He Wangyao couldn't hold back any longer. Although she was only a bronze-level player, she was at least sensible and never held anyone back.
Where did this weird species come from? Not only is it causing trouble, but it also has the nerve to ask for a bounty for a peach wood sword.
"You idiot! Are you crazy? We had us locked up here, and now you want to cause trouble? Believe me or not, I'll beat you up!"
Li Wenhe's eyes were icy: "Want to fight? I'm ready to fight to the bitter end!"
Mingzhuo was stunned. Although Li Wenhe hung out with her and Pei Di, he was actually different from Pei Di, who was quick to anger. He always stayed far away when they fought.
This is the first time I've heard him initiate a fight, and he even rolled up his sleeves, so it seems like he's serious.
Mingzhuo asked Gu Xu in a low voice, "Won't our fight in Xiangshi cause any trouble for your business here?"
She could easily fight and run away, but Gu Xu's presence here today, and his constant companionship these past few days, would obviously make her an accomplice to the enemy.
If someone were to secretly cause trouble, it would bring problems to Gu Xu, something she had to consider.
Gu Xu: "No, in business, it's not me begging others to cooperate, but others begging me to cooperate."
If the other party wants to sanction him in business, they've miscalculated.
He could easily withdraw his investment and freeze cooperation in the upstream and downstream industry chains; in the end, he would definitely not be the one to suffer.
Mingzhuo couldn't help but secretly give Gu Xu a thumbs up, "Ah Xu, you're amazing!"
Gu Xu felt somewhat helpless. This was clearly nothing compared to her, yet she still liked to give sincere praise.
Jiang Yuncheng cautiously took two steps back. He wasn't stupid enough to fight with several people at this moment.
Just then, footsteps and voices came from the direction of the front yard, and someone could be faintly calling, "Fourth Young Master!"
Jiang Yuncheng was overjoyed and shouted, "Here!"
At the same time, the power switch that had been turned off was turned on, and lights poured in, illuminating the yard brightly.
Jiang Yuncheng looked at everyone smugly, "I've already called the association and everyone is coming over. You can't escape."
Tonight, he's going to teach these people a lesson and show them who's really in charge in Hong Kong.
“You secretly lurked here, kidnapped my elder brother, and damaged the Money Sword. What are your intentions?” Jiang Yuncheng said. “You might as well confess honestly and avoid some suffering.”
Mingzhuo understood; this was an attempt to frame him and seize his magic weapon.
“Okay, you can have my sword, but I can keep the copper coins,” she said generously.
Hou Zhihui didn't quite understand, "Can you repair the money sword?"
The Money Sword is the Jiang family's most prized possession and a revered magical artifact among the Xuanmen sects of Xiangshi. It's understandable that Jiang Yuncheng wouldn't let this group leave; after all, the matter is of great importance, and he alone cannot bear the heavy responsibility of destroying the Money Sword. Someone else must take the blame.
Why did Mingzhuo agree to the exchange so readily? You know, once the Money Sword is broken, it's just a pile of useless copper coins.
He Wangyao replied, “Those are 108 antique copper coins. They can definitely fetch a lot of money if we sell them!”
Li Wen and Liang Liang said, "She asked during a previous meeting if we could disassemble the money sword and sell it for money, since it has been passed down for generations and should be an antique."
Hou Zhihui didn't understand why, but that didn't stop him from having a fervent admiration for Mingzhuo.
"Master, you are truly farsighted! You guessed so early that the Money Sword would be dismantled!"
Li Wenhe: "..."
How can you praise someone like that? Isn't this person's defection a bit too complete? Didn't they even put up a fight?
Mingzhuo was speechless: "I didn't, I didn't!"
She turned to Gu Xu beside her and explained, "I just asked casually at the time; I really didn't have any intention of taking this sword."
Gu Xu smiled and nodded, saying, "I believe you."
He discovered that Mingzhuo possessed a strange charm, seemingly making him popular wherever he went.
It's probably because she's beautiful, capable, and kind.
He didn't realize that he had unknowingly put a heavy filter on Ming Zhuo, a filter ten layers thicker than Hou Zhihui's.
Jiang Yuncheng was immediately dissatisfied. He had threatened them for so long, but the expected situation of begging for mercy and making peace did not occur. Instead, this group of people started laughing and talking to themselves.
That's outrageous! Do they even respect me anymore?
"I heard everything. So you were already plotting the Money Sword during the meeting. Well, you've been planning this for a long time!"
Just then, a large group of people arrived at the backyard.
Jiang Yuncheng immediately recognized them as his own men. "Quickly come and grab these people! They injured my elder brother and broke the Money Sword!"
The group of people who arrived were a little confused. They glanced at Jiang Yuncheng warily and didn't dare to step forward for a moment.
Jiang Yuncheng: "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and arrest them!"
The group hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Fourth Young Master, are you alright? Where is Shen Ruodi?"
Just as Jiang Yuncheng was about to bring this up, he replied in a deep voice, "That evil spirit was disguised as my elder brother and tried to ambush me, but I seized the opportunity and killed it."
He Wangyao couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The members of the Xiangshi Xuanmen Association hesitated for a moment, not because they doubted the enemy, but because they were afraid that the enemy was too cunning.
"It was our dereliction of duty not to discover Shen Ruodi's infiltration into our ranks immediately. But Fourth Young Master, what we saw at the time was Shen Ruodi grabbing the Golden Coin Sword and you..."
Jiang Yuncheng's face flushed red as he recalled the image of that evil spirit grabbing him like a chick with one hand.
He never imagined that someone would see that scene!
