Chapter 276: Chapter 276: The Golden Bone that Tricked Hozon

"Hm?"

After Hozon entered the secret chamber, he glanced around and immediately furrowed his brows. This place was too strange; it was empty, eerily silent.

Hozon was a highly vigilant person. A twitch in his eye was all it took for him to sense that something was amiss, and he turned around to leave the chamber. However, as he turned, he froze in his tracks.

At the entrance of the secret chamber, unbeknownst to him when, a person had appeared, shouldering a pitch-black battle axe, casting a cold gaze upon him.

"Long Qie!"

Hozon exclaimed in a lost voice.

He had never expected to encounter Long Qie here!

With the wisdom of Hozon, in the flash of a thought, he realized the truth: Wu Dengyong had already made connections with Sky Net, and he had been duped!

"Damn it, how could Wu Dengyong possibly collude with Sky Net?!"

Hozon was both shocked and furious.

He was always extremely cautious in his dealings. This time, in preparing to collaborate with Wu Dengyong, he naturally conducted thorough investigations beforehand.

He knew Wu Dengyong was ambitious, but lacking in talent and courage; the man was definitely not daring enough to cooperate with Sky Net.

After all, Sky Net was too frightening, and collaborating with them was akin to bargaining with a tiger for its skin.

This was precisely why Hozon had decided to seek cooperation with Wu Dengyong!

Yet now, reality had dealt him a severe blow.

"Hahaha, Huo Sect Master, how have you been?" Just at that moment, a triumphant laugh echoed from behind Hozon, and Wu Dengyong emerged.

Hozon whirled around, his eyes as cold as ice, staring deadly at Wu Dengyong, his teeth gritted, "You’ve betrayed me!"

Hozon’s expression at that moment was akin to an Evil Ghost, startling Wu Dengyong. However, he quickly recovered, smiling, "You brought this upon yourself."

Hozon said coldly, "What do you mean I brought this upon myself? You had already agreed to cooperate with me, and now you’ve broken the contract. How can you have the gall to say such a thing?"

His tone was thick with sarcasm.

Wu Dengyong laughed heartily, "You misunderstand me. Before you came, Sky Net had already contacted me. By that time, Mr. Xiao already knew you were coming here to seek a partnership with me, so he instructed me beforehand to keep you steady."

"What?"

Hozon’s face changed.

He clearly had not expected Sky Net to take the initiative to contact Yama Hall.

"Hmph, impossible!"

Hozon immediately retorted coldly, "What sort of power is Sky Net? Would they deem your Yama Hall worthy of notice?"

Though Hozon’s words were filled with scorn, Wu Dengyong seemed unconcerned and chuckled, "Perhaps you don’t know, but I once visited North Africa a while ago and ran into some obstacles. It was Mr. Xiao of Sky Net who rescued me.

My connection with Sky Net goes back a long way."

Hozon’s expression changed once more.

Shock, helplessness.

"I can’t believe I’ve walked into the trap myself."

Hozon let out a bitter laugh.

Seeing Hozon’s defeated expression, Wu Dengyong felt a surge of satisfaction in his heart, and smiled, "As long as you hand over the Golden Bone, you might just be able to save your life."

"Hmph."

Hozon snorted coldly.

Trust a ghost!

He had killed so many of Sky Net’s people that even his toes could tell Sky Net wouldn’t let him off easily. This

Wu Dengyong was still attempting to persuade, "The Golden Bone is incredibly important, but it surely can’t be more important than your own life."

But Hozon was already scanning his surroundings, his eyes emitting a sharp glint. With a heavy stomp on the ground, he burst toward the back, attempting to escape.

He was planning to run!

"Hey!"

Long Qie snickered coldly.

Seeing Hozon charge at him, his eyes were filled with intense killing intent. With a whoosh, the giant axe was already horizontally in front of him as he said in a cold voice, "Don’t even think about escaping!"

Hozon snorted coldly, "Get out of my way!"

A fist, like a venomous snake, already struck at Long Qie.

Long Qie himself was extremely powerful. The sound of a violent wind echoed, and with a boom, the fist smashed against the blade of the axe, creating a thunderous noise.

Long Qie only felt a pain in his tiger’s mouth, and the axe shook violently.

However, it did not affect him in the slightest. Without a second thought, his body shifted sharply to the left by a fraction, perfectly blocking in front of him. With a loud roar, he punched out.

Hozon’s face changed slightly, and he hurriedly changed his tactic. His body paused slightly on the spot, and he kicked out a howling foot. The wind from the kick was sharp, like a giant axe cleaving through the air.

Bang!

Fist and foot clashed, with a dull thud.

Hozon grunted, taking a step back.

While Long Qie, holding the war axe, shouted loudly, "Hozon, come meet your doom!!!"

With a furious roar, the axe, like a meteor falling from the sky, crashed down, slashing towards Hozon’s head.

The movement was both ferocious and fierce!

Its speed was extremely fast!

"So vicious!"

Hozon had initially planned to take this chance to break out, but with the axe cutting through the air above his head with a harsh sound, he couldn’t help but his face turned drastically pale.

He looked at Long Qie and saw that the other party was completely open with flaws. Just one step forward to launch an attack would inflict severe injuries on Long Qie instantaneously.

But after injuring his foe, he himself would likely suffer grave injuries too!

Being naturally cautious, Hozon would not dare to take such a risk at this moment. With no other choice, his body violently retreated backward, narrowly evading Long Qie’s axe.

Boom!

The axe struck the ground, digging into stone, with a loud roar.

"If you want to get past me, you must pay a price."

Long Qie sneered.

"Damn it!"

Hozon cursed angrily.

He was very anxious at this moment and, after a brief pause, was ready to charge again.

However, just as he was about to make a move, a faint laugh suddenly came from behind, "Huo Sect Master, since you’ve come, why such a hurry to leave?"

Boom!

On hearing this voice, Hozon’s mind felt as if it were struck by thunder, and he froze completely.

"Xiao Zheng!"

He then turned around abruptly.

And there Hozon saw a figure walking out from the depths of the chamber, dressed in a black suit, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, a half-smile playing on his lips as he looked at him.

"Heh, Hozon, hand over the Golden Bone," Xiao Zheng walked up to Hozon, smiling faintly, "Give me the Golden Bone, and I can make your death a little less painful."

Hozon quickly recovered, scoffing coldly, "What a big talker you are. Do you really think that Yama Hall can trap me? Don’t forget, our strengths are nearly equal. You might be able to defeat me without a problem, but to kill me? Absolutely impossible!"

"Oh, is that so?"

Xiao Zheng let out a laugh upon hearing this.

"Isn’t it?"

Hozon scoffed.

They had fought at the secret base before, and it was evenly matched with Xiao Zheng barely stronger.

He was confident that even if Xiao Zheng could defeat him, killing him wouldn’t be so simple!

And his own strength was not weak either!
