Billionaire God of War novel (Jiang Ning) novel Chapter 2402

The man who asked that question fell into silence. He's helping that guy? But we just refused him, did we not? So why does he want to help him?

“I shall be going as well. I owe him a favor and a huge one. It is common courtesy to repay a favor,” another fighter piped up and left the cave.

They knew that it would have been impossible to get their hands on the Longevity Pond's water if it were not for Jiang Ning. If they did not possess the water, the only fate that awaited them was a slow rot to time and eventual death. However, after taking the water, they had prolonged their lives and gained more power in the process.

Even so, they did not want to take part in a futile fight against an overwhelmingly powerful enemy.

“None of us want to die.” Someone sighed. “But living like this isn't really a better way either. We'd just be surviving in an empty shell of our past. This world is no longer the same as we know it. There is no meaning to life if we are to spend it in infinite boredom.”

The man shook his head and laughed before going out of the cave.

The other fighters who refused to help calmed down and thought about the whole situation after hearing the man's speech. Eventually, they thought he had a point.

More and more people came to their final decision, and eventually, half of the fighters decided to lend a hand to Jiang Ning. However, the rest of the fighters were adamant about staying alive, so they refused to take that risk. All they wanted was to live life in peace.

The battle was a dangerously risky one. They could perish in a moment's notice, and their pursuit for immortality would have been for naught.

Since Jiang Ning did not force them into the battle, they saw no need to lend a hand. They bore no responsibility of the battle, nor were they obliged to help.

Of course, Jiang Ning would not force them. After all, it was a dangerous and deadly battle. The fighters only went into a slumber because they wanted to live longer. It was only natural they did not want to take part in it.

Despite that, someone still needed to stand up to protect the world from the evils of Demon King.

Right after Jiang Ning and Peter Pan came out of the cave, they heard sounds of footsteps coming from behind. When they looked around, they saw more than a dozen fighters coming out of the cave.

“We will aid you in your battle.”

“We owe you a favor, and we intend to repay it. We don't really like to owe anyone anything.”

A few of them spoke of their intention to help. They were smart people, and they knew that Jiang Ning could have threatened them if he wanted to. He could also refuse to give the water to them, and killed them in their slumber. Still, they couldn't complain about it.
