Chapter 1157 Exploit
Quintus followed after the guard to the entrance. Just as expected, Zion was waiting there alone.
Quintus then glanced at Zion before gesturing to the guard, to which the guard nodded before walking
away, seemingly attempting to locate any possible threats, such as an ambush.
“There’s no need for that. I came alone!” Zion smiled.
“President Zeigler, we’ve walked away from the mess and came hiding within this cave. Is there really a
need to exterminate us all?” Quintus asked warily.
To his surprise, Zion smiled. “Who said I’m here to wipe out all of you? I’m just here for a quick
discussion.”
“A discussion?” Quintus’ expression clearly indicated that he was in disbelief. “The president of
Warriors Alliance actually wants to discuss something with us? The Malison Sect?”
Quintus continued, “We’re all Demonic Cultivators. In the eyes of your people, we’re monsters to be
terminated. Yet, here you are, telling me that you want to discuss something with us?”
“As I said, I’m here for a discussion. I wouldn’t be talking to you right now if I were here to kill all of you,
would I? Besides, is there anyone in the Malison Sect who could stop me even if I came alone?” Zion
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsaid with arrogance overflowing in him.
However, he indeed had the right to put on airs, for no one in the Malison Sect was capable of putting
up a fight against him.
His statement had Quintus stuttered for a second, as he, too, was well aware of this fact. Hence,
Quintus made a welcoming gesture and said, “President Zeigler, this way, please.”
Zion followed Quintus into the cave before arriving at a hall where he was asked to take a seat by
Quintus.
As he sat there, Zion examined the hall. Though the hall was not exactly sizeable, it was well
decorated.
“President Zeigler, you may now tell me what you want to discuss with us!” Quintus said to Zion.
Zion then looked around, shifting his gaze from one guard to another before smiling. “Mr. Zabel, what
I’m about to say is classified, so I’d prefer not to let anyone else know.”
His words immediately had Quintus frowning.
If he had to remove everyone from the hall, it would mean that Quintus will have to face Zion alone,
which he reckoned that it was actually quite intimidating.
On the other hand, Zion, who saw through Quintus’ thoughts, sneered instantly. “Mr. Zabel, if I want to
kill you, these guards would not even be able to hold me for a second.”
“Leave us!”
Quintus waved his hand right after hearing Zion’s words and gestured for his subordinates to leave.
As soon as everyone left the scene, Quintus turned toward Zion and said, “President Zeigler, can you
tell me about it now?”
“I’m here to have you assassinate someone for me.”
Zion spat out his intention finally.
“Assassination?” Quintus stumbled for a second before bursting into laughter. “President Zeigler, you’re
kidding me, right? I can’t figure out a reason why the Warriors Alliance would need me to kill someone
on your behalf. Are you perhaps thinking of using me to assassinate your enemy, have me arrested
after I did your dirty work, and use this as a credit for yourself, President Zeigler?”
Quintus was not someone to be fooled. He was well aware that there were plenty of stronger ones in
Jadeborough Warriors Alliance. With the abundance of talents in the alliance, there really was no
reason to come looking for him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAside from that, they were all Demonic Cultivators, which led to Quintus wondering if it was okay for
Zion if the other sects found out he was dealing with a Demonic Cultivator.
The president of Warriors Alliance working with a Demonic Cultivator would make quite big news.
Hence, it looked like Zion was trying to use him by having him arrested after he did the dirty work for
Zion so that Zion could gain more reputation.
“Mr. Zabel, I’m afraid you got me all wrong. I’m asking you to do me a favor because it’s not very
convenient for me to do it myself,” Zion explained with a smile.
“You can’t do it yourself? Then why don’t you find someone else? I mean, there are so many families
and people in the Warriors Alliance, no? Why must you ask for a favor from me? Who knows if you’re
plotting something behind this? Do you think I’ll buy what you say without a valid explanation? We’d
better stop talking about this!”
Quintus was very determined that he wouldn’t do Zion’s dirty work.
Zion’s expression turned stern upon Quintus’ words. He then said, “Mr. Zabel, are you not going to
consider it again?”
“No. I refuse to be used by you even if you are to eliminate the Malison Sect today!”
As he said that, Quintus had already prepared himself for a battle.
