The plan got canceled, the whole operation fell apart, and Hong Tao was feeling absolutely miserable.
The three-hundred-pound Contractor waddled over, noticed his sour expression, and asked what was up.
Hong Tao spilled everything and said, "We'll let him go this time, and look for another chance later."
"Later?" The three-hundred-pound Contractor's face darkened, "Hong Tao, you useless piece of shit, you can't even kill a low-level punk without dragging your ass—you're seriously getting worse and worse."
Hong Tao pondered, "I'll go see Venerable Kunpeng myself and buy some Life and Destruction Materials. Xiao Ye's got ties to two Venerable-level powerhouses, I can't take this lightly."
Buying Life and Destruction Materials, he had already braced himself for bleeding money.
The Contractor's face finally eased up a bit, "Hmph, whatever, do what you want."
Phew! Hong Tao let out a breath of relief.
