Chapter 625: A Grave Mistake, Complicated Human Nature! Part 2
Language was the most powerful tool to control people.
He could deceive hundreds of laborers from other parts of the New World into this nest in the mountain and suppress them with such strict rules for so long.
It was evident how well they were able to use their words.
At the same time, it also proved that those who the Liu brothers deceived had terrible judgment and were not strong, to the point of being considered weak.
They were deceived once and oppressed to the point of death.
Yet now, their wounds had just healed, and they had already forgotten the pain they had gone through.
They were so accustomed to it that they were easily convinced and even wavered after the Liu brothers’ nonsense. They took several steps back and averted their eyes, making it hard to determine their thoughts.
Even the short woman who was with the tall woman before was doubtful and subconsciously took a step away from the tall woman.
The honest were the easiest to deceive and convince.
In just a few seconds, the atmosphere in the cave had changed entirely and became increasingly tense!
...
“The eyes of the masses are sharp! You’ve seen it for yourself! Now, let us go! We will pretend that nothing happened, and give you a chance to repent for your actions!

They had people who were siding with them.
However, the expedition team member holding them down did not react at all.
They were increasingly bold and vigorous. They did not act like prisoners at all. Instead, they spoke as if they stood on a high platform deciding the fate of another.
“Brothers with guns, you should listen to my advice. You’ll end up dead if you continue to work under him! You might as well follow me. I promise that as long as both of us brothers have a bite to eat, none of you will starve!
“The person in the lead will be the only one held accountable if Almighty Su were to look into the matter! The two of us and the people present will testify that you were deceived and coerced by this person. I’m sure Almighty Su wouldn’t mind.
“In the future, when our territory develops, whatever you want, whether it is resources, status, security, or even women, I will...”
When he started the first half of his sentence, he noticed that everyone had an indifferent expression. However, there was an evident “curiosity” in their eyes, which excited Liu Zhi.
He could not stop fantasizing about owning a 100-people armed force and how he would be able to conquer every place within 10,000 miles of the mountain to recruit more laborers to serve him.
However, when he reached the second half of his sentence, the soldier’s reaction made him subconsciously stop speaking, and rage built up on his face.
“What’s so funny?!”
He asked the question that even the laborers wanted to know. The Liu brothers looked at the captain and vice-captain who stood in front, then turned to fix their eyes on Su Mo.
Unlike the undisguised mocking smile on the faces of the team behind him, Su Mo’s smirk was faint and seemed harmless to any creature, but when the two saw his expression, they were greatly insulted!
He ignored them!
He was completely unbothered by their words!
It was as if they had put on a useless show the whole time, and Su Mo was amused by the clownish performance in front of him. This chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . Fɪre
“The one on the left is a bit noisy. He needs a few slaps. Let’s begin with...
“Thirty times!”
Su Mo did not even spare a glance at the Liu brothers who were standing on the stone.
He calmly glanced toward Feng Tianmin and issued his first order.
Bang!
Immediately, two soldiers from the team stood out and handed their riffles to the other soldiers beside them with serious expressions.
They took two steps forward, pulled Liu Jie off the stone, and left Liu Zhi alone.
Slap!
Slap!
Su Mo’s order was the ultimate rule. They were ordered to slap him, so that was precisely what they did!
After receiving the order, the two did have any sympathy toward them, and every time they threw a slap at him, they swung their arms in full force.
Liu Jie’s mouth was split open after three slaps, and blood bled out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBy the fifth slap, a white tooth flew out of his mouth and fell on the ground inside the cave, making a slight sound upon impact.
The murderous atmosphere had a terrifying visual impact on those present.
The thirty slaps were finished before everyone could come back to their sense.
The two soldiers returned to the formation, leaving Liu Jie alone on his knees, spewing black blood from his mouth.
The consequences of the gruesome scene were...
None of Liu Jie’s teeth survived.
However, Su Mo had no pity for such a wicked scoundrel.
Carrying his domineering stance, Su Mo’s gaze swept across Liu Zhi, who was still on the stone. The latter seemed to have been immobilized and did not dare to make a sound.
“This is interesting. I thought my face would be able to get a pass in the New World. Never would I have expected to be denied at the first stop.”
The 100-men expedition team immediately suppressed their smiles, stood upright, and maintained a serious expression after hearing Su Mo’s self-deprecating words.
After long-term interaction with him and Li Hu’s training, they became familiar with Su Mo’s combat strength and habits.
In such situations, if Su Mo were to express his anger directly, it would mean that he was not too mad about it and merely did not want to waste time saying too much.
However, judging by the reaction he had to the current situation...
It meant...
“Do you think that you’re in the position to be negotiating with me right now?”
He softly uttered domineering and suffocating words.
