"Lend a helping hand!"
Are they serious?
This is actually quite hilarious!
Chen Xiao wore a look of utter astonishment, nearly bursting into laughter. He couldn't think of a single reason why he would need anyone's help. Were these two old geezers out of their minds?
"Are you serious?" Chen Xiao asked with a smirk.
Wang Furong nodded. "Yes! We are not joking."
Chen Xiao couldn't help but sneer.
Wang Furong continued, "The Elder Council is currently divided in their opinions, but there are only two ways they will deal with you. First, kill you. Second, let you live! We have both the capability and the willingness to persuade the Elder Council to drop the matter and spare your life."
As he spoke, he sat up straighter, looking rather pleased with himself. "Right now, you are locked in a direct confrontation with Lang Dehai. To him, you are a thorn in his side, a festering splinter he would give anything to remove. We can provide you with secret assistance to help you take down Lang Dehai."
