Chapter 385: Our Gap Is Huge

"Our gap is huge? Hah, yes—someone as outstanding as Inagawa Ryūsen ended up in prison because of you. What right do I have to be mentioned in the same breath as you?" Inagawa Xinghai lay on the ground, coughing painfully; each cough sounded like he was spitting blood: "Too bad, Inagawa Ryūsen is already dead. Now, Inagawa Ryūwa is gone, and the entire Inagawa family is left with only me and Xingye."

"Hahahaha!"

Inagawa Xinghai threw his head back and laughed loudly, yet his pale face stirred an instinctive sense of pity.

"No matter what, Inagawa Ryūsen was your father. Even if you hated him down to your bones, you can't change that fact—and besides…" Kuchiki Senya crouched down, looking at Inagawa Xinghai with a calm tone: "I originally intended to cultivate you as I did Inagawa Ryūsen. But since you refuse my goodwill, don't blame me for being ruthless. Do you know? Back then, Inagawa Ryūsen seemed like an ant to me. Now, the son of an ant dares to defy me—how bold do you think you are?"

"I don't need your approval, and I don't crave your cultivation. I'll carve out my own bright future with my own hands!" Inagawa Xinghai gritted his teeth, his eyes sharp with cruelty and resolve: "I will take revenge!"

Saying this, Inagawa Xinghai struggled to his feet and staggered toward the door!

"Wait!"

At that moment, Kuchiki Senya called out to stop him.

Inagawa Xinghai turned his head and asked: "Are you changing your mind again?"

"No, no—I mean, your brother's safety is vital, so I'll send several experts to escort you and your brother back to the East Ocean. Don't worry: as long as you cooperate obediently, I won't touch Xingye. In fact, later on, I might even help you ascend to the head of the family."

These words made Inagawa Xinghai pause slightly.

"Why are you helping me?" Inagawa Xinghai frowned. "I can't fathom what you're after. (bccb)"

"Because… your life is mine to give, and your brother is alive because I saved him," Kuchiki Senya said. "If you wish to repay this debt, I offer you the chance."

Inagawa Xinghai took a deep breath, then said: "Very well. Let's depart now—faster is better."

At this moment, in the depths of despair, they chose to surrender to darkness.

Inagawa Xinghai knew he had no other choice.
