Chapter 191: Let's Go Together
Chapter 191: Let's Go Together
"You little brat, you heard what he said just now, right? I've told you before that what you're doing isn't very meaningful and will only put yourself in danger."
The elder entered, closing the door and scolding the short-haired woman.
However, anyone who wasn't blind could see the affection in his eyes.
"Grandpa..."
The short-haired woman glared at him indignantly.
She looked completely different from before.
The three middle-aged men beside her couldn't help but smirk.
Only Jiang Cheng considered drawing his gun, but then hesitated.
"Kid, I know you have a little toy on you, so I'll give you some advice. It's best not to use it. I'm not afraid of that thing, but my granddaughter is different."
The elder narrowed his eyes and glanced at Jiang Cheng.
"Kid, you'd better listen to what Elder Qin has to say. He's a Force Sage," the middle-aged man reminded him.
His heart agreed with Jiang Cheng's previous statement.
If Jiang Cheng acted recklessly, the consequences would be dire.
"A Force Sage..."
Jiang Cheng sucked in a cold breath.
Suddenly, a glimmer of hope sparked in his heart.
What if he hadn't come here today and instead came with Autumn Maple at night? What would have happened then?
"Senior, you've misunderstood. I didn't mean that."
Jiang Cheng forced a bitter smile and quickly explained.
He knew that the identities of these people before him were probably not ordinary.
Especially that short-haired woman.
Even the Dawn Society didn't have a Sage among them.
"Good, then."
The elder sat down in a chair.
"Xiao Yu, come and give your grandpa a massage."
"Yes, grandpa."
Qin Yu walked over, looking very obedient.
The elder showed a satisfied expression, and after a while, he slowly spoke.
"Let me guess, you're the mastermind behind this, the assassin sent to deal with my granddaughter, right?"
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, the people in the room all looked at Jiang Cheng in disbelief, their eyes filled with incredulity.
Was this person an assassin?
Or did he come to kill them? If so, why did he say so much to them just now?
"If I say no, will you believe me, senior?" Jiang Cheng asked awkwardly.
"What do you think?"
The elder snorted coldly.
"If it weren't for your previous actions and the face you gave me with those words, do you think you'd still be standing here talking to me?"
"Yes."
Jiang Cheng remained silent for a moment, then honestly admitted.
"Take off your mask and talk, it's uncomfortable to look at."
Jiang Cheng had no choice but to remove his mask.
"!"
Everyone was shocked.
Especially the middle-aged man.
He never expected the person who defeated him to be so young!
"You're quite young. What rank Force Knight are you?"
Jiang Cheng glanced at them, "Third Rank."
"Third... Third Rank?"
The people present were completely stunned.
Especially the middle-aged man.
He was forty years old and only a First Rank Force Knight.
The person before him looked barely twenty, and he was already a Third Rank?
Qin Yu's face also showed a surprised expression, but it quickly turned into defiance.
What's the big deal about being a Third Rank? Given some time, she could achieve that too.
"Quite the talent, huh?"
The elder nodded slightly.
"The organization that can cultivate a talent like you must be well-known. Speak, who sent you here?"
After much hesitation, Jiang Cheng replied, "The Dawn Society."
"In the face of such absolute dominance, resistance is futile."
But the current situation was already much better than what he had encountered earlier in the night.
"Dawn Society?"
"Which resistance organization?"
"It's not a resistance organization anymore, right? I heard it's now an assassin organization, and everyone inside wears a golden mask."
"Why isn't he wearing one?"
"The Dawn Society, of course."
The elder mumbled, his face also showing a complex expression. He then looked at Jiang Cheng and said, "Since you're an assassin sent by the Dawn Society, why didn't you take action directly? Why did you come to give them a warning instead?"
Jiang Cheng let out a bitter laugh.
If possible, he really shouldn't have accepted this task.
"Elder, I also received a mission from the Society. According to custom, I came to gather information first. But I learned that you are different from the other gangs around here, so I wanted to give you a warning."
"Oh? Aren't you afraid of failing the mission?"
Jiang Cheng realized this was an easy question, and quickly replied, "It's just a mission. If I fail, I'll just face punishment when I return. But what I'm worried about is that the Society might send someone even more formidable after I go back. That's when your granddaughter will be in danger. Of course, I might be overthinking it. With you here, even if our leader comes, they'll just be asking for trouble."
"Friend, I didn't expect you to be such a man of honor and loyalty."
The middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
"You're too talented to be in the Dawn Society."
"Yeah, you should..." The woman beside him started to speak but quickly stopped herself.
Qin Yu's eyes also showed a hint of emotion.
"Hmm."
The elder's gaze softened.
"I can tell you're telling the truth, but I don't like owing people favors. So, since you'll inevitably be punished when you go back, why don't you just join us directly?"
"Who are you?"
"The Resistance Army, have you heard of them?"
"The Resistance Army?"
Jiang Cheng was stunned.
"You're surprised, right?"
A proud smile appeared on the elder's face. "I didn't really want to come to this place either, but Little Rain insisted on coming to see it. After seeing it, she couldn't bear to leave the people here and wanted to help them. You know what happened after that. Little Rain, what did Grandpa say?"
"Isn't Grandpa here with us?"
Qin Yu glanced at Jiang Cheng and said, "Don't even mention a Tier 3, even a Tier 9 or Tier 10 wouldn't be a match for you, Grandpa."
The elder couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.
"If we were really that powerful, we wouldn't have been forced to hide in the mountains until now."
"Grandpa."
"Alright."
The elder interrupted her, "It's been two or three months since I brought you out this time. If we don't go back, the people at the base will start to worry. Plus, I've let you experience being a gang leader. No more requests."
Qin Yu pouted.
"Oh, right, you should come with us too."
The elder pointed at Jiang Cheng.
"Me?"
Jiang Cheng was taken aback.
Everyone else in the room was also stunned.
