with such a huge rock, not to mention a person, even a big bear would be crushed into meat paste.

it was too late for leng tiannan to go over. he could only roar in suppressed pain. “rui’er—”

just as the big rock was about to roll up, an iron rod flew over and stabbed into the ground with the power of the wind!

the big stone ball was blocked shakily and was only half a step away from leng rui and the others.

leng tiannan felt as if he had died once. his heart skipped a beat!

he looked at the wooden stick that had saved leng rui in disbelief and realized that there was a chain on the other end of the wooden stick.

he turned along the chain and saw the girl sitting on the rock.

the girl held the chain in one hand and a little bear in the other with a satisfied expression.

leng tiannan subconsciously wanted to walk over, but a big black bear suddenly jumped out from behind the girl.

leng tiannan had seen this black bear before. it was a poisonous creature of the white lotus society and was very powerful.

strange, why was this girl with the poisonous creature of the white lotus society?

where was the cage on the poisonous creature’s head? where was the chain around its neck?

countless doubts flashed across his mind as a bold guess surged into his mind. leng tiannan asked warily, “are you from the white lotus society?”

su xiaoxiao smiled. “why? do you think everyone in the world is a thief because you’re guilty?”

leng tiannan’s expression darkened. “what nonsense are you talking about? you’re the one who’s suspicious. if you’re not from the white lotus society, why are you with the poisonous creature of the white lotus society?”

su xiaoxiao wouldn’t be led by the nose. “if you want to continue talking nonsense with me, i won’t care when the people from the white lotus society rush over. it’s not a big deal if i escape. you still have a son to save.”

leng tiannan’s expression darkened again.

the previous time, he had fought with this girl and let her cheat him of many valuable things. at that time, he knew that this girl who grew up in the countryside was not as simple as she looked. seeing it today, he was even more certain of his guess.

he glanced at leng zhiruo.

su xiaoxiao smiled faintly. “why are you looking at her? don’t think that just because she’s in the same class as me, i’ll let your son off for her sake. at the end of the day, i’m not very familiar with her.”

leng zhiruo remained silent.

leng tiannan retracted his gaze and continued to look at su xiaoxiao. “how much silver do you want?”

“everything,” su xiaoxiao said.

leng tiannan said coldly, “as the daughter of the protector duke, aren’t you afraid of embarrassing the protector duke?”

su xiaoxiao smiled and said, “what’s there to be embarrassed about if i earn money with my ability? or does general leng think your lives aren’t worth this bit of money?”

leng tiannan clenched his fists.

su xiaoxiao said, “hurry up. this iron rod won’t last long.”

this weapon was plundered from the courtyard of the medicine master of the western jin dynasty. it was quite useful.

leng tiannan looked at the swaying iron rod and handed over the banknotes on him unwillingly.

he did not bring much this time.

the deputy generals did not have much value.

on the other hand, leng zhiruo quietly brought an ancestral jade pendant with her.

“stop hiding! i want that jade pendant! i want it! throw it over!”

su xiaoxiao made another killing.

“can you let him go now?” leng tiannan said.

“sure, but you have to answer me a question first.”

“don’t push your luck!”

su xiaoxiao tugged at the chain in her hand.

leng tiannan’s eyebrows twitched. “stop! ”

su xiaoxiao said, “i want to know the truth four years ago. are you related to the death of the wei family? don’t be in a hurry to deny it. think about your son’s life.”

leng tiannan clenched his fists.

su xiaoxiao looked straight at him, her sharp gaze impossible to avoid. “you were the one who revealed the whereabouts of wei xu and his sons to northern yan, right?”

leng tiannan clenched his fists.

su xiaoxiao said, “looks like it. why did you harm the wei family?”

leng tiannan said, “i didn’t want to harm them! i…”

su xiaoxiao looked at him and said, “what is it? you fell into northern yan’s trap and accidentally revealed their whereabouts. then why didn’t you send troops to reinforce them? let me tell you. it’s because the wei family didn’t tell you about their actions. you eavesdropped. then, you revealed it to northern yan by a freak combination of factors. if you had sent troops to reinforce them, it will expose the fact that you eavesdropped. therefore, you pretended not to know and used northern yan to kill wei xu. it’s best if you also killed a few of his sons. there’s only one young top scholar, wei ting. you didn’t think he can be considered a big shot. this way, you can inherit the wei family’s army openly.”

leng tiannan gritted his teeth. “i thought they could escape danger! you haven’t seen wei xu before. you don’t know how powerful he is! he can completely break out of the northern yan army with his sons! i don’t understand how they died! i admit that i had selfish motives, but i definitely don’t want to kill them. i just… i just want wei xu to be slightly injured. then, i can take over the military power and attack northern yan. i want to make a contribution, but as long as wei xu can still go to the battlefield, i won’t have a chance to lead the army! is there anything wrong with my actions? how am i inferior to wei xu?! just because i’m not as rich as him, i have to be suppressed by him all the time! have you asked me if i’m willing?!”

since the truth had been exposed, there was nothing to hide.

leng tiannan straightened his back. “i’ve said everything i need to say. if you want to report me to his majesty, go ahead! can you let my son go now?”

su xiaoxiao threw the chain to leng tiannan.

killing intent flashed across leng tiannan’s eyes.

when he saved his son, he would…

he went forward and pulled leng rui out.

he suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

he turned around abruptly.

su xiaoxiao had unsheathed her bow.

she smiled and fired an arrow at the iron rod!

the iron rod fell, and the huge rock suddenly rolled down toward leng tiannan and leng rui…

on the other side, mo guiyuan entered the underground secret room.

from time to time, fighting sounded from the ground. it was the experts of the imperial court fighting the shadow guards of the white lotus society.

mo guiyuan could no longer say that everything was under his control.

logically speaking, he had the medicine master of the western jin dynasty and slave xiu in his hands. unless the imperial court sent troops to surround him, no one could do anything to him.

however, the medicine master of the western jin died just like that..

this was a heavy blow to him.

he could tell that it was impossible for wei ting to submit to him.

wei ting only had hatred in his heart and could not be used and roped in.

in that case, there was no need for him to show mercy.

footsteps came from outside the iron door. zhang feng glanced through the hole. “it’s slave xiu.”

mo guiyuan said, “let him in.”

zhang feng pulled down the mechanism and opened the iron door.

slave xiu stepped in.

mo guiyuan asked, “did you kill wei ting?”

slave xiu said, “no.”

mo guiyuan said coldly, “why didn’t you kill him? don’t tell me you missed again!”

slave xiu paused. “i can’t kill him..”
