Chapter 498 A Question

At dusk, the abandoned manor outside the Zenith City was shrouded in a pale red afterglow that made it seem a bit desolate and miserable.

Right in front of the isolated tomb were two standing figures.

"I'm really sorry that I failed to complete the task. I am willing to accept any punishment you deem necessary," apologized one of them who was thin and had a sharp face and fine eyebrows.

He was Goliath who recently lost to Zachary in the King Level contest. The one he was talking to was none other than Logan.

"Your punishment is inevitable. However, you might have failed to complete the designated task but you are still useful. I made a plea with our leader to let you make amends for your mistakes," Logan said as he narrowed his eyes.

"Make amends for my mistakes?" Hearing that, Goliath was surprised. He was still trembling in fear.

"Although you have been defeated by Harley and failed to complete your task, it was understandable. After all, even I didn't expect him to have such strength. And just because of my carelessness, he was able to ruin our plan. It was also my responsibility to make sure everything went as planned. Although you failed to do your job, you still did great in the strength contest and it made a lot of clans and sects think highly of you. As for whether the Xiao Clan is interested in you or not, we are unable to tell right now so you would have to try your best to gain more opportunities," Logan continued in a frigid voice.

"What opportunities?" Goliath asked. He was confused.

"Get close to Harley and befriend him. If he joins the Xiao Clan, maybe he can introduce you to them in the future," Logan answered.

"What makes you say that he will join the Xiao Clan?" Goliath asked in confusion. He knew that the Qiu Clan and the Xiao Clan had the highest chances of acquiring Zachary. The Xiao Clan had another rival, the Phoenix Pavilion so it was really hard to predict which clan he would choose.

"You don't need to worry about that. You should just focus on doing your part,"

e direction of the strange aura. Soon, he saw a few sculptures in a building similar to an ancestral hall, all in different positions. He could tell that the prototypes of those sculptures were some of the famous figures from the Shura College. The people greatly admired them so the Shura College ordered to carve their sculptures for the disciples of the college and the world to see.

"Come out." Zachary stood in the hall with his hands clasped behind his back.

As soon as he stopped, a figure in black came out from behind one of the sculptures. He stared at Zachary with his sharp eyes. His indescribable aura, coupled with his gloomy look, could make people tremble in fear.

"Long time no see!" Zachary was not surprised to see Logan because he already expected him to come to him and he already knew why.

"It seems that you are not surprised to see me at all. Were you waiting for me?" asked Logan as he stared at Zachary's calm face.

"Yes. But does it matter?" Zachary laughed.

"If you know why I'm here, I'm expecting that you have prepared for it and I won't talk any more nonsense," Logan said.

"I don't like talking nonsense either, but before that, I want you to answer my one question," Zachary asked calmly.

"A question? What is it?" Logan asked as he narrowed his eyes.

"Well... are you Logan Leng?" Zachary asked bluntly.
