He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 189 Killing Dumbledore? (Second Update)

"Is Grindelwald there?"

Li Chuan put away his wand and asked a witch standing next to him.

The witch quickly stepped forward:

"Li, Lord Grindelwald has gone out and will probably be back later."

Li Chuan nodded, found a sofa to sit down, and then chatted with several black wizards.

The villa where he is now located is one of Grindelwald's main strongholds, hidden among Muggles to evade the International Confederation of Wizards' warrants.

As for the original owner of this villa, he already knew from his previous conversation with several dark wizards that he had been cruelly killed on Grindelwald's orders, from the elderly to infants, all killed with the Killing Curse, leaving no one alive.

In Grindelwald's eyes, Muggles are filthy and lowly creatures, not even as good as house-elves, and he only needs to keep a small portion of them as slaves to drive in the future.

Two hours later, Grindelwald, with his white hair, and a dozen or so dark wizards appeared in the villa. When they saw Li Chuan, they were not surprised and simply waved for everyone to gather together.

"The preliminary preparations have been almost completed, and now wizards all over the world know that I am here."

"Wait another month, until all the wizards who believe in me have gathered in Paris, then we will hold our assembly to begin our war against those corrupt wizards and those Muggles by destroying this Muggle city!"

Grindelwald glanced at the dark wizards present, his tone revealing both excitement and a hint of sinister intent.

The dark wizards below cheered immediately upon hearing this; the moment they had been waiting for was finally almost here.

Grindelwald raised his hand to silence the cheers, then continued:

"Before that, I need someone to kill Albus Dumbledore in my place, the one most likely to stop my plans. I wonder if any of you are willing?"

The idea of ​​hiring someone to kill Dumbledore was obviously not true; he knew that no one but himself could kill Dumbledore.

Because of his blood oath, he himself could not attack Dumbledore.

Or more precisely, it's because although the two parted ways back then, they still couldn't let go of that relationship in their hearts, and the existence of the blood alliance did indeed restrict the two from attacking each other.

But more than anything, it represents that the feelings between the two people deep down have not broken down, and they are not yet willing to fight each other to the death.

Therefore, he needed someone with considerable strength to harass Dumbledore and prevent him from making any underhanded moves during important moments like the gathering.

The person he originally saw through prophecy was an Obscurial in New York, possibly related to the Dumbledore family by blood, but then he disappeared.

An Obscurial with Dumbledore's bloodline, and a little girl—how similar this is to Dumbledore's sister Ariana. Though she can't defeat Dumbledore, she can still touch his heart, causing him to panic and preventing him from thinking about this side of the story.

Upon hearing that they were going to kill Dumbledore, the faces of the dark wizards present immediately froze.

Even though many of these dark wizards were Grindelwald's most loyal subordinates, they were willing to give their lives for Grindelwald and his lofty ideals.

However, they were well aware that they were no match for the renowned Dumbledore, and assassinating him was practically the only possible outcome.

Grindelwald glanced around, finally fixing his gaze on Li Chuan.

He knew perfectly well that while his men were top-notch wizards, with some reputation in the wizarding world, they were still far from being able to deal with Dumbledore.

They basically can't even harass anyone; they'd probably be killed in a single encounter.

The only one who could truly be of any use is probably Li Chuan, this mysterious man who possesses unique, self-created magic.

However, Li Chuan was different from these saints. They were collaborators and traders. Their ideas were similar to his but not entirely the same. He could not force them to fight the powerful Dumbledore by order.

Li Chuan only had to think for a moment before he took a step forward without hesitation.

"Leave it to me. I've long wanted to spar with Professor Dumbledore, who is famous in the wizarding world."

He was initially startled when he heard that Grindelwald was going to kill Dumbledore, but he quickly figured out the ins and outs.

His first thought was that he couldn't do it. He wasn't confident he could defeat Dumbledore, and besides, he knew that his status required him to learn magic from Dumbledore.

But then I thought about it again, and it seemed like I could do it.

Anyway, Grindelwald didn't really want to kill Dumbledore, so he just needed to go through the motions.

Even if he can't win, just achieving a near-victory would make him famous in Grindelwald, in the Sorcerer Party, and throughout the entire wizarding world.

Although he is quite famous now, he is still not comparable to Grindelwald and Dumbledore.

The key point is that since Grindelwald wants him to kill Dumbledore, he can offer to teach Grindelwald his most powerful and secret magic.

In addition, it's good to let Dumbledore feel some pressure. When Dumbledore discovers that Grindelwald actually has a master like Li Chuan under his command, he will definitely want to cultivate someone who can rival him.

When he understands his true identity, Tom Foley will also benefit.

When Grindelwald discovers that the guy who got him imprisoned has become even more powerful under Dumbledore's guidance, he will be even more dedicated to guiding Li Chuan.

By using both overt and covert identities to simultaneously put pressure on the Black Demon King and the White Demon King, they can quickly drain their coffers.

So it's a win-win situation, why wouldn't you agree?

Seeing that Li Chuan had actually taken the initiative to accept this difficult task, Grindelwald nodded in satisfaction; this was exactly the result he wanted.

When the other dark wizards saw Li Chuan step forward, their faces showed shock and admiration. He actually dared to fight Dumbledore, a wizard as powerful as Grindelwald.

After the meeting ended, the other dark wizards were making various preparations for the upcoming gathering, while Li Chuan stayed behind and sat alone opposite Grindelwald.

"Grindelwald, you know I'm no match for Dumbledore right now, and if I go, I might not come back."

"Don't worry, even if you lose, Albus won't hurt you. At most, he'll send you to prison, and I'll get you out after the rally is successful."

And if you really can't win, I'll allow you to run away.

Grindelwald admitted that he never thought Li Chuan would win, even though Li Chuan was indeed a very powerful wizard.

Li Chuan shook his head after hearing this:

"That's not enough. I need you to teach me your improved Fiendfyre spell and the teleportation spell that can be cast silently and without a staff, just with hand gestures."
