Chapter 274
Chu Yunsheng has never seen Ning Zhitong’s real power before, so he did not know if Luo Hengshen and Cao Zhengyi could stop Ning Zhitong from escaping or not. He just hoped that they could stall the man until he sorted out of the bomb problem.
Originally, Luo Hengshen did not want to fight Ning Zhitong. Among them, Cao Zhengyi was the castellan, so he should be the one in charge of this. However, before Chu Yunsheng ran into the food storage, he ordered him specifically. So he could not avoid this fight.
From the information Luo Hengshen had about Ning Zhitong, he believed that Ning Zhitong should not be more powerful than him. However, he had the fire messenger’s sword, so although he might not be able to kill them, there wouldn’t be a problem for him to stall them there.
“Second General, since we worked together, we’ve never had any conflicts, have we?” Surprisingly, Ning Zhitong didn’t attempt to run away after he ignited the fuse. Instead, he was talking calmly to Luo Hengshen.
“You want to instigate me to join you?” Luo Hengshen’s face twitched and then let out a hollow laugh.
“Second General, you are a smart man, and I respect that. With your intelligence, it shouldn’t be hard for you to understand the situation now!” Ning Zhitong complimented.
“No, I don’t understand,” Luo Hengshen stopped laughing and said sternly.
“No, you do understand! And it is even more clear to you than to me!” Ning Zhitong shook his head and said.
“Oh, what makes you say that?” Luo Hengshen took a quick glance at the entrance of storage and said.
“Okay, if you don’t want to say it. I’ll do it for you! Although I don’t know why you are still worried, it doesn’t really matter now. I’ll tell you, and I’ll make your worries go away,” Ning Zhitong waved his hand then carried on, “why do you think Yuan Hongxue wants to kill Lei Ming and Fu Hanbiao? Why?”
Luo Hengshen stared at him coldly, but he didn’t answer his question. Cao Zhengyi held his breath, and didn’t dare to make a sound.
“Join the enemy? Betrayal? Working in collusion with the castle of Snowstorm? Hahaha…!” Ning Zhitong suddenly laughed out loud, “Lei Ming was already a castellan, why would he want to betray his own castle? You may ask any person in the castle. Who would ever believe in this kind of bullshit excuse!”
“We both are not stupid, especially Second General, you, I dare you say that you don’t know why he wants to do it. He wants power, he wants the control of the whole castle, so your brother Lei Ming must die! And you know why he kept you alive, not your brother Fu Hanbiao!”
Luo Hengshen smiled, “that, I don’t really know.”
“Luo Hengshen, I’m trying to help you. And you are still playing a game with me. Do you really think Yuan Hongxue will keep you alive after he uses you? He killed your brothers…” Ning Zhitong was slightly angry.
“Ning Zhitong I know what you are saying, and why you want me to join you. So stop pretending that you are a good man,” Luo Hengshen said, there was even a trace of disgust appearing on his face.
“Okay, I know that you have secretly stored the food somewhere else. Since you don’t want to join me, I hope you can stand aside and don’t get involved in this!” Ning Zhitong sneered.
“Why would I do that?” Luo Hengshen took another quick glance at the storage and said.
“Why would you?! Because you helped to build this cage. Because your brothers Lei Ming and Fu Hanbiao used this place to torture people. So watching this place being burned to the ground is the only way to redeem yourself from what you three brothers have done!” Ning Zhitong’s face was distorted and grotesque with twisted expressions of anger and hatred. His eyes bloodshot and his teeth gnashed in rage.
“Don’t you forget that you are also a high-level slaveholder! You are in no position to judge us…” Luo Hengshen knew this man was right. However, he still didn’t like a person who did the same thing as them to criticize them.
“Fuck this high-level slaveholder, do you think I fucking care!? My life was saved by ordinary people when I almost died of hunger. If it weren’t for the fact that they were trapped here, do you think I would stay here?!” Ning Zhitong cursed.
Then Ning Zhitong took out a strange weapon from his backpack and said, “Luo Hengshen, I don’t know why you are scared. But There is a reason why I dare to come here to destroy food storage. Think about it, the castle is already in such a mess, why is there only Yuan Hongxue here? Where is the fire messenger?… I can tell you, that the fire messenger is heavily injured, and he might even be dead soon. He doesn’t have time to take care of the castle. So, if you want, come with me to the castle of Snowstorm, there are still a lot of people that need to be saved!”
Luo Hengshen instinctively stepped back. He was shocked, and he didn’t know if he should trust this man or not.
“You don’t believe me? Look at this weapon. This weapon was given to me by the senior ice messenger. And the information I just told you was also given by her in person. Do you want to see the power of this gun?” Ning Zhitong adjusted the gun and said. Then he pointed at Cao Zhengyi and suddenly fired the shot without any hesitation.
“Puff…”
A white beam suddenly appeared and flew past him.
Cao Zhengyi was scared, he didn’t even know how to react. When he came back from the shock, he realised that he was held in the air by someone from his back, and the wall behind him had already frozen.
It was Chu Yunsheng who had just come back after he froze the entire food storage.
When he arrived at the entrance of the food storage, he instantly recognized the weapon that Ning Zhitong was holding, it was the freeze gun!
And with Cao Zhengyi’s strength, he definitely wouldn’t be able to stop the attack. So he instantly rushed to save Cao Zhengyi.
“I’ll not kill you. Because you all just hate Lei Ming and his men. Drop your weapon then you can leave freely. You have only one chance!” Chu Yunsheng threw Cao Zhengyi back into the food storage and said.
Ning Zhitong didn’t know why the storage hadn’t exploded, and he didn’t see how Chu Yunsheng saved Cao Zhengyi. But he wasn’t scared, because he was confident that the weapon he had would kill this old man.
“Puff…”
Ning Zhitong didn’t answer Chu Yunsheng, instead, he fired another shot.
“Brothers, don’t be scared. We have the Ice messenger’s gun, Let’s kill him!” Ning Zhitong shouted, and then quickly moved back behind the group and started to aim the gun at Chu Yunsheng.
Chu Yunsheng respected those people. He knew that those people were good men. That was why he offered them a choice. However, he was also not a saint, those people clearly did not want to leave this place without achieving something.
