Su Mo went to the front of the team, approached the woman, and went straight to the point.
“Although we may not be enemies, we had just gone through a battle with you, and both sides were injured. Inevitably, there might still be some slight misunderstanding between us that hasn’t been resolved.
“How about you chose three people among your team to go inside and inform the situation to your territory lord? What do you say?”
Su Mo stated his suggestion very seriously.
Unexpectedly, the woman’s first reaction was not to immediately agree but to laugh behind her veil.
Her laughter was like soothing bell chimes, and the face vaguely seen through her veil was mysteriously intriguing.
She had a tall nose, almond-shaped eyes, and two neat eyebrows.
At first glance, she did not have the gentleness of an Asian woman but instead had a mysterious aura of an exotic woman.
“Huh?”
Laughter could relieve any tense atmosphere.
The friendliness brought by it could easily erase some previous misunderstandings.
Seeing the other party smile so happily, Su Mo scratched his head but could not help but feel the joy spread to him, and a smile also formed on his face.
“I’m guessing you wouldn’t suddenly believe I’m Su Mo after coming here?”
The woman was stunned momentarily after Su Mo’s voice sounded.
Instantly, her laughter did not stop and instead became slightly louder.
“Well, I already believed you were Su Mo from the moment we met!”
“Huh???”
Anyone would be shocked by someone else suddenly placing their trust in them.
However, Su Mo could sense that the woman was being sincere and not trying to deceive him.
Yet, he found it really strange.
“You already knew from the first time we, but you still…”
“You’ll understand later!”
After successfully confusing him, the woman showed an unreadable smile as if it was a secret she could not reveal. Then, she quickly summoned two women at the team’s rear and whispered a few words into their ears.
The soldiers untied them, and the two “captives” smiling left with light footsteps.
Within a minute, they disappeared from everyone’s sight.
Taking advantage of this time, Feng Tianmin immediately instructed Feng Long to lead the team into a defensive battle formation.
They were on flat open ground and had not much shelter nearby to hide.
In order to prevent a sudden attack by the other party, the two of them did not remain inflexible. They immediately ordered the prisoners to be placed in the forefront of their formation, allowing the soldiers to be protected inside.
With such a formation, the first people who would be injured would be the opponent’s own if they initiated an attack on them.
Although it was a bit inhumane, it was their best option.
Su Mo returned to the center of the defensive formation with the mysterious woman and waited patiently for the informants to return.
A few moments later.
A slight commotion arose, and a few figures appeared.
Seeing the woman stand up excitedly, Su Mo also stood up and picked up his binoculars on his waist to search for the source of the commotion.
However, before Su Mo could bring the binoculars to his eyes, the figure that ran out seemed to have no care.
She ran directly toward them like a fool, and it only took a while for her to enter everyone’s field of vision.
It was a woman with long hair.
She was dressed similarly to the woman they had captured, with a veil on her face. He seemed to be a competent fighter.
She also had a tall figure and was at least 172 centimeters.She had steady footsteps as she dashed toward them, and it was apparent she had been trained.
Three pieces of information formed in Su Mo’s head as he observed the woman running toward them.
Just when Su Mo was about to continue analyzing the other party, she suddenly reached out her hand and pulled off her veil.
Instantly, her veil was gone, revealing a face that was not of a familiar beauty but instead a very exotic and mesmerizing face.
It was an unfamiliar yet very familiar face to Su Mo.
“You’re…”
“This world sure is small!”
Su Mo could finally see the pretty face in front of him. He immediately turned toward the woman he had held captive, who glanced at him with a teasing smile.
He could not help but smile bitterly after realizing the situation.
The doomsday wasteland was considered big, and it was hard for most people to be able to travel through all four corners of it.
Yet, it could also be considered small since he could coincidentally meet an old acquaintance he had barely contacted within the barren mountain.
“You should’ve just told me that Feng Mengyue was your elder sister! We wouldn’t have to go through the battle on the Three Dollar Mountain, and I wouldn’t have to take your people as prisoners!
“Goodness, what a mistake this is! What a mistake!”
Su Mo glanced at the face he could only see in videos that suddenly appeared before her eyes.
It felt as if fate was toying with them.
The piece of glass that was traded with Feng Mengyue was still erected in the underground shelter, serving as an essential ventilation window.
The second live broadcast of the other side’s debate battle was still vivid in his mind.
The supportive messages that Feng Mengyue had sent during the battle against the Five Great Ancestral Gods at sea could still be seen in the conversation window of his friend panel.
The two were strangers who had never met before.
Compared to other people on this wasteland, they were old acquaintances who had not seen each other for a long time!
