"Heh, with your mediocre skills, you can only handle two soldiers." The armored man's words were cold, and his eyes immediately darkened.

Zheng—

Nan Qianyue's knife suddenly jolted, and she released it as if she had been electrocuted. The cleaver fell to the ground with a thud, and before she could react, a long spear was already at her neck.

Her eyes widened in shock. How did this armored man manage that? She was, after all, a high-level Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) Silver Dragon, and he was so easily subdued?

"You, you, you better let me go, or my dad will definitely not let you off the hook and will wipe you all out!"

Her father has connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds. If he finds out that his precious daughter has been kidnapped by human traffickers, who knows what kind of storm he'll cause.

The armored man didn't know who she was talking about, but judging from her tone, he was certain that she had a very powerful background.

"General, Dongling is demanding the lives of our people. If we don't open the city gates and surrender, they will slaughter our people one by one under the city walls!"

The armored man's eyes flashed with anger. "Aren't the common people all inside the city? How could they be arrested?"

The soldier was frantic, tears streaming down his face. "The people are all saying that even the wind can't hold the city. If we don't escape in advance and Dongling breaks through the city gates, everyone will die a horrible death under Dongling's blade."

"Last night, more than a dozen civilians drugged the guards and sneaked out using ropes. Dongling has completely surrounded Fengdu, how could they have escaped!"

After listening for a while, Nanqianyue began to doubt their identities...
