Chapter 200: Kindness that Breaks Chains
Lang Yao’s figure gradually disappeared into the dense forest. His steps remained steady, but his face twisted more and more with each stride.
After being thrown out by those fools, he had no choice but to return to his former base, East River Base.
But the moment the thought of facing his lord surfaced, a cold shiver slid down his spine. His eyes darkened instantly.
How was he going to explain?
What reason could possibly justify his failure? And how could he explain that he was discovered by that bitch? Lang Yao gritted his teeth. If he could, he would have torn apart that bitch who pretended to be magnanimous and had made him lose face.
What he said was truth. It’s not like he was lying. He only raised a genuine concern, but the bitch painted him in a bad light and even instigated people to throw him out of the base.
Shame surged through his chest like a venomous tide. It wrapped around his heart like a poisonous snake, suffocating and bitter. He could still hear the iron gate clanging shut behind him, still see it sneering at his pathetic state.
But then—
He suddenly stopped walking.
His brows drew together. A flicker of something flashed in his eyes.
A single thought crept into his mind like a drop of icy water sliding down his spine. It didn’t freeze him, but it woke him up. And strangely, it made his lips twitch.
