My Waste Husband
Chapter 1283

Chapter 1283

Steel City once again returned to a state of calm.

Henry and Li did not hesitate. After Peze left, they walked out of the alley.

As soon as they walked out of the alley, they heard a slight shouting.

"Li? Is that you? Li?"

Looking at the direction of the voice, a few men and women could be seen running towards them. The oldest man among them was in his forties and had an anxious look on his face.

"Captain?" Li's face showed joy similar to meeting with an old friend in a different country. "Why are all of you here?"

The middle-aged man ran to Li while gasping for breath. "Oh my God, it really is you. They said that saw you being chased, I didn't believe it at first. Why are you here? No one can enter this city as they please nowadays, can't they?"

Li sighed, then said, "That's a long story. Why are you here?"

"By invitation, of course." the middle- aged man said, "All the forces of the underground world have been invited to gather here, the Nine Fatale would naturally be invited here as well. Who's this?"

The man looked at Henry curiously and asked.

"Captain, could you please find us somewhere to stay first? There are some things we have to talk about."

"Okay, follow me, quickly. By the way, were those men who chased after you just now Reapers?" The man asked. When he mentioned the Reapers, fearful expressions appeared on the faces of the

men and women. When they saw Li nod with certainty, all of them held their breaths in fear.

To them, the Reapers brought the same meaning as fear.

"Come on, let's go find you some accommodation first, we'll talk later." the man said and brought Li and Henry to their accommodation.

The place where these Nine Fatale members lived was not too far away. They just happened to see Li running away, so they went out to take a look.

Henry followed Li to the accommodation of the Nine Fatale. They were specially allocated three rooms. Li told the people of Nine Fatale about the whole of Henry's story.

When Li made it clear to everyone, they all looked at Henry differently. It turned out that Li was chased by the Reapers because of this person! Was it because he had offended Radiant Island?

"Li, what you've done really wasn't wise." A member of the Nine Fatale said, "Because this person offended Radiant Island. We're talking about Radiant Island here!"

Li shook her head. "I don't regret my actions. This was we had agreed on from the very beginning. If it weren't for him, we would have already died in the last mission."

The member of Nine Fatale still wanted to say something, but he was stopped by the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man opened his mouth and said, "Alright, now that things have already happened, it's pointless to say anything now. However, there are some things that should end here."

Having said that, he looked at Henry. "Mr. Zhang, I have basically understood the matter here. First of all, I thank you for helping my men. They have also fulfilled their promise. I think from now on, my men should have no more to do with you."

Henry nodded and said, "I understand."

"In that case." The middle-aged man gestured to the door. "Mr. Zhang, you won't be you staying here for the night."

The meaning of the man's words was clear enough.

Henry smiled and reached out his right hand to Li.

"I would like to thank you once again for your help. I apologise for all the trouble I have brought you. If the opportunity ever arises, I can promise you one more request."

"That won't be necessary.", the middle-aged man spoke before Li could say anything, "Mr. Zhang, from now on, we have nothing to do with you. What conflicts you have with Radiant Island has nothing to do with the Nine Fatale, and we really couldn't care less about your so-called request."

"Alright, then." Henry sighed. He really was currently not in any position to promise anything. After all, even he did not know what he should do next.

"Syl, I..." Li tried to say something, but did not know what more to say. Perhaps it was how Henry had protected the child in the truck back then that caused her to feel sad to see such a person walk alone into the darkness of the city.

"Everyone is just trying to survive. I understand. Thank you. Li, if I don't die this time, I'll treat you to a meal." Henry waved to Li and walked out of the accommodation of the Nine Fatale. His figure disappeared into the darkness.

Li stared into the direction of the open door and returned to her senses only until the middle-aged man closed the door.

Henry walking in the dark city, he was the only one on the street.

Henry looked at the direction of the island. That was his destination. Henry believed that that was the only place in the entire world that could keep him safe at the moment.

For Henry in his normal state, it took only a few minutes to reach the entrance of the City of Hell from where he stood. However, now, such a distance was just as far as the gap between life and death for Henry. He knew that along this path, there were countless experts of the Alvin League and Recluse Association lying in wait for him, waiting for him to fall into their trap.

Under the dark sky, Henry felt lost. Now, no one could help him.

Henry leaned against a wall and rubbed at his temples, then muttered, "Sometimes, it really is so difficult to make a decision."

Henry inhaled deeply, then suddenly stood up and murmured again, "However, if some decisions are made, everything will be much easier."

Henry stretched out his hand and looked at his palm. Then, as if he had made a decision, he strode towards the direction of Radiant Island.

"Who are you?!"

Henry, who was walking on the street, was soon discovered by the people who patrolled Steel City. These people were all men of Alvin Tsu.

Henry ignored the question and continued striding towards Radiant Island.

"Stop!" The man shouted again, but when he looked towards the direction of Henry, he saw that the figure who had been walking on the street had suddenly disappeared, and the direction he was headed for was Radiant Island!

The man was stunned for a moment, and then immediately took out his walkie- talkie. "Hurry, someone is trying to barge into the island!"

Very quickly, alarms blared through Steel City.

"Barge into the island?" Knox and Placido were sitting together in a house. When they heard the news, the both of them were shocked, then turned to look at each other. They both saw a fierce look in each other's eyes.

"So he is finally willing to show up?"

"It must have been really hard for a king to live like a rat in the sewer for so many days."

"However, since he's willing to show himself, we can't just watch him, can we? We should give the King of Hell some dignity."

"The night is dark tonight. The wind is strong and there's no moon. It's a perfect night for slaughter." "It's pretty fitting for the king of the City of Hell to die in the darkness."
