The Herbal Scents of Farm Life

Chapter 3117 - 3118: A Cornered Dog Will Bite

He had always known that the master was a cold-hearted person, and anyone who failed in their mission would meet a grim fate.

In the past, he had watched as others were executed by the master. Now, was it finally his turn?

"Yes, I will definitely get this done."

For the sake of his own life, he had to complete this task.

He must find out where the mother of the demon child was, or else his own end was near too.

"Go."

Since there was no trace of Lu Tianfeng here, nor of the poison-corpses or the demon child’s mother, the man certainly did not want to stay any longer.

He turned and left immediately.

The other subordinates followed suit, as if they had never been to this place at all.

Once they all left, the surroundings returned to silence. In the grass not far away, two figures emerged.

"So it was him!"

Lin Baizhong stared at the man’s back with a terrifyingly deep gaze.

"You’ve seen this person?" Lu Tianlan turned his head in confusion and looked at Lin Baizhong, asking.

Even he hadn’t seen that person before, so how did Lin Baizhong know him? Could he be mistaken?

"Yes."

Lin Baizhong murmured the word softly.

"When I rescued you and went back to retrieve the City Lord’s order, I happened to bump into this person leading many subordinates, dealing with the corpses of those guards."

Back then, he thought this person just happened to pass by and buried the corpses, not thinking much of it.

At that time, he had lost his memory and came to the Illusion Continent alone, unsure of how he felt, and didn’t think deeply about those strange things.

Otherwise, he would have realized it sooner.

"It was he who made the move on the subordinates?!"

When he heard him mention the past, Lu Tianlan thought of the incident where he and his wife were in danger and were luckily rescued by Lin Baizhong.

At that time, he thought Lu Tiankuo did not accept him as the City Lord and wanted to kill him to take his place, so he didn’t think deeply.

Now it seems that everything around him should be connected to this person.

Even his son ending up in the wilderness was this person’s doing.

"We should investigate this person’s identity in the Illusion Continent," Lin Baizhong reminded Lu Tianlan.

No matter if that person is from the Illusion Continent or not, now that he’s here, he must have an identity that conveniently keeps him there.

No matter how they plan to deal with him in the future, they should first understand his identity thoroughly.

"It should be investigated."

Lu Tianlan whispered.

However, he still shook his head, thinking it wasn’t right to investigate now.

"Let’s wait until Sangsang has given birth before doing anything else. A dog will fight back when cornered, let alone a person like this," he said.

"Right."

Lin Baizhong nodded in agreement.

They had burned all the poison-corpses that this person wanted and removed the demon child’s mother.

This person must be furious by now, and sending someone to investigate his whereabouts could make anyone fall ill. They should be cautious.

"Let’s go back first. It’s best to seal this place permanently," he said.

"Let me take care of that."

Lu Tianlan thought for a moment and took on the task.

Lin Baizhong: "..."
