Indestructible God King

“What happened?” Wang Ke asked, putting down his fruit juice.

“I just returned from visiting all the immortal sects, but the moment I reached God Wang Tower, I saw Zhang Shenxu and his older sister coming over to make you clear your debt,” said Zhang Zhengdao.

Wang Ke sat cross-legged and asked, “My debt? What debt?”

“You forgot about it?” Zhang Zhengdao asked, before continuing to explain, “Back then at the Zhu Cultivation Town, you ripped off some demons as well as some righteous disciples. You took their storage bangles, enchanted artifacts, and flying swords of the twenty Golden Crow Sect cultivators; they are here to get back what you owe them. They seem to be looking for the Sect Lord to plead their case! It’ll be difficult to hold on to that money! They are already making a ruckus back at the tower!” Zhang Zhengdao explained.

“What a joke! They dream of taking money that entered my pocket?” Wang Ke said.

Zhang Zhengdao continued, “You go and tell them then! They were being loud, asking to see you! They will ask Chen Tianyuan for answers if you don’t show up!”

“They can do such a thing?” Wang Ke asked doubtfully.

After all, it was Zhang Shenxu who was in a shameful position; he didn’t expect the latter to take this matter into the open.

“Zhan Shenxu might not be comfortable with this, but I’m not sure about his older sister. Haven’t I told you before? Zhang Li'er is infamous in the Ten-thousand Great Mountains for being a shameless robber! Even putting robbery aside, she would never accept a loss!” Zhang Zhengdao explained.

Wang Ke stood up, looking worried, “They are forcing me to lay down!”

“Ah? Forcing you to lay down? What do you mean?” Zhang Zhengdao was puzzled by the answer.

“Let’s go and meet the siblings!” Wang Ke said.

The pair set out to find them. Zhang Zhengdao followed right behind Wang Ke, trying to decipher what he meant by “forcing me to lay down.” His face froze as he came to a sudden realization when they reached the sect’s main gate. Lay down, as in Wang Ke getting ready to scam them?

He chased after Wang Ke and warned, “Wang Ke, there are lots of people watching you! You must be careful about the possible ramifications!”

When Wang Ke arrived at the God Wang Tower’s entrance—

Zhang Li'er and his younger brother were indeed already present, along with thirty Golden Crow Sect disciples, all clamoring outside the tower. Wang Ke asked his subordinates to remain behind; he showed a sincere attitude, not at all being in a difficult spot.

“Where is Wang Ke? Ask him to come out!” Zhang Shenxu roared.

“The Clan Lord will be here soon; please be patient. Why don’t we head to the dining hall for some tea?” said Wang Ke’s little cousin-sister in a polite manner, acting as the temporary manager of the tower.

“No! I will not enter unless Wang Ke gets here!” Zhang Shenxu replied coldly.

Zhang Li'er was sizing up the luxurious tower; her eyelids were twitching wildly.

“Wang Ke? He really knows how to make money! Considering this grand store, any product that doesn't sell for three times the original price would not fit in this entire setup! How shameless of him!” Zhang Li'er muttered to herself.

Right then—the little cousin-sister’s eyes glistened. “Clan Lord! You’re here!”

Her voice made everyone’s attention home in on the incoming Wang Ke.

“Wang Ke! You’re finally here! Isn’t it time to return all the things you took from us back at the Zhu Cultivation Town?” Zhang Shenxu demanded.

Although it was inappropriate to break out into direct conflict, Zhang Shenxu was filled with anger when he saw him arrive.

Just when Zhang Zhengdao thought that Wang Ke was about to ‘lay down’, he saw the latter taking a step forward and taking Zhang Shenxu’s hands.

“Brother Shenxu, I really missed you since we bid farewell in the Qing Capital. Thank you so much for showing support by attending the opening ceremony of my God Wang Company! Say no more! Today, let us drink till we are satisfied!” Wang Ke said passionately.

Zhang Zhengdao: “............................!”

Zhang Li'er: “.............................!

Zhang Shenxu: “.................................!

No one expected Wang Ke’s approach. Are you very close to Zhang Shenxu?

Zhang Shenxu flung Wang Ke’s hands away and said, “Wang Ke, don’t try to divert the topic. Are we even that familiar with each other?”

“We were both captured by demons and went through the same ordeal. Brother Shenxu, how could you say that? I really cherish our hard-earned relationship!” Wang Ke complained.

Relationship?Bullsh*t!How many times have you sabotaged my plans?I would have cut you into little pieces if I could!

“Have you forgotten? Zhu Hongyi wanted to kill you, but it was I who stood firm and protected you. Have you forgotten about it already? The demons ran wild back in the Qing Capital. It was me who sent a message to Zhang Li'er so you could be rescued! But I don’t want to mention that again; we are fellow righteous disciples, we should support each other! Have you forgotten?” Wang Ke said, intentionally raising his voice.

The surrounding Heavenly Wolf Sect disciples overheard and became interested in their conversation.

Zhang Shenxu’s face froze. Damn you. I would have never been captured if it hadn’t been for you!Why are you making it sound as if you were my savior? It was all your fault!

“Wang Ke, back then...!” Zhang Shenxu still tried to defend himself.

“Are you talking about those storage bangles, enchanted artifacts, and flying swords you lost at the Zhu Cultivation Town?” Wang Ke asked.

“That’s right. Can you return them to me now?” Zhang Shenxu asked with a deep voice.

“Have you forgotten how your possessions were dealt with back then?” Wang Ke asked, looking at Zhang Shenxu.

“You took them!” Zhang Shenxu answered.

“Think again. Did I really take them? Who did I give them to?” Wang Ke asked further.

“You took out all our possessions and handed them to Zhu Hongyi. The man refused to take them, so you kept them!” Zhang Shenxu recounted.

“That’s not right. I was forced to keep them on his behalf; Zhu Hongyi was the one who took your possessions! Your possessions were given to Zhu Hongyi, and Zhu Hongyi gave them to me. Wasn’t that so?” Wang Ke asked, looking Zhang Shenxu in the eye.

“Isn’t that the same?” Zhang Shenxu asked doubtfully.

Wang Ke shook his head and replied, “Not at all! Zhu Hongyi took your possessions, and then he distributed them to me for other purposes! That means Zhu Hongyi was the one who took your possessions. Not me!”

“It’s the same!”

“No, it’s not. For example, you lend me some money. I then use the money for charity and help the poor… Does that mean I don’t need to return your money because the money is in the hands of the poor? since you can’t get back your money from them?” Wang Ke asked.

“How could that be? I lent it to you; of course, you should be the one who returns it to me. That has nothing to do with others!” Zhang Shenxu answered, staring at Wang Ke.

“That’s right! Your money was taken by Zhu Hongyi. What has it got to do with me!” Wang Ke said, shrugging his shoulders.

“Uhh!” Zhang Shenxu froze.

“Brother Shenxu, Zhu Hongyi was the one who took your money! You should ask him for it! And do you know how much money I gave the demonic sect to protect your lives? I haven’t asked you for that money, how could you now have the face to ask me for money instead? What a disappointment, sigh! I really shouldn't have tried to be a good person!” Wang Ke sighed with a bitter look.

Nearby—the surrounding Heavenly Wolf Sect disciples pointed their fingers and commented about their conversation; Zhang Shenxu’s face was extremely black.

How… How is it that my money is now gone?And now I owe Wang Ke money?

Zhang Zhengdao listened to the exchange with a peculiar look. Zhang Shenxu, don’t try to compete against Wang Ke when it comes to shamelessness!You’re still too weak.Wang Ke has yet to lay down and you’ve already fallen?Just give up on chasing that debt already!If you continue along this path, Wang Ke will end up chasing you for compensation!
