Chapter: 5118

Ye Chen's words released three gigantic shocks for him.

The first shock was that they could all thoroughly eliminate the toxins inside their bodies and never again be bound by them throughout their lives!

The second shock was that Ye Chen shared a common goal with them - wiping out Break Clear. Originally, he had never thought he had the ability to do so, but Ye Chen's profound mystery made him subconsciously feel that following Ye Chen would increase their chances of success to infinity!

As for the third shock, it was Ye Chen's promise of freedom!

This is the key to changing the fate of these people who have been living a miserable life for hundreds of years!

Their ancestors, without exception, yearned for a life of freedom.

However, after so many years have passed, countless people have sacrificed their lives for Break Clear, even being killed by Break Clear themselves, but none of them have gained true freedom.

Some members of the cavalier guard and those "scholars" who follow them have indeed achieved relative freedom through selling out to Break Clear, but as long as this poison remains, freedom will still be firmly in Break Clear's grasp.

The bird caged inside has no freedom, nor does the parrot with a chain around its ankle.

Therefore, that kind of conditional freedom has always been something Li Nianzong has looked down upon.

If there was an opportunity, he would rather fight to the death against Break Clear, even if it meant dying in the end, at least it would be a worthy demise.

However, although he had this kind of resolve, he wasn't a reckless fool; he knew that if he just charged headfirst into battle with Break Clear, it would basically be a futile attempt.

Until a few minutes ago, Ye Chen's antidote ignited his determination to fight to the death.

And after Ye Chen revealed his true intentions, his determination only grew stronger!

As soon as he thought of this, he kneeled down without hesitation, clasped his hands together in reverence, and swore an oath: "If Mr. is willing to fulfill his promise, I, Li Nianzong, swear on the names of all my ancestors that I will follow you until Break Clear is completely eradicated from this world!"

As he spoke, he suddenly changed his tone: "No! I'll follow you to death, Mr., and be your loyal guard from now on, as long as you can give my descendants freedom. With that, I'll die with a smile, without regret for this life!"

Ye Chen nodded slightly, saying calmly: "Of course, I'll honor my promise, not just to you, but to all the soldiers and riders controlled by Break Clear, until the day Break Clear disappears. At that time, I'll grant freedom to all the soldiers and riders!"

Ye Chen's promise stirred Li Nianzong's heart.

He knelt on the ground, looking up at Ye Chen with eyes full of passion, asking excitedly: "Sir, what should I do next? Please instruct me!"

Ye Chen's gaze burned like a torch, speaking loudly: "The officials and special envoys here have already been controlled by me. For now, you riders are the ones with the highest authority to speak, so I need you to cooperate with me and round up all those fanatical soldiers who are willing to sacrifice their lives for Break Clear, leaving none behind!"

Li Nianzong exclaimed in surprise: "Sir, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. The riders have also suffered at the hands of Break Clear for a long time, but they haven't had an opportunity to escape from their control. Now that you're giving us this unprecedented chance, I believe all the riders will definitely follow your lead, listen to your commands, and strive to defeat Break Clear!"

Ye Chen shook his head slightly, speaking calmly: "You have courage, strategy, and backbone, but it seems you still lack some understanding of human nature."

As he spoke, Ye Chen's expression turned cold and stern: "You don't know that the flag bearer from before has already told me the truth about the antidote and your plans, word for word. Compared to opposing Break Clear or risking death in the unknown, he would rather stay with Break Clear and climb up its ranks."

Li Nianzong's eyes widened in surprise, and he blurted out: "Sir... is this really true?!"

"Of course," Ye Chen nodded slightly, revealing to Li Nianzong the conversation contents between him and the flag bearer. JrNovels.com
