Chapter 819: Selling Me

He didn’t even glance at his wound, instead turning to look at the explosion site, which was less than ten meters away from him!

“Yeh Xiao!”

Yeh Hannian shouted angrily, “What’s going on?

Has Li Jian caught up?”

Yeh Xiao spat out a mouthful of dirt hurriedly and was about to speak when suddenly a lazy chuckle interrupted:

“I didn’t blow it up.”

Yeh Hannian’s body stiffened.

Almost instantly upon hearing the voice, he looked in its direction.

Li Jian stood with hands on his hips, his jacket open, his waistline grasped in his hands.

As he moved, the lines of his abs were faintly visible beneath his inner shirt.

A black belt buckle hugged his military trousers tightly against his thighs, and his military boots left riveted footprints in the wet soil.

Countless soldiers stood behind him.

Yeh Hannian looked around, the wind was calm, and there were no other sounds apart from the trees swaying in the breeze.

His heart sank abruptly.

When did the sniper silently climb to his head?

Li Jian bit a cigar, not bothering to remove it while speaking, “But now, you can’t escape.”

Yeh Hannian understood.

Despite all the times he and Li Jian had fought, Li Jian never did anything sneaky.

Even if he did, his tactics were always aboveboard, and Li Jian would always honestly reveal the truth if Yeh Hannian asked.

“Is it my fifth uncle?” he asked Yeh Xiao.

Yeh Xiao also looked grim, but more so in fear, “Yeh Xing was watching, he told me last night that your fifth uncle had already arrived in Mingzhou.”

What was going on then?

He had many enemies, but confronting him directly and risking exposing their location to blow him up seemed both foolish and upfront, which made Yeh Hannian unable to think of anyone other than his fifth uncle.

Li Jian kindly enlightened him: “It’s your fifth uncle’s people.

He left trusted aides here to ambush you, but don’t worry, I’ve already caught them.”

After saying that, Li Jian took the cigar from his mouth and exhaled a thick white smoke, his lips tilted slightly in a half-constrained smile, “Only you are left.”

Yeh Hannian knew his chances of survival were slim.

He closed his eyes briefly, his hand hanging by his side clenched and then released, bringing a moment of clarity to his mind.

His gaze brushed over Nan Jiaojiao, a subtle look, before finally landing on White Fox.

“It has nothing to do with them.

If you want to catch someone, catch me.”

“You’re pretty loyal.”

Yeh Hannian laughed coldly without fear, “Say that again.

We’ve been battling each other for so many years.

Surely, you must know what kind of person I am.”

Li Jian clicked his tongue and sighed regretfully, “What a pity, not used for the right path.”

If he’d met him earlier, when Yeh Hannian hadn’t risen to power, Li Jian might have lent him a helping hand out of admiration for his talent.

He turned around to face the members of the Killing Alliance, hardly noticing Nan Jiaojiao, only because she was standing behind White Fox, barely catching his gaze.

Having had little contact with the Killing Alliance, just a fleeting glimpse last time at the top floor with Minglun, this was his second encounter here.

According to his intuition, considering he usually stood at the front himself, it seemed that White Fox was the one with the most authority.

He said, “I’ve fulfilled my promise to you.

I’ve allowed you to come this far.

From here on, if you enter his territory, catching people will become difficult.”

White Fox nodded, “Thank you.”

Li Jian waved his hand with a laid-back demeanor.

“What do you mean?”

Yeh Hannian suddenly felt his scalp tightening, staring unblinkingly at White Fox, but his gaze was continually drawn to Nan Jiaojiao, unable to distinguish if it was disappointment or pain.

“Betray me?”

He wasn’t stupid.

The reputation of Killing Alliance was as bad as Mingzhou, equally hated.

Yet Li Jian only targeted him, sparing the Killing Alliance and others.

No, not sparing, they seemed more like one group!
