In a chaotic world of infrastructure development, a woman's path to survival after being reborn

These words instantly turned the atmosphere cold, and a conflict was about to erupt.

The illusion of harmony shattered instantly, the sound of blades being drawn rang out, and the two camps instantly became adversaries.

Protected by his trusted aides, Lu Zheng looked at the people standing opposite him and said, "So that's what you all think?"

Wherever Lu Zheng's gaze fell, the people being looked at all lowered their heads in unison and remained silent.

Seeing this, Lu Zheng understood everything. He sneered and said, "You never intended for me to prove myself; instead, you directly pinned this crime on me."

Upon hearing this, the leader sneered and said, "Why waste words with him? Let's just take action. Once the evidence is presented to him, we'll know what's right and what's wrong."

Hearing this, Lu Zheng snorted coldly and said, "Let's see who dares to do this! You're going to break your oath!"

Upon hearing this, the leader looked mocking, took several steps forward, and said, "So what? This is how I am. What do you want to do about it?"

As he spoke, the blade behind him pointed directly at Lu Zheng and the others, showing no mercy whatsoever.

Once the blade is drawn, there's no going back. Seeing the other party's resolute attitude, Lu Zheng no longer maintained any semblance of politeness and coldly said, "Then we'll have to tear off the mask of civility."

"If you've already torn off the mask, then so be it. You're just a suspect, what right do you have to resist?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng and his group's expressions turned grim, and they gripped their blades even tighter.

"Take him down!" came the reply from the other side, and the scene instantly descended into chaos.

Just as a fight was about to break out, people fell one after another before the battle even began. Soon, only Lu Zheng and his group remained standing in the tent.

The incident happened so suddenly that the person who fell was caught off guard and stared at Lu Zheng in disbelief.

Seeing the shock in the eyes of the fallen men, Lu Zheng snorted coldly, took a few steps forward, and then said, "What, didn't you already have the charges against me? Didn't you expect this?"

As Lu Zheng explained, those who had been lying on the ground struggling to stay upright eventually succumbed to the effects of the medicine and collapsed to the ground.

After confirming that everyone had fallen, Lu Zheng led his men to tie up everyone inside the tent. Just then, a commotion was heard outside, and the soldiers stationed outside had been taken into custody by Mo Nan's men.

The tent was opened, and Mo Nan led his men in. He was not surprised at all by the situation inside the tent. He nodded to Lu Zheng, and then the soldiers took the people who were tied up on the ground out.

“We won this battle. Congratulations to you and to us.” Mo Nan said.

Hearing this, Lu Zheng smiled with relief and said, "You've arrived as promised. It's a pleasure to cooperate with you."

It is truly difficult to be willing to burn one's bridges and completely entrust one's back to another, but Lu Zheng did just that and succeeded.

Mo Nan was genuinely impressed, so he said, "I won't go back on my promise. The general will reward you according to your merits after we return to the city, so don't worry."

These words reassured Lu Zheng and his group, putting them at ease.

Lu Zheng was also worried about this matter, so he didn't hide anything this time, but nodded directly and said: "I was going to ask again, but now it's perfect, we feel much more at ease."

Mo Nan smiled and replied to Lu Zheng's words, "After we've dealt with things here, I'll take you back to the city."
