Chapter 170: Chapter170-Cooperation? With a Bunch of Monkeys?

"How am I supposed to know you won't stab me in the back?" Treemonkey King's raspy voice rose again.

John sighed with feigned resignation.

"If I say I won't betray you, you wouldn't believe me anyway. But right now, all it would take is one loud call to the overseers watching this area, and they'd surely have us pull out ahead of time."

"What they'll do to you then, I have no idea.

I'm just here to win, and as long as you help me, I of course won't spill the beans," John said, smiling slyly, but Treemonkey King just snorted coldly.

"Humans are truly shameless!"

Instead of getting angry, John chuckled lightly.

"Thanks for the compliment; I also think I'm quite shameless."

Was this what you call cooperation? This was practically unilateral blackmail!

And the kind that Treemonkey King couldn't possibly refuse!
