Beneath the Upper City

No one knows when it began—

But the world was split in two.

Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.

Those in the Lower City survive in a crampe...

Chapter 582 Queen Bee

Ning Fan waved his hand and said, "Forget it, Uncle Ming, you don't have to give me any explanation. I believe that Sister Feng's situation is rare among the [Mudworms]."

This is not Ning Fan giving Liang Ming a way out.

He really thought so.

The uniqueness of Sister Feng lies in the mismatch between her status and her intelligence.

Because she was raised by Liang Ming and was deeply trusted by Liang Ming, she was placed in this position.

Liang Ming was in remote command and needed someone he absolutely trusted to carry out the execution.

This person happens to be Sister Feng.

So, to put it nicely, Sister Feng is Liang Ming's confidant.

To put it bluntly, she is just a puppet.

But now, the puppet has become a spirit.

She felt that she had intelligence.

Then the current result appeared.

Ning Fan said that there wouldn't be too many people like this in [Mudworm].

Anyone with brains wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

A person without brains cannot sit in this position.

"No, Ning Fan, I'm not saying I want to kill her."

Liang Ming raised his head and asked seriously, "Ah Feng's spirit servant is very special."

Ning Fan became a little interested.

Liang Ming said slowly: "Actually, there is a reason why Ah Feng is so fat."

In the dark dungeon, Sister Bee was locked in a huge cage.

Liang Ming was sitting in a wheelchair at this time, looking at her from outside, with a bit more heartache in his eyes.

No matter what, after all, he was the one who raised the child.

Liang Ming had no children.

He treated all the young people in [Mudworm] as his own children.

And Sister Feng is one of the children with whom he has the deepest feelings.

"Uncle Ming."

Sister Feng was lying on the cold ground, her face pale.

She laughed bitterly: "Ning Fan is back?"

Liang Ming didn't say anything, but nodded.

Sister Feng took a deep breath.

"I'm going to die, right?"

"Ning Fan didn't mean to kill you."

Liang Ming said calmly, "To be precise, he has placed your life and death in my hands."

Sister Feng narrowed her eyes.

"Uncle Ming, he's trying to win people's hearts."

"Yes, I can see that."

Liang Ming's expression remained calm: "But, for me, it is very useful."

Winning people's hearts, so what?

Ning Fan's ability to achieve this is enough for Liang Ming.

"Uncle Ming, Yefengkou... is our home!"

Sister Bee cried, "I don't understand, why can't we be the masters of our own homes?"

"Because our fists are not strong enough."

Liang Ming was very patient with Sister Feng: "I also thought about this question when I was young, and I think about it every day, but now... I don't think about it anymore."

"You...are a coward!"

Sister Feng said through gritted teeth.

Liang Ming chuckled: "Yes."

Sister Feng still refused to accept it.

But Liang Ming continued: "Ah Feng, there is a truth that you still don't understand."

"They have the ability to kill us all."

"We, however, don't have the ability to fight back."

"I know you have good intentions and you have backbone."

"But even though we knew we couldn't win, we still had to fight with everyone..."

“It’s irresponsible.”

"We are the masters of the Mudworm."

"If we deviate even a little, the children below will die."

"Most importantly, those children may not even know why they died."

Liang Ming gave a bitter laugh. "Besides, Ah Feng, think about it, will the next generation of young people really still regard Yefengkou as their own place?"

"They have long been accustomed to this kind of life."

"In their world, Wild Wind Pass was originally a place jointly ruled by three major regions."

"We are the only ones who are unwilling to accept this!"

"No, I'm not unwilling anymore."

After Liang Ming finished speaking, Sister Feng clenched her fists.

Obsession.

From the perspective of the Yefengkou indigenous people, her idea is correct.

She wants to find her home again.

Her mistake was that she overestimated her own abilities and underestimated her opponent's.

"Afeng, I've found a way to survive for you."

Liang Ming said again.

Sister Feng was stunned.

Although she was not smart, she roughly knew what kind of person Ning Fan was.

Ruthless person!

The means are very vicious!

She had made such a big mistake, there was no reason for Ning Fan to keep her.

unless……

"Uncle Ming, what does he want me to do?"

Sister Feng asked in a low voice.

Liang Ming shook his head: "That's not what he wants you to do."

"Ning Fan didn't ask you to do anything. Even if you don't do anything, as long as I speak up for you, he won't kill you."

"You can live like this forever, without paying any price."

"But, since they showed mercy to us [Mudworms], I can't just stand there and say nothing."

“Trust is something that is mutual.”

"I always take advantage of others' tolerance towards me, but I don't even give anything back..."

"Eventually, trust will fade."

After hearing this, Sister Feng understood.

"You... want me to help him train [Worker Bees]?"

Liang Ming nodded.

Sister Feng’s face turned pale.

It’s not that it’s difficult to train [worker bees].

Rather, she didn't want to work for Ning Fan from the very beginning.

But now he has to help Ning Fan expand his power!

This completely went against her original intention.

"Uncle Ming, do we have to be so humble?"
