Now, he was feeling some regret, wondering why he had taken on this task to please the second young master.
“These country bumpkins, really not afraid of death…”
The effeminate leader muttered under his breath, then said, “I came to make peace. Wild Wolf Town belongs to Han family. Two sides have to come in term…”
Make peace?!
Zhao Yu had thought that the Han family had come to raise war against them, but they were actually here to seek peace.
He had already thought about wiping these people out and quickly relocating his base.
Meng Xian, standing nearby, sighed in relief and quickly said to Zhao Yu, “It’s best if we can make peace. We can’t afford to provoke the Han family…”
Eagle also quickly joined in to call for peace.
The effeminate leader’s confidence surged. He was about to speak, but remembering Zhao Yu’s desperado demeanor, he decided to keep quiet and closed his mouth.
Peace was definitely not possible!
Zhao Yu had nearly died in the last ambush. How could peace be so easily achieved?
Moreover, the mission of revenge offered a thousand technology points, which he did not want to miss.
However, the other party represented the Han family. To reject them outright meant a direct confrontation with the Han family.
Therefore, Zhao Yu planned to fool these people for now and then swiftly deal with Wild Wolf Town.
“Fine, since the Han family has spoken, I, Zhao Yu, will agree with the Han family and spare Wild Wolf Town!”
Meng Xian and others breathed a sigh of relief.
They had no grudge with Wild Wolf Town; they had only declared war in support of Zhao Yu.
If both sides could make peace, it was the best outcome.
The effeminate leader didn’t dare to say anything more and quickly finalize thing, “Alright, I will tell the second young master. This matter is settled, let’s go…”
He hurriedly led his men away from the scene.
Those left behind were stunned.
They hadn’t expected the Han family’s people to be so coward.
However, Zhao Yu didn’t let his guard down. Although the effeminate leader was incompetent, the soldiers he brought were quite well trained.
Zhao Yu even sensed the aura of marine infantry men, signifying elite soldiers.
After the Han family left, everyone else also stood up from their kneeling positions, looking at Zhao Yu with shock and admiration.
No one had expected Zhao Yu to scare away the Han family’s people.
Especially Xu Xiu Lan’s three sisters, who looked at Zhao Yu with confusion and bewilderment.
They hadn’t expected the man who had once been so close to them to become so unfamiliar, like a stranger.
A Han family soldier suddenly ran back.
“Hmm?!”
Everyone looked at him, puzzled.
The soldier spoke calmly, “I have a message…”
“Speak!” Zhao Yu said succinctly.
“The second young master of the Han family says that Zhao Family Fort and Meng House Village must pay compensation worth one million black rock coins, or else prepare for the Han family’s army to sweep through!”
“What?!” Meng Xian and others were shocked, almost jumping up in surprise.
Zhao Yu also didn’t expect that the other party didn’t dare to say it in front of him and only said it after he left.
The soldier clearly had no right to negotiate. After saying this, he turned around and left.
Zhao Yu did not stop him.
“What should we do now…” Meng Xian looked troubled, “One million black rock coins, where can we get that?!”
“Commander Zhao, we can’t afford this one million…” her hope resting on Zhao Yu.
However, Zhao Yu didn’t respond immediately.
Instead, he closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
Paying the money was out of the question for him. After all, he had already decided to wipe out Wild Wolf Town.
So, the only thing to consider was how to deal with the Han family’s army after destroying Wild Wolf Town.
After pondering for a moment, a doubt arose in his mind.
Judging by the behavior of the Han family, who seemed so far removed and domineering.
Why would they seek peace instead of crushing them, especially since they were people from Wild Wolf Town?
After all, he had killed nearly two hundred people from Wild Wolf Town.
Such a blatant challenge and yet no reaction from them?!
Unless…
Zhao Yu thought of the second son mentioned by the soldier. Unless Wild Wolf
Town wasn’t really belonged to the Han family but only belonged to that second son of the Han family.
And that second son didn’t have so many soldiers at his disposal.
Unless it involved the interests of the Han family, they had no reason to deploy troops to help.
After all, going to war meant people would die.
Especially considering his group was capable to wipe out two hundred armed personnel of Wild Wolf Town.
How many men would the Han family have to lose to take them down?
Three hundred? Four hundred?!
With this realization, Zhao Yu’s expression relaxed.
The Han family was not monolithic so let it be.
Surviving in Black Rock City relied on strength and interest.
Why would they engage in a losing deal?!
“Commander Zhao?!” As Zhao Yu smiled, Meng Xian called out anxiously.
“What’s up?!”
Meng Xian looked nervous, “We don’t have that much money. One million is not a small number…”
Zhao Yu chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, leave the one million to us. You don’t have to pay a penny…”
“Ah?”
Meng Xian was overjoyed.
“Commander Zhao is so generous…”
She remarked, “I never thought you’d be a true hero, taking responsibility for your actions…”
Praising him cost her nothing.
If she knew Zhao Yu’s plan was to annihilate Wild Wolf Town and offend the Han family, she probably wouldn’t be able to laugh.
Zhao Yu smiled without a word, and after a brief chat, he led his people back to the base.
He has to quickly recruit troops and attack Wild Wolf Town!
This time, he would use all available resources at his disposal!
