The Legendary Man novel Chapter 1104

Self-destruct? Joshua widened his eyes at the werewolves upon hearing Zachary’s words.

A violent fluctuation was spotted around the werewolf warriors, trapping the God Realm cultivator as their bodies rapidly expanded.

Meanwhile, Kane and Andy grabbed Joshua’s arms and leaped backward.

Zachary raised a spirit shield in front of them and protected Joshua behind him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The trio brought Joshua hundreds of meters away while a series of explosions occurred.

Each explosion was accompanied by violent spiritual energy fluctuations.

Joshua’s eyes reddened.

He knew each detonation represented the sacrifice of a Grandmaster Realm werewolf cultivator. Dozens of them self-destructed merely to save me!

Vigorously, Joshua freed himself from Kane and Andy.

Before Zachary could speak a word, Joshua pushed him aside.

Joshua staggered as he stared at the blasts occurring hundreds of meters away.

Then, he pointed at Zachary. “Is it just because they’re your soldiers that you’ll sacrifice their lives with a single command? Are you telling me this is Asura’s Office? What kind of organization have I been risking my life to protect? Or Jonathan with his?”

His heart was filled with despair at that moment.

Over a decade ago, the Whitley family was attacked by the eight respectable families. They faced a force nearly five times the size of theirs. In order to ensure their kin escaped safely, a number of them chose to self-destruct and took their enemies down with them.

From them on, Joshua knew what to do.

He told himself that he could only hope to exact revenge if he stayed alive. Even if he had to grovel before another, even if he had to serve the eight respectable families as their lapdog, he was going to keep on living.

For the past ten years, he had endured plenty of humiliation and tests that the eight respectable families put him through, either openly or secretly, to gain a firm foothold.

Joshua wasn’t even disturbed when Wilbur betrayed him because, from his perspective, he had nothing else left to lose.

However, at that moment, when he saw Asura’s Office’s cultivators sacrificing their lives to extend the life of a stranger they had never met before, something inside him snapped. This looks exactly like the scene from more than ten years ago. I clung to life for over a decade so I could have my revenge, yet, today, the nightmare I’ve failed to remove from my mind is replaying before my eyes. I don’t know how to… How am I supposed to accept this?

Suddenly, Joshua felt someone placing a hand on his shoulder. Just as he tried to shove the hand away, he was numbed by a jolt of electricity.

When he turned around, he saw it was Kane.

Kane grinned at Joshua. “Joshua, open your eyes and take a good look at the team behind you. Every one of us here is an irreplaceable member of Asura’s Office. We won’t just ask our subordinates to sacrifice themselves in cold blood. The only reason we aren’t joining them right now is that we still need to relay commands. When it’s our turn, the three of us won’t hesitate to die in front of you, either. You should leave. The outcome has been decided. Eastern Allied Army has lost.”

Upon finishing his sentence, he nodded at Joshua with gratitude and stood together with Zachary.
