2244 You traitor

Even though they possessed four t.i.tan factions like the Nie family, the Ji family, the Ling family, and Prison, along with a knockoff Rose of Death…

They were nothing in the face of the entire Independent State.

“Captain!!!”

Several voices were heard from the back.

Ye Wanwan got a good look at the newcomers and saw that it was Taoist Devotee and Spray of Flowers leading several dozen mercenary squads that were under Nameless Nie.

“Captain! You came back alive? Why aren't you dead?” Spray of Flowers emotionally wiped his tears and snot.

Ye Wanwan looked at Nameless Nie, astonished. “They… didn't know your plan?”

Nameless Nie shook his head. “This is a personal matter—why would I have dragged them into it?”

“Then you're truly a good captain…” Ye Wanwan responded.

“We heard everything, Captain. All of us support you. If anyone touches a strand of your hair today, we'll make them unable to compensate for it even if they become bankrupt!” Brick-moving Foreigner shouted.

“Captain, you concealed yourself really deep. I didn't detect anything strange despite being by your side all these years.” Feng Xuanyi walked toward Nameless Nie as he lit a cigarette and puffed out a drag of smoke.

Back then, the Ling family thought Nameless Nie suffered a psychological shock and lived every day in a muddled state, as he had a vastly different personality than before. That was why they sent Feng Xuanyi to Nameless Nie.

Hence, Feng Xuanyi hadn't thought about it too deeply.

“Captain, why do you want to destroy the Independent State?” Taoist Devotee looked at Nameless Nie with a peculiar and uncomprehending expression.

Before Nameless Nie could respond, Feng Xuanyi shook his head and said, “Quack, you're wrong—Nameless Nie doesn't want to destroy the Independent State. He merely wants to make those factions who partic.i.p.ated in the murder pay the price. Moreover, the most important point is that Nameless Nie wants to reform the Independent State and shed the ancient pa.s.sed-down rules.”

“Rules?” Taoist Devotee was startled.

“Heh…” Feng Xuanyi smiled. “Every leader of the Rose of Death has existed for the sake of overturning the Independent State's rules and system. Since Ling Miao was the previous leader of the Rose of Death, I think Nameless Nie really wants to fulfill Ling Miao's wish from when she was alive. Of course, it's not only for Ling Miao's sake. Ling Miao wasn't a citizen of the Independent State; her ancestors merely had some relations to the Ling family, so even if Ling Miao didn't die, Nameless Nie and Ling Miao absolutely wouldn't be able to be together with rules like this in the Independent State.”

Taoist Devotee nodded. “So it's like that… I understand. One last question… who's Ling Miao?”

Taoist Devotee, Spray of Flowers, and the others didn't know about Nameless Nie's romantic history and definitely didn't know anything about Ling Miao.

Feng Xuanyi glanced at Taoist Devotee and didn't respond.

Feng Xuanyi turned to Nameless Nie and said, “Nameless Nie, I didn't expect you to be so deep. What surprises me more is that you actually want to reform the Independent State.”

Spray of Flowers fixed his eyes on Feng Xuanyi. Feng Xuanyi's sense of justice and responsibility was the strongest amongst them.

Furthermore, Captain's current method seemed to make him an enemy of the entire Independent State. Judging from Feng Xuanyi's att.i.tude, he appeared to disagree with Captain.

“Feng Xuanyi, why are you talking so much c.r.a.p? If you're afraid, then scram!” Taoist Devotee looked at Feng Xuanyi and said irritatedly, “Captain used to give us everything he had, but you're actually betraying us at the key moment, you traitor!”
