Chapter 1699: Chapter 1699: He Doesn’t Trust Her
Ji Lingkong finally put away his smile and spoke seriously to her back: "Jun Yiyi, as long as you are willing to cooperate actively and reveal everything you know without reservation, I guarantee that you will not be harmed in any way!"
Yiyi paused her steps for a moment, not turning back, but feeling a chill in her heart, and her eyes dimmed.
His words suggested that he still didn’t trust her, thinking she was hiding something. This was a warning, telling her not to try to hide anything, otherwise, he couldn’t guarantee she wouldn’t be harmed.
But the problem is, she had already said everything she could explain, except for the privacy about her identity.
Even the Du Le couple had warned her not to reveal any of her secrets to anyone, as it could lead to fatal danger.
...
A secret place in the mountains of Yalan Country.
Fengye Wuyin and Lino appeared there. It was an underground signal transmission tower with a powerful signal port that could send audio signals to the satellite and then back to receiving towers all over the ground.
The staff in front of the machines immediately saluted respectfully upon seeing Fengye Wuyin and Lino.
Fengye Wuyin glanced at the equipment that was ready.
"Have the audio files been recorded?"
"Yes, everything is ready!" replied the staff in charge.
"Good." Fengye Wuyin said leisurely, walking to the transmission machine, and without hesitation, pressed the red button in the center, "The time to change the world’s dynamics has begun!"
With his press of the button, the signal quickly transmitted to the satellite, which then sent the signal to regions all over the world.
Numerous reception towers released an astonishing broadcast.
"Go, go, go, retreat now!" Fengye Wuyin ordered, and a few minutes later, they were already down the mountain.
Yet, on the mountain, that underground chamber burst into flames, destroying all the equipment.
Lino watched as those flames soared, a little worried: "Are we heading back to the country next? But our mission hasn’t succeeded, and I’m afraid we will be held accountable!"
Fengye Wuyin gave him a sidelong look: "Failing to assassinate the Councilman’s wife doesn’t mean failure. There’s more than one way to achieve a goal. As long as I find a way to accomplish what he wants, that’s enough!"
"Can we really do that? It’s very dangerous, and if it’s exposed, it would ruin us completely, involving many things."
"Sounds quite thrilling, doesn’t it?"
"Can you be serious? Your family might also not be spared and could collapse."
"Oh."
Lino looked at him in surprise: "That’s all you have to say?"
Fengye Wuyin shrugged: "If it comes to that, there’s nothing I can do. What’s bound to fall will fall; holding it up by force is useless."
Lino was speechless. This guy without a shred of family honor, if his father heard this, he’d surely be furious, but Fengye had always been a maverick among the nobility.
"It’s all that woman’s fault. Who would’ve thought she would defect at the last moment, otherwise the Councilman’s wife couldn’t have survived, and our objectives would have been met." Lino flared up at the mention of Jun Yiyi, "By the way, why didn’t you kill that girl? Although she doesn’t know much, keeping her around is always a hassle for us."
This girl caused their entire plan to fail at the last moment, making it downright infuriating.
Who could have foreseen that the girl, who seemed so cooperative and obedient, would end up doing something like this? They just couldn’t see through her.
