Zhou Niannian, hearing this, nodded quickly. Although she didn't want to stay here, she felt uneasy thinking about the trouble she had caused Jiang Fan earlier. For now, she could only obediently remain.
"Don't worry, I'll wait here for you. You can come back whenever you're done. We definitely won't run around, so rest assured. When you return, we'll still be waiting for you right here."
Jiang Fan nodded with satisfaction upon hearing this. Zhou Niannian seemed much more sensible now, which put him slightly at ease.
Jiang Fan and Yao walked out and found that everything around them was quite different from what they had imagined.
"This shouldn't be the case. If they look like this, how could they pose a threat to us? They seem so harmless, and their demeanor is rather amusing, don't you think?"
After saying this, Yao shook his head vigorously, seemingly finding the situation unbelievable.
"That actually makes sense. Why do they appear so harmless? And to be in a candy world... it's truly hard to imagine what threat they could possibly pose to us. I feel like they shouldn't be a threat at all."
Jiang Fan shook his head helplessly after speaking and continued to move forward. The people before him were indeed perplexing. How could such small figures pose any harm to him?
"Why don't we try to communicate with them directly? Perhaps they won't harm us. We could try talking to them nicely, and maybe we can leave this place easily. Don't you think so? If they don't attack us, that would be perfect."
Yao nodded faintly upon hearing this. He also wished to discuss matters with the people before them. If they could coexist peacefully, none of them would be in any danger, and Jiang Fan could easily leave without any problems.
"Alright, if that's the case, let's just walk out directly. They probably won't launch an immediate attack on us. We can then take the opportunity to talk to them properly and make them speak with us honestly."
With that said, the two walked out into the open. Seeing them, the others appeared incredulous and seemed eager to attack Jiang Fan. However, Jiang Fan calmly walked up to them and addressed them.
"Don't worry, we mean you no harm. We are just passing through. We only wish to go on our way and hope you won't attack us. Please don't get too agitated."
Hearing this, the inhabitants of the candy world seemed unwilling to believe Jiang Fan's words and decisively brandished their weapons in threat.
"You better not mess around. I'm telling you, if you take another step forward, we'll attack you directly. Don't think we don't know why you're here. None of you giants are good! The people who came here before killed quite a few of our people. Do you think we'd believe you now?"
Jiang Fan was very helpless upon hearing this. Clearly, these people had misunderstood him. Jiang Fan quickly addressed the leader.
"Don't be so delusional. We can kill you all at any time. We just want to pass through. You have no combat strength, so what makes you think you can fight us? Isn't that right? You'd better step aside obediently."
After Jiang Fan finished speaking, the little people immediately took out their weapons. Jiang Fan hadn't expected them to have cannons.
"No way, people living here can be this powerful?"
"How are they managing to do this with just a bunch of candy? Can even candy be weaponized? This is too outrageous. Let's run quickly and make sure we don't get caught. If we get caught, our lives will be over."
The two finally realized how dangerous this situation was. Jiang Fan and Yao immediately fled frantically, fearing capture by these people. They had cannons, which, while not advanced weapons, could still kill them with a single shot.
"What do we do now? If we want to leave here, it's going to be quite difficult. If we try to escape them, I'm afraid they'll capture us. Then, if we want to leave, we'll have to bring Zhou Niannian, Dai Xiaomei, and Gun Gun with us. It will be impossible to leave undetected with the three of them."
Jiang Fan was also quite helpless. It was indeed as the person before him had said, leaving this place was incredibly difficult. These people seemed to have no room for negotiation and appeared ready to kill Jiang Fan and his companions at any moment. This put Jiang Fan in a rather awkward position.
"There's no other way. We'll have to go back first. After explaining the situation to them, we can think of another plan. Consuming our energy here isn't a good option right now."
With that said, Jiang Fan and Yao secretly circled back.
Seeing Jiang Fan, Zhou Niannian and Dai Xiaomei were both very frightened, fearing that something had happened to the two of them. Seeing them return, they were finally relieved.
"Are you two alright? I thought something else had happened to you. It's so good that you're back. Quickly, come back with us and hide. We'll talk about it later."
Jiang Fan hadn't expected that the people before him had already been waiting for him. Upon seeing the two, he quickly helped them back to a safe place.
"How was it? Was the situation outside alright? Did they attack you? You returned so safely, so you probably didn't fight them, right?"
