Top-Tier Superpower Student-Chapter 624 - 596: Surrender

"You killed Zhang Ya, and I won't hold you accountable for anything!" Murong Lie said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian was shocked. He knew that Murong Lie was not joking.

It was known that Zhang Ya was also a disciple of Murong Lie, with a bond of master and disciple. Yet now, Murong Lie, having found a better candidate, was willing to kill Zhang Ya to win over Lin Tian.

How despicable, how shameless, how sinister and ruthless!

In other words, if Lin Tian joined Hell and Murong Lie found a disciple with more potential than him, Lin Tian would also become a sacrificial piece.

Such a person was absolutely not someone to associate with, Lin Tian thought to himself.

Although this is what he thought, Lin Tian said aloud, "Since you've mentioned it, then Zhang Ya, I will definitely kill her!"

Upon hearing this, Murong Lie's eyes narrowed, and he said sternly, "Killing Zhang Ya is possible, but only if you are truly loyal to me. If you have other schemes in mind, I will make you wish you were dead."

Lin Tian nodded, then continued to state his demands, "Sixth, after I join you in Hell, you must help me increase my power and let me reach Half-Step Fusion Realm as soon as possible."

"Of course, Zhang Ya made such quick progress only under my personal guidance. Your potential is greater than hers, and by joining us, you will receive more than Zhang Ya ever did."

Finally, Lin Tian put forth his last condition, "I'm not exactly a good person, nor do I have any grand sense of national righteousness, but I know what gratitude means. Nidhogg has treated me well, and so has the Dragon Emperor. Before I join you in Hell, I need to go see the Dragon Emperor to bid my final farewell."

He proposed this condition as an opportunity to deliver the Red Flame Flower to the Dragon Emperor. While risky, he wanted to try it, otherwise, the Dragon Emperor and his people would truly be beyond help.

Upon hearing this condition, Murong Lie's brow furrowed, clearly unwilling to agree with Lin Tian.

Lin Tian employed a provocation tactic, "I'm just going to see them for a final farewell, and I'll be alone. Are you afraid that I could rescue them under the siege of Hell's experts?"

"Humph," Murong Lie chuckled, "Zhang Ya is a once-in-a-century genius, and even she was completely manipulated by you. You might be less powerful, but you're not to be underestimated."

"You can see the Dragon Emperor, but avoid any mischief. I've heard from your companions that you went to get the Red Flame Flower. That's quite a treasure, so I presume by now you've got the Red Flame Flower, right?"

Lin Tian cursed inwardly: Damn these beasts, not only did they fail to help them get the Red Flame Flowers, but they also assisted Murong Lie in capturing them and even exposed the news about the flowers.

Today, he truly understood the saying, fear not the god-like adversaries, but the pig-like teammates!

He thought: Those people probably don't know I got a hold of two Red Flame Flowers. I'll first hand over one to Murong Lie, he definitely won't suspect a thing.

He chuckled, pulled out a Red Flame Flower from his bosom, and handed it to Murong Lie, saying, "Now you can rest assured!"

Murong Lie took the Red Flame Flower, saying, "This is indeed a rare treasure, hard to come by. I didn't expect you would actually find it. I must not underestimate you. Let's go, I'll accompany you to meet the Dragon Emperor, but let me warn you, don't try any tricks, I'm not a pushover!"

It seemed that Murong Lie was still unaware that Lin Tian had taken two Red Flame Flowers.

"You worry too much. I just want to see the Dragon Emperor for a final farewell. After all, today we are superior and subordinate, tomorrow, we will be mortal enemies."

"That would be for the best!" Murong Lie clearly didn't trust Lin Tian, but he was very confident, believing that with him by Lin Tian's side, nothing could go wrong.

At the very end of a row of bungalows, in the last house, stood more than a hundred men in black. They were all experts above the level of Condensed Mirror, half of them being masters of the Half-Step Fusion Realm. They were all elites under Murong Lie's command, and this time, to capture the Dragon Emperor, Murong Lie had nearly mobilized all the top experts from Hell.

Inside, the Dragon Emperor and a number of Sect Masters were imprisoned, including Huo Shaotian, Jian Cangsheng, and their group.

Murong Lie led Lin Tian to a window, opened it, and said, "Speak any words you have from here!"

As the window opened, the people inside turned to look outside. Their first glance fell on Lin Tian, and with the second, they saw Murong Lie.

All of them were shocked, and the Dragon Emperor was the first to speak, "Lin Tian, why are you with him? Do you know he is Murong Lie, the 'King Yan' of Hell, a ruthless killer, the one who has captured us all? Don't trust him!"

Lin Tian said, "I know he is Murong Lie. Today I am here to bid you all a final farewell. Tomorrow, I will officially join Hell."

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Emperor's mouth twitched with angry eyes, but inside, he was skeptical.

Lin Tian was chosen by the old chief, and the chief's judgment in people never errs, so the Dragon Emperor entirely refused to believe Lin Tian would betray Nidhogg.

He trusted Lin Tian, but that didn't mean others did as well.

Huo Shaotian angrily said, "Lin Tian, why would you join Hell? They are all ruthless killers. I had over a dozen disciples, all killed by these demons from Hell."

Lin Tian said, "To stay alive. Only by joining them can I survive, while you stubborn people who refuse to compromise with Hell can only die."

Jian Cangsheng shouted, "Lin Tian, when faced with the white python, you were willing to give us a chance at life, now how can you bow down to Hell, to surrender to them to stay alive? I really misunderstood you!"

"They offer me a woman, teach me martial arts, give me everything I want. Why shouldn't I join them? By joining them, I will gain immense glory. I'm still so young; should I end up buried in the wilderness like you, with just one life, and nothing left after death?"

The Dragon Emperor stepped forward, pointing at Lin Tian and roared, "Lin Tian, without us, Nidhogg, you would have died long ago! Have you forgotten who saved you when you were seizing the Red Flame Stone? Have you forgotten who wanted to kill you and who risked their life to save you when you were at the bottom of the sea seizing the Ability Stone!"

The Dragon Emperor subtly pointed to Murong Lie. Murong Lie stepped forward, "Back then, Lin Tian and I were enemies, and I had to kill him. In the future, Lin Tian and I will be mentor and disciple. Whoever dares to kill him, I will repay tenfold!"

Lin Tian pointed at the Dragon Emperor and retorted, "I admit, you've saved my life several times, but if it weren't for your damned missions, would I have come close to death so many times? I risked my life to complete the tasks you assigned to me, and in the end, I got nothing—no money, no woman, no power. What right do you have to point at me now?"
