Chapter 385: Go Jinx the Righteous Path to Death!
When Zhang Chu heard that the Nether God Sect had sent only two people to carry out the mission, his eyes filled with bewilderment.
He Can frowned too, turning to look at their party of three. "Just you and Zhang Chu, and you dare venture into the tiger's den? Then what did you bring me along for?"
Zitong shook his head and said earnestly, "It's you two. Once I get you to your destination, I have to head to the Northern Region. You two will lie low in Danyang until the time is ripe, then act as the 'Immortal Hand' to deal the Righteous Path a fatal blow and completely reverse the righteous and unorthodox balance of power-"
"Oh!"
He Can shuddered and leaned closer. "Really? Are you sure you're not just dumping us here so we can surrender and jinx the Righteous Path to death?"
?
Zitong frowned unhappily. "How could our superiors treat fellow disciples that way? But if you really are captured and forced to surrender, the sect won't blame you. We don't have anyone in Jingzhao Prefecture anyway, and you're even more tight-lipped than your father. No matter how they torture you, you couldn't possibly divulge the Nether God Sect's top secrets-"
He Can spread his hands. "What top secrets do I know?"
Zhang Chu's head was full of question marks too. "If the Directorate of Celestial Observation asks why the Nether God Sect went to such trouble to send us to Jingzhao Prefecture, and I say the sect wanted to cast a Gu Curse and have us jinx the Righteous Path to death, Lu Wuzhen probably won't believe me-"
"That's why you'd better not get caught."
Zitong took a stack of silver notes from his robes.
