Chapter 341 - I’ll Strike
Everyone fled in panic. Su Zimo hung around the back and was able to prevent the attacks of the Blood Centipedes.
In reality, the moment the Blood Centipede King appeared, Night Spirit’s eyes shone with a murderous killing intent and it even harbored thoughts of turning around to fight the Blood Centipede King.
However, Su Zimo did not wish to get entangled with those poisonous creatures at this place and gestured for Night Spirit to just protect Xiaoning.
Most importantly, it was because Su Zimo was wary about someone else.
Jiang Yu!
In theory, Su Zimo should not be suspicious of the commander that was designated by the Emperor of Great Zhou.
However, through their interactions, Su Zimo was certain that there was something wrong with this person!
Su Zimo ran on the ground. Under the gravel not far ahead, two big bags surfaced and another swarm of Blood Centipedes were about to emerge.
“Hmm?”
Ji Yaoxue paused for a moment and raised her brow, looking perplexed. “Even though we suffered heavy casualties, it was an accident and we can’t blame it on Jiang Yu entirely. Furthermore, he was at the ancient battlefield 10 years ago and made it back alive. Father also designated him as the commander. I don’t think there should be a problem?”
“The problem is precisely because he has been to the ancient battlefield before.”
Su Zimo replied, “Given his experience, there’s no way he couldn’t tell that there was something wrong with those corpses. However, he allowed the others to pick up the storage bags. Furthermore…”
Pausing for a moment, he continued, “After discovering those corpses, he did not continue moving forward!”
Ji Yaoxue was extremely smart and instantly realized that something was amiss as well.
Su Zimo said in a low voice, “In fact, I’m suspecting that he was deliberately letting them die so as to weaken the strength of the team.”
“But what motive does he have for doing that? What does he stand to gain from that?” Ji Yaoxue could not understand.
Su Zimo shook his head. “I don’t know either.”
“How about we join forces to suppress and interrogate him right now?”
Right after she said that, Ji Yaoxue shook her head to her own suggestion and frowned. “No, everyone’s tired and worn out right now. Furthermore, Jiang Yu has the highest cultivation realm and we won’t be able to restrain him even with our combined strength.”
Suddenly, Ji Yaoxue realized a horrifying fact.
If there was truly something wrong with Jiang Yu, no one would be his match given his strength as a six meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivator!
“If you’re agreeable, I’ll strike to take him down!”
Right then, Su Zimo’s voice rang out, his tone casual and indifferent.
However, for some reason, his words made Ji Yaoxue’s initially uneasy heart calm down instantly.
