Lu Hong was also a bit nervous. The consul was unlikely to hand him over, but Saron's aggressiveness caught them off guard. If Saron tried to seize him by force, the consul would not be able to stop him!
Lu Hong subtly retreated a few steps toward the consul, increasing the distance between himself and Saron.
Saron's crimson eyes turned to Lu Hong, "Kid, even if you hide in the embrace of the council greys, I can still fish you out."
Uh...
Alright then, since Saron had already put it that way, hiding wouldn't help Lu Hong now. It would be better to face the impending outcome bravely.
The council greys pondered for a long time, finally speaking up, "I cannot hand him over to you."
"Heh heh." Saron let out a cold laugh, "Don't think I don't know what you're plotting. Kid, do you know that the council greys invited you to the Netherworld just to send you to Hades Palace to die?"
