The Herbal Scents of Farm Life-Chapter 2976 - 2977: Ungrateful

Lin Caisang glanced at Yuan Jue from the corner of her eye.

"Captain Yuan, it might be better if you don’t go."

It’s not that she didn’t trust Yuan Jue’s intentions, but she feared that before he could even do anything, he might end up like Lu Tianfeng, collapsing.

After all, she and Sui Zimo had been trained, but Yuan Jue’s reflexes were nowhere near as fast as theirs. One careless move, and he could end up just like Lu Tianfeng.

"To avoid unnecessary harm, at that time..." someone might need to keep an eye on him.

Yuan Jue: "..."

He believed he was quite capable, and during these days in the Haikuo Forest, his skills had significantly improved. He could genuinely say he was no longer the person he once was!

No matter what, scouting ahead should always be doable, right?

Why did it seem, in Lin Caisang’s eyes, he was still an incompetent person who knew nothing?

"Yes, Captain Yuan, you better stay here. This place looks calm, but it’s eerily strange. You never know, in a place that seems completely safe, there could be unseen dangers lurking."

Captain Liu, seeing Yuan Jue’s helpless expression, also advised him.

It wasn’t that he loved to criticize. It’s just that with their level of skills, it was unrealistic to compare them to Sui Zimo. So he thought it best for them to stay put and observe what the corpse-controlling talisman truly looked like.

"Captain, let’s just wait here. This area isn’t that large, one person can easily explore it. Young Master Sui can handle it." A female team member also spoke to their captain.

Yuan Jue: "..."

It seemed, aside from himself, no one else really had confidence in him.

But it didn’t matter. Though he was a big leap behind Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang, compared to others, he was already quite outstanding.

Not the best, but certainly better than many, right?

"Very well, I’ll just wait here." He nodded, agreeing.

On the other side, Lin Changhong and Yue Chushui watched the old clan leader with sinister smiles, listening to his constant screams, they were immediately satisfied.

"What more do you want to know? I don’t know anything, I really don’t!"

Cold sweat streamed down the old clan leader’s body, freezing due to the chill in the air, almost encasing him entirely in ice.

What could he do? These people were his nemesis. He had revealed so much, yet they were still unsatisfied, still wanted to know more.

How could these people be so greedy? Didn’t they understand that knowing too much could lead to a swift demise?

"You don’t know?"

Yue Chushui stared at him coldly, letting out a sneer.

"Since you know nothing, then there’s no need for you to stay alive, is there?"

Lin Changhong raised an eyebrow at Yue Chushui, swiftly drawing the long sword from its scabbard with a ’swish’, preparing to strike the old clan leader.

"No, don’t come any closer!"

The old clan leader, terrified, tried desperately to shrink back, but found himself completely unable to move.

He knew full well, if he truly held no secrets, these people would really take his life.

Why were these people so cruel? Clearly, he had never wronged them before, even leading them to temporarily reside in a cave overnight.

Not only were they ungrateful, but they even repaid kindness with enmity, wanting him dead.

"I’ll talk, I’ll talk."

"Speak!"

Yue Chushui spat out another word.
