Chapter 124 Going All Out? With What? (Please Subscribe)

In a room in Zhao Family Fortress, Wei Tiangong and several others sat around a table, while a woman beside them whispered something.

As they listened, anger appeared on their faces.

"Those beasts!"

Wei Tianyuan's eyes blazed with fury as he said, "We work so hard for them, and they dare to lay a finger on my sister-in-law? Are they even human? I'm going to go out and fight them!"

"Don't act impulsively!"

"Tengen, calm down!"

"Tengen!"

The group was startled and quickly grabbed him.

What a joke! There are only a few of them, how can they possibly compete with Zhao Da?

The latter is a late-stage martial artist specializing in meat refining; he can easily draw a bow weighing several hundred pounds.

The strongest among them is only at the first level of Body Tempering, and they have been starving these past few days, so they are not much stronger than ordinary people.

"Tianyuan, don't be impulsive."

Wei Tiangong shook his head, his brows furrowing into a deep frown.

He could sense that things were getting increasingly out of his control.

"Brother, what other options do you think we can have besides this?"

Wei Tianyuan said with red eyes, "I originally thought that I could get more prey by relying on my skills after coming here. Who knew that every time we hunted, the prey had to be handed over to Zhao San and the others for distribution. We got the least. They said that we were newcomers and that's how it should be. Fine, I accepted it. But later, that guy Zhao San kicked us out of the hunting team without saying a word and made us build a fence."

We tolerated that, but now they're actually making advances on my sister-in-law, and they even say they're not afraid of us finding out! It's absolutely outrageous!

The other two or three people echoed this sentiment.

Deeply regretful.

If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have come here in the first place.

"Tiangong," someone thought of this and had a sudden inspiration, saying, "In my opinion, we definitely can't win if we fight these people to the death. Staying here will probably only lead to our demise. Why don't we run away?"

"run?"

Wei Tiangong looked at him, "Where do you think you're going?"

"Chenjia Village."

The man said without hesitation, "Have you forgotten what Guodong said last time in Songjiabao? He'll definitely welcome us if we go back."

This made even Wei Tianyuan interested.

"Yeah, brother, we're not on the same wavelength as Zhao Da and his gang at all. We might as well go back sooner, even if life is tougher."

"Going back? That's easier said than done."

Wei Tiangong sighed, glanced at his wife beside him, and said, "You all know Zhao Family Fort. It's easy to get in but hard to get out. Even if the few of us manage to slip away, what about our families? Taking them with us won't be easy."

The group immediately lowered their heads.

Yes, they are not alone; they have elderly parents and young children to care for.

Trying to slip away right under the noses of the Zhao family gang was practically a pipe dream.

"There's one more thing, have you thought about it?"

Wei Tiangong smiled bitterly, "Even if we do manage to escape back to Chen Family Village, given Zhao San's character, what will he do after he finds out? Do you think he'll act like nothing happened and ignore it?"

"this……"

Wei Tianyuan's mouth was agape.

He seemed to understand the meaning behind his brother's words.

Given Zhao San's personality, it's possible he'll go to Chenjia Village to demand people back.

At that time, they might cause Chenjiazhai a lot of trouble.

Wei Tiangong sighed.

There was actually one more thing he didn't say: even if they left Zhao Family Fortress and didn't go to Chen Family Village, Zhao San and the others would probably go looking for Chen Guodong and his group once they found out.

He felt deeply guilty ever since he left Chenjia Village with his men last time.

Now, how can we knowingly run away and cause trouble for Chenjia Village?

The atmosphere in the room became so quiet that it was almost suffocating for everyone.

"So, we're stuck here for good?" a man said in despair.

"You're dreaming. Right now, we can't even get out of here," the person next to him said with a wry smile.

Wei Tianyuan clenched his fist.

Then, it let go weakly.

"Brother, are we just going to do nothing like this?"

Wei Tiangong remained silent.

He genuinely couldn't find a solution.

He wasn't afraid of death, nor was he afraid to fight Zhao Da and his men, but what about his wife and daughter?

Is this God's punishment for abandoning Chenjia Village?

Just then, footsteps sounded outside, mixed with worried conversations.

"What's going on? It's so late, why haven't they come back yet?"

"Yes, they usually come back in the afternoon, but today it's almost dark."

"Could something have happened?"

"Don't talk nonsense. With Third Brother leading the way, how could anything happen? They'll be back soon."

The sound gradually faded into the distance.

The people inside the room looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Has Zhao San and the others not returned yet?"

Wei Tianyuan was speechless.

"Okay, it seems so? That explains why there was no activity in the village when I came back today."

"That shouldn't be the case. They'd usually be back by now. Could something have happened?"

The group was shocked.

You have to understand that Zhao San was leading twenty or thirty men; if something happened, it would be no laughing matter.

"Let's go check out the situation first."

Wei Tiangong stood up.

He didn't know what to do next. Maybe if he went to check the situation, he might be able to come up with a solution.

The group went outside and blended into the crowd.

It was quickly confirmed that Zhao San and the others had indeed not returned; none of them had come back since they set off in the morning!

By this time, it was completely dark, and the roars of beasts echoed in the distance.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps sounded from behind. A burly man, nearly two meters tall, led a group of people and quickly approached.

"It's Brother Zhao!"

"Brother Zhao is here!"

Seeing this, everyone felt as if they had found a pillar of support and started chattering all at once. Suddenly, a loud shout rang out.

"Shut up, all of you!"

Instantly, the arena fell silent, everyone lowered their heads, their brains buzzing.

Wei Tiangong and the others quickly lowered their heads; it was not a wise choice to let the other party notice them at this time.

Zhao Da's face was grim. After scanning the crowd, he looked outside and asked:

"Has my third brother not returned yet?"

"no."

The person next to him shook his head, his face full of sorrow. "It wasn't just him; none of the others came back."

These two men looked somewhat similar to Zhao San, but they were much more robust and had different temperaments.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Da's expression turned even uglier.

Has something really happened?

But the third brother has gone hunting at least eight hundred times, if not a thousand, and he always has so many people with him.

Even if something happens, surely someone will come back to report it?

Why is there no one here?

"Big brother, perhaps Third Brother and the others went too far and couldn't make it back in time, so they found a temporary place to stay?" someone behind them said. "With Third Brother and the others' strength, they could kill even a mid-level ferocious beast."

"Yes, perhaps it was because they encountered a mid-level ferocious beast and someone got injured, which caused the delay? They should be back tomorrow."

I think so too.

The men behind her spoke with fawning expressions, including Du Feng, who had threatened Huang Sulan earlier.

The Zhao brothers, Zhao Da and Zhao Er, looked a little better.

Deep down, that's what they really hoped for.

Be careful when you go hunting, and don't provoke any ferocious beasts you shouldn't. You'll most likely be fine.

But it's better to be safe than sorry.

If you encounter several mid-level or even high-level ferocious beasts, the situation will be very bad.

"Go, call everyone here, let's go out and search together."

The next moment, Zhao Da uttered a sentence.

Everyone was taken aback.

"What, didn't you hear me?"

Zhao Da glanced at everyone and said coldly, "I said call everyone here and go out to search."

Instantly, everyone, including Wei Tiangong and the others, felt a chill rise from the soles of their feet.

Are you kidding me?

It's nighttime, and there are so many ferocious beasts outside. These people have poor eyesight at night; they're lucky if they can see 23 meters.

Those ferocious beasts have exceptionally good night vision and an even more sensitive sense of smell; they can tell where you are from hundreds of meters away.

Aren't they just courting death by going out?

Even the seven or eight martial artists who had followed earlier turned pale.

Zhao Da is a late-stage Body Refinement martial artist, but they aren't.

The most powerful one is only at the second level of Body Tempering. Wouldn't going out there be suicide?

"Big brother."

Seeing this, Zhao Er said in a low voice, "It's already so late, and it's so big outside. Where are we supposed to find them? Why don't we wait until tomorrow? If Third Brother and the others haven't returned by tomorrow morning, then we can send people out to look for them."

It wasn't that he was reluctant to part with everyone, but rather that there was no point in doing so.

These people might not even make it 500 meters before being attacked and wiped out by the ferocious beast.

What lies hidden in the darkness, no one knows.

Even he didn't dare to risk going out.

Everyone looked at Zhao Da with apprehension.

The martial artists who had spoken earlier dared not utter a word, for fear of displeasing Zhao Da.

Zhao Da looked around, and everyone who saw him trembled with fear.

"A bunch of useless trash, what's the point of keeping you around?"

He cursed angrily.

Everyone lowered their heads, a hint of resentment flashing in their eyes.

In fact, all of them who are waiting here have relatives in the hunting party.

But with each hunt bringing back so much, they could only get a very small portion, enough to last them at most two or three days.

Therefore, their family members had to constantly go out hunting.

And ordinary people are in an even worse situation.

Not only did he have to endure hunger every day, but he also had to build houses and walls. If he was even slightly negligent, he would be punched and kicked by the men behind him.

Just now,

Zhao Da actually wanted them to go out and die.

If he's so capable, why doesn't he go out by himself?

"Call everyone else over here," Zhao Da's voice rang out. "Tonight, unless Lao San comes back, no one else is allowed to rest. You're all staying here!"

"yes!"

Upon hearing this, the people behind him finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran away.

Zhao Da looked at the houses behind him, his eyes growing colder.

These three brothers took such great risks to support this group of people.

These people are still hiding inside the house, refusing to come out.

It seems I've been too lenient with them. If the third brother doesn't get into trouble this time, fine. But if he does, I'll deal with them properly!
