Chapter 148: True Friend

Leona had come in a carriage.

The old butler acted as the coachman. The girl sat in the carriage and sulked. Kang De and Hong San rode in front to lead the way. Leona stuck her head out of the window and looked at Kang De’s back. She said hatefully, “Aren’t you afraid that we’ll run away?”

Kang De turned around and said, “Don’t be afraid. The city is under martial law and the city gate is closed. Where can you run to? Moreover, you’re from the Vidal Chamber of Commerce and you’re a strong force the mayor pointed out to capture. If you run, the mayor will definitely be even more anxious than me and will definitely find you. Therefore, no matter where you run, you’ll be hacked to death by me in the end.”

For some reason, every time the girl saw Kang De like this, she was really angry. Her mentality completely exploded. No matter how she looked at him, she did not like him. “Why would your wife like you?!”

Kang De shrugged and did not answer. He thought to himself, I don’t know either.

After all, other than being honest, reliable, gentle, simple, indomitable, handsome, calm, and knowledgeable, the only good thing about him was that his little brother was huge.

From the beginning to the end, the words “Kang De” and “Tina” did not appear in their conversation. This was a form of tacit caution, right? This was because the probability of these two names appearing in Goethe was very, very high recently.

Leona said maliciously, “You must have used the evil Eastern martial arts to bewitch her, right?”

Kang De raised the reins and pushed his legs back. The horse under him obediently slowed down and arrived at the side of the carriage. He turned around and smiled evilly at the girl in the window.

“That’s right. She was poisoned by my Nine Heavens Ten Earths Flower Trap. This martial art can make the victim fall head over heels in love with the person who cast the spell. From then on, she’ll be loyal and devoted. Her legs will be completely open. Moreover, her personality will change drastically. She’ll become tolerant and gentle, never jealous, and willing to share her husband with other women…”

He blinked and smiled, “Girl, I think you’re quite beautiful…”

It had to be said that the current Kang De’s acting skills had really improved. Or rather, art came from life. If he entered the entertainment industry now and specialized in acting as an antagonist and lunatic, he would probably be able to take over Teacher Feng Yuanzheng’s banner and become the target of the new generation of online legal advisory.

After all, with such real experience, no acting skill could compare.

Leona was clearly frightened and fell back, letting out a small scream. Then, she realized that she had been tricked. How could there be such a convenient martial art in the world?

She was furious and snapped, “You!”

Kang De laughed loudly and rode forward to Hong San’s side.

Only the girl was left stomping her feet hatefully in the carriage and saying nonsense like “run him down” that would definitely not be carried out by the old butler.

When the old butler saw all this, not only was he not angry that his master had been offended, but he was also a little gratified. Heaven had pity on him, but there was actually someone who could control such a strange young lady.

It was not easy.

He felt that it was a pity. Such a person was clearly a good match for Miss. He had the ability, the means, and the intelligence. He also looked upright. Most importantly, he could suppress Miss Leona and stop her from doing some unseemly things… Unfortunately, Princess Tina beat her to it.

Kang De did not know that the old butler was thinking about this.

In fact, teasing that woman was only convenient. He was skeptical of the other party’s words and was not convinced. Compared to Leona, the person he paid more attention to… was Hong San.

When he teased Leona just now, Kang De had spoken loudly and even made up the name of that long and strange cultivation technique. To the people of Cathay, it would definitely be very interesting. However, when he urged his horse back again, Hong San still walked forward in silence with a straight face and no smile.

In fact, after hearing the mayor’s assigned mission from the meeting, he had been depressed and silent. He no longer had any of his usual optimism and cheerfulness. He had just confronted the old butler and attacked without hesitation. He was no longer his usual cowardly self. Kang De knew that Hong San’s heart was probably in chaos.

“Hey.”

He said, “Are you alright?”

Hong San’s reaction was clearly half a beat slower. He said in a daze, “Ah? What?”

Kang De shook his head and said nothing.

He knew what Hong San was thinking now and could understand the other party’s hesitant and complicated emotions.

Not long ago, the mayor had summoned him. He had left under pairs of dependent, trusting, and eager gazes. The people he protected yearned for protection again. However, what the people did not know was that the leader they admired and followed was not as omnipotent as they thought. In the face of stronger and colder power, Hong San could not resist or refute.

1,600 spots.

Men, women, and old people had to face the battlefield.

This was the answer that Hong San brought back… How should he explain it to the expectant people?

Kang De sighed silently.

Although he did not feel the same way, he could understand Hong San’s dilemma.

Sometimes, kindness and soft-heartedness meant helplessness and confusion.

If he was the spineless and shameless Hong San that Kang De had seen earlier, he would have long run away. He would not even protect that group of people along the way, let alone submit to the trap of Valentine City… However, now, Hong San was different and could not let go.

Unknowingly, Hong San had undergone some kind of transformation.

He had responsibilities, worries, and courage.

Kang De sighed. “Why don’t we go to the Vidal Chamber of Commerce first?”

Hong San suddenly looked up as if he had been electrocuted. “Alright!”

“…”

“…”

F*ck.

Kang De said with a subtle expression, “Shouldn’t you f*cking say something like ‘we’ll have to face it sooner or later’ and decide to return to the Heaven and Earth Association immediately instead of wasting time?”

Although Hong San’s expression was still gloomy, he shook his head and replied, “No, no, no. If we face it later, things might change, right? What if?”

Kang De sighed weakly.

Humans were so f*cking interesting.

As he told Leona, she also had an expression that said, “Are you kidding me?”

“To our place?”

She looked Kang De up and down and suddenly said warily, “What do you want?”

“Let’s talk. We can talk anywhere,” Kang De said as if nothing had happened. “I don’t think you dare to have any thoughts. The mayor must be watching you. Moreover, you know what I’ve done, right?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Leona shivered and immediately thought of the two major results of this lord. The destruction of the Glory Sand was only a legend, and a large number of records, information, and fake news were left behind. Leona had not seen it with her own eyes and could only be fascinated. However, the other massacre happened in the territory of the Vidal family. She had personally seen the corpses and terrifying scenes on the ground and directly sensed this person’s methods.

It was precisely because of this that the girl was wary. Even though she was treated rudely by this person, she maintained her greatest restraint. It was not that she was high-quality, but because the other party was too ferocious.

Therefore, in a flash, Leona immediately understood Kang De’s plan.

“You want to attack our Chamber of Commerce!”

She was shocked and furious, “Don’t do anything rash! We… we’re not easy to bully!”

Kang De did not know whether to laugh or cry. “What are you thinking? Am I such a ferocious person?”

Leona rolled her eyes. “Let’s say this to the people who died in your hands.”

In short, it was the girl’s turn to disagree with Kang De going to the Vidal Chamber of Commerce. The result was that the old butler drove the carriage to an empty square with fewer people. Hong San and he guarded it and were wary of eavesdroppers. Then, he let Kang De and Leona talk in the carriage.

It was very easy to find a place with few people. This was because the city gate was closed and the wind was blowing everywhere. No matter how noble they were, people hurriedly returned home. The streets were no longer as prosperous as before and had become cold.

In the carriage, Kang De and Leona sat facing each other.

Looking at the decorations in the carriage, Kang De knew what was going on. This person was really rich.

With a cold expression, Leona told him what had happened.

During the Glory Sand Incident, Princess Tina publicly appeared in a city in the Empire and made a speech. She exposed the ugly betrayal that had happened in the Glory Sand Viscounty and vaguely pointed out the dishonorable role played by the eldest prince of the Empire, as well as his ambiguous connection with the elves.

Then, the Princess of Goethe raised the flag and claimed that it was no longer meaningful to visit the capital. She wanted to recruit all the young people who sympathized with Goethe and had the intention to make contributions to the country to return to Goethe with her and defeat the evil elves to protect the territory of humans and maintain the free country.

After hearing this news, Leona immediately went north to see Tina. After all, Tina was her good friend. Although she looked down on the other party’s soft and kind personality, friends were friends after all.

Unexpectedly, Tina’s personality had already changed drastically. Although she already looked beautiful and gentle, the killing intent between her eyebrows had already appeared. The knowledge and wisdom accumulated from reading a lot of books in the past had all turned into meticulous strategies overnight. She had already implemented some schemes and methods that she would never have carried out previously…

The methods recorded in history books and works.

Leona wanted to see if she could help, but Tina pushed her back.

She was the heir of the Vidal family. She had been influenced since she was young and was used to doing business. The first thing to do business was to know people.

From Tina’s eyes, she could tell that she no longer trusted her.

“The boat of friendship has capsized, and you’re still running for her?”

Hearing this, Kang De interrupted, “Moreover, why did you come to me?”

Leona said proudly, “Do you know what a friend is? It’s understandable for Tina to look like this now. After all, that b*tch Hannah betrayed her. It’s understandable that she doesn’t trust me. Of course, I can scold her and cut ties. She can die if she wants, but I won’t!”

“I want to help her and make her realize that I’m her true friend. When she thanks me tearfully, I’ll give her the middle finger and call her a fool!”
