Female Novel
Chapter 1020 How Can A Great Man of An Indomitable Spirit Be Humiliated by Such Ridicule?
The thundering roar of the beast resounded inside the castle.
Under everyone’s attention, Jack’s expression was serious as he stepped into the cage.
Bang!
The huge metal door was closed.
“Jack…”
A crying voice suddenly came from his back.
Jack slowly turned around and he saw Amanda’s pink face as she forced herself to suppress her
sorrow under the bright light.
He smiled gently.
It was right after that.
Amanda shouted slowly, “Sir…you must get out alive!”
Jack nodded and then he gradually turned around.
His actions were slow under the spotlight. As he turned around, the gentle smile on his face
disappeared but it was replaced by endless gloom and grimness.
Subconsciously, he put his right hand on his belt at his waist as Cynthia had just quietly handed a
dagger to him.
At this moment…the only thing he could rely on was this dagger!
“Get out of there? What a joke!”
The Hun King stared at Jack’s back sternly after hearing Amanda’s words, “If you can defeat the Snow
Lion alone, then I will have not lost so many beloved generals in the past!”novelbin
The Hun King murmured and only a few guards around him could hear it.
It was in the next second.
The Hun King flashed his eyes and shouted, “Greedy Wolf, I make another promise to you. If you can
get out alive, I will not only forgive you and promote you to be the Hun General, but also erect a
monument for you in the city to be worshipped by the future generation as the honour of the Hun!”
“Father, that is enough!”
Cynthia yelled as her pretty face was overwhelmed with seriousness.
The Hun King was indeed making a promise.
However, everybody was clear that it would be certain death in facing the Snow Lion alone!
Moreover, Jack did not have a spear or a horse in the cage. The only thing that could serve as a
weapon was the dagger which she had just quietly handed to him!
She knew the details about her father’s capture of the Snow Lion. So, she was clear that the dagger
would only cause little effect as well as making no difference!
In order to capture it alive, they were unable to fire it with bullets. The common bullets could not cause
much damage to the Snow Lion. Eventually, the Snow Lion was captured successfully by sacrificing
human lives to make it exhausted!
It could indeed demonstrate his courage and win people’s support by making a promise to the survivor.
However, making such a promise to the dead was a naked and sarcastic humiliation!
Jack was the man whom she had been admiring every day and wanted to marry!
He was chosen by her from among all the others to be “the sharpest weapon to attack southward”.
Due to this change and because the Hun King was her father, she was already finding room for
manoeuvre for both parties. However, she really did not expect Jack to draw the Snow Lion directly
from the fate sticks.
When the guard shouted out the words “Snow Lion”, Cynthia already felt dazed and gloomy as if the
sky was spinning and darkness was descending.
But there was nothing she could do to stop it. Everything was up to fate.
She even had been mentally prepared for Jack’s death.
However, she would not allow her father to still humiliate and mock Jack at this moment.
A man’s dignity should be upheld even if he was dead!
The Hun King’s face immediately turned gloomy after hearing Cynthia’s rebuke.
He was the Hun King above all the others and it was a bit embarrassing to be reprimanded by his own
daughter in the public.
But…Cynthia was his daughter.
This made him helpless!
It was also at this moment.
Jack who had already turned around in the cage suddenly sneered.
“The Hun King, this is what you have promised. A ruler has to be responsible for his order. If I can
really get out of the cage alive today, I still hope that you won’t…break your promise!”
The words were resounding. He was very confident instead of being angry at the humiliation by the
Hun King.
This confident level was looking down on the Hun King invisibly.
It was a shocking remark.
Everybody in the scene was startled.
Even the Hun King’s pupils constricted as he could only see Jack’s serious and confident face.
It was after Jack had said these words.
Cynthia who was agitated and worried was abruptly stunned.
These words were like a fist smashing into her heart and caused her heart to pound.
She could not even describe this very special feeling.
“Being in certain death, yet he can still withstand the humiliation and look down on everything. How
strong…is his heart?”
Cynthia speculated in her mind. If it were anyone else, they would be unable to remain calm under
such humiliation in this situation.
But now, Jack turned around confidently in the cage.
“Heh…”
After a short silence, the Hun King sneered, “I will be trustworthy for my promise. If you can get out
alive, all my previous promises will count, provided that…you can get out alive!”
The thundering laughter echoed as the Hun King slowly raised his right hand.
He put down his right hand once he finished speaking.
“Release the beast!”
Boom…
The beast slaves who had been ready immediately opened the gate that was shutting the Snow Lion.
The sliding chains sounded as the huge metal door was opening slowly.
At this moment, the sound echoed throughout the whole scene.
Everybody looked solemn and some of them even took a step backward subconsciously while
clenching their fists tightly.
“Roar…”
Jack withdrew the sneer on his face and exhaled a deep breath while turning around slowly.
His expression was stern and his gaze was sharp.
He paid all his attention to the sound in the darkness at this moment.
All the noise around him gradually faded away. The only sound that he could hear was the sound of the
huge metal door and the sliding chains.
Jack silently reached into his belt with his right hand and he gripped the dagger firmly. His palm was
even sweating faintly.
Just as he was waiting, his face was already full of sweat.
He was actually not confident!
However, he knew that what the Hun King had just said was to humiliate him deliberately.
At the moment of being humiliated, he suddenly somehow gained weird confidence. That was why he
turned around and responded to the Hun King.
A voice seemed to come across his mind, “Even if you die, you must die standing upright! How can a
great man of an indomitable spirit be humiliated by such ridicule?”
“Ow!”
Jack gazed at the place where the lion suddenly made a thundering roar in the darkness.
Boom!
In the darkness, the Snow Lion headed directly towards Jack with a smelly gust of wind.
The wind blew on Jack’s clothes. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes while staring at that dark spot
with all his eyesight.
The lion’s roar was thundering and everybody was astounded.
It was when the roar and the smelly gust of wind appeared.
The Hun King could not help but step backward in fear outside the cage. His heart was pounding
rapidly and his organs were reeling.
The spot where the beasts were roaring became abruptly silent as soon as the lion’s roar.
Being the king of all beasts, its might was completely portrayed!
Bang…bang…
The ground began to quake and the thundering roar resounded almost simultaneously.
Jack’s heart plummeted as he got goosebumps at this moment.
An unprecedented sense of danger overwhelmed his entire body. He was like falling into an ice hole as
he felt cold all over his body.
In his sight, a huge creature was gradually becoming more obvious from the dark spot…
