âZhao Family TownâŠâ
Luo Bing hesitated for a second and nodded.â Okay!â
âAlright, you can leave first. Iâll call you when the letter is finished!â
âYes, my lady!â
After the irrelevant people left, Xu Jia Lu took out a pen and paper and began to write.
The opening sentence of the letter clearly stated her identity, especially emphasizing that she, Xu Jia Lu, was from the first noble family of Black Rock
City.
The rest of the letter was relatively unimportant, discussing things like post-apocalyptic development.
There was nothing particularly useful throughout the letter, except for a casual mention at the end about her upcoming birthday in half a month, asking if
Zhao Yu was interested in celebrating with her.
Xu Jia Luâs true intention in writing this letter was casual but aimed to test Zhao Yu, to see if the party he had found was equally strong with her family.
From her understanding of Zhao Yu, his ability to produce tanks and such a large force meant he definitely had support, likely from a woman.
If Zhao Yu was willing to come for her birthday, it would imply that the woman behind him was minor family. If he refused, it would suggest that the woman behind him was powerful enough that he wouldnât want to leave her side.
âThis bastardâŠâ
As she wrote, Xu Jia Lu became increasingly angry.
She hadnât expected the man who had taken her virginity to be so despicable, constantly pursuing women.
Even after the apocalypse, he hadnât changed this habit and had risen to power through the support of some unknown woman.
â âCould it be those two?!â
Xu Jia Lu hesitated. Among Zhao Yuâs previous four girlfriends, two came from the families similar to hers. While not as powerful as the Xu family now, they were still influential.
One was based in Peace Town Town, and the other belonged to a noble family
in a nearby city.
If he had their support, it could explain how Zhao Yu managed to defeat the
Han family army.
She immediately took out her phone and made a call.
Although their friendship wasnât what it used to be after the apocalypse, they still maintained communication channels as representatives of their respective powers.
To her surprise, both of them were even more shocked than she was.
âZhao Yu is still alive?!â
âThat damned man, how did he not die in this apocalypseâŠ
After probing, Xu Jia Lu sensed their reactions didnât seem feigned.
This made her uncomfortable.
âCould it really be another woman?!â
Unable to figure it out, she decided not to dwell on it and called Luo Bing to deliver the letter to Zhao Family Town.
âBrother Lil, what do we do now?!â
In a ravine in the wilderness, several men dressed in city guard uniforms followed behind Lii Ming Yuan.
Lii Ming Yuan sighed deeply and said, âWe killed Han Yong De, so Black Rock
City definitely wonât accept us anymoreâŠâ
âI suspect our names are also notorious in the black marketâŠ
âNow, we only have two choicesâŠâ
âWhich two?!â
âThe first is to leave the area of Black Rock City, escaping to a place two to
three hundred kilometers away to surviveâŠâ
âBut if we choose this path, the Black Rock coins we brought will become worthless, and weâll have to fend for ourselves from then onâŠâ
The men exchanged glances, clearly reluctant to give up their current status. Although they were from the lower ranks of Black Rock City, they were still city guards with not insignificant benefits and a decent standard of living.
The idea of starting over in the wilderness, fighting and struggling for survival, was somewhat unappealing to them.
âWhat about the second option?!â
âThe second option is to seek refuge with Zhao YuâŠ
âAh?!â
The men were shocked. âZhao Yu, the one who annihilated the Han family army?!â
âExactly!â
âZhao Yuâs ability to annihilate a thousand men from the Han family army shows heâs not weak. Clearly, heâs not an ordinary wilderness force; there must be someone behind himâŠâ
â â No matter where he comes from or the intentions of the person behind him, the fact that he fought the Han family army means theyâre now irreconcilable enemiesâŠâ
âGoing to him, we might find a ray of hope for survivalâŠ
Someone nervously asked, âBut what if he turns us in?!
Lu Ming Yuan spread his hands, âWho knows? Maybe he wonât, maybe he will!â âBut my thought is, we could sneak in quietly, change our identities, perhaps as people of the wildernessâŠâ
âLetâs hide these cars and money together, keep them concealed, and once weâve settled in Zhao Family Town, weâll retrieve them quietly and find a way to sell them offâŠâ
The amount of money they had brought from the city was significant, enough for them to do many things.
After discussing, they decided to followLii Ming Yuanâs plan and sneak into Zhao Family Town to assess the situation.
Little did they know, as soon as they arrived at Zhao Family Town, they were captured and brought before Zhao Yu.
Looking at the six men kneeling before him, Zhao Yu couldnât help but laugh.
âI hear you killed Han Yong De?â
He had scouts in Black Rock City, so he naturally learned about Han Yong Deâs death in the city and the news of six city guards fleeing.
The six men were terrified and quickly bowed their heads, begging for mercy.
One of them boasted about seeking to join Zhao Yu.
Lii Ming Yuan didnât dare to be presumptuous, hurriedly explaining, âTo be honest, we didnât recognize Han Yong De when he came back, and we were a bit too harsh on him. He threatened to kill our familiesâŠâ
âWe had no choice but to kill him first and then escape earlyâŠ
Seeing his relatively honest attitude, Zhao Yu casually asked, âWhat brings you here?â
