Chapter 596: Unmatched Nether Flame.
When Money Body heard what Loki said, he shook his head and said, “We will do things differently this time around. You will go together with Ant Hill here to fight one of the dragons. With her help, you should be able to hold off the dragon, right?”
Loki had no faith in her power, but since all they needed to do was hold a dragon for a while, he nodded and said, “I think that could work.”
But Ant Hill frowned and asked, saying, “Must I go? Two of us fighting a dragon seems like a waste of manpower? Also, what’s going to stop the dragons from coming to the rescue of the one we gang up on?”
Loki didn’t like her first two questions. But he wholeheartedly agreed with the third one.
In fact, he also asked a question, saying, “What are we even holding the dragon back for? And what’s going to hold back the other dragons?”
Money Body first sighed. Then he murmured, saying, “Why did I even bother coming here? I could have just stayed home in peace instead of trying to herd these people like cattle.”
He meant to say that to himself, but it seemed he accidentally sent the message to the three of them, so they all heard what he said.
From what he heard, Loki was able to glean that Money Body was frustrated. But he didn’t care about this.
He wasn’t going to let up on his concerns just because Money Body was frustrated. After all, it is his life that is at stake here. So he continued to frown.
After sighing, Money Body said, “You guys don’t see what I am seeing right now. So you don’t know why I decided to use this plan. So let me start by explaining what I am seeing.”
In order to help them visualize what he was about to explain, he bent down and began drawing on the ground of the island.
The first thing that he drew was a small circle. Then he pointed at the circle and said, “That’s us right now.”
Then he drew three squiggly lines around in the small circle in positions that made them form an equilateral triangle with the small circle at the center of this imaginary triangle.
After drawing the three squiggly lines, he said, “These are three dragons. One of them is rank 7. The other two are rank 6.”
“It is clear that these three are here for you three. They’ve even put an equal amount of distance between each other so that we won’t think they want to gang up on us. So it is clear that they want you three to come out and pick a dragon to fight.”
After saying this, he drew three lines connecting the small circle to the three squiggly lines. On one side, one line went from the small circle to one of the squiggly lines. On the other side, two lines went from the small circle to one squiggly line. This left one squiggly line unattended and without a line connecting it to the center.
Then he explained, saying, “They want us to fight them one-on-one. But we won’t do that.”
“They can suggest a one-on-one fight because they are confident of victory. But I am not confident of victory. So I will send two of you to fight one of them. Meanwhile, Nether Flame will go and fight the only rank 7 among them.”
After he said this, he pointed at Nether Flame and said, “I am confident in Nether Flame’s power. Aside from the dragon king, I’m sure that he can kill any dragon.”
“It wouldn’t even matter if they came at him together. He will kill them all. Nether Flame is simply unmatched among rank 7 cultivators.”
Loki nodded in agreement when he heard this. He also took another look at Nether Flame’s attributes just to make sure that nothing had changed.

Meanwhile, Money Body was still speaking.
The rank 8 money cultivator said, “It will be easy for Nether Flame to kill that rank 7 dragon. Once the fight begins and it is clear that the rank 7 dragon is going to die, the dragon that we didn’t assign anyone to would rush over to help the rank 7 dragon.”
“The other dragons that are hiding themselves will also come out and rush towards Nether Flame. His job will be to kill as many of them as come.”
Then he pointed at Loki and Ant Hill as he said, “Your job is to hold off the single rank 6 dragon. With Nether Flame being so dangerous, the dragons will prioritize killing him, so you have nothing to worry about.”
“And if the dragons refuse to come out of hiding to fight Nether Flame because he is too strong, your job will be to hold down the rank 6 dragon and prevent it from escaping. That way, Nether Flame can come and kill it.”
Next, he pointed at himself and said, “My job is to stay here at the island and intimidate the dragon king into not moving. I will also watch over the whole situation and give you all updates about the general situation.”
“By the time the dragon king realizes something is wrong. At least one dragon will be dead, and two more won’t be far off. By that time, it will already be too late for the dragon king. I will then come out to kill the dragon king.”
Then he said, “That is all. Any questions?”
Loki didn’t have any questions. But he thought that Nether Flame might have some questions about the plan. After all, the success of this plan would heavily rely on Nether Flame.
