“Don’t worry old fart, I am not as dumb as you people. I made sure that there is no loophole he can use,” I said, having figured out what Mike was trying to put forward. I only wanted to sow a seed of doubt in this asshole’s mind but he kept resisting it. Just when I thought I was successful, he thought of the right question to ask which would show that Ji Feng and I were more connected than we claimed.

“You do know that Ji Feng is just a puppet, right? Which means any agreement you made with him will not apply to his masters,” Mike said, no matter what I answered him I had to make sure I did not contradict myself.

“I do,” I answered Mike confidently. Even though this answer raised the question that if Ji Feng and I were really just temporary partners.

“Then why?” Mike was dumbfounded hearing the boy’s answer. And did not understand why would he go through with so a self-destructive deal.

“Revenge makes one do crazy things, besides I too have friends in high places so I am not worried about the forces behind him. As long as I get to inflict even a fraction of the pain and sorrow that my family has been through on your organization then I will gladly make deal with the devil,” As I spoke these words my eye grew red with anger and in the end added, “Vengence will be mine.”

Hearing the boy say ‘friends in high places’ Mike could not help but look at the boy’s shadow and knew that these people were confident that they could destroy the Circle’s sun blossom branch today and did not have clue about what the circle had prepared in response. Since they were convinced about their victory his words seemed to have no effect.

Neither of them seemed to be worried about getting double-crossed later. Both of them were puppets, one controlled by revenge and the other by his master, they had one goal in mind to destroy his branch of the Circle. With this, Mike realized that though both the boy and Ji Feng claimed to be in a temporary partnership they were actually using each other for their agenda. And concluded that they cared more about destroying his branch of the Circle than their life so anything he said to sow discord between them would not work.

“Sigh! Boy, you are the perfect example of a person blinded by revenge,” Mike no longer planned to continue to sow discord between the boy and Ji Feng as he realized that they valued his destruction more than their life. Mike understood by the boy would join hands with Ji Feng knowing all the dangers. The desolate punisher array was a one-of-a-kind array, get past it was not easy for low-level card apprentices, so the boy recruiting Ji Feng’s help when offered was not a surprise to Mike. Blinded by revenge people do a lot of crazy things.

“I have already died once, now I live for revenge,” I kept throwing third-rate dialogues about vengeance to convince Mike that revenge has blinded me, and to destroy him I was willing to gamble my life. Successfully giving him an answer to why I acted together with Ji Feng despite knowing the risk. And it seems he has bought it.

“Since you don’t value your life, let me take it,” Giving up on messing with the boy’s mind, Mike decided to kill him first and then Ji Feng. Having exchanged blows with Ji Feng he knew he could not kill fast, so he decided to get rid of the card soldier boy with a sneak attack and then continue his fight with Ji Feng. Throwing a punch filled with his brute strength aiming at the boy Mike acted on his thoughts.

“Coward,” yelling that I responded to Mike’s punch instantaneously thanks to the reminder of my slave consciousness and Hive AI. Even though my Gigamite physique was dormant it was my physical strength was still sufficient enough to take a card lord’s attack head-on.

*Boom*

My fist meet Mike’s fist midway and not only did it not manage to counter Mike’s force but also push him back three steps. I too took a few steps back after all my stance was not correct being caught off guard by Mike’s sneak attack.

Mike looked at me with disbelief, he could not believe that an ant in the card soldier realm was not only able to react to his sneak attack but also counter it with equal strength. If not for having tasted the boy’s punch personally Mike would not believe it, he was still having a hard time believing it.

“Kid, It seems I underestimated you. No wonder you dare to jump around, with that strength you do qualify to be haughty but if that is all you got, then unfortunately this place will be your burial ground,” Mike said, he was impressed by the boy’s power for his realm but felt that it was not enough for him to take the boy seriously.

“Oldman, not only do you shamelessly sneak attack someone who is in a lower realm than you but you also dare to act wise, aren’t you afraid that heaven will not be able to tolerate your shamelessness and smite you?” I had shameless people and Mike just put them all to shame.

“Boy, heaven is dead. Nobody can judge me but myself, let’s see if you can still talk after taking my next punch,” Mike did not waste his breath and rushed to punch me again but soon he notice Ji Feng attack him from the corner of his eyes and immediately retreated.

“Now, who is shameless? Two against one, yet you dare to act righteous?” Mike yelled as if he was suffering from injustice.

“Motherfucker, you attack a junior in a lower realm and still dare to call it a fair fight. You have no right to complain about justice and righteousness.”
