King's Awakening

Chapter 557: Chapter 557: George’s Fear!
 

Pant pant pant!

Thump thump thump…

Bursts of hurried footsteps interspersed with steady breathing noises emerged from all directions, like the roar of a tidal wave.

What…???

Hearing these sounds, George and the others were stunned, unable to grasp what was happening.

Just by listening to these footsteps, it was clear that potentially tens of thousands of people were steadily approaching them.

“Could it be, this bastard has other reinforcements?!” George’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pan, feeling a sense of suffocation choking him.

He felt as if he was being fooled by White Mitchell.

Fuck!!!

George ground his teeth in anger.

However, even until now, George still didn’t believe that these people were Mitchell’s.

In his view, it was more likely that Mitchell had allied with others to amass this number of people.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The opening of Emperor Qing’s Relics was imminent. Every faction was trying their best to strengthen their power, or directly weaken their opponents’ strength.

To prepare for this, George had made ample preparations.

However, he hadn’t expected to be duped by Mitchell!

To him, this was an utterly disgraceful humiliation!

“Fine! Fair enough! You’re ruthless! Today, I yield!” Said George, giving White Mitchell a gloomy glance, but didn’t dwell on it.

Afterward, everyone saw George slowly turn his face toward an unknown direction and shout: “I wonder which City Lord I’m addressing!? Could you show yourself?

I am George. Since we all want to enter Emperor Qing’s Relics, why don’t we join forces?

How about this? After entering the Emperor Qing’s Relics, I am willing to give sixty percent of what Heavenly Gang City acquires to you.”

“If you have concerns, I am willing to make an oath of heaven!”

The Oath of Heaven George mentioned was analogous to a sort of rule, one of the rules in the Forbidden Land.

Any contracts or treaties from the outside world couldn’t compare to an Oath of Heaven here.

Because, once an Oath of Heaven is made, if violated, it will affect one’s cultivation level.

In severe cases, it could even be lethal.

There was once a person who had made an Oath of Heaven, and because he violated it, he was literally struck dead by lightning.

Although these so-called Oaths of Heaven may seem mysterious and even fraudulent to the outside world,

In the Forbidden Land, they are real.

This is a place outsiders cannot reach. Even if ordinary people spent their entire lives, or even several generations trying, they may not touch the existence of the Forbidden Land.

Therefore, everything here is not indicated by outsiders.

Even some things in the outside world that seem mysterious, here, they exist for real.

Take the Emperor Qing’s Relics as an example!

This was left by a super-strong being who lived in an ancient era. No one knows how powerful he was. It’s known only that his retreat was enigmatic and contains immense energy!

However, after George proposed an Oath of Heaven as a condition, there was no response from the unseen people.

The only thing that responded to him were the increasingly intense and louder footsteps!

Thud thud thud…

The powerful and resolute footsteps, like a heartbeat pulling at one’s heart, caused the hearts of the strong individuals by George’s side to tremble involuntarily, revealing expressions of fear and anxiety!

Seeing no response, George’s face grew increasingly grave, as if a thick cloud hovered over his head, inescapable, inescapable!!!
