Wow, this rough-around-the-edges pregnant wife is something else, she's incredibly ruthless!

After several busy hours, Jiang Zhu's condition finally stabilized, and Lu Chuan had not yet been lost.

But a newborn baby and several other fair-skinned little ones have already been targeted by the demonized refugees.

In the latter half of the night, a long-planned scheme finally unfolded.

It's obvious who would win when nearly 10,000 refugees faced off against a group consisting entirely of the elderly, women, and children.

Moreover, the officers and soldiers at the time, whether intentionally or unintentionally, encouraged the refugees' rampant behavior.

Nearly three thousand elderly, weak, women and children died that rainy night, and Lu Chuan was also taken away by the masked old man Lu, who had been watching him for a long time, in the chaos.

Having followed the refugee group for several months, Old Man Lu's two sons and his pregnant wife were highly sought-after by others.

If it weren't for the fact that there were quite a few villagers who fled with him, Old Man Lu wouldn't have been able to save his two sons and Old Lady Lu.

During his travels, he saw many children who were kidnapped or sold, and their fates were obvious.

As a father who still had a shred of conscience, Old Man Lu had his eye on other people's children, and the people from Dawn Island were the best candidates for him to offer as tribute.

As long as they manage to snatch the person they want and send them over, Old Man Lu feels from the bottom of his heart that his family will not be harmed.

Lu Chuan was the one targeted because the baby's flesh was tender.

Holding his newborn child, Old Man Lu fled in the stormy night, thinking he would get what he wanted.

But the arrival of the Dawn Islanders disrupted his plans.

The ruthless refugees were killed by Sheng Linhua and his men who arrived at the scene, and his third son, who was only ten days old, also died that night.

He was extremely thin from birth, and Old Man Lu had thought he would die, but he never expected it to be so soon.

Looking at the stiff child lying in the tattered basket, Old Man Lu's eyes flashed with a strange light.

Rain blurred his vision, and Old Man Lu looked at the newborn child in his arms.

His chubby cheeks looked energetic, and when he glanced at the decisive men not far away, a thought popped into his head.

The more he wants something, the less he wants it to be.

Heartlessly abandoning his already dead third son, Old Man Lu brazenly made Lu Chuan his third son.

Actually, he had ulterior motives; bloodlines are something that need to be passed down.

Upon witnessing the bravery of the Dawn Islanders, his shrewd eyes had already foreseen the future.

He wanted the child in his arms to support his family in the future, and also to make up for the fact that his third son had died.

Kill two birds with one stone.

As Old Man Lu had imagined, things did indeed unfold as Lu Chuan had predicted, and at a young age, he displayed an amazing talent for hunting.

This was arguably the most despicable yet most accurate thing Old Man Lu had ever done.

No one knows him except him.

Listening to Sheng Bing say so much, another hour passed without realizing it.

Meng Tong had a rough idea of ​​what had happened, and Lu Chuan fell silent.

So he really isn't Old Man Lu's son.

Countless childhood memories and the Lu family's attitude towards him flashed through his mind, and the man's aura grew increasingly oppressive.

Then a warm voice came from beside her, "I'll always be by your side, don't worry."

“My wife…” Holding the woman’s small hand, Lu Chuan’s eyes reddened slightly. The tall man became somewhat vulnerable at this moment, like a broken glass bead.

His first twenty-odd years were a joke.

"Follow your heart. Those who deserve punishment will one day receive it. Even if they don't... I will definitely help you achieve it."

The woman's eyes were resolute, and her tone carried an undeniable chill.

If she's not satisfied with the final result, she really will take action.

There is no doubt about this.

……

After saying so much, Sheng Bing also felt sorry for Lu Chuan's situation, but the man's goal was still to follow the two of them.

Meng Tong handed over the decision-making power to Lu Chuan.

Whether he stays or leaves is up to him, and besides, they already know their background, so Meng Tong doesn't want to pretend.

After thinking for three minutes, Lu Chuan finally agreed to Sheng Bing's decision to go with them. As for Sheng Bing's later decision to meet the other people on Dawn Island, Lu Chuan did not agree to it for the time being.

He hasn't gotten over that mental hurdle yet.

Since that was the case, the three of them stopped hiding it and Sheng Bing directly produced a jet-black porcelain bottle out of thin air in front of the two of them.

As soon as the bottle cap was unscrewed, a rich medicinal aroma wafted out, and Sheng Bing poured it all into his hand.

The swelling in her hands, which had been red and swollen, visibly subsided upon contact with a milky white liquid.

To Lu Chuan and Meng Tong's slightly astonished expressions, Sheng Bing's hand slowly returned to normal, its fair and slender shape completely unlike a man's hand.

Not to mention it was the hand of a man nearing forty.

Looking up at his satisfied expression, Meng Tong realized that Sheng Bing was a complete hand fetishist.

After putting the medicine bottle away, Sheng Bing looked calmly at Lu Chuan and the other man and said, "Let's go!"

"you……"

"Don't be surprised! I know everything you've done." Cutting off Lu Chuan's words, Sheng Bing changed his previous refined demeanor, and a sly look appeared on his handsome face. He said, "The Phoenix Bone is in your hands, or rather... in your bodies."

"You all possess special abilities just like me, don't you?"

"We don't understand what you're saying, my wife, let's go!"

Ignoring the man's teasing expression, Lu Chuan put his arm around Meng Tong and walked into the mountains.

Clearly, he didn't want Meng Tong's abilities to be exposed, and he didn't fully trust him yet.

Fortunately, Sheng Bing didn't mind and followed behind the two with a limp, his talkative nature impossible to suppress.

"You haven't even told me your names yet! I recognized my nephew at a glance. You should at least show some respect to your fourth uncle!"

"Where do you live? Are you inside the prison mountain? Where did you obtain the Phoenix Bone...?"

"Uh... I'll shut up."

Seeing the murderous intent in Meng Tong's eyes, Sheng Bing wisely shut his mouth.

My niece-in-law is really scary.

……

Unaware of the danger, Wei Lian continued his relentless upstream journey. Whether due to the depth of the mountains or the geographical location, the six boats were frequently harassed by wild monkeys that suddenly jumped out.

A bloody scratch marked his handsome, alluring face. Wei Lian sat inside the boat, his murderous aura freezing everything around him.

The nameless person standing to one side also dared not utter a sound.

"nameless."

"Your Highness."

Shaking slightly, Wuming braced himself and approached Wei Lian. Within seconds, his back was almost soaked with sweat.

The man's sinister and ruthless gaze swept over him, and Wei Lian said with a light slit in his thin lips, "I'm giving you one last day. If you still can't find a place, then jump off the ship. I don't keep idle people around."

"..."

"Your Highness, something has happened, the ship..."

The door was suddenly pushed open, and a panicked guard in black rushed in.
