CHAPTER 272: 272: JUST TO SURVIVE

"How did you know!"

Li Yan’s expression started to become dangerous, as if a secret had been touched.

"It was what you said... what you said when you were hypnotized..." Chuan Er finally grabbed onto hope and said urgently, "Devil King, trust me, you were really hypnotized just now... that woman did it, we don’t have much time now, only if you and I work together can we escape..."

"You want to team up with me?" Did he hear that correctly! A bandit wants to team up with Special Trainee King, can they really work together?

"The Fifth Master wants to backstab me, he wants to swallow me up, using me to blow up the mountain. Although I’m ruthless, I’m not one to throw away my life, nor do I want to be falsely accused and framed like this..."

Chuan Er ultimately still wanted to survive, he wasn’t unafraid of death; on the contrary, he was greedy for life and feared death. He loved the beauty of this world, he wanted to obtain more things, and it was precisely because of this that he had done so many things.

However...

In this very second, he completely regretted it, because he realized he had been used, and used thoroughly!

"I’ll go down the mountain with you! You know what the outcome will be!"

Li Yan is a special trainee, and his mission this time is to destroy the bandits’ lair, capturing Chuan Er is one of his objectives.

"I know!"

How could Chuan Er not understand? He was very clear in his heart and said, "As long as I can survive! I’m willing to be caught by you, and I know a lot about the Fifth Master’s affairs, I can provide evidence, it should be enough to avoid the death penalty!"

That was only natural!

The best outcome at the moment could be no different.

Li Yan focused on Chuan Er, not saying a word for a long time, he just looked at him, seemingly savoring the truth in his words.

Chuan Er was anxious; time was pressing, there wasn’t much time to dawdle...

At this moment...

...

"Has anyone seen Chuan Er?"

A female voice asking resounded, enough to make Chuan Er shudder all over. Chuan Er hurriedly crouched down, observing the movement outside.

Gu Tong was leading a fully armed search squad, looking for him everywhere!

...

Chuan Er’s heart tensed up, he pointed outside and lowered his voice, "It’s her, she did it, I’m not lying to you..."

Li Yan pressed his lips together; he knew Chuan Er wasn’t lying, he was just shocked!

He never thought that Gu Tong could actually accomplish such a thing...

He remembered that earlier in the warehouse, Gu Tong told him many things could happen and asked him to adapt accordingly, but he hadn’t understood her actions then! Yet at this moment, he completely understood.

The method she used was to fully carry out a backstab strategy, and even let Chuan Er actively seek him out for protection. Is this something an ordinary person could think of...?

"Devil King, let’s join forces! This is our only way to survive now..."

Chuan Er forcibly pulled Li Yan out of his thoughts, he didn’t care what he was thinking, his only thought now was to get down the mountain, to leave this damn place!

"When we get down the mountain, I won’t go easy on you!" Li Yan threatened, also subtly hinting for Chuan Er not to play tricks, but this sentence was also a symbolic agreement to the proposal.

"Alright..." Chuan Er quickly agreed.

His heart was filled with joy, as if he saw the flame of hope. For the first time, he could strongly feel how important it was to survive...
