Chapter 172: The Trial of Justice

“How about this, I can give you a chance to live!

“Just leave your money and the woman by your side here, and I can let you leave this place alive!”

After hearing that person’s overconfident words, Mike scoffed.

“Who gave you the courage to speak to me like this?”

The bandits standing at the side laughed when they saw Mike’s arrogance.

“Kid! Don’t be so shameless! Don’t you understand your current situation? How dare you speak to us like this? Do you have a death wish or something?”

When Mike heard this, he sneered and continued to speak.

“In my opinion, the ones who have a death wish are you guys!”

Lilian could no longer bear the stares of the bandits surrounding them, so she said to Mike.

“Stop talking nonsense, let’s just take some action!”

After saying that, Lilian immediately flew into the air.

Her palm circulated a large amount of true energy, and in an instant, she struck at the numerous bandits.

Then, Mike pulled out the Scarlet Magic Sword from the void.

Numerous dark red flames covered the Scarlet Magic Sword, which Mike only waved lightly.

A huge explosion of flames hit all the bandits present.

The bandits in front of them had never seen such a situation before.

All of them immediately panicked.

“Have mercy! Spare my life!”

Before one of the bandits could finish his words, the flames on the Scarlet Magic Sword quickly devoured him.

At that point, Lilian’s true energy had disturbed everyone present.

Seeing this, one of the more mellow-looking bandits dashed towards the top of the mountain.

He instantly disappeared from Mike and Lilian’s sight.

Lilian was about to chase after him but was stopped by Mike.

“Don’t chase after them. Just wait for them to walk into the trap!”

Lilian nodded when she heard Mike’s words.

The thirty to forty bandits had died here just like that.

Lilian continued to question him.

“Mike, where are we going now? Are we going south or…”

Without waiting for Lilian to finish, Mike said angrily.

“Of course we’re going back to Condon village! We’re going to find that village chief Ensi and interrogate her!”

“I won’t allow anyone to use you as a bargaining chip to negotiate with me!”

Lilian looked at the confident Mike in front of her and felt a little touched.

Lilian smiled at Mike and nodded.

Then, the two of them turned back in the direction of Condon village.

…

After Mike and Lilian arrived at Condon village, there were less than half of the bandits in the village.

However, this group of bandits still existed.

Through this information, Mike determined that the group of bandits who attacked Mike and Lilian were not from the same mountain as the group they saw.

So, Mike looked at Lilian and said, “I think we should go to the Village Chief to ask him about it!”

Lilian nodded without hesitation, and then the two continued to walk to the Village Chief’s residence.

When the two came to the Village Chief’s house, Mike knocked on the door.

This time, Mike did not say anything. He just quietly knocked twice.

Very quickly, the door opened.

Mike looked at the Village Chief on the other side of the door. He could see that she had a fairly joyful look on her face.

“Coming! Coming!”

The Village Chief said happily as she opened the door.

Just then, the Village Chief raised her head and saw that it was Mike who had come.

A look of panic suddenly flashed across her face.

She quickly tried to close the door, but Mike and Lilian would not let go of such an opportunity.

Only using his hand, Mike grabbed the door of the Village Chief’s house hard and easily pulled it down.

The Village Chief looked at Mike in a panic.

Mike then lifted the door and slowly walked towards her.

“Speak! Why did you try to harm us?”

“You… How did you survive?”

Ensi was staring at Mike with a terrified expression.

Mike spoke again.

“Ensi, it looks like you really want us to die!

“Speak! Why did you betray us?”

Mike glared at Ensi angrily.

Ensi also said to Mike with a trembling voice.

“Actually, I didn’t want it to be like this! It’s just…”

“Just what?” Mike asked loudly.

Ensi’s eyes avoided looking at him before she slowly spoke in a low voice.

“It was that group of bandits. The bandits of the Ur Mountain asked us to hand over a beautiful woman, or else they would take away all the young women here. I had no choice!”

Lilian said, “So you made such a selfish decision on your own?”

Lilian was staring at Ensi angrily.

Then, Mike also spoke to Ensi.

“It seems that you don’t care about the young girls in the village at all!

“You just want to rely on them to survive! You’re a piece of scum!

“You’re like vermin to these girls!”

Mike said angrily.

At this time, Ensi also pretended to be repentant.

She slapped herself and kept scolding herself.

“I’m vermin! It’s me who harmed the girls in the village! I’m sorry!”

When Mike saw this hypocritical behavior in front of him, his heart remained angry, but he had not exploded yet.

So, Mike walked closer to Ensi, then he asked, “Tell me, how do you want to solve it now?”

Ensi said, “Haven’t I already apologized to you? What more do you want?”

Mike looked at Ensi’s false bravado before him and said, “Judging by your expression, it looks like the person who is going to save you is on the way, right?”

As Mike finished speaking, Ensi sneered.

Then he said, “Kid! I was still giving some respect just now! I do think highly of you! But, why are you so stubborn?

“Don’t blame me now for being rude!”

At that moment, Ensi seemed to have lit something.

Suddenly, a huge burst of fireworks appeared in the sky.

“Are you trying to call your bandits to come and kill me?”

Mike sneered at Ensi.

Seeing that Mike still had this attitude, Ensi returned his sneer and said.

“Wait to go to hell!”
