Chapter 267: Killing if you can't win

The river is now turbulent, and even people who are good swimmers will be swept far away if they go in, and whether they can climb out depends on luck.

So if these soldiers go down, they will definitely die.

Ling Cang glanced at the team beside him, and a look of fearlessness in their faces appeared.

"Tsk tsk, this fat man's people are really loyal. They don't hesitate to let them die."

Li Fengxing behind him laughed and said, "Do you think we should go down to the river?"

Ling Cang glanced sideways, "Why did you come here to join in the fun? Isn't your interest in making money?"

Li Fengxing nodded. "Yes, we can make money, but we will definitely get a reward after this competition. No matter how much it is, it's still money."

Ling Cang was speechless. What kind of person is this? Why didn’t he realize before that he loves money so much?

Li Fengxing smiled and said, "Not only can you get money, but if your wife is happy, she might even agree to one of my conditions."

Ling Cang was even more speechless, feeling a little unhappy, "You can't be thinking about my wife."

Li Fengxing didn't care about his cold attitude and said with a smile: "I know you treat her as your sister and will divorce her when things are stable in the future, so I should behave better now, and maybe it will be smooth sailing when I ask her to marry me in the future."

Ling Cang asked in astonishment: "My performance is so obvious?"

Li Fengxing nodded, "Yes, we all saw it, but Su Nuan didn't seem to have considered your thoughts at all."

Ling Cang was silent. If they were all thinking about Su Nuan, he couldn't leave easily.

At least I have to wait and see. After all, I don’t want Su Nuan to be unhappy in the second half of her life.

He thought of Ling Yun and couldn't help cursing in his heart, "You little brat, why don't you come back? If you don't like Su Nuan, then I'll test someone else."

Ling Yun, who leads troops deep in the mountains...

"A-choo..."

Ling Yun rubbed his nose. Why was he sneezing for no reason?

A thin woman asked, "Master, have you caught a cold?"

Ling Yun shook his head, "Nothing, hurry up and dig up this ancient tomb."

"When the jeweler from Northern Snow Country was buried three hundred years ago, there must have been a lot of jewels. Take them all out."

The woman said, "Yes!"

A smile appeared on Ling Yun's lips, and Su Nuan's appearance appeared in his mind.

I wonder if my sister-in-law will like these beautiful gems...

"A-choo..."

He started sneezing again.

Ling Cang, the culprit, suddenly stopped cursing in his heart and looked at the river not far ahead.

The team next to them was obviously much slower. They also saw the river, but they could not stop without orders. No matter how small and slow their steps were, they would eventually reach the river.

Ling Cang deliberately said: "Don't stop without orders, we can't lose!"

The city lord's men felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. They couldn't stop either. If they stopped, the city lord would kill them.

Su Nuan, who was watching the fun, looked very proud.

The space spirit transmitted a message, "How do you know the city lord's men won't stop?"

Su Nuan replied, "Their servility is ingrained in their bones, and they are also extremely afraid of the city lord, so they would rather die than disobey orders."

The Space Spirit continued, "So you're certain Ling Cang isn't afraid of Cheng Feng, so Ling Cang won't lead anyone into the river?"

Su Nuan asked, "Didn't you hear what I said just now?"

The Space Spirit smiled awkwardly, "I didn't hear that. I was just discussing something with Hai Lan."

Su Nuan asked curiously, "What are you discussing?"

The space spirit didn't hide it and said, "There are many things in this space that can be used in this era. He said he would dig a hole and disguise it as an ancient tomb, and then you can dig it out and use it."

Su Nuan's eyes lit up, "That's a good idea."

The space spirit then asked, "Go ahead, it's your turn to answer me."

Su Nuan said, "It's not that Ling Cang isn't afraid of Cheng Feng. I told them what to do when we get to the river. Just wait and see. It would be meaningless if I told them."

The space spirit said sullenly, "Okay."

Now the two teams are still moving forward, but the speed is very slow and the distance between them is far, so it looks like they are stopped.

The city lord struggled for a moment and said breathlessly, "Let them come back."

Cheng Feng said slowly: "What? The city lord admitted defeat? Then you have to listen to me from now on."

The city lord angrily said, "Bullshit, I am the city lord, you are just a guard dog, how can a dog not obey its master?"

Cheng Feng was not angry even after being scolded, and smiled and said, "Is that so?"

The city lord was startled by Cheng Feng's two drawn-out words, which were full of dissatisfaction.

Anyone who can be the city lord is not a fool. He began to reflect, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong he felt, and finally his face turned pale.

Cheng Feng had long expected that the city lord would figure out the key, but now it was too late.

The city lord suddenly remembered something and shouted, "I'm going to kill you. I still have someone I can use."

He struggled again, but failed to stand up and rolled directly to the ground.

Cheng Feng smiled and said, "Your people are indeed very obedient. They have already started walking towards the river."

The city lord shouted, "Aren't your people also leaving? Don't you care whether they live or die?"

Cheng Feng laughed heartily and said smugly, "Why should you care? You only have these eighteen people. If they all die, there will be no one left."

"Eighteen people have died here, it doesn't hurt, there are still plenty of people available."

The city lord's face was ashen. He completely believed what Cheng Feng said because he was telling the truth.

Su Nuan looked at the city lord. He was now a bachelor who couldn't take care of himself. He was just a vase.

But this vase cannot be without it. As long as he is alive, there will be no new city lord coming here.

She took out her binoculars to check the scene along the river.

Cheng Feng immediately said, "Let me see it quickly. I have to see this wonderful thing with my own eyes."

Su Nuan was speechless and handed the telescope over.

They had just seen most of the city lord's men fall into the water, but Ling Cang and his men continued to move forward, but they were standing still by the river, and as long as they did not stop, it would not be considered a violation of orders.

Cheng Feng took a look and laughed, "Hahahaha... Although I heard the plan, it's still refreshing to see it with my own eyes."

Su Nuan raised an eyebrow and said, "You won't say I'm vicious? Those are eighteen lives."

Cheng Feng laughed and said, "Vicious? Is it vicious to eliminate harm for the people?"

"The city lord is not a good person, and his lackeys are even less so."

Su Nuan nodded in agreement, "Yeah, that's right."

Lei Wuya walked over to Su Nuan and asked, "What is Ling Cang's current action called?"

Su Nuan replied: "Standing still, what's wrong?"

Lei Wuya touched his chin and said, "I see. Interesting, interesting."

Su Nuan didn't know why Lei Wuya was so concerned about his steps, and didn't want to ask, so she continued to watch the situation by the river.

The people who were still walking towards the river suddenly stopped and counterattacked Ling Cang's team.

It seems that he wants to kill Ling Cang's people just because he can't win. How despicable!
