Chapter 355 - 0355: Lay Down Your Weapons
He understands the laws here well—should he start the trouble and the opponent retaliates in self-defense and accidentally kills him, it would at most be considered excessive defense.
If they had completed the mission, it would have been fine, but if they failed to kill Old Man Shen and Old Man Tang, it would truly be a loss of both wife and soldiers.
Yamamoto Yotetsu had thought his plan was foolproof, but he underestimated this young man.
"I’ve said it before, if you take the knife and strike us first, and I accidentally kill you in return, it would at most be deemed excessive defense. As for you, what you should be most concerned about now is this knife in my hand. If I, by any chance, put too much force and sever your neck, you’ll be dead."
Chu Ge’s lips carried a cold smile that didn’t reach his eyes; an icy chill emanated from him, spreading around as if plunging into an ice cellar.
Yamamoto Yotetsu felt a coldness creeping up from the soles of his feet to his spine, but he didn’t flinch at Chu Ge’s words; instead, his conviction only grew stronger.
In his broken Chinese, he said, "Even if you kill me, you won’t be able to leave this place alive. Exchanging one of me for both of you is still a gain for us."
Chu Ge was surprised at his lack of fear of death. His eyes, cool and undisturbed, "It seems you’re quite sure of yourself."
Yamamoto Yotetsu could not detect any emotion in his voice, yet he couldn’t help but puff out his chest with a hint of pride, "I know how formidable you are, but you alone cannot withstand thousands. I’ve already set up tight security around here, so stop your futile struggle."
At those words, Chu Ge couldn’t help but let out a soft laugh. The next moment, his arm swung lightly, and a taint of blood rapidly spread through the air.
