i seemed to understand something. He just nodded and said, "It seems that the Ye family and the Chen family have really joined forces. Well, Xu Chu, I know how to handle this matter now."Xu nodded, th...Ye Fan stood less than a meter away from Kunka. Looking at him up close, he realized that this guy had probably changed a lot after becoming the leader. The fat on his face was swollen, and he didn't have the same dashing look as in the photo. Especially his two lips, they were like two fat sausages hanging on his face...

"General Kunka, hello," Ye Fan tried his best not to look at the lion beside him: "It's nice to meet you. I think my purpose is already known to you."

“Of course, I’m delighted to do business with friends from Huaxia,” Kunka laughed, his laughter booming so loudly that it drowned out the screams from nearby. However, just as his laughter subsided, a discordant chorus of screams echoed from afar – those of the miner being whipped by soldiers.

What's going on

Seeing Ye Fan slightly furrow his brows, Kunka immediately turned back and glanced. Then he summoned a soldier in a low voice, whispering a few words. After a short while, the miner was dragged over like a dead dog.

"I apologize, my guest," Kunka's voice was cold. "These damn bastards have disturbed my guest, I will punish him."

He muttered a few words in his native tongue, and then, with astonishing swiftness, the two soldiers who had been whipping the miners were disarmed and dragged away to be flogged themselves—it turned out that Kunka was reprimanding them for behaving so crudely in front of a guest like Ye Fan. As for the miner, Kunka didn't even glance his way; after being dragged away, a sharp gunshot rang out!

Bang!

The crisp sound echoed through the valley. Ye Fan saw that Li Su's face was a bit unsightly, and he sighed.

Savage! True savagery!

Several years ago, I had been on a mission in South Africa and even had a violent clash with a local tribal chief. However, at the time, I hadn't really delved into the heart of the country, so it was hard to witness such scenes firsthand. Seeing this with my own eyes now, I truly understand that this is a real savage land!

Here, life is worthless!

As the highest leader here, Kunka can take the life of anyone on this land at any time!

Although Ye Fan felt a little uncomfortable about what had just happened, he didn't show it on his face. He just casually asked: "General Kunka, I've already seen your mine... Well, the scale seems quite large."

"Of course, there are hundreds of slaves working for me here every day... Humph, but be careful, those damn goblins will steal the ore!" Kunka said proudly.

"Upon hearing Kunka's words, Ye Fan was a bit puzzled. He pointed to the distant mine and said, "General Kunka, please forgive my boldness... I see that these miners don't even have a complete set of clothes on their bodies, and their clothes are thin... How do they steal ore"

"Hidden in their bodies," Kunka grinned cruelly. "These pigs are very cunning. Without whips, they wouldn't work properly. And these sly pigs, they have many ways of stealing the ore... Well, they hide small pieces of ore in their bodies, like last time someone had a piece of ore in their mouth, and some even stuff it into their lower body! Then they sneak it out to sell for money."

Kunka said triumphantly, his voice full of indifference and cruelty. Seeing Ye Fan's face change slightly, he continued: "Last time, someone drank a lot of oil and swallowed a small piece of ore. I caught him, and I had him cut open in front of hundreds of miners! Hmph! But this way, these pigs have been honest for a few days."

Kunka seemed to be deliberately showing off, and even Ye Fan, who was accustomed to all sorts of scenes, twitched his facial muscles slightly. Li Su, standing beside him, almost vomited.

Kunka saw Ye Fan's grim expression and seemed very satisfied with the effect. Then he waved his hand: "Take my baby to the back, it's hungry, that pig just now is just right for dinner." A soldier immediately came over and led Kunka's young lion away...

Seeing the lion dragged down, Li Su couldn't help but imagine the beast tearing at the corpse of the deceased miner. She felt a twinge of nausea. At this moment, her lips were moving, as if she wanted to beg Kunkka to spare the miner.

Seeing that Li Su was about to speak, Ye Fan immediately bumped her body secretly and shook his head subtly. Li Su seemed to realize that her identity didn't suit her stopping this from happening, but looking at Ye Fan's eyes, she had a somewhat complex expression.

In Li Su's view, if Ye Fan spoke up, perhaps Kunka would have let the runaway worker go. Ye Fan knew this as well. It's just that he understood better, he was only here to negotiate. Even if he spoke up, Kunka would have let the miner go. But afterwards, this miner's fate wouldn't be good at all.

At this moment, it wasn't a time when good intentions were plentiful. Li Su was still somewhat out of place in such circumstances. As a qualified member of the Dragon's Tooth, the first requirement is to have an incredibly strong and resilient heart.

As for the bodyguard, Jinlong, he remained expressionless. However, Ye Fan noticed that the muscles in his brow were twitching slightly.

Kunkka intentionally delayed for a while, he was carefully observing Ye Fan's expression. Seeing Ye Fan's calm appearance, he seemed to be slightly disappointed.

"Well, my guest, I think you can rest in my villa first, and then we will have a good talk about business later." Kunka patted Ye Fan's shoulder seemingly peacefully, and then, under the "protection" of a squad of soldiers, led them away.

After leaving Kunka, Ye Fan let out a breath. Kunka had an aura of killing intent that made him shiver. Ye Fan was certain that his hands were stained with blood! This was the scent left behind by someone who had killed too many people.

"Just now..."

Just leaving Kunka, Li Su whispered to Ye Fan. But before she could finish, Ye Fan shook his head and said coldly, "This is none of our business."

At Ye Fan's stern warning, Li Su was clearly taken aback. Even Jin Long looked at Ye Fan with some surprise.

Ye Fan, however, did not say another word and continued walking forward.

After seeing this mine, he realized that it must have been a faction within the empire that wanted to use this mission to intervene in the interests here. To put it bluntly, they took such a big risk just for certain factions to make huge profits.

He vaguely felt that the task assigned to him back then was also for the benefit of a certain faction. However, the distribution of profits among the factions was uneven, or perhaps the previous Dragon Head knew too much about the inside story, which led to several factions joining forces to design the whole scheme together…

"This place... is truly huge…" Ye Fan gritted his teeth, muttering to himself.g to behold. The most frightening thing was that there were bits of food left in her mouth, and she kept chewing with it. When she opened her mouth, a mouthful of protruding teeth was revealed. In her...
