Indestructible God King - Chapter 158.2
Chapter 158.2 Who Do You Think You Are? (2/2)
Wang Ke walked over while Zhang Zhengdao hid nearby. You must be joking! I won’t go any closer if a demon comes to stir up trouble. It’ll be easier for me to call for help if Wang Ke is in danger.
The former continued making his way to the construction site. The group of men in black were drawing more of their comrades from the town at the moment.
“Stop, stop, all of you! Who allowed you to erect a building here? Are you that tired of living already?” someone shouted threateningly.
“Boooom!”
The man in black who shouted unleashed a powerful aura, frightening the workers who backed off from their positions.
“A Golden Core immortal?” a worker who fell down cried out.
Wang Ke walked up to that worker and helped him back to his feet. He patted the poor man’s shoulder and reassured him, “Don’t worry, leave this to me. You guys go and take a break!”
“Clan Lord Wang? Okay, okay. I came from the Zhu Cultivation Town; I will listen to you, Clan Lord Wang!” The worker moved back to one side in fear.
And so, Wang Ke approached the unwanted guests.
His subordinates carried chairs and tables to the scene in a flash; they also maintained order as they ushered all the workers away.
More and more cultivators dressed in black robes gathered at the premises to make a ruckus. The venue for the assembly was already contentious enough. Those troublemakers were drawing even more attention.
Some distance away—Tie Liuyun and Zhao Si received news about the situation. They rushed over in shock.
“Disciples from the demonic sect? So, it really happened. Brother Wang is being suspected by the demons. Should we go and support him?” Zhao Si asked.
“There’s no need for that. My junior brother told us to stay away if the demons went to trouble him; he will settle things on his own. He’ll call for help if things go over the top!” Tie Liuyun stopped his fellow righteous peers from going to the construction site.
And so, everyone watched the conflict from afar.
“You are Wang Ke? The Heavenly Wolf Sect’s East Wolf Deputy Hall Lord?” asked the black-robed man in the lead with a mocking tone.
Wang Ke looked at the rest of his foes and chuckled coldly. “My construction has been in progress for almost two months, and you only come to make trouble now? Why? Didn’t my brothers on Divine Dragon Island tell you about my identity?” Wang Ke said. Some of the men in black moved closer right then.
“Brother Wang, you told us back then that you would build a tower that would offer services to the demonic sect, when we were playing Mahjong. There will be Mahjong rooms and other activity centers! We know what you’re doing, and we told them about it, but we don’t know why they’re causing a ruckus today. And another thing, they don’t work under Parlor Lord Zhu!” a demon told Wang Ke.
“I trust my brothers from Divine Dragon Island. So, the rabble rousers are under the authority of another Parlor Lord. Since you’re already here, shouldn’t you tell us which Parlor Lord you serve? So many of our brothers from the demonic sect are watching. Why? You don’t even dare to reveal your allegiance but you do act bold to make a scene?” Wang Ke chided.
“Hehe, Wang Ke. You really are seeking death! A righteous disciple daring to infiltrate our demonic sect? I investigated the whole thing! You are on good terms with the righteous sect disciples in the Dragon Cultivation Town. You even told them that the building will be used to spy on our demonic sect! Didn’t you?” one of the leading demons asked in a chilling tone.
Standing at some distance away—Zhang Zhengdao was shocked. What? The things Wang Ke told Tie Liuyun and Zhao Sis were leaked? He’s toast!
But Wang Ke stood calmly before the demons, not even showing a tinge of nervousness. He smiled and said, “The message passed through many mouths and ended up like this when it reached you?”
“Hmm?” That demon was confused.
“Come, come. Smash this token! Smash it!” Wang Ke flung his Divine Dragon Token onto a table beside him.
“The Divine Dragon Token?” Some demons recognized it.
“Didn’t you say I’m a spy infiltrating the demonic sect? Come on, smash it! The Demon Sovereign gave this to me personally, and appointed me as Divine Dragon Branch Lord. Are you saying that something is wrong with the Demon Sovereign’s eyes? That he can’t even distinguish between the righteous and the demonic? Do you think I’m from the righteous faction? Come then, smash it! And tell all my brothers here that your eyes are sharper than those of the Demon Sovereign himself! Whatever our great leader has determined, you actually take it as bullsh*t! Come, smash it!” Wang Ke berated the leading demon.
His words made that demon freeze. I was only questioning you a little. Do you have to drive me to a corner using the Demon Sovereign as an excuse?
And you want me to smash the token? Do you think I don’t care about my life? How would I dare smash the token that the Demon Sovereign gave you?
“You don’t dare now, do you? Humph, what a coward! A spineless bugger who only acts boldly while on his own turf! So many eyes are watching, yet you bring people to cause a scene so that the righteous sects take us as a laughingstock?” Wang Ke said angrily.
“You dare scold me?” that demon retorted.
“Not only that, I am also going to report you to your superior! I’m creating a building with activity centers for the demonic sect disciples out of my own pocket. This is being made especially for you, the demonic warriors! I’ve been pouring out my heart and money for the demonic sect! Who do you think you are? How dare you make baseless accusations against me? What makes you think you can slander me?” Wang Ke stared at him fiercely.
Still, the demon leader refuted, “You are doing this to spy on the demonic sect disciples and to hamper their missions!”
“Hahaha, who am I spying on? Everyone! Have I spied on anybody? Please step out and speak so that everyone knows! Help him prove that I spied on you. Haha… Anyone? Come out!” Wang Ke laughed as he glanced at the demons.
“Branch Lord Wen, you are way out of line here!” said a demon on Wang Ke’s side.
“What are you doing?” Branch Lord Wen questioned coldly, “Didn’t we receive news from our undercover sources? Two months ago, Wang Ke told his senior apprentice-brothers that he was building this tower to spy on the demons!”
“Oh? A mole in the righteous faction? That’s good! Then, may I ask if he’s shared with you the full conversation we had? Or did he take it out of context and only told you bits of it? Branch Lord Wen?” Wang Ke chuckled derisively.
“He said……!”
“You can’t even remember yourself, can you? And still you dare come and stir sh*t on my turf? Do you know who is backing the creation of this building?” Wang Ke stared at him fiercely.
“What do you mean?” Branch Lord Wen asked in surprise.
The former looked at the demons, “Can any of you tell me which Parlor Lord is this Branch Lord Wen serving under?”
“Him? He’s serving the Second Parlor Lord!” said one of the demons who was familiar with Wang Ke.
“Oh, the Second Parlor Lord, you say? So you’re hot stuff because you’re one of the Second Parlor Lord’s subordinates? You just walked into my property to make a mess? Did you know that I already told the Third and Fourth Parlor Lords about this building? They even agreed to help me with the Ribbon-cutting Ceremony. Did you know this too?” Wang Ke said.
“What?” The demons were taken aback.
Zhu Hongyi and Zi Bufan are coming to cut the ribbon? How come we didn’t know about this?
“You… You are lying!” Branch Lord Wen could not accept the news.
“Lying? Do you think I could lie about such a thing? Why don’t you ask both Parlor Lords for confirmation if you don’t believe me?” Wang Ke said.
Wang Ke’s forceful rhetoric drove the lesser demons away from supporting Branch Lord Wen.
After all, demons had their own factions too. They would stand united when facing their common enemy, the righteous faction, yet they were prone to have internal conflict. Disrupting the project would be taken as insubordination if Wang Ke had gained their superior’s approval to build the tower. They didn’t want trouble over their own heads for nothing.
More demonic sect disciples stood by Wang Ke in a flash. Damn it. I must change sides or I’ll be lambasted by my superior if something happens! I’m just here to watch the show! How did I get involved in this internal conflict?
“I have the support of two Parlor Lords to construct this building. I am also the Divine Dragon Branch Lord assigned by the Demon Sovereign himself! You can even consider me one of the Sovereign’s disciples! I have the Demon Sovereign, Zhu Hongyi and Zi Bufan backing me! Who the hell are you!? Who is your backer? Why don’t you dazzle us! Are you trying to revolt?” Wang Ke questioned his opponent loftily.
