Chapter 374 - 344: Confrontation Between Both Sides
The north side of Yao Mountain Island is Cui Mountain Island.To the west of both islands is F Continent, and to the east is M Continent.
To the south, F Continent and M Continent are only separated by a strait.
Yao Mountain Island is almost completely surrounded by them.
So once someone breaks through Cui Mountain Island, it’s equivalent to opening the door on the north side of Yao Mountain Island.
Cui Mountain Island is very small, almost entirely owned by the Qin Family.
Because it’s small, its development depends entirely on the surroundings.
And mainly on Yao Mountain Island.
The biggest reason Yao Mountain Island helps it develop is because it considers it a natural barrier.
So if someone wants to start something against the Qin Family, Yao Mountain Island will be the first to step out and block it.
After all, outsiders who don’t develop completely on Cui Mountain Island are not subject to Yao Mountain Island’s constraints, but rather pose a threat to Yao Mountain Island.
Gu Yanjing and his group landed directly on Cui Mountain Island from F Continent a day after Qiao Yuxian went to M Continent.
And Yao Mountain Island, knowing they were coming, has been guarding the south.
As soon as Mr. Gu and his team made a move, they acted immediately.
One side in the west, one side in the south.
One side comes to attack the Qin Family, the other side wants to protect the Qin Family.
The two sides met each other before they reached the Qin Family.
Both sides with overwhelming formations, like dark clouds pressing over the city, in momentum, as if to sink the entire Cui Mountain Island.
Countless vehicles and equipment, continuously approaching.
Gu Yanjing and his group sat in the car, looking at the people coming from the opposite side.
Lin Huai Shu said, "Yanjing, what should we do? Fight?"
Gu Yanjing sat in the back seat, looking at the vehicles passing in front of him, said, "Let’s talk first."
"Huh?" Lin Huai Shu looked at him, asking in surprise, "What? Talk?"
"Hmm." Gu Yanjing said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Xia’s voice came over the intercom in the car, "Mr. Gu, don’t fight. Don’t mind Yao Mountain Island; we’ll go directly to the Qin Family."
"Huh????" Lin Huai Shu was even more confused, "What do you mean?"
Chu Zhengran’s voice was dry, also somewhat puzzled, "Literal meaning, I suppose."
Lin Huai Shu continued, "Yao Mountain Island is already in front of us. If we don’t handle them, we’ll be turned to dust before reaching the Qin Family."
"Turn into dust and drift to the ends of the earth?" Chu Zhengran added.
Lin Huai Shu: "... Damn it, go away. We’re discussing business here."
Chu Zhengran stopped talking.
Lin Huai Shu looked at Gu Yanjing again, "Also, what do you mean by talk? I don’t think these people from Yao Mountain Island look like they can talk, they seem fiercer than us."
"Literal meaning." Gu Yanjing said indifferently.
Lin Huai Shu: "...... I’d love to give you two a smack. Have a strategy not shared with me and play riddles with me."
"I honestly don’t know." Chu Zhengran said.
Gu Yanjing said, "Let’s talk first. If it doesn’t work out... you guys hold them off, and I’ll take people to the Qin Family."
Listening to his calm and indifferent tone, as if a mountain collapsing wouldn’t faze him, Lin Huai Shu was shocked.
After a while, he suddenly sat up straight, pointing at Gu Yanjing, "Hey! What kind of demon are you! Occupying my brother’s body, hurry up and get out!"
Gu Yanjing looked at him and squinted his eyes.
The expression seemed like he’d have one less brother.
Lin Huai Shu coughed lightly, immediately quieted down and corrected his expression, "You’re very unlike yourself today. Before, when facing such situations, you would directly fight. Now, not only do you say you want to talk, but if it doesn’t work out, you plan to run. Too unusual."
Gu Yanjing glanced at him without responding, continuing to look ahead.
Both parties’ vehicles stopped.
Wan Ying got out of the car, and someone from the opposite side got out too.
Lin Huai Shu said, "It’s Yan Jiu."
The intercom conveyed Chu Zhengran’s voice, "Might be a bit of trouble. This person is even more stubborn than Shang Chen. If his orders are to fight, even if we offer the entire Capital City to Yao Mountain Island, he won’t back down, but continue fighting."
In Gu Yanjing’s car, Shang Chen frowned slightly listening to his words.
Sudden silence, no one spoke.
At this moment, everyone hoped Yan Jiu’s orders were not to fight.
Although not afraid, it’s better to avoid a battle.
But soon this hope was shattered.
Wan Ying got out of the car, not even having time to speak.
Yan Jiu, wearing sunglasses and dressed in leather, shouted, "I’m telling you, don’t think about leaving some to fight us and sending others to the Qin Family. If one person leaves your side, our sniper will blow up that car."
"Is he pointing at our car?" Lin Huai Shu said.
"Hmm." Gu Yanjing replied.
Lin Huai Shu lightly inhaled, "What’s the plan?"
Gu Yanjing didn’t respond, his expression calm.
"Do they only have snipers?" Chu Zhengran said.
As soon as his words fell, a red dot appeared on Yan Jiu’s forehead.
A sniper rifle directly targeting his head.
Instantly, all of Yan Jiu’s people raised their guns.
Gu Yanjing’s team also reacted swiftly, grabbing their guns, ready for action.
Both sides were like two tightly drawn bows, arrows ready to be released any moment.
Yan Jiu took off his sunglasses, raised his eyes to look at the red dot on his forehead, then shouted again, "Fire! Trade me for a Capital City Mr. Gu! That’s a good deal!"
As Yan Jiu shouted arrogantly, Lin Huai Shu clicked his tongue lightly as if he couldn’t sit still.
Chu Zhengran’s voice turned somewhat cold, "Yanjing, why do I feel like he’s targeting you?"
Gu Yanjing looked at Yan Jiu, the cold given away by the murderous intent in his eyes, paused and said in a low voice, "Miss Qin, this person..."
Lin Huai Shu looked at him.
Qin Xia immediately understood what he meant and said, "Can fight."
Gu Yanjing was suddenly filled with murderous intent, absent-mindedly rubbing his fingertips.
In another car, Chu Zhengran also looked toward Qin Xia.
The two were clearly planning something unusual today.
They used to never be this familiar with each other, unless...
Gu Yanjing ordered coldly, "Follow the original plan, leave someone to hold him off. The rest go to the Qin Family. Spare Yan Jiu’s life. Abandon this car."
"Alright."
"Yes."
The intercom conveyed a unanimous response.
Lin Huai Shu slowly placed his hand on the car door, then said, "Three..."
Everyone prepared, listening to Lin Huai Shu’s command, acting in complete coordination.
Wan Ying stood at the front, calmly talking with Yan Jiu, speaking while listening to the voice in his earpiece, ready at any moment.
Yan Jiu also sensed something, waved his hand, immediately aiming a sniper at Wan Ying.
"Two..." Lin Huai Shu said.
"One" was just about to be called out, everyone ready to act.
Yan Jiu’s side was about to pull the trigger, when suddenly the rumbling of cars came from the southwest direction.
The sound was loud, more than one vehicle.
Judging by the sound, it seemed very powerful.
The sudden noise interrupted their actions.
Both sides looked toward the direction of the sound.
Dust rose in the southeast direction.
A few cars traversed through the dust, driving toward them.
The leading car even had the golden flag of Yao Mountain Island flying on it...
