"What happened?" Wen Yu asked the nearby Li Dalong with confusion.
Li Dalong had a bitter expression on his face: "This is troublesome. This Er Gang used to be with Brother Fei. They were both involved in the underworld, and I heard that Er Gang once saved Brother Fei's life. Now, Sun Aotian can just say to kill him, and it's done. Brother Fei definitely won't take this lying down."
Upon hearing Li Dalong's explanation, Wen Yu immediately got up: "Let's go take a look."
Following the crowd, Wen Yu and the others made their way to the scene of the incident. It is human nature to watch the excitement.
Li Dalong kept talking to Wen Yu about some secrets in the camp.
Li Dalong had his own considerations.
If Sun Aotian and Zang Pengfei clashed directly, the result would only be mutual destruction. If he could cling to a powerful ally now, his safety would undoubtedly improve significantly.
And in this camp, who could be a thicker leg to hug than Wen Yu?
"The conflict between Little Tian and Brother Da Fei has actually been brewing for a long time. Most of the people here were saved by Brother Da Fei, and we all recognized Brother Da Fei as the leader. But later on, Sun Aotian seemed to have received some kind of adventure, and his strength increased rapidly, suddenly becoming the strongest in the gathering place. It appears he even has a hidden profession."
Li Dalong had seen Wen Yu’s soul beast and could guess that Wen Yu was also a hidden profession. Over time, hidden professions were no longer rare.
"That aside, the key is that this Sun Aotian isn't very bright. He always thinks of himself as the protagonist, trying to fight for the position of leader in the gathering place. Brother Da Fei definitely won't allow that, and that's how the conflict arose."
"If you ask me, this Sun Aotian has late-stage chuunibyou syndrome, thinking that he can recruit underlings like in novels, just by flexing his muscles. And have you seen the terrible name he has? Sun Aotian? Why not call himself Heavenly Day?"
Li Dalong's words were filled with disdain for Sun Aotian.
Wen Yu also thought this young man had some issues, smiling as he asked, "How do you know that his parents didn't give him this name?"
Li Dalong rolled his eyes dramatically: "Boss, have you ever seen a parent name their child something like this? It's a name cursed by heaven; he will have a short life."
Wen Yu was momentarily taken aback by Li Dalong's explanation: "Your reasoning is really insightful; I have nothing to say!"
Li Dalong chuckled and continued, "Honestly, aside from being a little strange, Sun Aotian hasn't done anything heinous, especially not killing. I don't know what got into him today, but we professionals all know to avoid Sun Aotian as much as possible."
"However, this Er Gang is really a piece of work. Relying on his connection with Brother Fei, he has been bullying the ordinary folks in the camp. Of course, he’s only picking on regular people. Brother Fei can’t manage things well. It might even be a good thing that Sun Aotian took him out."
As Wen Yu and Li Dalong chatted while walking, they soon arrived at the scene surrounded by the crowd.
"This place… feels familiar?"
Wen Yu looked at Li Dalong with a strange expression, teasing him.
Li Dalong stared at the crowd, his face suddenly turning pale: "Damn it, isn’t this my home? What the hell? This idiot Er Gang had to die right in my house."
As Li Dalong muttered curses under his breath, he quickened his pace and led Wen Yu and the others forward.
"Move aside! Let me through!"
Li Dalong pushed aside the ordinary people surrounding them, creating a path for Wen Yu. Those pushed aside didn’t dare to say a word.
The class divide in the apocalypse has already appeared!
When Wen Yu, Li Quan'an, Li Dalong, and the others entered the circle, they were met with a tense scene.
Zang Pengfei glared at Sun Aotian with rage, holding a steel knife in his hand but refraining from taking action.
Sun Aotian, on the other hand, was relaxed, one arm wrapped around the disheveled and sobbing Bai Feifei, whispering soothing words to her, completely ignoring Zang Pengfei.
