I Became the Demon King of Lust

Tie Gang just said with a faint smile, "Weren\'t you saying that you were stronger than him?"

Johnny knitted his brows when he heard this and I couldn\'t help thinking, "Why are you provoking him?"

Finally, Johnny gave a snort before saying, "Then don\'t blame me for not holding back."

Tie Gang gave a nod, but he still said, "No killing though. This will be a friendly spar to settle your differences." His eyes turned sharp as he said, "Do you understand?"

Johnny gave a nod to show that he did.

He wasn\'t a fool, he could guess what Tie Gang was thinking.

But this was a chance for him since it would allow him to demonstrate his superiority over this F Ranked kid.

He didn\'t actually have any ill intentions towards Tie Gang since he respected Tie Gang as an A Ranker. He just couldn\'t stand that this kid was able to get so close to him even though he was a F Ranker.

If he could show his power and catch Tie Gang\'s eye at the same time, then that would be the best situation for him.

So he would crush this kid.

During all of this, I couldn\'t help shaking my head with a bitter smile on my face.

This was the worst case scenario for me.

It seemed that whenever I associated with Tie Gang, things would always turn out poorly for me since he did all these things that I could never expect…

But it wasn\'t as if I could back down now.

He had declared this in front of everyone, so I had to take this fight or else my reputation would take a large hit.

The only thing that I could do now was make a solemn vow that I would try to avoid Tie Gang as much as possible in the future.

Tie Gang turned back to me and asked, "Are you fine with the fight?"

I just gave a simple nod without saying anything.

When Johnny saw me acting calm and collected like this, he couldn\'t help revealing a hostile look as he glared at me. It was as if he thought that I was disrespecting him by acting this way.

I just shook my head again when I saw this since I knew that there was no way of reasoning with someone like this.

After this was decided, no one wasted any time as they prepared a ring for us to fight in.

This was a ring that was set up in the center of the camp, so that everyone could watch the fight.

While the ring was being prepared, my group came over to talk to me.

"You got this!" That was what Blaze and Kaito said as soon as they came over.

They seemed like they were excited to watch me fight even though I clearly didn\'t want to.

Judging by the looks on the faces of the others, it seemed like they were all expecting me to teach Johnny a lesson.

These kids really didn\'t know how to hide their emotions at all…

The only ones that had worried looks were Claire and Qin Yue Ru.

Though one of them clearly had a more worried look than the other.

I just raised my hand to calm them down and said, "I\'ll be fine. This is just a spar, so it isn\'t as if he will be out to kill. Even if he was, there will be others watching, so they will stop him if it goes too far."

Qin Yue Ru gave a nod, but Claire didn\'t react.

She looked right at me and said, "Why did you sneak off with…her?"

When she said \'her\', she turned to look at Long Shui Ling standing beside me. The look in her eyes made the hostility that she was feeling clear, but Long Shui Ling didn\'t back down.

I revealed a bitter smile before saying, "It was the leader that called us out. You were there when he called us out to talk, that was what he wanted to talk to us about. It wasn\'t as if we had a choice, right?"

There was a tense silence that hung in the air as she didn\'t say a thing.

The others were all looking at me like I was a dense idiot, but I completely ignored them.

The minute that I addressed this, the illusion that had been created would be shattered.

Finally, the others on the side couldn\'t take it anymore and said, "That\'s right, boss! You should have at least given us some kind of heads up so we weren\'t completely caught off guard."

"It\'s your fault for leaving us in the dark like that."

I was about to say something in response to this, but before I could, Claire suddenly took a step forward.

No one was able to react to what she was doing, so no one was able to stop her.

She suddenly came forward in front of me and then stood up on her tiptoes to reach my face before placing a kiss on my cheek.

When she pulled away, she had a blush on her face as she said, "That was for good luck."

Without even giving me a chance to say anything, she turned and walked off.

There was a silence that hung in the air as no one was able to react to this.

But then there were many sly looks that were cast in my direction.

However, the only emotion that I could feel was bitterness at her suddenly making her move like this.

After all, I could feel the chill and pressure coming from beside me.

There was someone that was very upset about this and when she was upset, that meant that her family would be upset.

Her family was not something that I could deal with right now…

So I decided to ignore it all as I went to face Johnny.

It was definitely running away, but I was running away with determination.
