Chapter 1045: Rong Huangde: I Did It!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Without Jordan and Rong Huangde, the restraints on him had been lifted. The moment Shaun returned to the present, he would be the number one person in the world. No one could compete with him anymore.
After Shaun left, the Handley brothers looked at Jordan and Lauren’s bodies. They were in a dilemma.
“Brother, what should we do with their bodies?” Harvey asked.
In this era, cremation was not yet widespread.
Terrence said, “Jordan has contributed to our nation after all. We should buy a better coffin and bury them in our family’s graveyard.”
!!
“Alright!”
Two hours later, Terrence and Harvey placed Jordan and Lauren in a coffin and buried them in the ground.
By now, Rong Huangde had already woken up.
Although he had been shot three times, Rong Huangde was fine after being treated by the AI robot.
Rong Huangde touched his newly-recovered wounds which still ached slightly, but he smiled.
“A narrow escape from death! Deity Jordan, your risky move had me so worried.”
Rong Huangde sighed and immediately asked the black-armored warrior, “After I died, did the Handley family say where that place was? Show me the surveillance footage!”
The black-armored warrior quickly projected the footage into the air for Rong Huangde to see.
On the screen, the Handley brothers were telling Shaun that that place was Mount Denali.
Rong Huangde stood up. “Mount Denali! d.a.m.n it, I think I’ve sent someone to investigate that place, but it seems to be guarded. I thought it was just a military experimental base. I didn’t expect there to be an immortal lake there!”
Actually, Rong Huangde had sent people to investigate every spot in the world. However, the world was too big, and he didn’t want to expose his power. So there were many places that he didn’t investigate thoroughly.
Now that he knew that the mysterious place was Mount Denali, Rong Huangde became excited.
Mount Denali. So what if it was heavily guarded? How difficult could it be for Rong Huangde to break in?
With the Rong family’s ability, they could easily break in and occupy that place!
“Hahahaha, I did it! I finally know the biggest secret in the world! With it, our family’s research will definitely improve!”
Just like Shaun, Rong Huangde believed that he was the final victor.
He believed that Shaun must have already returned to the present, but he didn’t care. When Rong Huangde returned, the Rong family would still be under his control. The moment he exposed Shaun’s ident.i.ty, killing him would be easy.
However, before going back, he had something else to do.
“What’s Jordans’ situation now? Is he dead?”
Rong Huangde wondered.
The black-armored warrior said, “Based on Master’s orders, we did not help him when he was in danger. He has been placed in a coffin and buried at coordinates x.x.x.”
Rong Huangde narrowed his eyes. “Jordan, you’re too powerful. You’ve helped me solve the problem that has troubled me for decades in such a short period of time. But now, you’re of no use to me. In order to prevent you from taking away Bingshao’s position as master of the world after I die, I still have to kill you!”
Rong Huangde ordered the black-armored warrior, “Take me to that place. I must kill Jordan!”
The black-armored warrior flew to the Handley family’s graveyard with Rong Huangde. There was a new grave here. It belonged to Jordan and Lauren.
There was also a tombstone on it. It read: Tomb of a Hero.
When Rong Huangde saw this, he couldn’t help rolling his eyes. “The Handley brothers are really hypocritical. They were the ones who teamed up with their kid to kill Jordan and his wife. But they still have the cheek to call him a hero after burying him. If you really respect Jordan so much, why did you help Shaun kill them?
“Foolish country b.u.mpkins. A small-town boy from the Handley family wants to become the master of the world? How ridiculous!”
Smack!
Rong Huangde took out a laser weapon and cut off the tombstone.
He then ordered the black-armored warrior. “Remove the soil and open the coffin. I must kill the Deity with my own hands!”
The black-armored warrior immediately dug into the soil. It had mechanical hands so digging was a very easy task for it. In just a few seconds, a huge black coffin appeared.
Seeing this coffin, Rong Huangde suddenly felt rather agitated.
“Jordan, you killed my grandson. Do you really think I won’t take revenge?”
Rong Huangde held a laser weapon and was ready to kill Jordan “again”.
The coffin slowly opened. Indeed, Jordan and Lauren were lying inside.
“Goodbye. There will be no more Deities in this world!”
Rong Huangde was about to attack Jordan when a white cat suddenly flashed past.
“Meow.”
“Ah!”
Rong Huangde felt as if his entire body had been electrocuted. The cat’s claws were abnormally fierce as it grabbed Rong Huangde’s laser weapon.
Rong Huangde’s hand was scratched so badly that he was incapacitated.
“This cat…”
Rong Huangde looked at the white cat and suddenly felt that it looked very similar to the white cat that he had seen in the surveillance cameras.
That’s right, this white cat was Sakura!
However, it was now Lauren’s pet.
Suddenly, Jordan and Lauren woke up at the same time. Jordan took advantage of the fact that Rong Huangde was entangled by Sakura to throw a dart.
The dart hit Rong Huangde’s neck, piercing straight into a vital point in his throat!
“Urgh!”
Rong Huangde knelt on the ground and stared at Jordan in disbelief. He never expected Jordan to be “resurrected” even faster than him.
“You… you did it on purpose…”
Rong Huangde pointed at Jordan as he gasped for breath.
Jordan smiled. “That’s right. I woke up a long time ago and have been waiting for you to come and kill me. After all, you’re so considerate to me. I would feel bad making the first move. I killed your grandson after all. Do you think I haven’t been on my guard? Do you think I won’t want to eliminate future troubles?!
“Go to h.e.l.l!”
Swis.h.!.+
Jordan threw another dart, killing Rong Huangde on the spot.
At this moment, the black-armored warrior also attacked Jordan and Lauren.
Even when Jordan was wearing the Iron Man armor, he could not defeat a black-armored warrior. Now, without any armor, he was just flesh and blood and had no ability to fly.
In a one-on-one battle, he was no match for it at all.
However, he was not fighting alone. He had a robot warrior too.
Little Steele was not just an artificial intelligence robot. Jordan also equipped him with the most advanced offensive weapons.
Bang!
Little Steele instantly appeared and fired a laser cannon at the black-armored warrior.
Jordan instructed it. “Little Steele, don’t be so rash. Try to control its system first and destroy its weapons a.r.s.enal.”
Little Steele complied: “Understood, Master.”
With a loud bang, the huge black-armored warrior fell in front of the mini-sized Little Steele.
