Indestructible God King

IGK – Chapter 74.2 If One Is in Trouble, Everyone Should Help! (2/2)

Tong An’an had no idea how things had been messed up. Darn it. Whatever it is, the most important thing is for me to appear happy that the Sacred Child is still alive to clear any suspicions.

“Don’t come any closer!” the Sacred Child cried out. He was frightened to see someone approaching him.

The Sacred Child panicked and inched even closer to Wang Ke.

Tong An’an’s face froze.

“Sacred Child, I just received the news. Are you okay? Don’t worry; I will surely find the culprit!” Tong An’an immediately expressed his loyalty.

“No, don’t come any closer. All of you, stay away from me! No one but Wang Ke can come close to me!” the Sacred Child wailed.

“Wang? Wang Ke? Sacred Child, you must be careful. Have you thought about why Wang Ke was the first to save you from danger? He’s worthy of suspicion! Please trust me on this!” Tong An’an moved closer and said with a worried tone.

Wang Ke—who was at the moment drying the Sacred Child’s hair—was stunned by what the other said. Tong An’an, you old bast*rd. You’re trying to frame me?

“What happened?” someone shouted.

Everyone looked up; they saw Zhu Hongyi descending from the sky.

“Parlor Lord? Why have you come? What interrupted your isolated cultivation?” Tong An’an’s expression changed immediately.

“What interrupted me? Humph. Someone informed me that the Sacred Child had almost died… Do you think that’s not enough to interrupt me?” Zhu Hongyi asked with an icy voice.

“I… I just received the news too. Parlor Lord, I will surely find out the truth!” Tong An’an replied with a bitter smile.

Zhu Hongyi glanced at everyone before turning his eyes to the Sacred Child.

“Sacred Child, what happened? Could you tell me about it?” Zhu Hongyi asked.

“Boohoo. I felt really sleepy after I ate, and then someone covered my head and carried me somewhere far away. And then I felt I was falling down so I woke up immediately. But it was too late. I fell into the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool. Boohoo! Someone is trying to harm me!” The Sacred Child burst into tears.

“Oh?” Zhu Hongyi’s face turned grim.

The demons present didn’t even dare to move.

“I kept crying for help when I was in the pool, but they were only looking and laughing at me. No one came to rescue me. Only Wang Ke jumped into the pool without hesitation. Lots of snakes were biting him, but he still went to save me. Boohoo! Those snake bites were so painful. Boohoo! I want to see the Demon Sovereign. Someone is trying to harm me. Bwaaaaaa!” Tears streamed down the Sacred Child’s face.

Zhu Hongyi’s face turned increasingly grim. A murderous aura pervaded the entire vicinity, so much so that even the temperature dropped.

“Parlor Lord, why would Wang Ke be able to rescue the Sacred Child in such a timely fashion? Wang Ke is suspicious! Yesterday, he gambled with the Sacred Child, and he even…!” Tong An’an tried his darndest to frame Wang Ke.

“Impossible, Wang Ke tried to rescue me right after I fell into the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool. Yes, my head was covered, but I know he wouldn’t have made it in time if he would have run all the way down from the mountain!” said the Sacred Child in Wang Ke’s defense.

One of the Mahjong players spoke up. “The Sacred Child is right. We can testify. All of us stopped gambling after the Sacred Child fell into the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool. No one came down from the mountain at that time!”

“Right! It cannot be Brother Wang!” a group of Mahjong players also testified in Wang Ke’s defense.

Tong An’an: “……………………!”

You bunch of dumb***es, who asked you to testify?And you, Northern Gambling God and Southern Gambling Saint… You two morons! Your timings are real good, huh! Damn it!

“Wang Ke?” Zhu Hongyi looked at Wang Ke with suspicion.

“Parlor Lord!” Wang Ke responded, faking a smile.

Zhu Hongyi was the one who had him locked in prison. He didn’t know what to say to the Parlor Lord.

“Why were you so determined to jump down into the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool to rescue the Sacred Child? Weren’t you afraid of the ten-thousand snakes biting you?” Zhu Hongyi asked with a frown. He couldn’t understand the young man’s motivation to act.

Everyone instantly turned their gazes at Wang Ke. Yeah, how come he acted so valiantly?And, why is he ok?

“Me?” Wang Ke’s face turned stiff.

How would I know? I was kicked into action!Who would want to jump down the pool!

“I don’t know either. There wasn’t much time to think it through!” Wang Ke faked another smile.

This isn’t the right time to explain. There are too many eyes watching; things will go south if I come up with the wrong reason!It’s better to feign ignorance since no one can snatch away my contribution.

“You don’t know?” Zhu Hongyi frowned.

“I know!” a Mahjong player exclaimed.

“Hmm?” And then everyone looked at the speaker.

“I feel that Brother Wang indeed didn’t think too much at the moment. He only heard that a fellow demonic disciple was in trouble, so he couldn’t help but act on the spur of the moment, like an instinct. He protected the demonic sect’s interests instinctively. He saw the demon kid as his own; he sees the demonic sect as his own family! Those were actions from a dauntless spirit that holds nothing back for the sake of the demonic sect!” expressed the Mahjong player.

Zhu Hongyi, Tong An’an, and even Wang Ke looked at that Mahjong player with slack jaws. Are you trying to brainwash us with some political propaganda?The demonic sect is my home; my family, full of love?

Wang Ke was a little shocked to see someone helping him fill in the gaps. But how could he refuse such a good explanation?

Wang Ke nodded, “I’m afraid that what this good brother has said is right. I didn’t think much at that moment! I only felt that if one is in trouble everyone should help, being fellow demonic sect disciples! If everyone is willing to love a little more, the demonic sect will become a beautiful place to live in!”

Zhu Hongyi: “……………….!”

Tong An’an: “………………….!”

All the demons: “…………………….!”

What kind of insight is this?When did our demonic sect become so attractive?

Zhu Hongyi looked at Wang Ke doubtfully. Is this brat for real?

Tong An’an was on the verge of vomiting blood. Darn it! The one I’m framing is such a saint?It shouldn’t be so!

No one realized that Zhu Yan was sitting alone at a nearby corner, trying to force out the venom from his body. He suddenly choked on his saliva after hearing everyone’s thoughts about Wang Ke. The deadly venom that he had already forced up his throat was swallowed back again.

“Dauntless spirit? Bullsh*t! Sacrifice everything for the demonic sect? Bullsh*t! Wang Ke! You bast*rd! Can you not be this shameless? I’m the one who kicked you! Yes, it’s me! Damn it. I’m the one who kicked him into the pool!”

Zhu Yan was coughing so badly that he couldn’t utter a word. The deadly venom flowed back, turning his body purple again. He was silenced once again. Why!Why!!
