After Rebirth, My Fiancé Helps Me Avenge the Wicked Scum-Chapter 996 - 995: He Is the True Mastermind Behind the Scenes

Chapter 995: He Is the True Mastermind

Everyone’s actions came to a halt.

If their actions were deemed desertion, they couldn’t leave. It’s not just about what others might say about them; they themselves wouldn’t allow themselves to be deserters.

Nan Mingzhu wasn’t genuinely stupid, but she was used to being arrogant and didn’t like to think things through.

At this moment, she realized that this Nangong Chief was Nan Ming’s backer, and it seemed like he wanted to kill Gu Dongxing. The reason for killing Gu Dongxing might be Jiang Mengyu.

She suddenly thought of a question: the backer of Nan Ming wanted to kill Gu Dongxing because of Jiang Mengyu, but what if Gu Dongxing wasn’t with Jiang Mengyu?

She urgently said to Gu Dongxing, "Brother Gu, break up with Jiang Mengyu. As long as you’re willing to swear to be with me, I’ll tell the Chief not to kill you!"

Everyone looked at Nan Mingzhu as if she were an idiot.

Everyone had guessed that Nangong wanted Gu Dongxing’s life. But can this be said so openly?

Moreover, calling her stupid, she could grasp the key point. Calling her smart, she couldn’t even see the affection between Gu Dongxing and Jiang Mengyu, and at this point, she still dared to desire Gu Dongxing.

Besides, not long ago, she was flirting with Cheng Jiuhe, and now she’s turning to Gu Dongxing, how do others view her?

Furthermore, who does she think she is? Would that Nangong Chief listen to her? Does she think saying not to kill would change anything? Everyone knows she’s just cannon fodder; Nangong even wants to kill her, let alone listen to her.

Although everyone despised Nan Mingzhu, her words about desertion made everyone feel conflicted.

If they stay, they become cannon fodder; if they leave, they become deserters!

What should they do?

Jiang Mengyu was very angry. With Nan Mingzhu saying this, would these people still dare to leave?

Whether they were from the Dragon Team or the army, they prioritized the lives and property of civilians.

Previously, they only thought that they would become cannon fodder, so they wanted to flee quickly. But now, with Nan Mingzhu pointing it out, could they still leave?

Nan Mingzhu obviously didn’t want them to leave; she probably wanted to harm everyone, especially herself, right?

Because as long as Gu Dongxing and Cheng Jiuhe didn’t leave, she absolutely wouldn’t leave.

"You are not deserters!"

Jiang Mengyu growled, "First, today isn’t your battlefield, and you weren’t sent here today as warriors to fight but were sent as antidotes to either suppress or resolve the Cold Poison for the enemy. If you leave, you deprive the enemy of healing. If you stay, you deliver medicine to heal the enemy, thus increasing their strength.

Second, staying here doesn’t benefit the civilians at all; it just adds more people to die. On the contrary, because you are the antidote the demon cultivator wants, your leaving will divert their attention, making the civilians safer.

Third, we’ve already sent ten civilians out of the mountains, and they’ve scattered in different directions to call the Dragon Chief. Because of their presence outside, whether it’s the demon cultivators or Nangong, they wouldn’t dare to wipe out all the civilians in Shanbei Village.

So, our escape is strategic, not desertion. No more talking, just go quickly!"

Jiang Mengyu spoke very quickly but clearly.

Everyone thought about how they nearly lost their reason, yet a young girl saw things so clearly. They relaxed at once, each jumping onto the Five Elements Fan.

Seeing everyone on the Five Elements Fan, Di Ding still stood behind Nan Mingzhu. Gu Dongxing asked Di Ding, "Are you leaving? If you want to leave, come quickly; if not, we’re leaving."
