Chapter 33: The Flame King's Old Grudge

Two days later, in Jicheng Base;

"Brother Yan, two envoys of Emperor Ming are coming to our base today. What should we do?"

Lin Han asked with a worried look on his face.

Not far in front of him, King Yan also sat on a chair with an embarrassed look on his face, and did not speak for a long time.

"What else can we do? Emperor Ming has broken through the sixth level. I am afraid that a fifth-level supernatural person will not be able to survive a single move in his hands. Do we have any other choice except agreeing to the imperial edict?"

Just as King Yan was silent, a feminine middle-aged man wearing glasses spoke at an inappropriate time.

And this person was no one else, but Li You, a Fengcheng person who was kindly accepted by King Yan a few months ago.

This Li You was originally a fourth-level supernatural person. After Chen Hu's death, he was the strongest person in Fengcheng Base.

So after being accepted by Jicheng Base, Li You naturally became the leader of the remaining Fengcheng people, responsible for managing the Fengcheng people who now live in Jicheng Base.

But Li You didn't seem to remember the kindness of Yan Wang's sheltering. When he spoke to Yan Wang at this moment, he didn't show any respect at all, and even had some mockery.

Of course, this mockery was well hidden by Li You and was not exposed, so Lin Han and Yan Wang didn't find anything unusual when listening to him.

"Do we really have to agree to Emperor Ming's amnesty?"

And listening to Li You's words, Lin Han's worry became more intense in an instant.

"But his conditions for amnesty are too harsh. He actually wants to offer a truckload of food every month! How much food can our base collect in a month? If we give them a truckload of food, will we still be alive?"

As he said that, Lin Han looked at Yan Wang who was silent, hesitated for a while and continued.

"And this is not the most important problem. The most important thing is that Bing Wang, who came to the amnesty, had fought with Brother Yan once and suffered some losses. I am afraid that he will take the opportunity to take revenge when he comes to Jicheng Base this time."

It turns out that there was such a past between Yan Wang and Bing Wang.

Listening to Lin Han's words, Li You also completely understood why King Yan had been silent with a gloomy face since just now.

"In that case, we can make good use of this matter! If we can borrow the knife of the sixth-level psychic, it will be easier to overthrow King Yan than for me to spread rumors."

After learning about King Yan's old grudge, Li You's eyes turned slightly and whispered in his heart.

And in the process of whispering, it also exposed an amazing thing.

That is, the rumors about King Yan in the base recently were actually spread by Li You!

And his purpose is to destroy King Yan's image and shake his leadership position in the base.

It seems that this fourth-level psychic from Fengcheng has never been willing to stay in Jicheng Base from the beginning!

King Yan took him in at the beginning, which was tantamount to letting a wolf into the house.

Of course, although there was an undercurrent in his heart, on the surface, Li You remained calm, just looking at the distressed Lin Han and King Yan, and continued to stay aside and remain silent.

So King Yan and Lin Han did not notice the wolfish ambitions of the people around them.

"Even if King Bing wanted to take the opportunity to retaliate, there is nothing we can do. Now that Emperor Ming has broken through the sixth level, we must not confront him head-on, otherwise not only myself, but also the entire Jicheng base will inevitably be implicated."

And listening to Lin Han's constant worried whispers, King Yan, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke.

"Let's see what the situation is first. If King Bing is really determined to retaliate, then even if I give up my life, I will protect the other people in Jicheng Base."

Although King Yan did not say it clearly, anyone could hear that he was going to sacrifice himself.

If King Bing came to Jicheng Base and really wanted to settle the old grudges of the past, King Yan would probably have to surrender and let the other party deal with him.

"Brother Yan, you are not..."

After hearing what King Yan meant, Lin Han also showed an unwilling look instantly.

But even if he was unwilling, what could he do?

Facing the invasion of the sixth-level superpower, they had no other better choice.

If only King Yan was sacrificed to save the Jicheng base, it would probably be the best result.

"Hahaha! Where is King Yan? An old friend is coming, won't you come out to greet him?"

Just when King Yan and Lin Han were secretly sad, suddenly a loud shout came directly from outside the base.

It turned out that the envoy of Emperor Ming had arrived at the Jicheng base!

"What? Are they here? So fast?"

When Lin Han heard this voice, his face changed instantly, and even King Yan's expression changed.

But King Yan was the leader of a faction after all, so after a brief shock, he quickly recovered.

"Huh, don't panic, we will fight back if the enemy comes! Since they are here, let's go out and meet them together."

The King of Yan let out a long sigh, and then took the lead and walked out to the entrance of the base.

"Brother Yan, I'll go with you!"

Lin Han's eyes flashed when he saw this, but he finally gritted his teeth and followed the footsteps of the King of Yan.

"Oh, you're here so soon? There's going to be a good show to watch now, hehe, we have to go out and see, maybe this is a good opportunity for us Fengcheng people to turn the tables!"

Finally, the remaining Li You followed the two people and walked out with a look of excitement.

At the entrance of Jicheng Base;

More than a dozen abandoned cars were piled together to form a simple fortress.

At the moment, four third-level psychics stood inside the fortress, looking outside in a serious state of readiness.

Outside the fortress, two powerful auras stood side by side. One had a rough figure, and golden light flashed between his eyebrows from time to time. The other was thin, but his whole body exuded a breathtaking chill.

Aren't these two the King Kong and the Ice King who stood beside Emperor Ming that day!

"Hahaha, Jicheng Base is really a small place. The fortress at the entrance of the base is actually just made of abandoned cars. How many attacks can it block from mutant beasts? At the entrance of our Mingcheng Base, a cement wall several meters thick was built!"

King Kong was extremely arrogant. Looking at the entrance of Jicheng Base at this moment, he showed his contempt without concealment.

"Hey, you four are at least level 3 psychics. It's a waste to stay in this small place. Why don't you come back to Mingcheng with us? I'll give you a good job."

Even at the end, King Kong openly teased the psychics of Jicheng Base who were guarding the fortress.

""

Listening to King Kong's words, the psychics of Jicheng Base were silent.

Obviously, they were not interested in King Kong's words, but due to his powerful strength, they did not dare to refute him directly, so they could only remain silent.

"King Kong, you are joking. You are a big shot from Mingcheng Base. Why do you have to tease the juniors of Jicheng? Just talk to me directly if you have anything to say."

Fortunately, just when several people were secretly struggling, a hearty voice came, taking over King Kong's words, breaking the embarrassment of several people.

"Haha, King Yan, you finally came out"

Looking at the red-haired figure slowly walking out of the base, the Ice King who had been silent beside him showed a cold smile.
