Chapter 135
…
The wind was howling and the snow was flying.
The small group of people led by Xikai E Peizhen, who were just at a disadvantage and on the verge of being wiped out, immediately experienced a reversal of events after Huo Qi's reinforcements arrived.
Looking through the window of the mecha, Jing Li laughed coldly as he watched his men being defeated one by one, either dead or seriously injured and captured. Then he looked at the two groups of people outside who had almost blocked his way.
He knew full well why Huo Qi Rex and Yin Jiuyuan hadn't attacked him; it was simply because he had the little fool Mu Jiao at his disposal. He hadn't expected them to stop fighting so quickly, reach an agreement, and join forces to deal with him.
Surrounded by so many people, Jing Li showed no sign of panic. He looked out with deep eyes, thinking calmly:
Given the current situation, it's likely that Yin Jiuyuan has long suspected Mu Jiao of poisoning Yin Shiwei and has been secretly investigating. This way, he'll probably soon discover that he's a hidden spy deployed by the Jing family on Frost Star. It's unclear whether he'll suspect Yin Shiwei as well. If so, that would be quite exciting. He's eagerly anticipating a chaotic battle between the three major families in the Swamp Region.
Even if Yin Shiwei hadn't been discovered, it wouldn't have mattered. Once Yin Jiuyuan found out, a bloodbath would surely ensue between the Orcs and the Jing Clan. Considering his so-called "brothers and relatives," the Jing Clan had long since weakened from generation to generation. While they could maintain a semblance of prestige, employing shady tactics to profit and harm others, if they came to blows, they wouldn't be able to defeat this shrewd and capable leader of the Orcs. Considering the Jing Clan's decline, could his so-called "brothers and relatives" still hold their heads high and live on?
The moment his mother died, he no longer cared about obtaining the so-called identity of the young master of the Jing family. The funny thing was that his so-called "father" used this as an inducement for him to fight for the Jing family again.
Mu Jiao's appearance was an accident, and discovering that the "secret liquid" she made was effective in treating gene collapse disease was also an accident. However, it had little impact on his plan, except that it was a little bit too early.
His original intention was to stir up conflict between the Orcs and the Jing and She clans, forcing them to fight and consume each other. However, his original plan was to start with Yin Shiwei, revealing Yin Shiwei's identity and spreading the news that the Jing and She clans were working together to deal with the Yin family. However, plans couldn't keep up with changes, and he met Mu Jiao...
Fortunately, the result was not a problem. It was just that they had not had time to deal with Yin Shiwei, and it was unclear whether the next battle in the swamp would be a two-way battle or a three-way melee.
As for Huo Qi Rex, Jing Li knew very little about him. He only heard that he was once a genius-level talent, a combat commander, and that his early campaigns played a significant role in the current war between the Empire and the interstellar worlds. However, he was now a sickly person suffering from genetic collapse syndrome.
He was just a sickly guy who risked his life to come to the harsh swamp and even broke into the orcs' base camp to save the little fool Mu Jiao. Maybe he knew that Mu Jiao had the "secret liquid" to treat gene collapse disease!
"Listen up, people on the mecha. As long as you hand over Miss Mu Jiao unharmed, we will not only let you and your men go, but we will also pay you a sum of energy stones..." Just when Jing Li was about to finish his analysis, there was movement outside.
"Little idiot, I didn't expect you to be so valuable!!" Listening to the voices outside, Jing Li glanced at Mu Jiao in the passenger seat and teased.
However, Mu Jiao was feeling dizzy at the moment, and her head was buzzing no matter what she heard. Naturally, she couldn't hear what Jing Li said clearly. Mu Jiao could only remain silent...
