Chapter 144: Life is worse than death (2)
"How is it? Is this chip okay?" Canfeng asked with a smile.
The muscles at the corners of Huan Ling's lips twitched slightly. After the blindfold was removed, her right eye, which had not completely lost its sight, looked at the person in front of her with a swollen state. Because her lips were glued shut and she could not speak, she could only make intermittent sobs from her throat. It was not difficult to see Feng Yao's excitement when he saw the person in front of him. How could someone as perceptive as Huan Ling not notice Feng Yao's gaze? When she met that gaze, Huan Ling could not deny that she felt nothing. It should be said that her heart was disturbed from the moment Feng Yao appeared.
After a long time, Huan Ling finally sorted out her disturbed emotions. She forced a smile and said: "What do you mean?"
Canfeng spread his hands and said: "It means exactly what it says, plus...your life."
Canfeng's words sounded light and nonchalant, but they contained a threatening tone, and anyone with a little intelligence could hear it.
"It's a very tempting deal." Phantom said with a smile. Although their tones were calm, everyone understood the underlying meaning. It was admirable that they could talk about this with such an attitude, but it was also intimidating and frightening.
"No matter how tempting it is, you have to accept it." Canfeng shrugged, his attitude looking surprisingly calm.
Is there really someone? Putting aside the attitude, the content of the topic also made Xia Wenyu and his subordinates shudder, because the Wind Wolf members never cared about their own life and death, of course, it was different when facing their own people. Because they knew them too well, they were afraid sometimes.
Huan Ling's eyes stayed on Can Feng, as if he wanted to see something from him, or was it difficult to give this answer? The result was neither, because the next sentence made some people feel desperate. Huan Ling said: "Unless I die."
Huan Ling's meaning was very clear, but it could also be said to be vague. However, it made Feng Yao whimper from his throat repeatedly, and he seemed very excited and anxious?
Ignoring Feng Yao's broken sobs, Canfeng half-closed his eyes and looked at Huanling, and slowly said: "Do you really want to die?"
"Of course not. Why should I die if I can live?" replied Huan Ling.
Canfeng glanced at Feng Yao and asked: "What about him?"
If Huanling's previous answer was roundabout, then she had to face it now. Canfeng mentioned this very skillfully and at the right time, which happened to hit the mark of Huanling's concerns.
For Canfeng, Huanling's answer didn't matter. But for Feng Yao, it was different. His eyes, with almost no slits between them, were full of expectation and desire. Unfortunately, Huanling's next words extinguished the last remaining fire burning in his eyes.
"It's up to you."
Huanling's cold tone reached everyone's ears. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that since Canfeng used Feng Yao as a bargaining chip, it must be related to Huanling. But who would have expected Huanling's reaction to be so heartless?
Canfeng's eyebrows moved slightly, he didn't seem surprised, he looked at Huanling and then at Feng Yao, and chuckled: "Sure enough, this is like you."
Canfeng's words added a frost to Huanling's ruthless words. Yinyin looked at Canfeng with an incredible look, as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't speak. Xia Wenyu also saw something. He didn't have much contact with Feng Yao, but he still recognized that the man in front of him who was destroyed and unrecognizable was Feng Yao. From Feng Yao's previous behavior of following Huanling like a shadow, with a man's intuition, he believed that Feng Yao loved Huanling deeply, and Huanling couldn't have been unaware of it, but she was so decisive. She should have thought of it earlier, right? It's just that she couldn't accept it so easily for a while.
"In that case, there's no point in keeping him." As he said this, Canfeng raised his hand and waved it , the meaning of which was obvious.
A man in white immediately swung his sword and slashed at Feng Yao without hesitation. Yin Yin couldn't bear to see this scene because she couldn't make a sound, so she turned her head away. In a flash, the sword of the man in white was extremely fast, but when the sword in his hand almost touched Feng Yao's neck, he stopped?
Canfeng seemed to have sensed something unusual. When he turned his head to look at the man in white who had stopped moving, the sword in the man's hand slipped from his hand and fell to the ground. Then the man fell to the ground without any warning. This situation surprised everyone.
Yin Yin first heard the sound of a weapon falling to the ground and then the sound of a heavy object falling down before she turned around. She looked at the man in white who fell down inexplicably, and then looked at the reactions of the others. They were all dumbfounded. Yin Yin felt confused. What on earth had happened?
In the suffocating silence, Canfeng slowly turned his head to look at Huanling, the muscles at the corners of his lips twitched slightly, and then he quickly raised an arc and said: "Isn't it up to me? In that case, what's the point of you trying to stop it?"
When these words were spoken, everyone was surprised, because in everyone's eyes, Huanling had not moved at all, let alone made any attack. Why would Canfeng say that?
Perhaps it was because of Canfeng's words that a ray of light rekindled in Feng Yao's dead eyes. He looked straight at Huanling. The light seemed to rekindle hope, but this rekindled hope was once again extinguished by Huanling's words.
"I've changed my mind. Rather than letting him die in your hands, I'd rather free him with my own hands." said Huanling.
Feng Yao looked at Huan Ling with some confusion in his eyes, then slowly lowered his head and stopped looking at Huan Ling.
