Chapter 404: Admiration (2/2)
”Alright, alright,” smiled Liu Sheng. ”We don't need your guarantee. In 30 days we would be waiting here for you. If you did not make it, we would wait for another, till the day you arrive.”
”Okay!” nodded Ye Chong firmly.
”So, my fair lady, we hope for your participation in this Congregation. Please, do join us, will you?” said Liu Sheng as he shifted his sight upon Feng Su. His tone was much more insistent, unlike before.
Feng Su could feel her blood freezing just from the sights of these experts.
Her fair face had just turned snow-white from the pressuring atmosphere created by them.
Her eyes, filled with helpless spite, wafted upon Ye Chong pitifully, as her curves grooved in nervousness.
Such a pitiful sight! And the group seemed to have lost their morality among the pedestrians. How could they force such a weak beauty into this war? The pedestrians would love to voice their anger, but well they were not the Jie experts and never wanted to be the punching bag.
Come on, save the girl, Guan.
Save her.
”I'll be going,” said Ye Chong, neglecting Feng Su's begging stare. He gave a nod at the group and turned away.
Feng Su felt she had lost hope as she closed her eyes, with tears dripping.
”Are you still a man?” said one girl from the crowd. She could not bear with this anymore! Disdainfully she shouted as she stepped to the front.
”Right! Are you still a man?”
”How could you do this?” The crowd's anger had been initiated.
”You might be from the ridge, but you are one heartless, weak man!”
”So people from the ridge are shameless as you eh?”
Guan Qingheng was feeling uneasy from the showering comments. Man the fame of May Night's Ridge...
It was a massive verbal attack coming from the crowd, that even the Jie experts flinched.
Ye Chong did not see the need in this. He believed his action was reasonable. Why the criticisms?
”So all of you would like to have a word, eh?” said Sisko, angrily.
Then the noises disappeared. Sisko's eyes had murdered the aggression in people. The pedestrians were looking frightful upon his glance, some even squeezed back into the crowd.
”Save your pity act. Move,” said Liu Sheng.
Poor Feng Su, she did not even have the chance to redeem herself. She did not manage to even summon her ride. She could not run away and certainly she could not call for help.
Well, she got to be cooperative at the moment, probably, in order to find the next chance to have a hit-and-run.
A mech owner like her only needed one thing at the moment. Timing, timing, the most natural thing hardest came by. Dammit, only if this boy spoke for her, but no, he was leaving.
Ye Chong sneaked into the crowd right after.
Crack! Thus! On his way he disabled the few attackers who tried to disrupt the heroes in the dark. That was when the pedestrians realized he was no coward, he was a savior!
The crowd was totally silent now, especially when they heard the piercing wails of the tumbling men on the ground.
Ye Chong indifferently walked out of the frightened crowd.
Well first thing's first, guess I should ask people around for the ridge's location.
”You're going to the ridge?” said one man from his back.
