With a "swish" sound, just as I finished speaking, the sword on the waist of the middle-aged man whom I called Bola came to my neck. The feeling of the sword's pressure was really uncomfortable. . . . .
"You... How did you know? Tell me~~~" Amid the screams of the villagers outside the field, Bora, who had been relatively calm, suddenly became a different person, with a look of shock on his face. After pressing the sword against my neck, he pulled out a hand and grabbed my collar, ignoring the screams of the villagers below.
"Don't be so excited. You told me all this yourself...Okay, let me go. I have no intention of doing anything bad to you. Maybe we can still be friends...Okay! It's no big deal to tell you. Didn't you say that you have been in contact with the two countries in the East Continent for many years? Think about it again. Did you call yourself Bo just now...Haha!"
"You cheated me? You..." Looking at my smile, Bora couldn't help but feel a bitter smile. He had been in Andriel for more than ten years, and except for being betrayed by a traitor in the end, he had never experienced such a thing. This was simply too embarrassing for him.
But at the same time, Bora was embarrassed about his identity being exposed. If he killed me, the surviving clan would be in great trouble, but if he didn't kill me, he couldn't guarantee that he could shut me up. And those elders, although they wanted to stop Bora's actions, undoubtedly had their concerns. . . For a moment, the whole scene was extremely strange. The people in the audience were in chaos because I, the savior, was threatened by their admirers, but the stage was so quiet that it seemed as if time and space had stopped.
Looking at the hesitant Bora, just when I was trying to make a move, Bora suddenly shouted, "Don't come over!"
"You release Lord Shen, or don't blame me for being rude..." As Bora shouted, a female voice behind me became more resolute. The voice seemed to come from a cold winter current, chilling one to the bone.
"Go!" Seeing Yiya step forward decisively, Bora casually waved out a Dou Qi. Seeing the milky white Dou Qi floating out from the sword shadow, I felt a little strange. I wonder if this guy is not good enough? Or is he sympathetic? With such a strong Dou Qi, he actually used it on Yiya, who has already reached the level of a silver swordsman
Sure enough, just as the thought flashed through my mind, Yiya swung the sword in her hand and released a dazzling silver fighting spirit, which directly broke Bora’s fighting spirit into pieces, and rushed towards Bora along the original path...
"Damn it!" Bora said only these two words, and immediately dragged me away from the fighting spirit in a panic, while starting to mutter to himself.
“Yiya, don’t be rude to the chief! You should know that in the survivors’ clan, no one can disobey the chief’s orders, and you are no exception…” Seeing Yiya taking action to repel Bora, the great elder almost jumped out in a hurry.
"I don't know who he is, and I don't want to know who he is. I only know that my greatest wish in this life is to give my parents and brother a life of plenty and warmth, and now all my hopes are placed on Lord Shen. So, I won't let anyone hurt him... no matter who it is!" The sword pointed directly at Bora, and Yiya spoke out the wish that had been buried in her heart for many years word by word. From her expression, everyone could see that she was definitely not joking.
"Yiya, stop messing around! Bora is the only son of the previous clan leader. After he failed to seek a future for his clan in the Mokast Empire, he has been organizing and participating in battles against the Mokast Empire and the Kingdom of Yan in Andriel. He only returned here last year and inherited..."
"I don't want to hear this. In the eyes of us common people, as long as we can have enough food and clothing, we are not interested in knowing who is in power and who is driven out... But what about now? You only care about your own interests and don't consider our feelings at all. Think about it, if there are 1 million fewer people in the land of the survivors, then everyone's rations may be enough for everyone to eat... As for those who followed Lord Shen out, I think based on my contact during this period, I believe that he will not do anything excessive. Of course, if I implicate everyone because of what I did today, then I will definitely seek justice from him personally, and commit suicide to apologize to my people..."
"Yes, Yiya is right! If we continue like this, we will all starve to death. How can we be willing if we don't follow this Lord Shen to take a chance?"
"Yiya, we won't blame you no matter what. I, Doug, will be the first to volunteer to bring my family to follow Lord Shen to the Kingdom of Yan to make a living..."
"I'm going too..."
"We'll go too. I'll take my whole family with me..."
Almost as soon as Yiya finished speaking, the chaotic crowd in the audience started to stir, and they all expressed their willingness to follow me to the Kingdom of Yan to seek a new life. Some of them were so anxious that they even started to arrange for their families to go back and inform the whole family, and there were signs that they would move immediately.
At the same time, several villagers who were more active and stronger could no longer bear the danger I was in, so they started to carry weapons and slowly surrounded me.
“You... what are you doing? All of you step back... step back..." Looking at more and more villagers below the stage joining the pace of moving forward, the faces of several elders had turned pale. This was so unbelievable to them, who had always thought themselves superior.
"Well, it's time to end everything, right? If you don't want me to take all the villagers away, then cooperate with me immediately. After all, if the orc army breaks through the Canglang defense line, then besides the unlucky soldiers like us, the first to perish will definitely be you stupid people..." After saying a few words in a light tone, I flicked my fingers lightly in the middle of the long sword in Bora's hand in front of everyone's astonishment. With a crisp sound of breaking, the long sword that had been pressing on my neck broke into two pieces. Everyone's eyes followed the half of the broken sword to my feet. In their minds, I, a guy who has always regarded myself as a magician, am now acting like a magician... ...
"What are you looking at? It's just a rubbish sword, isn't it? Are you reluctant to part with it? Do you want me to compensate you with one? Tell me! Do you want to take those secrets into your coffin? Or do you want me to leave some people for you? Remember, I won't wait for you for long..." I resolutely turned around, pulled Yiya over, and walked towards the civilians. Let them take care of everything here! (To be continued)
