Withdraw the troops!
Upon hearing these two words, Wang Hao couldn't help but frown.
As the king of Tianjiang Province, would he expose the entire Jiangling to the enemy for such a trivial matter, disregarding everything else?
Is it really that bad?
Seemingly noticing Wang Hao's confusion, Cheng Yi explained in a low voice, "Jiangling has a special location, being on the border of the Dragon Kingdom, and its development is far behind other cities in Tianjiang Province. Before, the King of Tianjiang... had the intention to abandon Jiangling!"
In previous clashes with Donghai, he intentionally used Jiangling as a buffer zone for war, and incidentally destroyed Jiangling to force the people of Jiangling to relocate!
What you did this time has given him an excuse to abandon Jiangling!
For him, losing Jiangling might not be a bad thing!
After all, Jiangling's economic development in all aspects requires support and coordination from other parts of Tianjiang.
With Jiangling no longer a hindrance, King Tianjiang might actually be happy to see it!
A cold, sinister glint flashed in Wang Hao's eyes.
Wang Hao was well aware that Jiangling, as a small border town, was not highly regarded.
Can……
This is our territory!
He really didn't expect that in the eyes of the King of Tianjiang, even territory could be abandoned!
Wang Hao squinted, his face slightly gloomy and unpleasant.
Yunfeng continued, "Go apologize to King Tianjiang now, and let him do as he pleases. You might still be able to save Jiangling, otherwise..."
Why should I save Jiang Ling?
Wang Hao interrupted Yun Feng with a cold laugh.
Yunfeng's expression froze on his face.
Yes, Wang Hao, why did you save Jiang Ling?
He's not from Jiangling!
He came to Jiangling to seek revenge!
What does the life or death of the people of Jiangling have to do with him?
Yunfeng slumped to the ground, his expression blank, unsure of what to do.
Jiangling is not Wang Hao's home, but it is his home! It is the place where he was born! The place where he lived! The place where his ancestors were buried!
If Jiang Ling is abandoned, what will become of him?
Just as Yunfeng was in pain, Wang Hao spoke again in a leisurely voice.
"But I, Wang Hao, owe no one anything."
Naturally, we won't owe the million people of Jiangling City even a single penny!
After saying that, Wang Hao turned and left!
Cheng Yi quickly followed.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Yunfeng froze on the spot, his mouth agape, unable to utter a word for a long time.
What did Wang Hao mean by that?
If King Tianjiang withdraws his troops, how can he not owe this city something?
...
Back at Cheng Yi's home, Wang Hao didn't say anything more to Cheng Yi.
Cheng Yi knew what he was going to do.
Cheng Yi had no objection to this.
Her junior brother can do whatever he wants.
She, Cheng Yi, should be protected!
But now, night has fallen.
Cheng Yi suddenly received a phone call.
It was her father, Cheng Tengyun, who called.
As the head of the Cheng family, Cheng Tengyun is very successful in Jiangnan and has outstanding abilities.
It was under his leadership that the Cheng family transformed from a third-tier aristocratic family in Jiangnan into a first-tier aristocratic family.
After Cheng Yi was placed in Jiangling, he brought huge benefits to the Cheng family.
It can be said that the father and daughter are the foundation of the Cheng family's current achievements!
When the call connected, Cheng Tengyun's voice sounded very heavy.
"If you return to Jiangnan, something bad is going to happen in Jiangling!"
For Cheng Tengyun, he was willing to give up all the wealth the Cheng family possessed in Jiangling.
But he had to ensure Cheng Yi's safety!
His daughter is not only related to him by blood, but is also one of the most reliable people in the entire Cheng family!
He absolutely cannot lose Cheng Yi!
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yi smiled and shook his head, "Dad, I'm in Jiangling, I'm fine, nothing's wrong."
"Nonsense!"
Cheng Tengyun's face darkened. "Do you know what Jiangling will face next?"
The situation with the Prince of Tianjiang has already...
"Withdrawal of troops, threats, that's all there is to it." Cheng Yi smiled, his expression calm. "The one who offended King Tianjiang is my junior brother, and he's currently at my house."
"If the King of Tianjiang wants to force him... he'll have to get past me first!"
"What?"
Cheng Tengyun was stunned when Cheng Yi said this.
He never imagined that Wang Hao was actually connected to Cheng Yi!
Moreover, it seems that Cheng Yi still wants to protect Wang Hao!
Even if it means... fighting against King Tianjiang!
Cheng Yi appeared very calm. "Father, he's just the King of Tianjiang... not really. He's invincible!"
Don't worry, I'll go home once everything is settled.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Cheng Tengyun was so angry that he trembled all over!
Is the King of Tianjiang truly invincible?
That is the king of the entire Tianjiang!
Not to mention Cheng Yi, even the entire Cheng family is like ants in front of King Tianjiang, utterly vulnerable!
Cheng Yi, how dare you say that?
But Cheng Yi just smiled and said, "Father, for the past three years, you have only asked me to assist the Cheng family in developing in Jiangling. It seems that you have never asked your daughter what she has learned in Yaochi all these years."
You don't know your daughter at all.
After saying that, Cheng Yi hung up the phone.
Cheng Tengyun opened his mouth, unable to speak for a long time.
Sending Cheng Yi to Yaochi to learn martial arts was an opportunity he had fought hard for.
But when Cheng Yi returned three years ago, he didn't take it too seriously.
In his eyes, Yaochi was a paradise on earth, a place where Cheng Yi could learn more knowledge.
Just as Cheng Yi has demonstrated over the past three years, she is capable of becoming one of the Cheng family's pillars.
