

"What do you think?" Yusuf Zuck asked in return.

"Enough, enough!" Hearing Yusuf Zuck’s rhetorical question, Laura Parham instantly understood and said with a bitter smile, "If it were true, seventy-two assassins definitely couldn’t kill the head of the Clan, even if he couldn’t defeat them, escaping wouldn’t be any issue at all, so it’s fake!"

"You actually gave fake Magic Treasures to the head of the Clan? Dammit, I’ll chop you to pieces!" King Wright, straightforward and tenacious, became furious when he heard that this ’Old Ten’ was a deceiver and immediately swung his axe at Yusuf Zuck!

"Stop!" Laura Parham stepped in to stop King Wright and then took a deep breath and said, "It’s not his fault. He was captured and brought here, we were the ones who robbed him of his Magic Treasures. If we didn’t realize they were fake, we can’t blame him."

"But he deceived us!" King Wright argued stubbornly.

"He deceived the head of the Clan, and the head had this tribulation coming. There’s nothing to be done about it; the dead cannot be brought back to life. Old Nine, don’t be too fixated on it!" Laura Parham surprisingly didn’t hold any resentment towards Yusuf Zuck, or rather, he was an opportunist, and the so-called brotherly bonds meant nothing to him!

Of course, he also felt a bit despondent. If only the head had listened to him and captured this ’Old Ten’ to squeeze out the truth, and seized his Magic Treasures, perhaps the situation would be different now?

At least the head wouldn’t have died!

It just goes to show that everything in this world is predestined; some things can’t be influenced by human actions!

"You three better speak up about what to do next. It’s dangerous for us to stay here," King Wright suddenly spoke with a human voice.

"Old Ten, what’s your suggestion? What should we do?" Laura Parham suddenly asked.

Yusuf Zuck shook his head: "I have no suggestions. I am headed to the Yu Divine Tomb. However, I do agree with your idea; joining the Sea Yama isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I reckon The Eight Great Families will likely continue their campaign against bandits."

"I won’t go; I must return and regroup, find all the scattered brothers, and fight against The Eight Great Families!" After saying this resolutely, King Wright suddenly ran off!

"Old Nine!" Laura Parham was taken aback and immediately set off in pursuit!

Yusuf Zuck also took off from King Wright’s back, but he did not turn back to pursue. Rather, he said indifferently, "Sister Hawk, it seems this is where we part ways. If Think Tank and Brother Nine return, relay to them that though the Blue Mountain remains unchanged, and the river continues to flow, we’ll meet again someday!" After speaking, he continued flying east and then veered north.

"Whoosh—" Just as he had flown a short distance, Laura Parham suddenly caught up. Yusuf Zuck stopped and was on alert, suspecting that Laura Parham might be after his Magic Treasures. With such people, one must always be cautious.

"Old Ten, I couldn’t convince Old Nine to return, and King Wright has also left. I apologize for any offense at Mount Xumi previously, and hope that in the future, even if we cannot be friends, we won’t become enemies either. I’m heading to Sea Yama. My life has been that of an outlaw, always in opposition to The Eight Great Families. We’ll meet again someday!"

"We’ll meet again!" Yusuf Zuck said, saluting Laura Parham with his fist.

Laura Parham flew away, and Yusuf Zuck heaved a deep sigh, wondering whether Laura would find fortune or misfortune at Sea Yama.

"So Mount Xumi has disbanded, such a pity!" Yusuf Zuck shook his head; one of the six great bandit dens was now gone, and Heavenly Realm had lost a powerful force!

This must be the start of The Eight Great Families purging civilian forces, right?

"Whoosh—" Yusuf Zuck sped up, continuing his journey to the Yu Divine Tomb. However, less than two hours after he left, a huge shadow appeared behind him, matching his speed.

Yusuf Zuck was startled and upon probing with his Divine Consciousness, was shocked to find it was King Wright.

He stopped and frowned, puzzled by King Wright’s intentions for catching up again.

"I’m not going back to Mount Xumi; I’ll go with you to the Yu Divine Tomb. In the maze of the Yu Divine Tomb, we’ll ambush those bastards and perish together!" King Wright said, gasping for air!
