Chapter 1125 - 1116: Shooting Oneself in the Foot
The malice in humanity’s heart can be no more treacherous than this!
Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, looking at the old village chief before him with a trace of calmness. "Old bastard, I’ve treated your Cao Family Village with only kindness, not enmity, and this is how you repay me?"
He had saved Cao Rui and Cao Xiu.
Not to mention, he had helped them bring back the snow lotus, ensuring that the Cao Family Village wouldn’t need to worry about tribute for the next year.
This was a great deed of immense generosity!
And yet...
They repaid kindness with betrayal, directly selling him out!
The old village chief spoke righteously, "Young friend, you must be joking. This old man did it for your own good!"
"For my own good?"
Xiao Yi let out an enraged laugh, pointing outside as his tone turned icy, "Calling the people from Jiecheng to capture me—this is your idea of ’for my own good’? Old bastard, how can you be so shameless?"
"Young friend, since you were willing to save Cao Rui and Cao Xiu, what harm is there in lending a hand to our village again? One shouldn’t be so selfish; you need to learn to sacrifice small benefits for the greater good..." the old village chief chastised, his words full of righteousness.
