However, Chuan Er really thought he was acting very secretly. Did he think that by saying nothing, Li Yan would know nothing?
If he really knew nothing, he wouldn’t have come up the mountain with them, and would the current situation even exist?
"I know what you’re thinking! You’re guessing, what exactly do I know, or have I figured out who your informant is! Will I disrupt your next plan!"
Li Yan spoke nonchalantly, but his tone was full of calmness, while Chuan Er was already in a state of shock and trepidation.
That’s right, he did have external support, as well as being a senior local manager. If not for this, he wouldn’t have been reigning on Taiping Mountain.
If it weren’t for this unexpected exposure, he would definitely be able to continue his carefree days on Taiping Mountain, without having to resort to internal collaboration. He just wanted to use this method to quickly transport this batch of goods.
"Devil King, you’re too decisive! Why should I speculate about these things? It’s all pointless!"
Although Chuan Er said so, he clenched the laser, feeling an impulse to act. He resolutely thought in his heart that this Devil King was too cunning and couldn’t be left alive; he should kill him!
He mustn’t let him ruin the upcoming plan.
"You really have a bad temper. If you truly dared to kill me, I wouldn’t have come to this place. Don’t forget, without me, you won’t get down the mountain no matter what!"
Li Yan calmly uttered these words, which was the real reason he dared to reveal his hand.
Because he could conclude that Chuan Er would not dare to kill him!
"Devil King is overconfident!"
Chuan Er, who had been treading on the edge of a knife for years and was accustomed to the taste of blood, had a keen sense of danger, and he could now feel that Li Yan was very dangerous and posed a mortal threat to him.
"It’s not confidence, but fact."
Li Yan lazily lowered his eyelids, clearly dismissive of the gear in front of him, and said: "Even if special forces trainees suddenly launch an attack, despite having surveillance zones outside, you wouldn’t detect us immediately. Isn’t this clear? And we can launch an accurate attack."
"In the face of a standoff between two forces, the situation is perilous! There’s absolutely no time for strategic maneuvers, but you were able to act immediately and capture hundreds of villagers to use as bargaining chips! This alone corroborates everything. It’s very clear that someone outside knew about our attack and informed you.
"Therefore, you were able to make plans early, and catch us off guard when we’re unprepared! I suppose using me to threaten the authorities down the mountain is also part of your plan, right? With this understanding, my life is still long, so I won’t die!"
Chuan Er’s hand holding the gear trembled, and there was a heavy stone weighing on his heart, extremely oppressive! It’s no exaggeration to say this is the most terrifying opponent he’s ever encountered, without exception!
"Devil King truly lives up to his reputation; I’ve realized that today..."
Chuan Er praised calmly, but inside there was a tidal wave of turmoil. He thought with fear that if they hadn’t had internal and external cooperation, he would have definitely fallen into Li Yan’s hands...
"Undeserved praise! A prince without trainees is useless, just as I said before, without backup, we’re fighting isolated!"
Li Yan finally opened his eyes, his dark pupils fixed on him, as if probing his soul.
"Devil King speaks no wrong!"
The earlier terrifying Chuan Er finally realized he was just a captive, merely a hostage. Even with the most brilliant mind, it was of no use now. His only purpose was to utilize his value to leave, and as for the rest, it had nothing to do with him anymore.
