Chapter 44 Stalemate Hearing this, Yu Tiecheng frowned and clasped his fists, "Your Excellency has asked me to do this, but I cannot do it. The sword is in my benefactor's hands. How can I be qualified to persuade him to stop?" "Hey!" The man in black smiled sinisterly, "Yu, you have to do it today, whether you want to or not. If you don't let Brother Bao go, the lives of your entire family will be in danger." "What does this have to do with my family? My family is not here." Yu Tiecheng was puzzled. "You old fellow, you are a veteran in this world. Brother Bao is the leader of the Red Banner of Jiangxi. He chased you all the way to Xiangyang City. Didn't you think of anything?" Jiang Feichen sneered. Yu Tiecheng suddenly felt something was wrong and a look of panic appeared on his face. "To tell you the truth, all 23 members of your Yu family were captured by our Sun Moon Divine Sect and brought to the vicinity of Xiangyang City. If anything happens to Brother Bao, all 23 members of your family will be turned into dust." Jiang Feichen spoke threateningly with a sinister look in his eyes. Hearing that his family was threatened, Yu Tiecheng's eyes suddenly turned red and he roared, "You bastards! You beasts! If you want to do anything to me, just come at me. Why do you want to touch my family? My Iron Fist Escort Agency and your Demon Sect have always been at peace with each other. Why are you persecuting me like this?" Jiang Feichen sneered. "Who told you to be so ignorant as to accept this escort mission?"
"To tell you the truth, the 49-jin mutton-fat jade Guanyin that you sent has long been favored by a great figure in my Divine Religion. That great figure plans to give it to the current leader of my Divine Religion as a birthday gift." "But I didn't expect that just when we were about to take action, the rich man asked your Iron Fist Escort Agency to send him away." "Seeing that the treasure was in your hands, that lord mobilized the people from Jiangxi to follow you all the way." "What does that have to do with my family? You can just come to me directly. At worst you can kill me and take the treasure." Yu Tiecheng asked. "If I don't bring your family here, what if you get angry and destroy the jade? Where can I find another jade Guanyin for that master?" Jiang Feichen showed disdain. "The lives you are waiting for are of no concern, but delaying that lord's important business is of great concern." Yu Tiecheng was in a state of panic. He raised his fists but then forced them down and asked anxiously. "What do you want?" "Give me the Jade Guanyin, and let that kid release Brother Bao, and I will return your family to you." Jiang Feichen said proudly. Yu Tiecheng was hesitant. When he heard that his family had been kidnapped, his thoughts were in a mess. "Don't be impatient!" Jin Renfeng, who had been watching from the sidelines, gave a reminder. "Jiang Feichen said that he had captured Yu Biaotou's family, but no one knows what actually happened. Yu Biaotou didn't see it with his own eyes, so it's useless to panic." Yu Tiecheng then realized that what the other party said was just one-sided, and he had never seen where his relatives were with his own eyes. He asked back, "My family is not in front of me, how can I trust you?" "Whether you believe it or not, it's all up to you." Jiang Feichen said jokingly. "If you really don't believe me, I can bring your grandson's head here."
"But by then your family will be dead, and you won't have the chance to regret it." "You actually attacked Xiang An? He was only three years old." Yu Tiecheng couldn't believe it. "When we in the Divine Religion take action, we don't care about your age." Jiang Feichen said coldly. The situation reached a stalemate. Yu Tiecheng was breathing rapidly, his hair and beard were standing on end, like an angry lion. After hesitating for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Then I can give you the Jade Guanyin, and I will do my best to meet your request, but I want to see my family safe and sound." "If you don't see my family, I will smash the Jade Guanyin into pieces and never give it to you." Jiang Feichen curled his lips. "I know you won't be honest. Okay, since you want to see it, I'll let you see it." "Tomorrow at noon, you bring the Jade Guanyin and Brother Bao to the valley east of the city. Then, we will trade hostages and treasures." Yu Tiecheng struggled, but finally relaxed. "Okay, I'll take Baoyu with me tomorrow at noon." "But you also have to ensure that my family is not harmed." "Who cares about the lives of a bunch of bastards?" Jiang Feichen said disdainfully. Then he cupped his fists and said to the red-clothed man who was being held hostage by Jin Renfeng, "Brother Bao, please be patient for half a day. I will rescue you tomorrow." Bao Qingsheng was pointed at by a sword and dared not move. Jiang Feichen didn't expect a reply, so he shouted loudly. "withdraw!" Soon, the black-clad followers retreated hastily like a tide. . . . . . . The demon cult members left, leaving behind a mess. A group of bodyguards surrounded Yu Tiecheng, discussing countermeasures. "Captain, what should we do now?" Guan Pengju asked. After experiencing this great battle, he deeply realized the gap between his inferior martial arts and the Demon Cult. For a moment, I was at a loss. Yu Tiecheng remained silent, he didn't know what to do. "Since the Demon Cult wants it, let's hand it over!" an escort suggested. "If we hand it over, we will have nothing to do with the Demon Cult and we can get out of this." "No!" another escort retorted.
"The demon sect has always been untrustworthy. We can use the treasure to threaten them. If they lose the treasure, we will be like meat on the chopping board, at their mercy." "And once we hand over the goods, the reputation of the escort agency will be ruined. If the employer comes to ask for it again, what can we use as collateral?" "But the escort leader's family is now trapped in the hands of the Demon Cult. If we don't hand it over, I'm afraid their lives will be in danger." "But even if we hand it over, the other party may not release us. I think it's better to use the Jade Guanyin as a threat." A group of escorts got into a quarrel. "shut up!" Guan Pengju shouted, "What are you guys arguing about? Everything will be decided by the escort leader." The quarrel gradually died down. Everyone looked at Yu Tiecheng who was sitting at the table, waiting for him to make a decision. . . . . . . While they were arguing, Jin Renfeng asked the waiter to bring ropes and tied up the violent Qingsheng tightly. He also searched his body to prevent him from carrying poisonous darts. After dealing with the trouble, he stood up, sat down at a table that was still intact, and drank a cup of tea. Speaking of which, this was the first time he had ever killed someone in his life. Although Jin Renfeng looked calm on the surface, he was extremely frightened inside. The stomach and intestines in the body are churning and uncomfortable, and vomiting may occur at any time. With the help of tea, I was able to suppress it. "Golden Eun-gong!" Jin Renfeng had just finished drinking the tea when he heard someone calling him. He looked up and saw that Yu Tiecheng had walked up to his side without him noticing. "This time I was rude. I made the decision on my own behalf and said I wanted to hand over that violent Qingsheng." Yu Tiecheng looked apologetic, stood in front of Jin Renfeng and bowed to apologize. (End of this chapter)
