They even thought that if something happened to them in the future, where could they expect Ji Chengtian to rescue them?
At this moment, they all had a sense of lips perishing and teeth feeling cold. So someone couldn’t help but urge, "City Lord, Liu Yue and the others just went in not long ago, they should still be alive, let’s hurry to rescue them! The longer we delay, the more dangerous it gets!"
Ji Chengtian gave him a deep look, then suddenly said, "Well then, you lead a thousand men as the vanguard now, and I’ll watch from behind."
Upon hearing this, that person’s heart completely cooled. His gaze flickered, but in the end, he did not refuse, instead he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I’ll take people to the rescue right away!" After speaking, he got off the car. The others watched his retreating figure, and the thought suddenly came to mind—the wind is cold by the river of Yi, a brave man departs, never to return.
They all understood that when that person nodded in agreement just now, he actually knew the odds were against him on this venture. Thus, some hesitated for a moment, and then two people suggested going to help, worried that the person wouldn’t be able to handle it alone.
After mulling it over, Ji Chengtian nodded and didn’t refuse their request. As soon as he gave the green light, the two got off the car, climbed onto the lead truck, and prepared to head out for the rescue. Then, Ji Chengtian ordered, "Follow behind them."
Gu Yong watched the others run to rescue people and felt his face burning, as if he had been slapped several times. He felt very remorseful; he didn’t want to ignore the rescue, it was just that he was genuinely afraid, and that couldn’t be blamed on him.
That glance just now gave him a very strong sense of crisis; he intuitively knew the other party was extremely dangerous, and an encounter meant certain death! As he saw those people departing, he quickly reminded, "There is a very dangerous person in Peace Base, be extremely cautious when you go!"
Those leaving didn’t speak but only extended their hands to gently wave, a silent farewell and also a signal that they heard.
The distance to Peace Base wasn’t far, so their vehicles didn’t take long to reach what seemed like a dragon’s lair and tiger’s den—Peace Base. Then, the people inside the cars saw Liu Yue, who had the "incident" not long ago, and Deng Hong, Meng Ping, and Wan Hao who had "incidents" yesterday, standing on the Protection Wall, looking unharmed and not like they were under anyone’s control.
