Chapter 1435 - 643: The Dawn of Hope (2)

"But apart from the Thunder Cloud, we also need to face the blockade line of the Foolish Underworld. Without some strength to back you up, it won’t work. So even if Young Master Diao wants to help his friends leave Thunder City, the Rebel Army has to pay a significant price to make it happen."

The words made Fang Yu furrow his brows.

"So now..."

"Now, we have just sent people to various city gates to observe. Just like your friends, many people inside the city are planning to flee Thunder City during this crisis. Their outcomes will serve as valuable reference information for us."

Fang Yu understood.

The Rebel Army wasn’t planning on risking their own lives to test the strength of the Thunder Cloud or its target-seeking mechanism. Instead, they were letting other people in the city, who were panicking on their own and preparing to escape, be the first batch of test subjects. It’s even possible that someone in the Rebel Army was specifically spreading rumors to accelerate the escape actions of some people to facilitate this.

Fang Yu was thoughtful.

Although the Rebel Army was taking continuous actions, their overall direction was still to survive or die with Thunder City, without any intention of abandoning the city.

But if the army attacked, Fang Yu felt that the Ten Major Families were uncertain, but the Rebel Army and the Foolish Underworld likely couldn’t withstand the impact.

The fate of the common folks in the city goes without saying. It’s bound to be devastating.

The only hope is that, as Ding Hui predicted, the Capital’s army isn’t here to conquer Thunder City.

Using the word ’conquer’ to describe the army dispatched by the Capital feels a bit odd to Fang Yu.

It’s clearly Great Xia’s land, Great Xia’s city. The Capital sending troops down should be a case of a superior surveying their territory, ideally presenting a united front.

But whether it’s Tianyuan Town or Thunder City, they essentially govern themselves independently.

This Capital army coming down to Thunder City has instead become an outsider, an invader.

This fragmented situation with the Da Xia Dynasty not stepping in to manage it is rather strange.

Having roughly understood the situation of the Rebel Army, Fang Yu bid farewell and withdrew.

The main reason was that the Rebel Army didn’t assign any tasks to him; all the tasks were piled on Qiu Xiaoping and other veteran Ministers.

Almost sold out by them earlier, it’s not just that Fang Yu doesn’t trust the higher-ups, but even the higher-ups don’t dare to trust Fang Yu.

However, for now, since the final confrontation hasn’t happened, on the surface, Fang Yu is still considered part of the Rebel Army, one of its Ministers.

There’s an old saying: the more people there are, the greater the strength. The Rebel Army doesn’t have any reason to push someone who could help them away right now.

After Fang Yu left, the silent Nian Jiachen and the veteran You Shouliang immediately began to speak.

"Ever since we agreed to the President’s order to hand him over to the Foolish Underworld, Diao De Yi has not been on the same path as us. No matter how much effort is made to salvage that relationship, it’s already useless," Nian Jiachen said coldly.

"Indeed, Diao De Yi within the Rebel Army is now a potential hidden danger that could explode at any moment. It’s not just about excluding him from the Rebel Army but also about keeping him under control to prevent him from leaking secrets or defecting," the veteran You Shouliang agreed.

But their words only earned a glance from Xu Qingqi and Qiu Xiaoping; no one else spoke.

With neither the President nor the Deputy Commander indicating what to do about Fang Yu, their statement was naturally left to cool off once more.

Nian Jiachen and the veteran You Shouliang became silent and didn’t bring up the matter again.

...

On the other side, upon returning to Ding Hui’s laboratory, Fang Yu immediately saw Ding Hui pouring some liquid into various size holes on Song Xi’s skin, as if pouring cement. It made Fang Yu’s scalp tingle.

"Be careful not to kill her... You promised Song Zhenrong to save her life."

Without turning back, Ding Hui said, "Don’t worry, a dead person can’t become an array eye."

Fang Yu hesitated, "Are you still going through with that plan? Song Zhenrong was willing to do anything to save his sister..."

"I know what I’m doing."

Ding Hui paused her work, looked back at Fang Yu with a smile, saying, "Husband always worries unnecessarily. I’m not cold-blooded. I can feel Captain Song’s sincere emotions. Such a touching sibling affection. For Captain Song’s sake, I will certainly cure Song Xi!"

...Nonsense!

You sounded so emotionless, like reciting a script, yet you claim you will surely cure her...

Although Ding Hui was rather indifferent to life, this time, Fang Yu hoped she wouldn’t mess around.

The blockade methods of the Ten Major Families and the Foolish Underworld were already clear.

The Thunder Cloud blockade of the Ten Major Families’ Tongtian Ten Pillars, the Foolish Underworld’s city gate blockade personnel. As long as these two blockades are broken and they don’t encounter the Capital’s army coming head-on, they can smoothly escape Thunder City.

If so, Ding Hui’s methods may not necessarily need to be used, just focus on healing the person properly...

Just as Fang Yu was about to persuade Ding Hui a bit more, suddenly Ding Hui picked up a tube of blood from the table.

"By the way, I’ve isolated Diao Ruonian’s blood. I added something and configured it. Do you want to try drinking it?"

Big brother’s blood has been successfully separated?!

Ding Hui sounded so casual that Fang Yu almost didn’t react.

Once he realized what this meant, he became instantly excited.

Since he absorbed his second sister, quite some time has passed.

In such a long time, Fang Yu was already starting to forget his second sister’s voice and appearance, or even how to face her.
