Why My Domineering Prince Regretted Filing for Divorce? Chapter 379 - 339: His "Rebellion" Became Right!

Just as they looked up, a series of heavy drum beats ca from deep within the mountains, echoing among the peaks, growing more deafening, like muffled thunder.

For a mont, the three people in the pavilion fell silent.

The drum beats...

The Broken Soul Drum of Wanggang Village, aning Wang Quyi had killed Li Wen Yang.

It seems Wang Quyi acted impartially, since Li Wen Yang killed the eighth leader of Wanggang Village, Wu Qian, and his n, he was deed a traitor and was executed, showing Wanggang Village’s strict enforcent of the law.

It’s just a pity...

All the previous efforts were in vain.

Although Shen Wuzheng had a steady temperant, rarely showing emotions on his face except when seeing Shang Ruyi, at this mont, there was an unavoidable hint of gloom in his eyes.

After a mont of silence, Shang Ruyi softly said, "Brother."

"Hmm?"

Shen Wuzheng looked up at her, his eyes full of tenderness.

The words of comfort he intended to say suddenly seed unnecessary, moreover, Shang Ruyi was also quite annoyed in her heart, so she said through gritted teeth, "How did this person suddenly change his ways?"

Seeing her angrily puffed-up look, the gloom in his heart was swept away.

Shen Wuzheng also smiled and said, "Yes, who would have thought this person would change his ways, but it’s a pity that I spent so long with the pen in my mouth drawing the map."

Even though she wanted to comfort him, Shen Wuzheng’s words made Shang Ruyi herself burst into laughter.

At this mont, Yu Wenye, sitting on the side, frowned slightly and said softly, "That shouldn’t be."

The two looked at him.

Yu Wenye said, "A leopard can’t change its spots, Wang Quyi is inherently greedy, it’s impossible for him to change that overnight. Besides, whether it’s the Left General’s Tomb or any implications with Xiao Yuansui, these things are advantageous to him, he shouldn’t give up so easily."

Upon hearing this, Shen Wuzheng also cald his mind to think.

Indeed.

His teacher once said that so traits are innate and accompany one’s existence forever, greed being one of them, and the hardest to change; especially since Wang Quyi is in this position, with the handle of Left General’s Tomb and Xiao Yuansui practically handed to him, it’s even less likely for him to give up easily.

Could it be—

Just when there was sothing unusual in the hearts of all three, suddenly, a dull sound ca again from the mountain path.

The sound of hoofbeats!

The three were startled, all turning their heads, and indeed saw a rider galloping swiftly down the rugged mountain road, his figure thin, a large pack strapped to his back like a hunchback, clearly carrying a large bundle of provisions.

This person was obviously in a hurry to deliver a ssage, riding fast down the mountain and along the long road eastward, disappearing in no ti at the end of the road.

Watching this scene, the three were speechless for a mont, the pavilion was so quiet that even the sound of the dust slowly settling could be heard.

After a while, Shang Ruyi let out a "Ha."

Everyone instantly snapped back to reality.

Shang Ruyi looked at Shen Wuzheng and smiled, "Brother, they still sent soone."

Shen Wuzheng said nothing, only lifted his head to look at the rolling dust at the end of the eastern road, the figure of the rider now invisible, his expression was sowhat complex, after a while, he chuckled softly, "It seems, human nature is hard to fathom."

Yu Wenye, sitting on the side, also had a shadow cast over his eyes.

He said, "We thought about human greed, but we didn’t expect that human nature could be so greedy."

Only then did Shang Ruyi recall the earlier Broken Soul Drum, and looking at the dust raised by the rider galloping past, she felt a sudden chill.

She said hoarsely, "Wang Quyi still killed Li Wen Yang."

Yu Wenye nodded, "It seems, he doesn’t want others to know about the treasure in the Left General’s Tomb."

"..."

"Or rather, fewer people to split it with is favorable to him."

"..."

Shang Ruyi’s brow furrowed tightly.

If their earlier assumption that Wang Quyi would have soone seek out Xiao Yuansui to seize the treasure in the Left General’s Tomb is a manifestation of human depravity, then him killing Li Wen Yang and sending soone to seek out Xiao Yuansui is a form of malevolence!

Shen Wuzheng pondered for a mont, saying, "But for us, it’s still a good thing."

Shang Ruyi looked at him, "Why?"

Shen Wuzheng replied, "Nine leaders in Wanggang Village, and just like that two are dead. That’s certainly good for us if we want to take down Wanggang Village."
