Chapter 630 He Was Killed by Me a Long Time Ago

Sitting side by side with Rodney, he said to me: "You are right, someone wanted to kill me. Thanks to you asking Master Hall to protect me, I was able to avoid this disaster."

"Well, I understand what you mean, but there's one thing I don't quite understand." I said in confusion: "Although you are a candidate to succeed the Lord of Airui City, you have no ambition and no power. Yu Li, you shouldn’t be the target of assassination.”

"You may be right, but it doesn't mean that everyone will think so," Rodney said: "After all, the blood of the Carter family flows in my body. After all, I am a candidate to succeed the Lord of Airey City. After all, I am the one with the highest level of strength among the three brothers, haven’t you noticed? The entire atmosphere of Airui City has changed and has become more martial."

Frowning and thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is true. The number of adventurers coming and going on the streets, taverns, brothels and casinos is obviously much larger than in the past.

I thought that there were only more rogue-type adventurers in Ai Rui City. After listening to Rodney's words, it turns out that the overall number of adventurers has increased, but rogue adventurers are more conspicuous.

Rodney continued: "Because of the resurgence of martial arts, as the most powerful candidate to succeed the city lord, I immediately changed from being no threat at the beginning to becoming a thorn in the flesh of my two brothers. I wanted to remove him. And then quickly.”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but sigh, patted his shoulder, and comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay. Don't think too much. There are some things. The more you think about them, the more they accumulate in your heart." The hatred will become stronger, and if you don’t want to, your life will be the easiest.”

"How could you not want to?" Rodney smiled bitterly and said, "If it were the old Airui City, no matter which brother or my sister wanted to be the city lord, I would support it with both hands, and there would be no competition for the position of city lord. Thoughts, but it’s different now, no matter which brother falls into the hands of Airei City, it will get worse, no, it will definitely get worse, you can see it from the current situation!"

"Do you know what makes Airei City like this?" I tilted my head and said with a half-smile.

"Coveted for power," Rodney said: "Both my father and my brothers have persistent hopes that the Carter family can become the only king of Airui City. No, it should not be just them. My grandfather once That’s how he taught my brother and me, and he told us that this was the last wish of many generations of Carter family ancestors! Oh, my God!”

Rodney held his head. He was in pain and at the same time blamed himself.

I patted his back and comforted him: "Well, forget it, it's not your fault, it's just that you happened to be born in this family and have this bloodline."

After that, I said: "You are right. The reason why Airui City has become what it is today is because of your father and your brothers' coveting for power. What they want to drive away is not just Foreigners, but those obstacles that may prevent them from taking charge of the entire Airei City, even you, their biological son, their biological brother, once you become an obstacle, you will also be killed by every means."

Rodney sighed a little decadently.

"But, the current situation is not too bad."

Seeing Rodney looking at me in confusion, I continued: "First of all, you are not dead. As I said before, as long as you are not dead, you still have a chance; secondly, you have finally figured out who your family is. The true face of a family is that they even kill each other for the sake of power. Such a family is quite terrifying. Here, I want to ask you, if we really have to fight against each other in the future, what can you do between life and death? ?"

Rodney hesitated for a while, shook his head and said, "I can't do it."

I curled my lips, sighed, and said, "Forget it, let's wait until we encounter such serious issues in the future. Let's talk about the current matter first."

I turned to Harold and said, "Harold, you are so unreasonable. The city lord pretended to be unconscious and didn't tell me anything."

Harold was listening to my conversation with Rodney as if he were listening to a play. When he saw that I suddenly turned my attention to him, he was a little confused for a moment. He was startled for a moment and then said: "I just learned about this news not long ago, but it's not yet..." It’s an undisclosed secret, how did you know?”

Smiling slightly, I said: "There are many ways for me to obtain information."

After that, I turned to Carter Eva and said: "Hey~ Isn't this my little cousin? I haven't seen you for a few days. Have you lost weight or gained weight? Come on, let me hug you and see if you have lost weight or gained weight. Already~"

Carter Eva's face turned red instantly.

Rodney coughed dryly and said, "You are almost my cousin-in-law now, and you still dare to molest my sister."

I turned around and said, "Huh? Who is your cousin-in-law?"

"Of course it's you," Rodney said: "Yula is my cousin, so naturally you are my cousin's husband."

"Hey, what you said is that Yura and I are not together yet. We are just working and guild partnerships."

"Come on," Rodney waved his hand and said, "Don't think I don't know. What my cousin is wearing is the bracelet you gave her. This is the first jewelry she has worn since she grew up. .”

Did you see, what is a pig teammate? In just a few words, he revealed all the past history of my cousin. However, thanks to him, I got to know Yura a little more deeply.

I curled my lips helplessly, acquiescing to Rodney's words, and turned my head to Jin Siqi, the woman whose weapon I cut off with a knife when we first met, the woman who has always been brooding about me, at this moment, she My expression no longer held the hostility it had before, but it still looked a little awkward.

"Eh? Isn't this Jin Siqi~ Long time no see, long time no see."

I greeted her with a warm tone while sitting on the chair and looking at her motionless.

Jin Siqi coughed and said, "Well, long time no see."

"It's strange," I said angrily, "Why didn't you go to help the second young master? Instead, you got together with us commoners?"

After hearing this, Jin Siqi felt a little sullen, but more importantly, she was still embarrassed.

Harold hurriedly opened his mouth and said, "Xiaoyi, stop teasing her. She is not from the Second Young Master's side."

"Oh, that's it," I said calmly, "In the dungeon before, I saw you and Xu Tengbo targeting me together, and I thought you were all the Second Young Master's people."

"No, I just..." Jin Siqi hesitated to speak, and finally did not give any explanation, but said lightly: "Xu Tengbo and I only met because of the interests of the guild, and I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Of course you won't be able to see him." I smiled and said, "He was killed by me a long time ago."
