Chapter 308: A deal
Chapter 308: A deal
Despite the patriarch's attempt, Rong Fu wouldn't be scared of something like this, with a smirk he enjoyed the show.
" Who made this string? "
The patriarch asked, walking towards the Little dog who was still coughing out blood on the ground, with a single slap he was seriously wounded.
Still, he pushed himself up and spoke:
" S- Sir, you created it yourself, I- I had asked you to- "
*BOOOOOOM*
Before he finished his words, the patriarch threw one of the beads directly at his face, which easily pierced his fore head and destroyed his brain, before coming out from the other part of his head.
The two guard had removed the chairs from under them by now and they sat on the ground on their knees and looked at the small man with respect and fear.
Rong Fu just chuckled, and then the dwarf stepped back from the corpse, that was looking at the world with pleading eyes, even after his death.
" Guards, come here and throw this garbage outside, also put some offerings in front of the gods, asking forgiveness on his behalf for the crime he committed. "
Baldy said, and then a couple of guards came running in, when they saw the corpse both of them were stunned and expressions of sadness appeared on the faces but they just masked it by a layer of indifference, the boy in front of them was only in his mid twenties, and was a very good friend of the both of them.
Without showing any reaction, they took his body and walked outside, thinking of how to tell his family about his death, some servant immediately came and began to clean the place, removing any traces of the death, and the Life that had just been taken.
Then the bald patriarch harrumphed in indifference and walked back to his seat, he took another string of beads from his spatial ring and began to twirl it in between his fingers, his gaze sending a message to Rong Fu, who seemed unfazed by the entire event.
" Sir, do you mind if we go outside for a walk? "
The first guard asked, his tone meek. Without glancing, Rong Fu waved his hands towards him, gesturing to do as they pleased.
" Thank you, sir, we will be just outside, call us if you need anything, anyway do you want me to su- "
The guard's words were interrupted when his friend pulled him out of the room, just looking at the face of the Baldy Patriarch was suffocating.
" Let's stop with the games, do you have anything else to say? "
Rong Fu asked, his gaze narrowing at the man in front of him who sat on his chair with dignity and righteousness.
" I'm just a small believer of the almighty, what wish could I have, anyway why do you think that I have something to say? "
The patriarch asked, a small smile on his face.
" I had also played such games so many times, so instead of wasting time just tell me straight what you want from me. " Rong Fu asked directly.
The shorty glanced at Xiao Rong for a moment, before his eyes went back to Rong Fu as he spoke:
" I'm a man who had devoted his entire life to serving the gods, and so the gods have always bestowed me with great luck.
Only a few people know of this but when I started, when I was just a kid who knew nothing about this world, I was nothing more than the son of a butcher, my parents both worked hard the entire day just to put food on our table
But as I grew I wasn't satisfied by such a life, I used to watch all those rich and powerful people passing from in front of my house and I knew, that no matter what, I have to become big, something that the world have to bow down to, I pursued power and made many sacrifices along the way, both of my parents had to die so I could reach where I am today, I loved my parents so much that I still have their skulls in my room, they give me strength and motivation.
I can see that you too hold the same thirst for power as me, you are someone who wouldn't stop until you have achieved the best at everything, but are you really satisfied with working under the king? "
The Patriarch paused while asking this question.
" Aren't you afraid that I might tell the king about all this? " Rong Fu said, trying to understand the man in front of him.
" You wouldn't do that, after all you are an ambitious man, someone who could trade his own daughter to get power, so why don't you work with me, we will both be able to rule this entire Kingdom, not the second, not the loyal dog of the king, but the ruler of this Kingdom and rule over every meaningless life present in it. "
The Baldy said, his eyes glowing with a never ending determination. Rong Fu was surprised by his words, for a few seconds he pondered his choices, and then he asked:
" And what do you want me to do? "
The shorty smiled, seeing that Rong Fu was interested in his offer, showing a wide grin he spoke:
" Don't worry I have everything planned you just have to stay in the good graces of the king for the time being, while I complete my research, and then we will be able to overthrow the king and take everything he has. But there is one more thing... "
The Short Patriarch said, throwing the suspense back at Rong Fu who looked at him curiously and asked:
" Tell me, what is it? "
Tilting his head slightly, and taking the bead string into the other hand, the Patriarch spoke:
" But don't you think that before we become companions, we need to have enough trust in each other? "

Hearing these words, Rong Fu had an expression of understanding as he asked:
" That certainly is the case, since you are just like me, then I believe that you would not hesitate to betray me when given the chance, right? So, tell me what do you suggest we should do to build this 'trust' in between us? "
Rong Fu asked, showing a similar smile as the shorty.
" I'll give you all my sect's secret techniques, and many other secrets, I think that would be enough for you to believe in me, right? "
The patriarch said, pointing at his storage ring.
" Hmmm, yeah that surely is enough since those things are the foundation of you and the Buddhist sect, if they got public then there would no longer be a Buddhist sect, fine I'll believe in you and what do you want me to give you so that you can believe me? "
Rong Fu asked, his gaze fixed on the middle aged man in front of him.
" Haha, I want your daughter, Xiao Rong, now don't misunderstand me, I think God would be happy if some one as pretty and dedicated as her, worships and follows god, so I want her to join the Buddhist sect and become my personal disciple. "
