CHAPTER 1793 CHAOS

The entire region was thrown into chaos immediately!

There were some who thought that Li Genhong was the one who poisoned Yeshma, since the only information was that Yeshma drank tea at the Li family's.

If there was a chance to poison Yeshma, then this was the only chance.

But now, Li Genhong had also been poisoned?

And news of his poisoning had spread earlier than Yeshma's.

What was going on?

"Are you sure Li Genhong got poisoned first?"

"Yes! Li Genhong is still in emergency treatment, while Yeshma just reached his castle. It's a difference of about an hour."

"Who did this?! What a vicious person! He not only tried to get rid of someone who's been rising recently, but he also got rid of the head of a veteran army like Yeshma!"

"I don't care who did it. Yeshma is dead, so that castle doesn't belong to anybody now."

There were all sorts of opinions flying around.

Many mercenary armies took this chance to take action.

The best situation in a warzone was chaos.

Chaos gave them a chance for a change, and a chance for them to climb higher.

Every time things became chaotic, someone would take the chance to kill off their opponents, get more resources and rise by another level. Of course, there were also people who just completely withdrew and disappeared from the warzone in such situations.

This time, because the one who died was Yeshma, nobody cared about what happened to the Li family army anymore.

Compared to the Holy Sword Mercenary Army, the Li family army was nothing.

If the Li family army was behind this, then the next few mercenary armies that were ranked behind Holy Sword Mercenary Army could use this as an excuse to attack the Li family army and ignite a big battle.

But Li Genhong turned out to be a victim as well.

It was not right for them to attack a victim.

So the only thing they could do now was to pretend to fight in the name of justice and avenging Yeshma while trying to figure out who was the one behind this.

The smell of war filled the air as all the mercenary armies all stood ready to fight.

The Li family army campsite was no different.

All the construction work had stopped and all the soldiers were now concentrating on protecting their home.

Li Genhong was still undergoing emergency treatment.

In Jiang Ning's room.

"Checkmate," called out Li Genhong.

He looked up at Jiang Ning and saw Jiang Ning frown, so he immediately picked up the chess piece that he had placed on the board. "Ok, I won't checkmate you, I'll take back this move."

Jiang Ning wasn't too bad at playing Chinese chess, but Li Genhong was even better at it and had won several games already. Li Zhengshang watched them from the side and he was about to faint.

Why was his son so stupid?!

"It's alright, go ahead," Jiang Ning shook his head. "You can win another round."

Li Genhong glanced at Li Zhengshang and Li Zhengshang nearly shouted at him. His son could win anyone at chess but Jiang Ning! He hadn't trained his son in chess since he was a child so he could do this!

"Checkmate then." Li Genhong put the piece back on the board.

Jiang Ning had no more moves left, so he'd lost again. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Tve lost.” Jiang Ning didn't beat around the bush.

"Mr Jiang, you've been too kind," said Li Genhong.

He had no idea why Jiang Ning suddenly wanted to play chess with him. And he had chosen to play Chinese chess, which was something that Li Genhong had been excellent at since he was a child.

The situation outside was so tense and all the mercenary armies were ready to take this chance to go to war with one another.

If Jiang Ning hadn't reacted in time and gotten him to pretend that he was poisoned first, all these armies would definitely charge towards the Li family army first!

"Do you understand now?” asked Jiang

Ning as he pointed to the chess board.

"Yes," nodded Li Genhong.

"How much do you understand?"

"Most of it."
