A figure in a black cloak appeared, his hoarse voice asking Geng Yuepeng with interest.
Geng Yuepeng no longer felt humiliated. He was no match for his enemy, that was a fact. Now he just wanted to know who his opponent was!
Why are there so many strange and bizarre things that, while not fatal, severely wear down one's willpower?
How did he come to have this feud with them?
However, he probably guessed that he must have killed or injured someone else, which led to the bloodshed and the vicious revenge he suffered!
He knew that day would come, so he made many preparations in case such a situation occurred. Unfortunately, he still couldn't predict the future!
What's meant to happen will happen eventually, it's just a matter of time!
This time he was too hasty and too eager to succeed, without considering many things, and fell into someone else's trap!
However, the opponent is indeed very strong, and they never intended to let him go. He won't be able to escape many times!
He regretted it. He almost never took action himself anymore, and mostly sent people to do it, just because he didn't want to give his enemies the chance to kill him!
Because he knew he had too many enemies, too many people who wanted to kill him, and he couldn't possibly defend against them all. As long as he showed up, there would definitely be a lot of people rushing over, all with the aim of taking his life!
That was too impulsive!
But you can't entirely blame him!
The Misty Rain Pavilion is now shrouded in mist and rain, its future uncertain. As the number of staff inside decreases, people's hearts are also wavering. Their authority over him is constantly weakening, and they have become suspicious of him!
That's right, he suspected there was a traitor, a mole, otherwise the secrets of the Misty Rain Pavilion wouldn't have been destroyed so easily!
He had been planning and deploying defenses for many years, and nothing had happened. In fact, the defenses had grown stronger and stronger. Now, they had declined overnight. It was definitely not a problem with management decisions. He would never believe it!
He knows better than anyone what he's doing; outsiders can't easily find out what's going on inside!
There was a traitor within the organization at some point, so he could trust very few people, and now it could be said that he had almost none!
Because the person he trusted most had already been killed by him!
Without anyone he could trust, and seeing his subordinates as all suspicious, how could he dare entrust such an important task to them?
Not only would we fail, but we'd also reveal all our plans to the other side beforehand – wouldn't that be disastrous?
So, after much thought, there was no other way but for him to personally take action; that would be the safest option!
All he wanted was to find a good marriage for his daughter so she could live a happy and fulfilling life. Why was that so difficult?
It's just one wish, not a big deal, so why are there so many difficulties and people blocking his way everywhere!
He can no longer live in the sunlight, and his daughter's identity also has limitations. It's not wrong for his daughter to want to live a glamorous life!
He also wanted to do everything in his power to push his daughter to the top and let her enjoy all the glory that came with it!
He didn't do anything wrong!
It's all the fault of this Prince of Jingnan who doesn't know what's good for him. His daughter is not bad, just of low status, but she is very beautiful and could be a prince's wife!
Why must we insist on marrying someone of equal social standing, and why must we marry the legitimate daughter of a marquis?
Why would you change your mind after setting a wedding date?
He just wanted to teach the Prince of Jingnan another lesson and show him how to behave. As long as the prince continued to lie down until after the wedding, he would have the officials he was cooperating with put some pressure on him, and nothing would be impossible!
He has no choice but to be anxious; the longer it drags on, the worse it will be for his daughter!
The whole capital knows that the daughter's engagement has been broken off, but the reason has not yet been revealed. There is still a chance to salvage the situation, and it is better to do it sooner rather than later!
But the more anxious you are, the less likely you are to come up with a foolproof plan, and the easier it is to fall into someone else's trap!
The other party really wanted Geng Yuepeng to be as anxious as possible. Once his mind was in disarray, he would lose his composure and reveal many clues!
This is a golden opportunity!
Because Geng Yuepeng is hard to find, it is not an easy task to find him, especially when he is out.
"Who exactly are you?"
Geng Yuepeng was covered in blood, but it was hard to see clearly in the darkness. The only thing that could be sensed from his painful breathing was how weak he was.
How can I not be weak?
They were ganged up on and strangled, so there probably wasn't much good flesh left on their bodies. However, although they had many knife wounds, none of them were fatal, so they wouldn't die immediately.
The other party did this on purpose, so that he could experience firsthand what it felt like to be beaten to a pulp!
Dying is too easy, not exciting enough. Being half-dead is much more exciting!
The black cloak blended seamlessly into the night, and if no one spoke, no one would know that someone was there.
Does it matter who I am? I have a blood feud with you, and that's enough for you to know!
The black cloak did not inform Geng Yuepeng, which angered Geng Yuepeng. He thought that a murderer should at least leave a name!
"Why would you need to leave your name? When you did bad things, did you ever tell anyone about your 'Big Treasure' account? Did you tell their relatives that you were the one who caused their harm, so they could seek revenge? No, right? Then you'd better not have that expectation!"
The man in the black cloak spoke without any politeness, causing Geng Yuepeng to cough repeatedly. Each cough aggravated his wounds, making him grimace in pain. When he broke out in a cold sweat, the pain was so intense that his veins bulged!
That's what he said, but deep down Geng Yuepeng still wanted to know. He did have other plans. If he knew who the other person was, and he managed to escape and survive, he could find someone to take revenge!
"Don't worry, you won't die! This injury is nothing to you, it's a piece of cake, it'll heal completely in no time! You've weathered so many storms, this is nothing! I don't want to kill you today, because I'm a really good person! Not only will I not kill you, I'm giving you a big gift! You don't need to thank me! You'll soon experience the benefits of my gift!"
The black-cloaked voice was hoarse, and in the quiet night, especially in the wilderness, its eerie tone made it all the more chilling.
Geng Yuepeng never believed in extravagant gifts. He wasn't stupid; why would an enemy send him a gift out of kindness?
Nobody would believe that even if you beat them to death!
That grand gift is probably not the real gift that ordinary people talk about!
There's a trap waiting for him!
What a nice person! Ugh!
Despicable scoundrel!
They don't even dare to reveal their true identities, they only dare to be arrogant in the dark!
"Don't be angry! Getting angry will ruin your health and make it harder to get out of here! By the way, the night is the domain of wild beasts, and where you are should be their territory! Save your energy and make a good escape later! See! I'm such a kind person! You really don't need to thank me!"
The man in the black cloak spoke cheerfully, saying that if one could see his face, he would look like a kind person, and gave Geng Yuepeng a heads-up.
Geng Yuepeng looked around, his back teeth almost grinding to powder. What a great guy!
"Hey! Your men aren't quite dead yet. Pull them up and let them shield you! Or, how about I give them the antidote? That seems like a good idea!"
