Lu Mang was very annoyed. This kid was so aggressive and really hateful.

Lin Chengyu looked him up and down and asked in confusion, "I heard that Lord Lu has been ill in bed these days. How did you know that there are no zombies in the capital?"

"Of course..." Jia Huan's cry for help caught Lu Mang's attention. His eyes lit up and he said, "Of course Jia Huan told me. Although I was not feeling well, I was concerned about the situation in the capital, so I told Jia Huan to check on me every day. He told me all these things."

Lin Chengyu raised his hand and smashed the ice cage that trapped Jia Huan. The ice cage broke into pieces and ice cubes splashed everywhere. Lu Mang was unable to dodge and was scratched on the cheek by the oncoming ice.

"Oh, I'm so sorry." Lin Chengyu felt guilty and said, "I'm so sorry for hurting Lord Lu."

The road python's back teeth were about to break, "No problem."

Damn it, this guy must have done it on purpose. Everyone else was fine, but those ice cubes seemed to recognize him and came straight towards him.

Who would believe it if it wasn't intentional?!

Jia Huan knelt on the ground as if exhausted, curled himself up into a ball, trying to keep himself warm in this position.

But his whole body was cold, and even if he shrank back, it would be of no use.

"Lord Lu..."

He looked at Lu Mang, hoping that Lu Mang could vent his anger for him, but he didn't expect that Lu Mang didn't even look at him. Instead, he smiled at Lin Chengyu who had harmed him like this.

If it weren't for Lu Mang's instructions, why would he be targeted by Lin Chengyu?

After being frozen for a while, Jia Huan's mind suddenly became a little clearer.

The reason why Lin Chengyu did this was definitely because he suspected him, but he was just following orders. The real mastermind was Lu Mang.

It doesn't make sense that he should be tortured for so long while the master was just standing there.

But Lu Mang gave him a hidden look, the warning in which was so clear that even a fool could understand it.

"Since the Marquis is fine, I will take this useless thing back with me." Lu Mang curled his lips, "Take him back and teach him a lesson, so that he knows who to offend and who not to offend."

Jia Huan suddenly shuddered.

Lu Mang was threatening people so blatantly that no one present could fail to understand.

Lin Chengyu's face turned cold, "Master Lu, why are you so anxious? Could it be that you have done something wrong and you dare not show up in front of others?"

Lu Mang was frightened by his eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. Although this kid was young, his aura was terrifying.

For a moment, he felt even more fearful.

"That's not true, sir. I just thought of taking him back because I saw that he was about to freeze to death."

"Besides, he is the Marquis' relative, and he became like this because of the Marquis. If anything happens, outsiders might accuse the Marquis of being cold-blooded and heartless."

"I am doing this for the sake of the Marquis's reputation, but the Marquis is wrongly accusing me. Isn't that a bit unfair?"

Lu Mang's voice was very loud, and he did it on purpose. He wanted to attract other people over and let them see how cold-blooded and heartless Lin Chengyu was, and how he treated his own relatives so rudely.

He felt proud as he watched more and more people gather around him.

"It's true that you are a superpower, but ordinary people are also born and raised by their parents. You really shouldn't use the abilities God has given you to teach ordinary people a lesson."

The people who were led by Lu Mang looked at Jia Huan's pitiful appearance and subconsciously wanted to agree with Lu Mang.

When the words came to their lips, they changed their mind and thought that although Ning Anhou did not often interact with them, he was actually an open and honest person, unlike the kind of person Lu Mang described.

"Is there any misunderstanding? The Marquis has always been gentle and polite. Lord Lu, please clarify the matter first, and don't say anything careless."

"Yes, the Marquis is so handsome, and he doesn't look like what you said."

Lu Mang had an ugly, rough face and was very angry. "...judging people by their appearance!"

The man who judged people by their appearance was glared at by him and was so scared that he dared not speak again. However, he felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said.

The Marquis is indeed handsome, pleasing to the eye, and you can tell at first glance that he is a good person.

And the prince also seems to be a very good person.

And Princess Le An...

It’s a pleasure to see so many good-looking people standing together.

On the other hand, people like Lu Mang are all ferocious, and the hostility between their eyebrows is really scary. It is obvious that they are not easy to deal with.

Even if he is not a bad person, he is still vicious.

It was still relatively warm today, and Jia Huan barely recovered. He walked behind Lu Mang, shivering all over like a sieve.

He was like playing ostrich, but Lin Chengyu wouldn't let him have his way.

Lin Chengyu asked him, "You said you didn't take the jade pendant with you when you left the city, but I definitely found it outside the city. I didn't know a small jade pendant could have such long legs and run away."

Jia Huan struggled to explain clearly, but he racked his brains to think about it. This jade pendant was very precious and he had always been reluctant to wear it for fear that it would be bumped. So why would he carry it with him when he left the palace?

"I......"

"Let's put this question aside for now. I have another question. You are an ordinary person. It is not easy for you to go out of the palace to investigate. Why do you dare to leave the city?" Lin Chengyu's eyes were as cold as ice and as sharp as arrows. She threw the jade pendant casually, scaring Jia Huan so much that he hurriedly tried to catch it.

The jade pendant fell to the ground and broke into two pieces.

Lin Chengyu said: "It's just a small jade pendant, but it's still so strenuous. How can you be so confident to open the city gate? I don't believe you don't know how many zombies are outside the city."

Jia Huan no longer had the heart to feel bad about the jade pendant. He was so frightened by Lin Chengyu's repeated questioning that he dared not look up.

Seeing this, Lu Mang cursed and pretended to be unhappy, saying, "My Lord, don't underestimate me. Although he is just an ordinary person, he also wants to do something for everyone. Which law stipulates that ordinary people can't sacrifice their lives for justice?"

He is used to waving the flag, and for a moment everyone was a little hesitant.

Although what the Marquis said made sense, what Lu Mang said was also not unreasonable.

If Jia Huan really left the city just to find out the situation for them, wouldn't it be disheartening if they accused him without any reason?

When Grandmother Jia and the others heard the news, they rushed over. When they saw Jia Huan's timid look, their hearts skipped a beat.

Others may not understand Jia Huan, but the people in the Jia family know him too well. Needless to say, he is hiding something.

Lin Chengyu then said, "But everyone is fine in the palace, why did you take the risk of opening the city gate? Don't you know that doing so will definitely attract zombies? Now so many people have been killed by zombies, don't you feel any guilt in your heart?"

The topic changed too quickly. Lu Mang himself was a rough man, and Jia Huan was a helpless little kid. He couldn't figure it out for a while, so he was led away by Lin Chengyu.
