Chapter 405: Request Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
His gaze swept past Lind Jones and then Hei Yao…
Their expressions remained unchanged, especially Hei Yao.
In the end, he turned back and glanced at Liu Yu, who was not far away.
In comparison, Hei Yao was the least likely to betray him.
If he wanted to betray him, there was no need to risk his life to save him from Ghost Slaughter Island back then. Wouldn’t it be simpler to let him die on Ghost Slaughter Island?
Lind Jones was at most a partner and couldn’t take over the matters around him. Lind Jones wasn’t capable of stopping the news and making him believe the fake news.
Could it be Liu Yu?
His biological son was also the most loyal to him.
It couldn’t be Liu Yu either.
Or was it Feng Lun who was dead?
That was even more impossible.
Feng Lun was brawny and simple-minded. He was also very loyal to him. After all, the Feng Family still needed him to make a name for themselves.
With this doubt, Liu Guang said, “This time, I’ve lost to you. A loss is a loss. But so what if I lose? You can’t kill me either.”
“No, no, no. You’re wrong. It’s not that I can’t kill you. I just don’t want the people around us to be injured. If we really have to use all our strength, we’ll at most be injured, and you’ll definitely die.”
“If you don’t believe me, you can try.”
“You know very well that it’s already very difficult to win against the four of us together. We still have many people here.”
“The person beside me is famous enough, right? He did not just come by himself. He brought a group of people with him this time.”
“The one who walked over with Little Rain. Do you see that? The eldest son of the Qin Family. I don’t think I need to say much about his ability. His existence is specially for interaction with special people like Ghost Slaughter. The people surrounding the Feng Family are all his people.”
“Since he specializes in dealing with special people like you, you should know that the people under him are not to be trifled with, right?”
“How are you going to win in such a situation?”
“You’re a smart person. You should know the pros and cons. Why struggle? Tell us that person’s whereabouts and I’ll let you leave. This is a very good deal.”
Liu Guang sneered, “Why don’t you let me get someone to send that person over so that we can leave?”
Yan Jinyu’s eyes lit up. “Eh, why didn’t I think of that? This is a good idea!”
“If you tell us that person’s whereabouts, we still have to investigate it ourselves. That person is still guarded by your people. It’s not safe either. Why don’t you just get someone to send that person over? It’s like asking for money when you meet a kidnapper.”
“Since you know that that person is surrounded by my people and you still dare to threaten me like this, aren’t you afraid that I’ll make a call and my people will deal with her directly?”
“You haven’t made a move for 11 years. You won’t make a move on her for the time being.” Feng Yun exposed him.
“Not for the time being? You’re naive again. Have you forgotten what I said over there so quickly?”
“It’s fine if you’ve forgotten. I’ll remind you again. Her only value now is to restrain you. Since she can’t restrain you, why should we keep her around?”
Liu Guang held the dagger in one hand and took out his phone with the other.
He waved his phone.
“She’ll die immediately if I make a call.”
“If you don’t believe me, you can try.” He returned Yan Jinyu’s words to her.
Yan Jinyu narrowed her eyes.
She did not know who “that person” was just now, but when she heard this “11 years”, she roughly guessed it. Feng Yun had left Ghost Slaughter Island 11 years ago, and his parents had also suffered misfortune 11 years ago.
Although it was a little unbelievable that the person who had already passed away was still alive, only his parents could make Feng Yun endure the hatred eleven years ago.
She just didn’t know if it was his father or mother.
However, regardless of who it was, since she already knew…
She even interfered when Feng Yun didn’t leave the courtyard back then. Of course, she had to interfere in this matter too.
“What do you want?”
The three of them spoke in unison.
Yan Jinyu looked at Yin Jiujin and Feng Yun, who had spoken together with her.
Especially Feng Yun, the change in his emotions was very obvious.
He was carefree and it was easy to tell when his emotions changed.
He was very worried.
He was even very afraid.
“It’s very simple. Let us go and she’ll naturally be fine.”
Yin Jiujin and Feng Yun were still a little hesitant, so Yan Jinyu said without thinking, “Alright!”
“However, I have a condition.”
Liu Guang didn’t expect her to agree so readily. If she didn’t raise the conditions, he would be worried that she would have some scheme. He would be relieved if she raised the conditions.
“What condition?”
She pointed at Lind Jones. “This person is my enemy. He has to stay and be dealt with by me.”
Liu Guang didn’t answer immediately. He was obviously hesitating.
Lind Jones smiled. “I didn’t expect myself to be so important. I can even be used as a condition for the two of you to negotiate. If Mr. Liu doesn’t keep me, you can’t leave safely. Doesn’t that mean that Mr. Liu’s life is on me?”
“I’m suddenly under a lot of pressure.”
He looked at Liu Guang and said seriously for a second, “Mr. Liu, you have to think carefully before you say anything. Don’t forget about being a disloyal person when we agreed on the conditions back then.”
“No matter what, I’m still the head of the Jones Family. No matter how much power I’ve lost now, I’m still the head of the Jones Family.”
“Our Country Y’s influential families are not like your country. The head of the family is the person with the most power in the family and also the face of the family. If I die here because of Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu will probably be hunted by the Jones Family for the rest of his life.”
“Of course, it’s another matter if Mr. Liu has the ability to destroy the entire Jones Family to prevent future trouble.”
Liu Guang frowned.
In the current situation, another enemy would be very disadvantageous to him. He wouldn’t be able to spare anyone to destroy the Jones Family for a while.
Instead of that, it was better to have a partner.
“No! Change the condition.”
“Alright, let’s change it then.”
Her casual attitude was shocking.
Liu Guang and Lind Jones’s probing gazes suddenly landed on her.
Yan Jinyu wasn’t afraid of them sizing her up either.
Her expression was serious, as if she was seriously considering what other conditions she wanted to make.
Suddenly, Yan Jinyu asked, “I heard you say that you want to use that person to restrain Cousin Feng Yun. What do you mean?”
She had actually guessed it, but she was still uncertain.
“Let him be used by me.”
Yan Jinyu frowned slightly. “So, do you mean that you’re going to leave with Cousin Feng Yun?”
“That’s right. If he wants that person to be safe, he has to be used by me. Since he’s used by me, he naturally has to follow me!”
Looking at him, Yan Jinyu sneered, “You’re really good at doing business. You’ve used one bargaining chip so many times! Not only do you use it as a threat to make us let you and your group leave, but you also use it to threaten Cousin for your use!”
“What’s wrong with that? We don’t care how many times the chips are being used. It’s fine as long as we can use them, right?”
“So, your condition?”
“My condition is to let Cousin Feng Yun stay and not leave with you!”
Feng Yun was surprised.
He was a little surprised and yet felt that it was reasonable for her to make such a condition.
“No!” This time, Liu Guang answered very decisively without any hesitation.
Yan Jinyu narrowed her eyes.
He valued Feng Yun so much?
“Why not?”
“I really don’t understand. You’re Cousin’s enemy. He wants to kill you wholeheartedly. Aren’t you worried that he’ll find a chance to attack you if you keep him by your side? Besides, Cousin has sworn to kill you. Even if you bring him along and let him work for you, you won’t let him come into contact with your core power, nor will you let him do some important missions.”
“If you keep him by your side, you still have to guard against him. Why are you doing this?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. This condition isn’t feasible!”
“That won’t do either. Then, don’t leave. At most, I’ll spend some effort to make you stay. I believe the person you used as a bargaining chip will be very happy when she finds out! After all, she exchanged her life for so many of yours!”
Yan Jinyu had always acted abnormally. When Liu Guang heard her say that, he didn’t dare to be careless. He was afraid that she really didn’t care about anything and only wanted them to stay.
“Think of another condition. If it’s not too much, I’ll agree to it!”
“You said that!”
“Then, listen carefully. My condition is that I want to know everything about a person called Liu Junqing!”
Yin Jiujin’s heart skipped a beat when he heard that.
After making such a big detour, it turned out that this was the young lady’s purpose.
And she was clearly doing this for him.
She was really a young lady that no matter how much he liked her, it was not enough.
“You have to tell me everything you know. Don’t lie to fool me.. Since I dare to ask, I naturally have some knowledge too.”
