Chapter 145

As soon as the bald male finished speaking, he saw his companion stiffen and collapse.

In an instant, the bald male felt as if his throat had been squeezed shut. He thought, ‘Pale Wolf? He’s not dead?‘

The bald male didn’t have any chance to escape, as a terrifying figure descended like a nightmare, kicking him to the ground.

The bald male begged for mercy, “No, please! Don’t kill me. I was just following orders!”

Pale Wolf remained unmoved, his expression icy. “All of you… will die.”

After begging for a while and receiving a brutal beating, the bald male realized Pale Wolf wasn’t going to spare him. In desperation, he sneered, “With those trash weapons of yours, you think you can take over the inner city? Dream on!”

Not only did the bald male find this ridiculous, but Nyx also thought it was unrealistic.

Nyx was deeply worried about Pale Wolf.

The basement’s soundproofing was too good, so Nyx couldn’t hear anything happening outside. Her mind raced with anxious thoughts.

She thought, ‘What if Pale Wolf gets hurt? What if he is captured by those thugs?‘

From noon until evening, even as a sandstorm rolled in, Pale Wolf still hadn’t returned.

Nyx couldn’t sleep at all, pacing anxiously in the basement.

Finally, the next morning, as the sandstorm subsided, Pale Wolf returned, covered in dust.

He grinned at Nyx, “I’ll take you… to the inner city.”

Thanks to the weapons Kian had provided, Pale Wolf had completely crushed the inner city. It was now his territory.

Seeing Pale Wolf’s goofy smile, Nyx let out a long sigh of relief, her tense nerves finally relaxing.

She checked Pale Wolf from head to toe, making sure he wasn’t seriously injured, before fully calming down.

“How’s Jorge?” Nyx asked with concern.

“He’s… fine,” Pale Wolf replied, shaking his head.
