Lord Death Is Now Back Home by Chris novel Chapter 1165

Chapter 1165: The Wrath of the Shadow Alliance

"Death, don't get angry yet, I will investigate this matter thoroughly," Slayer, the king of the Shadow Alliance, commanded tens of thousands of assassins globally. His power was immense, so much so that even kings of small nations treated him with great respect.

There had once been a small country that offended the Shadow Alliance. In retaliation, Slayer sent hundreds of assassins to cleanly eradicate the country's top echelons, leading directly to the nation's collapse. From then on, Slayer's name resonated with terror across the world.

Yet, at this moment, facing Chris Shelby, Slayer appeared exceedingly cautious. There was no choice; Chris Shelby was simply too fearsome. A few years ago, the Shadow Alliance took a contract worth ten billion dollars. The target was none other than Chris Shelby himself!

For the bounty, the Shadow Alliance dispatched thirteen top assassins. However, all thirteen were killed by Chris Shelby. Not only that, but Chris Shelby had also made his way to the headquarters of the Shadow Alliance. He single-handedly slaughtered tens of thousands of assassins. Slayer himself had fought Chris Shelby, but unfortunately, he was defeated.

Nevertheless, Chris Shelby did not kill Slayer but instead gave him a chance. Since then, Slayer ordered that no further assassination attempts on Chris Shelby should be accepted. Slayer knew that offending Chris Shelby could mean not just his death, but a burying ground for him.

Now, having received a call from Chris Shelby stating that his wife had been targeted by an assassin from the Shadow Alliance, Slayer was utterly terrified.

"Hmph," Chris Shelby snorted coldly and said, "I don't want to hear so many explanations. This is the second assassination attempt. If there is a third, don't blame me for not reminding you."

"Yes, yes!" Slayer hurriedly nodded and said, "I am ordering right now to cancel the assassination assignment on your wife!"

"Good," Chris Shelby nodded satisfactorily, his face still cold, "Tell me, who put out the bounty on my wife?"

"Well..." Slayer hesitated for a moment and said, "Death, you should know our rules at the Shadow Alliance. We absolutely cannot disclose the client's information..."

Before Slayer could finish, Chris Shelby, with a cold expression, interrupted, "Cut the crap and tell me right now who put out the bounty to assassinate my wife, or I'll destroy your entire Shadow Alliance."

Upon hearing this, Slayer fell silent for a moment. He knew Chris Shelby was a man of his word, and provoking him could indeed lead to the annihilation of the entire Shadow Alliance. After a brief silence, Slayer slowly uttered a name.

Upon hearing the name, Chris Shelby's expression instantly darkened, and a cold gleam shone in his eyes. He had never expected the person who put out a bounty to kill Esther to be him-Michael Collins, Esther's grandfather!

"Alright, I've got it," Chris said, and then he hung up the phone. After hanging up, Chris Shelby, squinting his eyes, muttered to himself, "Michael Collins, I thought you had finally settled down. I never expected you to be so relentless as to dare put a hit on my wife. It seems that killing you is the only way to bring peace to the East Coast."
