He then pointed at the Boulder Formation as he continued, “This formation is set up specifically to take down Greedy Wolf and Demon King. I'll have Jiang Yao act as bait to lure Greedy Wolf into showing himself. This is our one and only chance.”
Brother Gou and the others were utterly shocked when they heard that.
“What did you say, Big Boss? You're going to use Yaoyao as bait? That's too dangerous! Let me do it instead!” Brother Gou protested anxiously.
“No, I should be the one to do it! You can't let Yaoyao do this, Big Boss!” Lao Wu yelled with his eyes all red.
They assumed they would be the ones to bait Greedy Wolf, so they were completely taken aback when they found out Jiang Ning had chosen Jiang Yao for the task.
Jiang Ning tried his best to play it casually as he said, “I've made up my mind on this. Besides, this is our only option. Greedy Wolf won't show up if I used you guys as bait anyway. Once he shows up, we'll gang up on him and kill him on the spot. If this doesn't work, then we're all going to die.”
Despite how simple he made things sound, Brother Gou and the others could feel the tension in the air.
They knew Jiang Ning wouldn't have resorted to using his daughter as bait if the situation allowed it.
After all, Jiang Yao was his most precious daughter. On top of that, she was also Peter Pan's disciple and their favorite niece.
“Did you tell Boss Yuzhen about this?” Brother Gou asked in a trembling voice after hesitating for a bit.
Jiang Ning shook his head.
There's no way I could ever tell Lin Yuzhen about this! She would never agree to it!
He took a deep breath and said, “I'll protect Jiang Yao with my life, so she'll be all right. I won't let anything happen to her.”
“We'll protect her with our lives too!” Brother Gou and the others shouted in unison.
They finally understood what Jiang Ning was putting at stake. He was the kind of person who would sacrifice his life without any hesitation if that was all it took, so using Jiang Yao as bait was definitely the
most difficult decision he had ever made.
As such, mistakes and failure were not an option at all.
