Chapter 512
Because freedom meant too much to him.
Even Zhang Tang, he had never knelt to.
He had only knelt to the family elders and the family head.
And this time, without the compulsion of the Gu worm, it was his first time feeling gratitude from the bottom of his heart.
All words were pale.
Not worth a single kneel, worth a thousand gold.
Beneath his knees was dignity.
But more important than dignity was freedom.
And Su Ming had given him freedom.
So he was willing to kneel!
"Elder Qing, you're an old bag of bones, why kneel to me?"
Su Ming's expression was calm as he said.
"I'm helping you for only one very simple reason."
"We have a common enemy."
Fifth-turn powerhouses are very rare, and those willing to be enemies with the Zhang family are even rarer.
The higher the realm, the more they cherish their lives, the more they fear death.
No one dares to be an enemy of such a major force.
So, Su Ming knew deeply how difficult it was to have enough allies to confront the Zhang family.
So he would seize every opportunity to win over powerhouses.
And Meng Qing was undoubtedly an excellent candidate.
In terms of strength, he was undoubtedly strong.
His hatred for the Zhang family was also pure enough.
Meng Qing knelt on the ground, his expression solemn.
He lowered his head and said solemnly.
"I choose to live… to take revenge, to take revenge on the Zhang family!"
"Their deception, I will repay a hundredfold!"
"Slaughter, thank you… for giving me this chance." He wiped away his tears with his sleeve, his expression extremely earnest.
Su Ming nodded.
"It should be so; you helped the Zhang family kill so many people, now you must kill the Zhang family in return to redeem your sins…"
"Otherwise, the number of victims will continue to increase."
"Anyway, you old man won't live many more years; killing one family elder is already a profit," Su Ming said with a faint smile.
Meng Qing, hearing this, also gave a bitter smile.
As if the knots in his heart had dissipated for the most part.
"I want… to sign a unilateral ally contract with you," Meng Qing said solemnly.
"That way, you won't fear my betrayal."
"I have made up my mind to be an enemy of the Zhang family with my life!"
Su Ming helped him up.
"Good," Su Ming replied cleanly.
Su Ming was a cautious person; even if Meng Qing hadn't said it, he would have demanded that Meng Qing sign an ally contract.
Even if he had no hostility toward him for the time being, he couldn't do nothing to protect himself.
An ally contract, unlike the Zhang family's soul Gu worm, is a completely equal contract!
Neither side is higher than the other.
This contract is imposed by world rules, requiring him never to betray the other party and not to do anything that harms the other party's interests.
Once broken, one will receive a great penalty.
Both parties must agree to terminate the contract.
Su Ming raised his hand and gripped, and a phantom screen appeared in mid-air.
The contract characters were profound; Meng Qing's expression was calm as his aged hand wrote his name.
His penalty was extremely severe: death!
Once he betrayed Su Ming, he would instantly perish.
This was a severe penalty he wrote down voluntarily, not one Su Ming demanded.
"I have no reason to betray you, so I won't sign the contract, is that okay?" Su Ming said indifferently.
Meng Qing nodded.
This unilateral ally contract could only ensure he wouldn't betray Su Ming, but couldn't ensure Su Ming wouldn't betray him.
But Meng Qing was willing.
Because at this moment, living one more year was a profit.
"Hmph, you gave this old man freedom, saved my life; now that it's come to this, what else is there for this old man to say!?"
"Even if I die at your hands, I accept it."
Immediately, Meng Qing tapped directly on confirm.
The unilateral contract took effect, and he became Su Ming's true ally.
"Hahahahahaha!!!" Meng Qing let out a laugh filled with heroic spirit.
The previous dispiritedness and sorrow were all swept away.
His state of mind returned to normal.
Only those who have lost their freedom for fifty years know how happy and carefree this is.
After extreme suppression comes extreme emotional release!
"Kill, kill, kill!"
"Kill! The Zhang family members who once bullied me, the Zhang family members who once bullied the innocent!" His eyes flashed with brilliance as he looked up and roared.
Meng Qing drank a bottle of healing potion to heal his severe injuries.
In his eyes, a storm flashed.
"This old man once personally killed so many innocent people; even if it was the Zhang family's order, my sins cannot be exempted," he muttered.
"Perhaps this old man can never redeem his sins and only has the path to the underworld after death."
After releasing his emotions, he looked at the sky and sighed.
"However… do one's best and leave the rest to fate."
He narrowed his eyes and said.
"While I'm alive, doing my best to kill the evil people of the Zhang family is the meaning of my survival," Meng Qing thought clearly.
Su Ming's expression was calm as he said indifferently.
"If you charge into the Zhang family now, it's suicide."
"You might as well hide and cultivate well; when the time is ripe, I will call you."
"It would be best… if you could reach the sixth turn and become a Venerable…" Su Ming said.
Without sixth-turn cultivation, charging into the Zhang family is no different from throwing an egg against a rock.
And if he had a sixth-turn ally, he would be much more relaxed.
Hearing this, a boundless wantonness flashed in Meng Qing's eyes.
"Sixth turn?"
"Hmph, returning to freedom, this old man is not afraid of this challenge."
"This old man's talent was never bad to begin with!"
"However, this old man will cultivate while taking revenge on the Zhang family outside; two-pronged approach, proceeding simultaneously!"
He was extremely confident.
Serving the Zhang family all these years, he had put his realm promotion in second place, which was why his strength hadn't grown much.
And now, the shackles were broken, and he would strive to become stronger with all his might!
As long as there is a dream in the heart, age is not a problem!
Zhang Xiangsheng, Zhang Fengya, Zhang Yunxiao?
