Chapter 233: If you can't beat them, join them



Chapter 233: If you can't beat them, join them

After creating a hole large enough for a person to pass through,

Du Ge flashed a slight smile at Dancong, making a gesture to crawl into the study.

Dancong's face changed dramatically, and with a slap of the word "fly" on himself, he burst through the window and flew straight up towards the supervisory institution's enforcer, crying, "Save me..."

But Du Ge was faster.

Swinging a brick to deflect the flying sword aimed at his neck, he flashed behind Dancong, grabbed his throat with one hand, and with the other hand, he patted and struck him repeatedly, pulling out clumps of ink stains and, incidentally, stripping him of his clothes.

Du Ge's attributes far exceeded Dancong's, and with the boost of his Divine Transformation Realm cultivation, even with Dancong's increased agility, he couldn't match Du Ge's speed.

In desperation,

Dancong tried to strike back at Du Ge.

But without the enhancement of the text, he was just an ordinary person with high attributes.

Du Ge's hand deftly brushed against his arm, and he dislodged it.

"Thief, how dare you?" the Void Refinement Realm supervisory enforcer paled with shock, and all the flying swords attacking Li Anjiang and Yao Liang turned towards Du Ge.

Du Ge's hand moved to Dancong's throat.

The flying swords behind him came to an abrupt halt.

"Let him go, or I'll make sure you have no grave to be buried in," the supervisory enforcer said with an iron face.

"Not letting go," Du Ge said, feeling the continuous flow of spiritual power into Dancong's body. He glanced at the supervisory enforcer in the sky and called out, "Fellow brothers, wrap up the bricks on the ground, let's go. With the hostage in hand, that supervisory enforcer won't dare to do anything to us!"

The supervisory enforcer's thoughts moved, and the flying swords closed in on Du Ge again.

Du Ge tightened his grip on Dancong's throat.

The flying swords froze once more.

"Don't make any sudden moves, Lord Supervisory Enforcer. Before your flying swords can kill me, his head will be separated from his body," Du Ge threatened with a smile, "Keeping him might give you a chance to save him. A single word can summon a black dragon, such a powerful supernatural power, you wouldn't want him to die, would you..."

"I advise you to let him go. With your cultivation only at Divine Transformation, if you hurt him, none of you will escape," the supervisory enforcer said coldly.

"To let him go, we must first leave the capital's territory!" Du Ge chuckled, "I'm giving you a chance. Follow us to a safe place, let us leave, and I'll return a living person to you. We were entrusted to kill this fellow, had we known it would be this difficult, we should have asked for more..."

Dancong said nothing.

He knew Du Ge's details, but there was no point in exposing them now when there was a chance to live. It wouldn't benefit him either.

Du Ge wanted to live, and so did he.

Thus, the likelihood of Du Ge killing him was not high.

Alien Star warriors never trade life for life.

Li Anjiang and Yao Liang, each holding about a dozen bricks, stood beside Du Ge on their flying swords, nodding at him.

Du Ge stuffed the arm he had just pulled off back into Dancong's hands, still gripping his throat, and signaled to the others, "Let's go. Lord Supervisory Enforcer, we're not interested in this deal. If you're wise, you'll follow us, otherwise, we're prepared to tear the ticket and go down together."

The supervisory enforcer watched Du Ge coldly, silent, as if considering how to save Dancong intact from Du Ge's hands...

Du Ge and his companions flew on their swords, whistling past beneath the supervisory enforcer's feet, and in an instant, they flew out of the capital.

About five miles out, the sense of restraint disappeared, and the flow of spiritual energy returned to normal.

The supervisory enforcer didn't ride on a flying sword but floated in the air, following them at a leisurely pace, maintaining a distance of five miles, knowing the range of his spiritual power suppression, not pressing Du Ge too hard.

"Junior brother, what should we do?" Li Anjiang looked back at the supervisory enforcer anxiously, "I never knew the Void Refinement Realm was so powerful. Whether we kill him or let him go, he won't let us off."

"Meet the soldiers with a block, and the water with soil. Let's first get out of the capital," Du Ge said, "It's just him alone, that's manageable. If we alert other Void Refinement Realm individuals, or that Body Fusion Realm old monster, then we're truly doomed. But not yet..."

The spiritual power continued to pour into Dancong's body, and Du Ge felt his own spiritual power plummeting, but at that moment, he couldn't care less.

"I can hold him off for you," Dancong said, "I guarantee he won't chase after you."

"Like hell we'd believe you," Yao Liang glared at him.

"I'm serious," Dancong insisted, "I have to fight for a way out for myself. By the way, what's the energy you're transferring into my body through your hand? Is it spiritual power? I feel it gathering inside me, as if it's compressing together..."

"Why do you care so much?" Du Ge interrupted him irritably, "You just said you're willing to cooperate, is that true?"

"Do you believe it?" Dancong chuckled, "Under these circumstances, keeping me is the best solution. I don't know what you're thinking, coming to kill me after just two months. Are you that impatient? Now that we're in this difficult situation, let me ask you, do you regret it?"

"Kill one less," Du Ge chuckled, "Old Dan, I really admire your abilities. I think we can truly cooperate..."

"Perhaps!" Dancong smiled noncommittally, "Brother, what do you think of my earlier suggestion?"

"Not much!" Du Ge shook his head, "But I do have another better idea that could keep both of us alive."

"What is it?" Dancong asked.

He chatted with Du Ge as if they were old friends, not minding that he was still being choked by Du Ge.

Moreover,

Flying naked in the sky, having entered the Alien Star Battlefield, his will had long been tempered to be incredibly strong.

As long as he could survive to the end, he was willing to do anything.

"I plan to join the supervisory institution with you," Du Ge smiled, "That's the best solution for both of us to survive, and besides, we can cooperate."

"..." Dancong was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "Alright, that indeed is the best solution, better than my earlier one."

"What's more correct than joining if you can't beat them?" Du Ge said.

"But if you're going to join, why not stop right now?" Dancong asked, "Joining is just one of your options, right?"

"Dancong, being too smart isn't good," Du Ge shook his head.

"Alright," Dancong laughed, "I won't say anymore, but you have to ensure that both of us survive, otherwise, I don't mind tripping you up before I die."

"Of course, not just you and me, everyone will survive," Du Ge smiled.

As one party pursued and the other fled, when the sky began to brighten slightly, they had already flown more than three thousand miles and arrived at a desolate mountain range.

Du Ge suddenly stopped.

Li Anjiang and Yao Liang also came to a halt.

The supervisory enforcer watched them from a distance, still maintaining his previous cold demeanor: "Let go of Dancong, and you can leave."

"Fellow brothers, you go ahead!" Du Ge looked at the supervisory enforcer and then turned to Li Anjiang, "I'll hold him off."

"Junior brother, you should leave, I'll hold him off," Li Anjiang said, "You are more important to... our sect..."

"Brother, if you stay, then no one will be able to leave," Du Ge shook his head and smiled, "Don't forget, I'm the one who has comprehended the essence of the Dao. Even this chaotic world's person is so hard to kill, how could I die easily."

"Chaotic world's person?" Dancong heard this new term and couldn't help but laugh.

"Lord Supervisory Enforcer, I'll stay and exchange the hostage for my two brothers' freedom," Du Ge said without waiting for Li Anjiang to respond, looking at the supervisory enforcer and speaking loudly.

"Agreed," the supervisory enforcer nodded indifferently, his only goal was Dancong, and he was not interested in Du Ge and the others. In his view, sacrificing one to save two was also a correct decision by Du Ge.

"Go!" Du Ge urged Li Anjiang and Yao Liang.

"Junior brother, be careful. If you really can't escape, just join the supervisory institution as you said," Li Anjiang and Yao Liang exchanged glances, admonished Du Ge, and resolutely turned to leave. Du Ge was always someone who created miracles, and they believed he could do it again this time.

After confronting the supervisory enforcer for a quarter of an hour, waiting until Li Anjiang and Yao Liang were out of sight, Du Ge landed with Dancong on a large rock at the top of a mountain.

He looked up to the supervisory enforcer following closely and shouted, "Lord Supervisory Enforcer, don't be so tense. I'm not so noble as to trade my life for my brothers' chance to escape. Otherwise, I would have killed him just now. Why bother landing? Let's have a good talk about how we can all survive..."

"Let go of Dancong, and I'll let you leave. I keep my word," the supervisory enforcer descended a bit closer to Du Ge, his gaze fixed on Du Ge's hand around Dancong's throat, as if ready to strike at any moment.

"Lord Supervisory Enforcer, do you know about the black dragon summoned by Dancong yesterday?" Du Ge didn't care about the approaching supervisory enforcer and smiled, "I was the one who took it down. My abilities are actually stronger than Dancong's, and in some ways, I even counter him.

What do you say, is it possible for me to join the supervisory institution like him? His supernatural power is too strong. If you can't control him, keeping me could restrain him. After all, I'm still young, only eighteen, and I don't want to die so early. Besides, an eighteen-year-old at the Divine Transformation Realm is a genius, right?"

The supervisory enforcer's heart stirred, and he glanced at Du Ge subconsciously, "It's possible."

"Really?" Du Ge sounded pleasantly surprised.

"I never lie," the supervisory enforcer frowned, "I wouldn't deceive a child."

"You agreed too quickly; I'm not reassured, especially since I've committed such a serious crime," Du Ge looked up at the supervisory enforcer in the sky, "Lord Supervisory Enforcer, how about this? Let's both take a step back. I'll still hold Dancong, and you, in turn, hold me from behind. If you want to kill me, I'll kill Dancong. If you don't kill me, I won't touch him, so we both can be at ease.

Then, we'll go back to the supervisory institution together.

I want to hear the head of the supervisory institution tell me in person that I can join without any charges. Better yet, have the emperor issue a decree to confirm my identity. Only then will I release Dancong, otherwise, I'd rather crush him to death..."

Dancong frowned slightly, suddenly unsure of what Du Ge was up to. Being caught by a Void Refinement Realm individual meant handing over his life!

Could it be that he had some other skill?

Suddenly, he remembered the passive energy flowing into his body, those spiritual powers that were peculiar...
