Chapter 45 Begging
Jin Renfeng stood up, stopped the other party, and said,
"You don't need to apologize. This is a matter of life and death, and it concerns the lives of your family members. It's normal for you to act on your own."
Although he was not familiar with the other party, this man was also an old man in his fifties. It was a bit too much for Jin Renfeng to bear to see a man of this age bowing to him.
However, Yu Tiecheng suddenly fell to his knees and begged,
"I have one more request, and I hope you will agree to it."
"Just tell me! There's no need to perform such a grand ceremony." Jin Renfeng was surprised to see the old man kneeling in public, and reached out to try to pull him up.
However, Yu Tiecheng kept his head down and was unwilling to get up.
"I beg you to give me the Violent Qingsheng so that I can use it to save the lives of my family."
"I know this request is abrupt, but I really have no other options now. I hope you will have mercy on me and save my family's lives."
"You want that violent birthday celebration? Just say so earlier."
Jin Renfeng spoke calmly. He turned around, picked up Bao Qingsheng, and threw it in front of Yu Tiecheng like throwing away garbage.
"You can take him away now. I was originally worried about how to deal with this guy, and you helped me solve a problem."
Yu Tiecheng's eyes were filled with tears and his head banged heavily on the ground, making a loud bang.
"Thank you very much, benefactor. I am grateful to you. If my family can get through this difficult time, I will serve you like a slave!"
Jin Renfeng stepped forward to support him, and Yu Tiecheng finally stood up.
"Since you have decided to exchange hostages tomorrow, it would be better for Captain Yu to make preparations early," Jin Renfeng advised.
"I know, old man. Once we get the darts, we will start preparing." Yu Tiecheng said.
"Do you need help?"
Seeing that the other party did not make any requests except celebrating his birthday, Jin Renfeng could not help but ask.
Yu Tiecheng shook his head repeatedly.
"There is no need for that. I have a plan in mind, so there is no need to trouble you, benefactor."
Jin Renfeng nodded. Since the other party didn't ask for help, there was no need for him to rush forward to help.
The Demon Cult has many people, which is also a trouble for him.
He sat back in his seat and poured himself a drink to relieve his discomfort.
Yu Tiecheng also walked back to the group of escorts and took action after discussion.
Faintly, the sound of a faint conversation reached Jin Renfeng's ears.
As Jin Renfeng's internal strength increased, his hearing and vision also improved.
Now he can hear clearly even the slightest sound within a dozen feet.
"Captain of the escort, we have to invite this Young Master Jin! The martial arts of that demon sect are really powerful, we are no match for them." Someone said anxiously.
"Yes! Chief Escort, without that Young Master Jin, how can we rescue anyone?"
"I'm afraid that once the cult takes action, we will be trapped." Someone said in a panic.
Everyone expected Yu Tiecheng to ask Jin Renfeng to come and help.
However, Yu Tiecheng shook his head and refused.
"No need to say more! You are willing to hand over the leader of the Red Flag to me. You have done your utmost for me."
"Now that the demon sect has captured my family, and has seen the martial arts of my benefactor, tomorrow the valley will surely become a den of dragons and tigers."
"At this time, if I ask my benefactor to help me, wouldn't that be harming him?"
"If anything happens to my benefactor, I will be held responsible for my death."
"But escort leader, Young Master Jin is a skilled martial artist, so he might not care about those enemies." Guan Pengju advised, "What we consider to be a big deal might not be worth mentioning in the eyes of Young Master Jin."
"Besides, Young Master Jin asked you before, and it's obvious that he wants to help you."
"That won't work either!" Yu Tiecheng shook his head.
"Even if he is gifted, he is only a teenager now. Even if he practiced in his mother's womb, it would have been only a dozen years. How could he possibly be a match for the hundreds of people in the Demon Cult?"
"In short, no matter what, I will not persuade you to take action. I have made up my mind, so please stop talking."
The escorts looked at each other and fell silent.
After hearing the conversation between Yu Tiecheng and the bodyguard, Jin Renfeng nodded. Yu Tiecheng still had some conscience and did not take the initiative to involve him. He was a rare person with principles and bottom line.
"Captain, what should we do tomorrow?" Guan Pengju asked. "What arrangements do we have?
"Tomorrow I will go alone with the darts." Yu Tiecheng said calmly. "Brothers, don't take action."
"One person?" Guan Pengju looked surprised. "How can this be possible? The Demon Cult has so many people..."
Yu Tiecheng shook his head and said calmly,
"The Demon Cult has many people. Even if you brothers go with me, it will only increase casualties. It is better for me to go alone and burn my boats. Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope to get my family back."
At this point he sighed.
"If possible, I hope you brothers will do me a favor tomorrow."
"Just tell me, leader!" said Guan Pengju.
A group of escorts also responded.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Yu Tiecheng nodded and said,
"Tomorrow I will go into the valley alone to deal with the evil sect. I hope my brothers can prepare fast horses and wait outside the valley to help me pick up my family."
"What about you, Escort Leader?"
"I have my own way to leave." Yu Tiecheng looked puzzled.
Everyone knew that the escort leader was determined to die, but in the current situation, there was no other way. They could only stop asking questions.
"I hope you brothers can wait for me outside the valley for half an hour. If my family hasn't left the valley after half an hour, you brothers should leave as soon as possible and don't let the people from the Demon Cult catch up with you."
Yu Tiecheng clasped his fists and pleaded.
"We can handle these minor matters, so don't worry."
Afterwards, the escorts took action separately and began to prepare for tomorrow's action.
. . . . . .
Fearing revenge from the cult, Jin Renfeng changed to another inn to stay.
At night, he lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Years of energy-cultivation efforts have become a waste of time.
The scene of Yu Tiecheng begging desperately during the day kept replaying in Jin Renfeng's mind.
Thinking about how all 23 members of his family were captured because of a dart, he couldn't help but feel a surge of sympathy.
"Fuck, what kind of world is this? I was just escorting a treasure, I didn't ask anyone for help, and that evil cult thief inexplicably took a fancy to the treasure, and directly kidnapped my family, kidnapped and threatened them. What a bunch of beasts."
He cursed indignantly.
Jin Renfeng, who comes from the modern world, really can't stand this kind of injustice.
However, Jin Renfeng was a little hesitant about helping Yu Tiecheng.
After all, there were hundreds of demon sect followers! The number of people was comparable to that of an ordinary sect.
Even if he had learned the Dugu Nine Swords, it would still be very stressful for him to deal with so many enemies alone.
