Chapter 28: Chapter 21: The Battle of Revenge (4000 words, two in one)_3

Especially the Jiera siblings, who often hunted beasts for the People of Yatun, their eyes were full of surprise, for they had guessed the person Bailuo was planning to kill.

'At last...'

'We can have our revenge?'

They didn't speak, opting instead to quietly await the judgment of their uncle and older martial sister.

Bailuo knew his position, he was a leader, a king, but not an infallible sage.

He had the authority to make decisions, yet also the obligation to protect his people.

If personal vengeance led to the downfall of the entire Yatun Clan, then Bailuo would rather continue to endure in silence.

"There are some people you can't kill yet."

These people Uncle referred to were the soldiers under Count Thorns.

These men were not really at fault, they were just following orders.

And the root of the heavy grain levies and burdensome taxes lay with those avaricious officials.

Furthermore, by moving against these people, Count Thorn would be alerted, and at this crucial time, they couldn't afford to lose the advantage of the enemy being in the dark and them being in the light because of such trifles.

"Yes, I know."

Bailuo said, "I will investigate thoroughly first, and if there is someone, a gentleman can seek revenge; it is never too late after ten years."

"Not too late indeed."

"But some people, they truly deserve to die!"

Towards those profiteers who had oppressed and exploited the People of Yatun for nearly ten years, Uncle's attitude was completely in agreement with Bailuo's.

They had lacked the means before and dared not expose themselves, having to continually restrain their own actions.

They had endured humiliation for ten years, always keeping a low profile. But now, they no longer had to endure.

The People of Yatun were never rabbits; they were wolves, lions; they remembered kindness, but they also took vengeance!

"Revenge!!"

"Kill them!"

"Please let me join you!"

"And me too!"

"..."

Bailuo was not weak; with the Pegasus, he could make quick decisions.

But with just him and Sherri, there would inevitably be oversights, which is why Bailuo planned to bring some more people to ensure there were no survivors.

"Those who want to go, bring your equipment and gather at the village entrance tomorrow evening."

Bailuo: "For this operation, I have only one requirement for you."

"Leave none alive!"

"Yes!!"

The morale of the People of Yatun was high; after many years of suppression and now with plenty of food and a half month's rest that had restored most of them to their peak condition, even the women were volunteering to fight.

However, Bailuo needed them to stay behind to protect the children, so he didn't agree.

And this operation didn't require many people; with Bailuo and Sherri, as well as the older martial sister, stealth was more important than combat strength.

So, with Bailuo as the team leader, the older martial sister as the deputy, and joined by Inya, Nors, and Jiera.

A total of five people, they were the entire team set to ambush the profiteers, to take their revenge and wash away their hatred.
