Yu Wenye’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He thought he had been calm enough, whether during the battles of these days, the deploynts, or even when he plumted off the edge of the cliff into Xingluo Warehouse City, concealing himself within this cold and vast storeroom, he felt not a trace of fear.
But at this mont, upon hearing the calm voice of this young girl, his heart pounded wildly instead.
It felt as if it was about to leap out of his chest.
Yet he imdiately suppressed this heartbeat, lifting his head to look ahead, where so people were retreating in fear, but others, their eyes filled with anger instead of fear, gripped their swords and blades tightly, approaching step by step.
Yu Wenye took a deep breath.
He had just killed Lu Yong intentionally, because this person had to be killed, and also because he needed to use a shocking blow to quickly and thoroughly crush the hearts of so people.
Such a cruel and bloody scene indeed scared so people out of their wits.
However, in Wanggang Village, and among Xiao Yuansui’s subordinates, there were not just ordinary people; there were those who, in the most adverse circumstances, under the most fearful mindset, would develop a spirit of unyielding resistance.
The people before him were such individuals.
Witnessing him brutally slaying a living brother, these people, in desperation, summoned a force of anger, declaring, "We cannot let our brothers die in vain!"
"That’s right, even if you co, so what? We will not surrender!"
"Yu Wenye, we from Wanggang Village are not cowards!"
Seeing those people advancing step by step, Yu Wenye didn’t take a single step back, and not only did he not retreat, but he also stood in front of Shang Ruyi, with a horizontal blade in hand, exuding an aura as if thousands of troops and horses couldn’t withstand him.
And at this mont, the door he had opened slightly gave another long creak and was pushed open completely.
Then, a squad of n and horses suddenly charged up from behind them, lining up neatly beside Yu Wenye, forcibly blocking the Wanggang Army that was ready to rush forward!
It was his n!
Shang Ruyi widened her eyes, watching those soldiers stand on either side with swords and blades in hand, filled with murderous intent, but soon regained her composure.
Yu Wenye naturally wouldn’t enter Xingluo Warehouse City alone, no matter how effective his strategy, the Warehouse City was heavily guarded; even if he had the power of a Heavenly God, it would be impossible to control the victory alone, so bringing in such a squad, at least at this mont, could contend with Xiao Yuansui!
However——
Her gaze flickered quickly, skimming over this squad, and her heart skipped a beat.
Here, there were only a few dozen people.
On the opposite side, although Xiao Yuansui’s troops and the Wanggang Village’s had slaughtered each other, many had died, but there were still over a hundred left, and furthermore, each pass in the Warehouse City still had their guards, once those people gathered, this small number of n and horses simply couldn’t resist!
While her gaze flickered, estimating in her heart, on the opposite side, those bright eyes also glinted with insight, calculating in a flash.
However, the first thing Xiao Yuansui did was raise a hand to stop those who were ready to charge forward behind him.
Those people were bewildered, halting in their steps.
One of them said angrily, "Chief, are we going to be soft-hearted at this ti?"
"Are we not the butcher’s knives and he our fish to slaughter?"
"Even if not for avenging Lu Yong, our brothers dying here is also because of this man’s sche, we have to kill him!"
Xiao Yuansui shook his head, but did not respond to them, lifting his head instead to look at Yu Wenye, that handso face serene as ice, he said, "Yu Wenye, you took away more than ten thousand people, and here, it’s rely a drop in the ocean."
"..."
"Where are the rest of them!"
Those nearby were also startled upon hearing this.
Yu Wenye smiled faintly, saying, "You are still clear-headed."
Xiao Yuansui said, "Previously, we couldn’t find their whereabouts, now I understand, it’s because you sent them to Wanggang Village, the fire, too, was set by them, that’s why we couldn’t find them in Huangtu Ridge."
"..."
"But now that you have appeared here, where are those people?"
Yu Wenye did not imdiately answer him but slowly lifted his head, turning his face sideways.
A gust of wind brushed past his ear, blowing his slightly disheveled sideburns into the air, as if sothing was coming with the cold wind.
Xiao Yuansui said, "You——"
Before he could finish speaking, Yu Wenye said, "Just now, you couldn’t hear it."
