Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 239: 239: Do you want to leave? I can help you

”Devil King, listen to me... Chuan Er has buried a large quantity of explosives on the mountain! If anything happens here, they’ll destroy the entire mountain at the first chance to erase all evidence. If we leave now, Chuan Er will definitely blow up the mountain directly!”

Zhou Li was being carried by Li Yan, yet he still panted heavily. He was already bearing a half-crippled body, and the escape almost cost him half his life!

But even so, he had to speak, because he had no other choice but to trust the Devil King.

In times of danger, only the Devil King could bring him hope!

At first, Zhou Li didn’t think highly of Li Yan. Although everyone called him the Devil King, he thought it was nothing more than an undeserved reputation. After all, he was caught by Chuan Er, that despicable man. What kind of Devil King was that!

However... he was already a dying man with not many days left, so he thought about talking with the Devil King, and he told him everything...

He thought it was just a matter of venting, but who would have thought, after he finished speaking, the Devil King Li Yan in the darkness asked him in a deep and magnetic voice, ”Do you want to escape? I can help you!”

At that time, Zhou Li didn’t believe it. He even found it extremely amusing. He was already caught, how could he help himself? Perhaps through the Academy below?

He was just about to mock him and rid him of all his thoughts when a ’clang’ sound startled him!

In the darkness, the Devil King Li Yan stood up, lifted his noble foot, and walked towards Chuan Er’s original position. He nonchalantly turned on the light, and the dazzling light made Zhou Li unable to open his eyes.

But he still forced his eyes open, and his pupils shrank slightly. He was astonished to find that the Devil King’s handcuffs had disappeared—

”Don’t be surprised! Special trainees all have the skill to unlock handcuffs. This is the most basic skill that must be learned upon entering the Academy!”

Li Yan’s deep eyes focused on Zhou Li’s broken body, speaking words filled with temptation, ”However, the door here is made of special materials, and unlocking it is complicated. Not everyone can do it!”

”Luckily, when Chuan Er left, I saw the lock’s core! Then I figured out a way to unlock the door, so I’ll ask you one last time! Do you want to come with me? I can help you!”

Zhou Li almost exhausted all his strength, and without any hesitation, he said, Yes!

As long as he could leave here, there was a chance to clear his name. It was worth doing anything. He had been locked up for a long time and was eager to see the outside world, that world full of light!

The memories ended!

Zhou Li returned to reality. Now he completely trusted the Devil King! He was even willing to entrust his life to him!

”I know the location of the bomb, in the tunnel halfway up the mountain. The tunnel is hollowed out! Once the bomb is detonated, the entire mountain will collapse!”

After all, the amount of explosives is huge, so they couldn’t be placed separately; they were all placed together. As long as they could blow up the mountain then, their goal would be achieved. They didn’t need to exert too much effort to destroy the evidence.

”Where exactly is it?”

Li Yan’s deep eyes flashed with cold light, yet he didn’t expect that they actually placed explosives, knowing that there are thousands of villagers in this mountain, all human lives!

”Going down the slope, there’s a hidden path. They definitely won’t find it. Follow the path forward, and you’ll reach the tunnel!”

Fortunately, Zhou Li knew the terrain here, providing more convenience for their escape and executing the mission.

Li Yan, carrying Zhou Li, did not hesitate and immediately ran towards the road Zhou Li mentioned!

This mission is indeed critical! He couldn’t trust others easily, but he chose to trust Zhou Li!

Or you could say, he was even more confident in his beast-like intuition, which would never be wrong!

After all, that innate sharp intuition had saved his life many times!
