776 No Choice Lef

Cass felt as if his five visceras and six bowels had been shattered by the enemy. He sensed a warm feeling rising up his throat and spat out a mouthful of blood.

His body tottered on the verge of collapse, and his consciousness began to turn somewhat fuzzy.

The punch just a moment ago could be said to have contained Li Yunmu's full strength, and it had thrown Cass far away.

Li Yunmu raised his fist and calmly said, "I don't want to kill you! You can go! If I wanted to kill you, it would be as simple as stomping on an ant, but you aren't worth it to dirty my hands."

Cass covered his chest while blood seeped out of his mouth. He bit his lip and said, "If you let me go today, then you will regret it! There will definitely be a day when my appearance will signify your death."

Li Yunmu looked at him calmly. "You should give it your best! But now, I have a very serious problem here and want to ask you something! I hope that you can reply to me truthfully!"

Cass didn't back down and disdainfully said, "Feel free to kill me or boil me, but if you want to pry open my mouth, you can just dream on!"

"You want to act like a man! But I know many methods of torturing people. If you think that you can endure them, go ahead, and I will consider releasing you at the end. But if you answer my questions, I promise that I will let you go right away, and if I say so, I will definitely let you go!"

Upon hearing Li Yunmu's offer, Cass turned silent. Who knew what sort of torment awaited him right then? He might as well just kill himself!

The moment Cass prepared to commit suicide, Li Yunmu immediately stopped him and coldly said, "You intend to abandon your people and die? You think that's a good trade? Your great hatred is still unavenged, so you must continue to live on!"

Li Yunmu's words caused Cass' eyes turn red, and he furiously howled, "I won't let you go!"

"I know, and since you want to take revenge against me, you must keep living. Understand? If you keep seeking death, how will you take revenge against me? Am I right?

"Alright, you almost grinded away all of my endurance. Now tell me, who sent you against me? Since you hid yourself in the Origin World to assassinate me, you must have found a place to stay for some time. Tell me about it!"

Cass took a deep breath, suddenly feeling that Li Yunmu was correct. He had to keep on living, for only by doing so could he take his revenge. Suicide was completely meaningless.

Moreover, the people who had taken him in hadn't been completely sincere toward him, so he might as well just exchange them for his life.

"Cangyue Sect! It's formed of experts from the parallel planes, and the reason why they came to the Origin World is to get rid of you! You should know about the matter of Olympus and the Eight attacking Asgard, right? That was because of the information released by Cangyue Sect! Only because of it did Heavenly Gods Council and the Eight find a common ground and jointly attack Asgard!"

Li Yunmu narrowed his eyes. It seemed that it was the doing of the newly appeared intelligence organization! Ever since Underworld Serpent stopped existing, Cangyue Sect's strength had increased fiercely. But it was completely out of his expectations that it would have been formed by the powerhouses from the parallel planes he had devoured.

If Underworld Serpent still existed, they would be somewhat stifled, but Underworld Serpent had disappeared, so the entire Origin World's intelligence network had fallen into the hands of Cangyue Sect.

If Cass hadn't told Li Yunmu that those people were plotting against him, he would have thought of making use of their intelligence about the happenings in the Origin World.

But once he learned that it was an enemy nest that was scheming to get rid of him, he couldn't just let them go.

Li Yunmu went to Cass' side step by step, making Cass start to panic. Just a moment ago, he was told that he would be allowed to go, but could it be that Li Yunmu was reneging on his word? He should have known that his personal enemy should not be trusted!

Li Yunmu took hold of Cass' shoulder and calmly said, "I feel like we should cooperate once. If our cooperation is successful, I will give you compensation."

Cass looked up at him with fury in his eyes. "What do you mean? Are you insulting me? If you want to kill me, then go ahead! You killed my family and destroyed my world, so why are you trying to act like a good person?"

"I am really sorry about your family, and the responsibility for their demise is indeed mine. But I am not someone wicked beyond redemption, like you imagine. I had to do it for my family.

"For your family, you abandoned all reason and came to take vengeance against me. I understand that, which is why you are still alive. Do you think that you can defeat me with your present strength?"

Cass gulped down the saliva in his mouth. Moments ago, he could be said to have gained first-hand experience of Li Yunmu's strength, and he hadn't had any ability to retaliate. If he continued fighting with Li Yunmu, he certainly would end up as a tragic sight.

Cass took a deep breath and angrily said, "Hmph, do you think I believe your words?"

Li Yunmu raised his head and calmly said, "Even if you don't believe it, do you have any choice in the matter? You have already told me about Cangyue Sect, so do you think you can still return to its embrace? Their intelligence network is formidable, so what do you think would happen if I let out the news that you betrayed them? Who do you think they would believe?"

Cass suddenly stood up and rushed at Li Yunmu while furiously howling, "You bastard."

"I am only guiding you toward the only path you can take! You don't have any other choice!"

Cass gritted his teeth and stared rigidly at Li Yunmu. He wished that he could slice this enemy of his into pieces right there and then.

But he was completely clear in his heart that he wasn't Li Yunmu's opponent, so what could be done?

Li Yunmu took hold of Cass' chin and said, "I will give you a choice! Follow me, and I will help you increase your strength. Wait until you reach my level, then you can challenge me and take your revenge whenever you feel like it. At that time, even if I am killed by you, I won't complain. Given your present skill, ha ha, you're no more than trash in the Origin World, let alone someone who can challenge me."

Li Yunmu's words weren't a lie, but rather facts. Cass also understood it in his heart, but he had been corroded by hatred to the extent that he couldn't think rationally.

Yet what was his enemy that stood right in front of him doing? He actually wanted to help him get revenge? What exactly was going through that man's head? When confronted with someone who had come to take revenge against him, shouldn't Li Yunmu's first action be to eliminate them quickly? Where would one find a fool like him who would help the enemy?
