Region F.
【Top wall】outside.
"I'm quite surprised you made it out alive."
A white-haired old man stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the darkness in front of him.
From the darkness, bursts of low growls could be heard from time to time, like the wails of evil spirits in hell.
"Su Wanjun is not a merciful person. If you betray him, he will not let you go."
The old man turned his head and smiled slightly: "So it's hard for me to trust you when you come to me... General Ye."
Ye Liang stood behind the old man with a cold face.
The injuries on his body had almost healed, but there were still a few shallow marks on his face from being whipped.
"It was Su Bei who released me."
Ye Liang's voice was hoarse, completely lacking the crispness it had before.
The old man was startled for a moment, then laughed and said, "That kid, is he trying to rebel against his father?"
"Su Wanjun killed his mother."
Ye Liang said.
The old man raised his eyebrows and after just a moment's thought, he understood: "So, you and Su Bei have a common enemy, Su Wanjun?"
Ye Liang nodded: "It's not just me and Su Bei. I know that you have always been dissatisfied with Su Wanjun."
"Yeah! It's no secret that Su Wanjun and I don't get along. Who can get along with that lunatic?"
The old man's smile gradually became strange: "But the thing is, I don't intend to turn against him!"
Ye Liang frowned.
The old man said leisurely, "In this world, there are so many people who are not on the same page as me. I can't turn against all of them, right?"
"You're afraid of him."
Ye Liang's eyes were gloomy.
The old man looked at Ye Liang quietly, without any displeasure: "Ye Liang! Do you think that I, at my age, could be provoked by such words of yours?"
"You didn't deny it."
Ye Liang said again.
The old man scratched his head and chuckled again: "Yes, I am afraid of him."
This time, Ye Liang was slightly stunned.
The person in front of him actually admitted so casually that he was afraid of Su Wanjun?
"Su Wanjun is a man with no bottom line."
The old man turned his head away from Ye Liang and sighed, "People, once they don't care about something, it becomes very difficult to deal with them."
Ye Liang understood.
If Ye Liang could be as cold-blooded and ruthless as Su Wanjun, he would never reveal Su Bei's whereabouts.
But he couldn't do it.
What happened to him, even now, makes him feel heartbroken.
The person in front of him is afraid of Su Wanjun.
Why isn't he afraid?
"I can't accept you."
The old man continued, "Even if you sincerely want to join me, there is no need for me to let Su Wanjun find a reason to attack me because of you."
Ye Liang's eyes fixed.
He seemed to understand something.
The old man's next words also confirmed his thoughts.
"You and that kid Su Bei take Su Wanjun too lightly."
"It's already strange that Su Wanjun allowed you to meet Su Bei alive."
"And Su Bei has a chance to release you. Do you think Su Wanjun wouldn't know about it?"
"He thinks he's the best! Can you hide your every move from the heavens?"
"Rather than saying that it was Su Bei who released you, it would be better to say...it was Su Wanjun who acquiesced."
"He did this just to see who would dare to take you in!"
The old man's eyes were not cloudy at all, but surprisingly bright: "A dog that betrayed Su Wanjun, whoever dares to take it in will have a reason to beat him!"
Ye Liang's body froze.
The old man's words made his body tremble even more violently.
He never imagined that even now, he could not escape Su Wanjun's control.
"No, impossible."
Ye Liang swallowed hard, "He...isn't he afraid that if a war really breaks out, [Top Wall] will fall?"
"Why should he be afraid? If the [Top Wall] falls, all of District F will be devastated."
The old man smiled and said, "What does that have to do with Su Wanjun?"
Ye Liang felt very cold.
It's the kind of coldness that emanates from the heart.
yes!
Su Wanjun...
Don't care about anyone!
He doesn't even care about his own son!
Then he...
Do you still care about the life and death of these people in District F?
Will you still be afraid to protect Region F?
Won't!
"This guy! Inhumane..."
Ye Liang noticed that the old man's tone was filled with helplessness as he spoke. "Whether it's Xiaolin, me, or the headquarters, we've been so tolerant of him because he's still guarding the [Top Wall]! But we can't guarantee how long he can hold out."
"The headquarters has been looking for an opportunity to take action against him, and the reason why he hasn't completely turned against the headquarters is probably because he still has some unfinished business."
"I don't know what he's planning, but I can imagine that when he's ready..."
"The whole city... is going to be in chaos!"
Ye Liang was silent.
He knew that his previous idea of relying on the other two commanders was no longer valid.
The old man in front of him has more qualifications than Su Wanjun.
Even he didn't dare to confront Su Wanjun, so what about his own revenge...
How to report it?
"Ye Liang, go back."
The old man waved his hand and sighed, "You can make as much noise as you want in this area! It's unrealistic to expect me to help you get revenge."
"No matter how heinous Su Wanjun is, it's not my turn to intervene."
"There is only one meaning for my life."
