Chapter 410: Treasure goes to those who are fated
Tong Hu kicked the table, and the items scattered across the floor.
Little Li looked at her husband and frowned. She wanted to console him but didn’t know what to say.
“These heartless fellows!”
Tong Hu squatted on the ground and roared.
Tong Hu met two more faction bosses and tried to convince them to fight against the Counter Cloud Peak Alliance.
These people had received help from Boss Ye in the past!
But Boss Ye was dead, so they didn’t give him face!
“Tong Hu… We can’t blame them, after all, BOss Ye is already…”
“Then they can forget everything? Forget how Cloud Peak has helped them for this half a year. Without Cloud Peak, would they have what they have today? Without Cloud Peak, they are nothing! They would have died long ago!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTong Hu was emotional, and his eyes turned red. He stared at his wife. Although he tried to suppress his voice, it was already deafening.
“Quieten down, don’t attract the zombies!” Little Li slapped his face like usual, but she did so with much less strength. She was the only one who could understand how frustrated her husband felt. Three months ago, she saw her husband run around to find all sorts of factions. But until now, all her hard work was useless; no one would help a fighter that would lose.
The apocalypse was cruel not just because of killings but in terms of interests.
Tong Hu’s team was the most loyal supporter of Cloud Peak. Xia Lei placed them in Ying City to be their eyes and ears. With Cloud Peak’s support, Tong Hu’s development was quick. Not only were they treated like core Cloud Peak members, but they were all four-star evolved. Even the other members of the team received benefits.
Like Little Li, Cloud Peak gave her the three-star potion and a job scroll. Their equipment was all provided by Cloud Peak. Although they weren’t as luxurious as when Boss Ye was around, they were above average.
Without the Counter Cloud Peak Alliance causing problems, Tong Hu would continue to develop in Ying City. Every week, they would send Cloud Peak some intel. Both sides worked closely together and developed together.
But the Counter Cloud Peak Alliance started to gather. Tong Hu stopped caring about hiding his identity and started running around for Cloud Peak. He contacted various factions, hoping they could form an Alliance to head to Cloud Peak and pincer the Counter Cloud Peak Alliance from both sides.
Unfortunately, the idea was good, but no one agreed. No one at all. The better ones found reasons to decline; some even mocked him.
As a result, Tong Hu had conflicts with many factions. He was not at Cloud Peak to help yet, and his squad suffered losses.
Today, there was news that Cloud Peak had been attacked for three days and was barely holding on. Tong Hu found someone else to want to convince them, but he failed again. These people weren’t willing to provide resources, much less join the fight.
“We have done all we can; I believe Cloud Peak will understand.” Little Li hugged him to console him, then bit her teeth, “We have slept together for so long; I know what you are thinking. I know you will head to Cloud Peak. You will go alone and dump all of us, right?”
Tong Hu raised his head and looked at her ugly face, “Little Li, I am going to die, you…”
“No wonder you can only marry into my family; you don’t understand, woman.” She stared at him, “You are my man; I will accompany you for everything, even in death. Our Tong Hu Squad will go and tell the brothers. Those willing can go with us; we will die at most. Anyways, we have lived long enough in the apocalypse.”
“Little Li…” His nose felt sour, and he bit his teeth, which often hurt, so he wouldn’t tear.
Relationships were a priceless treasure.
“What death, with me here, will all of you die?”
A voice broke their conversation and caused Tong Hu to jump. He held up the silver stick that Boss Ye left for him and pointed at where the voice came from.
Little Li was not as gentle, and her body surged with killing intent.
Two people walked out of the dark corner of the room and appeared in the light.
“Ye, Boss Ye!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen he saw the person, Tong Hu’s mouth opened as wide as his head. It could even fit an ostrich egg in.
Little Li pointed at Ye Zhongming in disbelief.
Tong Hu whose rage and his gratitude for his wife made him tear up twice today, his eyes turned red once more after seeing Ye Zhongming. A liquid flowed down, and he just sat on the ground and wailed.
“Boss Ye, you are not dead, you are not dead!”
The anger and frustration he had felt exploded. His voice was really loud, which caught Ah Yang and Ye Zhongming off guard. They didn’t know what he had been through for him to cry so badly.
Ye Zhongming felt warm and squatted down to tap his shoulder.
He didn’t expect that apart from the core Cloud Peak members, someone else would be willing to give up their lives for him.
Things were such a coincidence. After Ye Zhongming led Ah Yang into Ying City, he bumped into Tong Hu in this shack. He saw him asking other factions for help and how he was willing to die for Cloud Peak.
No one did such things in the apocalypse. At least, it was something he hadn’t seen in a long time. Although he disagreed with it, he respected him.
Moreover, his loyalty was to him.
Even Tong Hu didn’t know that his status in Ye Zhongming’s heart had risen to a really important position.
“Don’t cry; there are many things to do. Those people who wronged you will know what they missed.”
Ye Zhongming pulled him up and heard the couple describe what had happened since he left. He looked at the pitch-black Ying City; his expression got much colder.
