Shui Ruohan fell to the ground, blood at the corner of his mouth. He propped himself up and looked at Night Lock with a contemptuous smile: “Are you provoked? Rumors say the king of Night Mountain is even-tempered and restrained… Seems that’s not quite true.”
“Damn…” Night Lock cursed and struck another punch. The sickly Shui Ruohan collapsed again but laughed even more contemptuously.
han, you’re just a small doctor. I’ll kill you right now!” Night Lock raised his hand angrily. I almost rushed up to stop him, but Shui Ruohan laughed fearlessly, “My Lord, you look in good spirits. I believe I haven’t guessed wrong. Suo Mulang and Lang Yue have already become pawns used by both you and the imperial court… Let me tell you the truth, the imperial court no longer wants Xiao City. The 30,000 troops outside the mountain only obey me. If you want to kill this small doctor and then use the emotions of Xiao City and Suo Mulang’s family to restrain the imperial court, you’re gravely mistaken!”
Night Lock’s hand trembled. His misty eyes were complex, his hand suspended in midair, hesitating but not dropping.
I bit my lip and ran forward, carefully holding his hand. He had painstakingly planned everything but didn’t realize he was a move short, overlooking that while Suo Mulang’s family wasn’t dead, they were already sacrificial.
“King of Night Mountain, what’s more important – Miss Long or the millions of people in Night Mountain? I can weigh it for you!” Shui Ruohan still smiled as light as the wind.
Night Lock gripped my hand tightly, causing me pain. Frowning, he coldly spat out two words: “Don’t even think about it,” then pulled me away.
“Aren’t you and Xiao Cheng his people? I’ve long been familiar with Liu Yu’s meticulous thinking and bold actions. Although I’m not highly intelligent, I know the strategy that destroyed Xiao Cheng was his plan… Therefore, he could carefully arrange so much, so what could be wrong with his current situation?” I explained impatiently.
“Miss Dragon, you are truly clever as snow and ice.”
“Hey, hey, hey, I warn you, people who praise me for being clever will fall in love with me, so I advise you to be careful!” I said half-jokingly.
