Chapter 226: Book Repository_3

Li Fan thought for a moment and suddenly had a bit of an understanding, "The people under your command had their uses. You had me kill them all; now you have no one to do your work, right?"

His directness caused Zhang Chongyang to stiffen slightly, but he calmly admitted, "Correct. Brother Li sees clearly. I indeed have an urgent matter at hand and need a good sword to handle it, yet, unfortunately, I do not have enough available hands to send to Xun Country at this time. I wonder if Brother Li could lend me a helping hand."

Li Fan understood, "So that's how it is. I've delivered myself into your territory, and you didn't kill me right away because I could still be of use to you. If I refuse, then I am no longer useful, and there'd be no rush to kill me, is that it?"

Zhang Chongyang neither confirmed nor denied, "Brother Li need not be so guarded. Listen to the mission I have and the reward I offer; perhaps you will agree."
