Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2682

"Argh!"

Overwhelmed with grief, Edmund coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground. Wilbur, who had been holding on, also could not resist any longer. He spat out blood too and slumped to the ground.

The howl of night wind filled the air as the Vermillion Bird Mountains returned to silence. Wilbur and Edmund, one slumped on the ground resting, the other lying prone, had both exhausted their energy.

It was hard to believe that their battle had come to a draw.

"It looks like I made a mistake. I shouldn't have pried into your past. I can't believe I still couldn't defeat you even after exhausting all of my clone's energy," said Edmund.

Wilbur suddenly remembered something when he heard that. He turned to look at Edmund and said, "Oh, right. You have another clone. If you tell that clone to come over, perhaps you can kill me."

"Hahaha!" laughed Edmund abruptly.

He said, "There's no need. My clone and I share the same devoured energy, and now that it's exhausted, both my clone and I have become very weak. I can't possibly kill you now."

Wilbur looked at Edmund and said, "I can't kill you either."

Edmund was silent for a moment. He said, "Let me ask you this, Wilbur. Do you wish to cultivate in the upper dimension and become a powerful cultivator?"

"I think you're the one in real danger, Lord Edmund. You're the lord of this town, so all eyes are on you. Meanwhile, I'm only an ordinary cultivator. The cultivators in Buck Town only know that Felix Horne is the new head of the Chris family, but no one knows who I am. You want me to work with you so I can help you in the future, and I can ensure you won't die for now. Am I right?"

Edmund struggled to support himself, he barely stood up and clenched his jaw. He said, "You've seen right through me. This is humiliating. I'll be leaving first since you won't agree to it."

Wilbur watched Edmund leave and he called out, "Wait!"

Edmund paused and asked, "What is it?"
