I Will Teach You How to Hunt Gods-Chapter 528 - 129: Shadow Cabinet

"They are too powerful, so powerful that appearing in front of civilians is inappropriate, hence they hide in the shadows, forming the Shadow Cabinet, silently controlling the Nest City Council."

Deng patiently explained, "And this person surnamed 'Zhao' is one of them."

"His strength might exceed your imagination."

Yun You fell into contemplation.

She originally thought that the leader, no matter how strong, wouldn't be strong enough to far surpass the second in command, Shen Ye.

But now it seems, things might be beyond her original expectations.

She remembered that her third senior sister, Tang Jin, was already a Tier Four Apprentice Death God, yet could only be a senior council member in the Nest City Council.

The leader, as a member of the Shadow Cabinet, is obviously stronger than Tang Jin.

And the most critical point is, attacking a member of the Shadow Council is tantamount to being enemies with the entire Nest City Council.

When that time comes, Yun You will have to deal with more than just one Apprentice Death God.

She will face an invisible colossus, a colossus that possesses armies, warships, countless large-scale weapons, and a substantial number of mercenaries and Apprentice Death Gods.

This is definitely more difficult to deal with than simple powerhouses.

But so what? Just because something is difficult, do you not do it? That's never been Yun You's style.

Either find a way to eliminate the enemy or burn to ashes in the process of revenge.

Yun You will not choose a third path.

But now... since the identity of the opponent is known, the matter of revenge needs careful planning.

Blindly sending oneself to death is meaningless.

Seeing Yun You deep in thought, Deng did not disturb her, just quietly waited by her side, taking small sips of the sweet cola.

"Crash—!"

Suddenly, a row of shelves not far away slowly parted, revealing a deep, narrow passage.

Subsequently, a middle-aged man in a shabby suit stumbled out from within, clutching the shelf, gasping for breath, even accidentally knocking several books to the ground.

His complexion was ashen; his face was somewhat swollen, clearly suffering from hunger for a long time, causing physical ailments.

However, upon seeing Yun You and Deng, he brightened up, showing a hint of joy, and staggered towards them.

"Miss... can you give me a cup of water? A drink would do!"

"I don't know what happened; suddenly I was sent into this library, trapped for over half a month..."

"Please do me a favor! Have pity on me..."

Seeing this, Deng slightly frowned, especially when looking at the books he accidentally knocked to the ground, her expression turned sour.

But she eventually handed over a cup of cola.

The man was overjoyed, didn't even bother thanking her, embracing the cola, he began to guzzle it, finishing the sweet syrupy drink in the blink of an eye.

"Are you also trapped in this godforsaken place? Ah, truly unlucky."

The man wiped his mouth corners, and a trace of color returned to his face.

"That poker game of mine... I was about to win, but this cursed place forcibly sucked me in, now, those thugs will surely renege on their debts!"

"It would be great to go back... preferably bring some books along, selling them to those archaeologists, they would offer high prices, these ancient texts are rarely seen..."

He turned back, looking at the endless bookshelves, his eyes flashing unhidden greed.

Hearing this, Deng suddenly brightened up, took a closer look at the man, then cleared her throat, and slowly began...

"Would you like to make a deal with me?"

"I can send you out, likewise... I can help you, gain wealth."

"The conditions might be quite simple~"
