Chapter 399: Chapter 353: Destruction Will Surely Prefers Me_2

I had become so powerful myself.

"I’m going to continue live streaming! With the four Eye Demon brothers!" Christina announced.

"What about you?" Xiao Baihong asked Wu Xiaode.

"I might go and work on my combat skills." Wu Xiaode replied.

—The Human Emperor’s Token in his hand still hadn’t been used.

His boxing skills had just begun, and to improve further, he needed to go to the Human Emperor’s Secret Realm.

"You’re doing the right thing. Don’t give up on enhancing your own strength just because you have ’End’ and ’Descent.’ Keep in mind that your own strength is the foundation of these two powers. The stronger you are, the stronger they will be," Audrey sincerely suggested.

"I see, I will definitely keep that in mind," Wu Xiaode gratefully said.

He suddenly noticed a look of fatigue in Audrey’s expression, and every so often, a hint of pain flashed across her face.

There was no doubt that her injuries from the surprise attack by the five Death Lords had not yet healed.

Plus, she had released that ghost Divine Skill—

Wu Xiaode thought for a moment and then spoke to the Void:

"When I go to cultivate, someone needs to hold the fort here. Please give her a hand, she’s a trustworthy friend."

The other three were utterly baffled.

The Void stirred.

A peach quietly fell, caught by Wu Xiaode, and placed on Audrey’s plate.

"Eat,"

Wu Xiaode said succinctly.

Audrey was somewhat puzzled, glancing at the peach and then back at Wu Xiaode.

"If it’s not too much trouble, please look after Shen Feixue from now on,"

Wu Xiaode said.

Audrey understood, nodded, and took a bite of the peach.

After a few breaths,

She suddenly bowed her head, devouring the entire peach in one go, even the pit was cleanly gnawed.

After discarding the pit, Audrey took a deep breath and murmured:

"I feel like I’m eighteen again... capable of fighting anyone for three hundred rounds."

Pfft!

Feixue sprayed juice from her mouth.

Wu Xiaode suddenly lowered his eyes and wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, "You guys eat up, I’m going to meet a friend."

"I’ve recovered," Audrey said.

"It’s alright, it’s a friend," Wu Xiaode said with a smile.

Only then did Audrey relax, turning her attention back to the fried fish on her plate.

Wu Xiaode stood up and walked out of the bar.

Quiet Demon Mist emerged from behind him, enveloping Xiao Baihong, Shen Feixue, and Audrey entirely.

As he stepped out of the bar, the entire place was completely shrouded.

From the outside street, the bar had vanished.

Wu Xiaode stood on the street.

He looked towards the crossroads, where a person appeared.

It was a skinny old man, squatting on the back of a chair, holding a newspaper in his hand.

Behind him stood neatly arranged rows of black-clad men, armed with various weapons, silent and still.

Meanwhile,

Wu Xiaode found some lush green leaves growing at the ends of his hair, twining around his shoulders, and peach blossoms blooming alongside.

—The power of the Queen Mother of the West was with him.

He steadied his heart and looked askance at the gaunt old man.

"Are you from the Council?"

"I am a Golden Emblem councilor, the chairman, and I won’t say my name, but you have already torn up the interrogation notice—do you understand the consequences of doing so?" the old man said slowly.

Wu Xiaode gave a slight smile, stretched his neck, and waved his hand.

Mist surged.

Everything around them disappeared cleanly from the eyes of the onlookers.

They could no longer see each other and couldn’t make contact with anyone around them.

The mist isolated every individual.

—Wu Xiaode had to do this, after all, the situation was a life-and-death one for him.

And the Queen Mother herself was right behind him.

She was the key to it all.

He could not let any harm come to her!

"All I know is that guy ambushed me, and after the Council discovered it, it seems he suffered no consequences,"

Wu Xiaode said with a smile at the corner of his mouth, as if he was talking about something completely unrelated to him.

"Him? He’s a descendant of a three-generation-old council elder and also a councilor. Councilors enjoy immunity; no one can do anything about him,"

the old man said.

The gaunt old man said helplessly.

He looked down at the newspaper in front of him.

The images and text on the newspaper kept changing and refreshing rapidly, but each new photograph was a report of everyone dying tragically.

Monsters.

Soul Power below 50, yet able to kill everyone?

Then there was no choice, they had to strangle this dangerous fellow here!

"What do you want?"

The gaunt old man asked indifferently.

Wu Xiaode sensed something.

——Although the other party did not release any intent to kill, he just knew it.

If the next sentence wasn’t good, it would be the moment for both sides to make a move.

But what of it?

Being pushed to this extent, did he still need to seek peace through compromise?

No—

Fighting was a simple matter.

Killing and fighting were always simple matters.

But killing and fighting had nothing to do with "winning."

He had more important things to do.

Wu Xiaode, with a reminiscent expression, said, "I remember the Destruction Council’s purpose is to destroy the world, to achieve the ’End’, yet I do not know how to become a council member."

The gaunt old man was somewhat surprised.

He was ready to make a move, but since the other party asked this, was he admitting defeat?

The gaunt old man said, "You need to gain recognition from the book of Destruction Laws and be acknowledged by the Destruction Will."

"I want to become a council member now," Wu Xiaode said.

Yes, becoming a council member would grant him immunity!

"You? You would need the recommendation of at least five council members before you can enter this process," the gaunt old man said with a smirk.

Wu Xiaode spread his arms and smiled, saying:

"Then, is anyone willing to support me? Once I become a council member, I’ll go and wipe out the whole family of that so-called ghost Tri-Ancestor Elder—is anyone fond of this idea? Come support me."

The gaunt old man snorted coldly, about to speak, when suddenly his expression changed.

The Void opened.

Four glittering golden Destruction Emblems floated in front of Wu Xiaode.

——Four council members were supporting him!

But he was just a newcomer; how could he have the support of four council members?

"It seems the so-called Tri-Ancestor Elder has offended quite a few people as well," Wu Xiaode said with a beaming smile.

"You need five council members’ support, you are still one council member short," the gaunt old man said.

"My friends."

Wu Xiaode looked toward the Void, as if it were filled with onlooking members of the Destruction Council, and calmly said:

"One more to support me, and once I’m a council member, I’ll kill this old man as well."

The gaunt old man bellowed, "The Destruction Council forbids members from killing each other!"

——As if afraid of him making a move, the Void flashed, and five more golden badges appeared beside Wu Xiaode.

Nine badges now!

This signified that nine council members were supporting Wu Xiaode!

——The Destruction Council favored covert assassinations.

In such an organization, to say there weren’t any personal grudges or rivalries, that would be impossible.

If someone was willing to be that sharp knife, to eliminate someone annoying for them, it’s naturally a delightful matter.

——Without taking action themselves, without using their own resources, just by offering support.

Surely someone would be tempted.

Moreover, this kid had already caused a few incidents, seeming quite promising.

Even if it failed, it didn’t matter.

After all, they would not lose anything.

"We were just joking a moment ago, after all, who would publicize the killing of council members? Impossible, right?"

Wu Xiaode laughed.

The gaunt old man glared at him.

Wu Xiaode, looking at the bright Golden Light in front of him, spoke calmly and slowly:

"You’re all busy with power struggles, busy suppressing newcomers, busy maintaining the established hierarchy—but have you ever thought about what the Destruction Council really needs?"

He paused for a moment, then continued:

"Your Destruction Will would definitely prefer me."

"Because you want too much."

"And I only want destruction—"

"All of you who scheme behind people’s backs have to die, truly, once I become a council member, all of you will meet your destruction."
