Chapter 1144: Sir, You’ve Misunderstood
“Too shameless!” The bearded man cursed in disdain.
Ling Chuxi looked at the bearded man. Was there such a tough guy among them? Soon, she realized that she wondered for nothing.
“Huh? They’re shameless? How about you then?” Zhang Yuhong touched his chin and looked at the bearded guy thoughtfully as his slightly narrowed eyes shot out a dangerous light.
“Sir, you have misunderstood. When I said that they were shameless, it was mainly in reference to how long it has taken them to realize their mistake. This subordinate had long known his own and opposed their shameless behaviour from the beginning! In fact, this subordinate was coerced into joining them! If it wasn’t for the fact that this subordinate’s wife and two children were in their hands, this subordinate would not have done such a treacherous thing…” the bearded man’s s.h.i.+vered as he sweat and cried.
“You’re the despicable and shameless one!” Wu Tianlang and the others cursed in unison.
Everyone in Huifeng Ridge knew that this guy was single. If he truly had a wife and two children, who knew where he actually came from?
But the others were inspired by the bearded man’s actions and started to cry as if their own fathers had died as they rushed towards Ling Chuxi. Now, they were all fighting to show their loyalty. But the way they behaved only made Ling Chuxi’s mouth twitch.
“You guys have a lot of guts to come back for revenge,” said Ling Chuxi calmly.
“No, no, my Lady. We would never dare. But we were all coerced by Poison King Fu and Qiu Yisha,” said Wu Tianlang and the others in trepidation and fear. They had long been scared out of their wits by Huangfu Qingjue’s sword attack, the poison, and getting beaten up by Zhang Yuhong and the others. They just wished they were dead.
“Forced? Hmph!” Ling Chuxi responded coldly.
Gongxi Kuangdao, Zhang Yuhong, and the others took another step forward.
“My Lady, if he hadn’t invited Poison King Fu and Qiu Yisha to threaten us, we wouldn’t have dared to come even if we were given a hundred guts,” said Wu Tianlang as he pointed at Liu Qingfeng. He was so scared that his legs and stomach were trembling.
“Right, right. If he hadn’t invited Poison King Fu and Qiu Yisha to kill us, we wouldn’t have dared to seek our own deaths.” The others also followed suit and pointed at Liu Qingfeng.
They could handle the physical pain. But if they angered the leader of Sword Heart Gang, they would probably be tortured to death by Gongxi Kuangdao and Zhang Yuhong. They couldn’t care less about their loyalty anymore. They needed to first push out Liu Qingfeng. Sacrifice one for the happiness of the others. Of course, they were the ones who were happy. It had nothing to do with Liu Qingfeng.
“You… you…” Liu Qingfeng didn’t expect them to sell him out like this. He was so angry that his whole body started trembling.
“Boss Liu, don’t worry. We will set up a memorial arch for you. We will burn paper money for you on the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year as well,” said Wu Tianlang in a low voice.
“Get lost!” Liu Qingfeng cursed angrily. If Ling Chuxi wasn’t right in front of him, he would have kicked Wu Tianlang out.
“You’re quite capable to even be able to invite these two people.” Even if Wu Tianlang and the others did not say anything, Ling Chuxi had already learned everything about Poison King Fu and Qiu Yisha from Lei Wanshan. Though she was also a little curious: How did Liu Qingfeng invite someone who could not even be ordered around by Thousand Kills Gang and Broken Moon Gang? Moreover, the two forces were not on good terms with each other. It was impossible for the two of them to join forces.
