Ji Xian asked, "I've never offended or provoked anyone, so who wants to kill me?"
Jeluca said, "It's the Sandworm Mercenary Group. As far as I know, they attacked you once before and suffered heavy losses, with most of them dead. Now it's their remnants attacking you, trying to avenge their boss."
Ji Xian couldn't help but complain, "Why are they from the Sand Silk Mercenary Group again? They're really... like a persistent ghost."
Xia Luoxue asked, "Weren't all the members of the Sand Silk Mercenary Group dead? How come there are still people left?"
Ji Xian shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I'm afraid that the force that came out of the city to chase us that day was not all of their troops. When we checked with the drone, they didn't have 27 people at all. That means there were still people left in the city. The people who attacked me today should be slaves of the Sand Silk Mercenary Group, forced to die with me."
Xia Luoxue immediately understood what was going on, and it was no wonder that those people carrying bombs were dazed and had strange expressions.
That was all because they were forced into it.
Jeruca said, "Yes, but don't worry, I assure you, none of these people will escape!"
Ji Xian smiled and said, "With your guarantee, I feel at ease."
Immediately, Jeluka sniffed the air and, quite rudely, peered into the room, asking, "Mr. Ji Xian, what kind of supplies are here? They smell so good."
Ji Xian chuckled dryly. Since Jeruca had done him such a big favor, he felt bad about not letting Jeruca into the house.
Ji Xian stepped aside and said, "It's a self-heating hot pot. If the city lord is interested, there's no need to be polite."
When Jeruca heard this, he wondered if they were inviting him to dinner.
He had also heard that Ji Xian had treated James to fries and compressed biscuits when they first met, and he never expected that it would be his turn now.
He was so happy that his feet seemed to be greased, and he dashed to the self-heating hot pot in a flash.
Judging from his speed, Ji Xian knew he must have used a lot of gene-enhancing drugs.
Jeruca's eyes widened as he stared intently at the self-heating hot pot in front of him: "This is a self-heating hot pot? It's amazing!"
Tears, uncontrollably, streamed down my face.
Ji Xian handed him chopsticks, and Jeruc immediately picked up some food and started eating.
"Delicious, delicious, nice..."
Jeruca spoke incoherently, his mouth never stopping.
Ji Xian was speechless. This city lord was no different from an ordinary person when it came to food.
When Jemoka saw his brother eating a self-heating hot pot, he was so tempted by the sight that he cried, and tears streamed down his face.
He stared longingly at the portion in Xia Luoxue's hand.
Xia Luoxue immediately realized that Jemoka had ulterior motives and hurriedly protected the self-heating hot pot: "Don't look, Liumang!"
Jemoka: "???"
