I might change between Jiang and General from time to time
Since we support each others development, I suppose Jiang City, under Xiao Jiangs control, is about to be taken, right? Xiao Jiang coldly spoke.
Hua Jiang chuckled, Xiao Jiangs methods are no match for mine. Frostfall City is such a large city, and Xiao Jiang dares to advance bravely. My Jiang City cant compare.
Hua Jiang superficially complimented Xiao Jiang while actually stabbing Yin Jiang in the back.
Since they were pursuing their own development, it was certain that the cities closer to their own gates would be more advantageous. The southern gate of Hua Jiang corresponded to Jiang City, a once prosperous metropolis. If they occupied it, the strength of Hua Jiang would undoubtedly increase significantly.
The eastern gate outside Frostfall City corresponded to Frostfall City itself. Beyond Frostfall City to the east was Yunjing City, the economic and political center. The closer it was to Yunking City, the more prosperous it became. Frostfall City was wealthier than Jiang City and had a larger land area.1TLs note: too much city T^T
The western gate corresponding to Jin City was also decent for the Mo faction, on par with Jiang City. Both were second-tier cities. Although they were not as strong as Frostfall City, they were still quite good.
On the other hand, the northern gate corresponding to Li City was a third-tier city. Even if they captured it, there would be no future development. In other words, the entire north had no prospects for development. The best regions were in the east and south. These two directions were either occupied by Xiao Jiangs faction or Hua Jiangs faction. Yin Jiang would definitely be unwilling to guard the northern wilderness.
After the meeting filled with cold sarcasm and confrontation came to an end, Lord Nie just left the conference room when his adjutant hurriedly approached to report. Lord Nie finally learned that the Sixth District had already turned upside down during his meeting.
Lord Nie hurriedly rushed home, witnessing numerous destroyed areas along the way. The people in the Sixth District were in a state of panic, discussing the recent intense pursuit battle. The battle was fierce, causing significant damage to buildings and vehicles, but they failed to apprehend anyone.
Lord Nies face turned grave. Just as he stepped into his home, he heard a womans wailing cry and hysterical scream, What do you mean they escaped?! There was no one in the car, and you didnt search? I want them dead! They must pay for my brothers life!
Nie Tianlings forehead was furrowed. Thats the Fourth District, not the Sixth District.
People from the Sixth District rushed into the Fourth District to search. Were the people from Hua Jiang dead? A city-wide brawl was about to unfold in a matter of minutes.
Yu Jinlin screamed, Nie Tianling! He is my brother! Hao Haos uncle! As your brother-in-law, dont you seek revenge for him? Instead, youre here worrying about regional issues. Do you really consider him your brother?! Think about what he has done for you and Hao Hao all these years! How much has he done for you, taking on your burdens? He went to the Jinyang Beast Park to help Hao Hao pursue Miss Hua. Now hes been killed, and youre not even willing to avenge him?!
Nie Tianling also grew furious, Its not that I dont want to avenge him, but we cant catch the culprits!
Yu Jinlin scolded angrily, The entire Sixth District cant catch two people, what else can you accomplish, one by one?!
Whats all this commotion?! Lord Nie bellowed in anger, and the noisy living room immediately fell silent.
Yu Jinlins eyes turned red from crying. She knew that Nie Tianling doted on her, but it was different with Lord Nie. He never held them, the siblings, in high regard. If Nie Tianling hadnt insisted on marrying her, she wouldnt have been able to enter the Nie familys door.
Lord Nie glared angrily at Nie Tianling, Mobilizing troops, using energy weapons, destroying the ground and buildings, are these things youve done?!
Nie Tianling explained, Father, Jinhui was killed. If we dont pursue justice, where will our Nie familys face be?
Lord Nie was exasperated. He had to compete with those guys in the military and then come home to clean up his sons mess. His grandson was nowhere to be found, who knows where he had run off to. Comparing his son and grandson to Xiao Jiangs son and Yin Jiangs grandson, it was clear that one side was far superior. What misfortune had the Nie family brought upon themselves? Each generation was worse than the last.
Why was Jinhui killed? Lord Nie asked.
Yu Jinlins crying halted, and Nie Tianling found it difficult to speak.
How was he supposed to explain? His younger brother took advantage of his power, captured people with special abilities, cut off their hands, and sold them for money and gifts. Then, the friends of those people came looking for them, rescued them, and killed his younger brother?
Just by looking at their reactions, Lord Nie knew something was amiss. Speak!
Nie Tianling had no choice but to recount the whole incident.
Lord Nie was so furious he nearly passed out. Imprisonment, mutilating hands, using living people as energy sources, and now being killed in retaliation. Yet, you have the audacity to cry? You still have the audacity to search for people throughout the entire district? You havent caught anyone, and youve turned the Nie family into a laughingstock in the entire Sixth District, and even in Central Mega City! Is this the great work youve done?!
Yu Jinlin defended her younger brother, Those were gifts given to Jinhui, not things he captured. Besides, hasnt Tianling always wanted to establish a connection with the First District? Those energy crystals were the best gift. If it wasnt for Jinhuis gift, how could Tianling have easily achieved his wish
Nie Tianling hurriedly interrupted, Enough, stop talking nonsense! How dare you say such things?!
If this got out and the Third District found out about their secret communication with the First District, wouldnt they immediately take action against them?
Father! Nie Hao rushed in from outside. Father, have you caught the culprit? What about my uncle? Is he really beyond saving? Did you call for a healer?
As soon as Yu Jinlin saw Nie Hao return, she immediately burst into tears. Hao Hao, your uncle was killed because he wanted to buy a mutant ragdoll cat for you. Now that the culprits havent been caught, your uncles death was so tragic wuwu
Father! Grandfather! Why are you all gathered here? Why havent you caught the culprit yet?! Nie Hao was extremely anxious.
Old Nie glared at his troublesome daughter-in-law and said, Hao Hao, dont worry about this matter. Your father and I will handle it.
Nie Hao stomped his foot and said, My beloved uncle was killed, how can I not worry?! Grandfather, give me the energy guns and energy cannons. I want to personally lead people to catch the murderer. I will avenge my uncle!
Hao Hao, your uncle loved you so much
Enough! Old Nie was about to be infuriated. He tried to persuade Nie Hao in a gentle tone, Hao Hao, listen to me. Dont get involved in this matter. Grandfather promises that we will catch the murderer. Dont take risks, understand?
Nie Hao looked at his grandfather, then at his father, and then at his weeping mother. What else was there to be unclear about? Grandfather had never liked his uncle, and now that his uncle was dead, it was almost impossible to expect grandfather to avenge him.
Without saying a word, Nie Hao turned around and left.
If you wont avenge my uncle, then Ill do it myself!
Where are you going, Hao Hao? Old Nie shouted from behind.
Im going to avenge my uncle! Nie Hao rushed to his car and drove off quickly.
Old Nie and Nie Tianling quickly sent people to chase after him. They couldnt let Nie Hao go alone. Those two were obviously powerful, and if Nie Hao recklessly charged in, he would definitely be in danger.
Mi Yan, who was in a coma, finally woke up.
His body was too weak, and the energy orbs provided by Wen Qingling were being absorbed slowly. The wounds on his wrists had stopped bleeding, but no new hands had grown back.
Mi Yan was still being held in Wen Qinglings arms. The first thing he saw was Luo Fengjue, who was standing next to them with his hair standing on end, and the unfamiliar surroundings.
His voice was hoarse. Did we escape?
Yeah, we escaped. We dont have to be their energy source anymore! Luo Fengjue was very excited. He reached out to take Mi Yan, and Wen Qingling handed him over. Mi Yan skillfully embraced Luo Fengjues neck, burying his head in his neck without moving for a long time.
Xiao Hen watched the way the two interacted, and his eyes sparkled.
Perhaps he could have one less love rival now?
Wen Qingling stared at the two of them, looking left and right. His eyes were almost glued to them. Before he could speak, Xiao Hen covered him and dragged him to the side. Lets go ahead and wait for them.
Xiao Hen led Wen Qingling away, giving them some alone time. It was indeed a clever move.
Wen Qingling looked back while walking, dissatisfied, and poked Xiao Hen. What are you doing? Mi Yan woke up, and I havent asked him about his condition yet.
Xiao Hen held him and continued walking forward. No rush, let them take their time.
Just as they reached the end of the alley, they came face to face with several pairs of dark eyes. A few dirty children stood against the wall, staring at them. They muttered to themselves, Black mask, black hat, fits the description
Wen Qingling: ???
Wen Qingling put his hands on her hips. Kids, dare to stalk us? Are you looking to taste the punches of adults?
The children:
Xiao Hen:
Xiao Hen quickly grabbed him and said, Are you looking for us?
One of the older children answered, We received a message that if we see people with black hats and black masks, we should tell them that if they have nowhere to go, they can go to the Fifth District.
Xiao Hen nodded. We got it.
The children, afraid of being beaten, delivered the message and quickly ran away, not even daring to ask for food.
It seems like the boss of the Mud Rat Organization should be in the Fifth District. Xiao Hen concluded.
Wen Qingling stared at Xiao Hens face for a moment before saying, What about your father? Dont you want to see him?
Xiao Hen:
Xiao Hen: No need.
When he left, Xiao Jiang made it clear that he should never come back. How could he go and see him? Besides, he didnt want to.
Mi Yan was excited to hear that Wen Qingling had come and saved them. He was bleeding again due to his excitement.
Luo Fengjue hurriedly grabbed his bleeding wrists and called out to Wen Qingling, Qingling, come quickly! Mi Yan is bleeding from excitement!
What? Wen Qingling didnt understand what bleeding from excitement meant. He quickly came back and saw the dried bandages becoming wet again.
Mi Yan stared at Wen Qingling, extremely excited, and kept calling out to him.
Lingzi, how did you come here? Lingzi, are you so powerful now? You easily saved us! Lingzi, I heard you have a base in Ling City, is it true?
Lingzi
Youre silenced. Wen Qingling had a cold expression. Three minutes.
Mi Yan hurriedly closed his mouth.
Luo Fengjue:
Xiao Hen:
Wen Qingling reached out to Xiao Hen. First aid kit.
Xiao Hen handed him the first aid kit and watched as Wen Qingling clumsily removed the bandages. He didnt have any control over his strength, and Mi Yan was in pain to the point of madness. Since he was silenced, he couldnt make any sounds, so he could only kick Wen Qingling with his feet repeatedly.
Wen Qingling tapped his leg lightly. Immobilize.
Mi Yan indeed stopped moving, but he could only use a deathly gaze to try to awaken Wen Qinglings conscience as the Demon Lord.
Xiao Hen couldnt bear to watch and said, Let me do it.
Wen Qingling stepped aside, allowing Xiao Hen to take over.
