CHAPTER 1228 NO LONGER EXISTS

"He came," said Bao Rongdong as he gasped for breath. He felt exhausted.

He had just heard Jiang Ning fighting His Lordship. That sort of commotion was inconceivable to him.

They were both so genuinely formidable!

Bao Rongdong used to think that he was His Lordship's equal. From the looks of it now, His Lordship didn't kill him only because Qing Sect posed a threat to him.

Now that Jiang Ning had destroyed Qing Sect...

Bao Rongdong could hear Zhang Tiankai and the others outside in the hall. Those fools had sent themselves to their deaths by giving Jiang Ning the chance to finish them off in one fell swoop.

"His Lordship..."

"He escaped," sneered Jiang Ning.

GULP!

Bao Rongdong's face was ghastly pale as he swallowed his saliva. Disbelief flashed across his face.

How could someone like His Lordship run away?

Did Jiang Ning beat him up so badly that he had to escape?

How strong could Jiang Ning be?

"Who is he?" asked Jiang Ning as he stared at Bao Rongdong. "I guess you ought to know."

"That's right. I do know," said Bao Rongdong as he closed his eyes to ease his fatigue. "But I don't dare to say it."

"You're already going to die and you're still not going to say it?" asked Jiang Ning. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"I can't say it even if I'm going to die," said Bao Rongdong as he laughed bitterly. "I didn't think that I would end up like this. Perhaps from the moment that His Lordship forced me to go overseas 20 years ago and hunt for the manual, I was already destined to die. But...I didn't think I would come to this end.”

Bao Rongdong had been wary all his life, be it towards Chen Huangtang, his two guards, or even each member of Qing Sect.

But in the end, he still miscalculated.

Perhaps there wasn't a single soul he could trust around him, and His Lordship had already infiltrated his forces.

"I know that you want to know his identity so that you can find the manual,” said Bao Rongdong as he opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Ning, "You are powerful. Probably even stronger than His Lordship, but it's no use... you can't afford to offend him. And you can't beat him."

Bao Rongdong shook his head as he smiled bitterly.

A shred of helplessness and hopelessness emerged on his face as he muttered, "No one can go against them. No one..."

Jiang Ning stepped forward and slapped Bao Rongdong on his face!

"Who says no one can go against them?

You might be a coward, I'm not!"

Bao Rongdong looked at Jiang Ning with his lips quivering.

He suddenly stared widely and roared, "He belongs to a martial arts family! A pure line of martial artists! No one can offend them! Do you understand?"

"You have no idea. Even Hidden Sect is nothing but their plaything. Do you get it?" roared Bao Rongdong hysterically.

After yelling a few times madly, he instantly coughed violently. Blood sprayed from his mouth as he gasped hard.

"A martial arts family?" asked Jiang Ning as he frowned. He never heard about one before.

No one in the local martial arts circle, not even the likes of someone as knowledgeable Tan Xing, had ever brought up those three words.

COUGH COUGH!

Bao Rongdong coughed violently and spat more and more blood until he shrank entirely and fell straight to the ground.

"Mr Bao! Mr Bao!" shouted the butler anxiously.

Jiang Ning glanced and knew Bao Rongdong was bound to die. Not even the gods could save him.

He turned to leave without saying a word.

The hall had transformed into hell on earth.

Zhang Tiankai and the others knelt with terror brimming from their eyes. There was no sign of their previous arrogance and high-handedness.

Jiang Ning didn't even look at them. He had never thought anything of them.

"Qing Sect no longer exists," said Jiang Ning as he walked away, leaving Zhang Tiankai and the others to shiver...

"Spare us! Spare us! Please spare us!"
