Chapter 47 Struggle
"Chengde?" Yu Tiecheng looked reluctant.
"Dad, please save me!" the man cried for help.
"What, do you want to hand it over? As long as you hand over the Jade Guanyin, I will let your son go." Xue Gang smiled proudly, obviously confident of victory.
"If you touch a hair of my son, I will destroy this Jade Guanyin!" Yu Tiecheng said angrily.
"Hey! Threaten me? Are you worthy enough?" Xue Gang looked at me with contempt.
"If you break the Jade Guanyin, all 23 members of your family will be killed today."
"I want to see if you have the courage!"
"Do it!"
Xue Gang shouted loudly.
Two black-clad sect members, holding hammers and nails, folded Yu Chengde's hands, lifted him up in the air, and hammered a nail into the tree trunk.
Blood splattered as the long nail pierced directly through the palm of the hand and entered the trunk of the tree.
what--
Yu Chengde screamed miserably and struggled like a fish.
However, because his body was suspended in the air, the more he struggled, the bigger the wound became, and the more intense the pain became.
The blood flowed down his arms, staining his entire body like a bloody man.
In a short while, he was dying.
"Chengde?" Yu Tiecheng felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.
He originally thought that by using the Jade Guanyin as a threat, he could force these people from the Demon Sect to release the people. By then, there would be people from their escort agency to pick them up outside the valley, and his family would be safe.
In this way, even if he died, at least his entire family's lives were saved.
But he didn't expect that the people from the Demon Cult would be so cruel and would kill people right away.
At this moment, he was in a dilemma. If he handed over the Jade Guanyin, his family would be completely unprotected.
If he doesn't hand it over, his son is now facing a life-and-death crisis.
At this moment, Yu Tiecheng felt as if he was in the magma of hell, suffering from torture.
A quarter of an hour later, Yu Chengde was no longer able to make any sound, and could not even groan.
"Wow! You're quite resilient!" Xue Gang's eyes were full of joking. "Since he won't hand it over, pick another person to go up."
Jiang Feichen sneered, then walked forward, came to a woman, and picked up a three-year-old child.
"No, no!" The woman was unwilling to let go and begged desperately, but was kicked away by Jiang Feichen.
"Xiang An?" Yu Tiecheng's pupils dilated when he saw the child. "You beast, Xiang An is only three years old. What are you going to do to him?"
"Of course we have to do what we haven't done before." Jiang Feichen said with a sinister smile.
He carried the child as if he were a pendant, walked to the side, and placed him on the tree.
The child's arms were hung up, and he cried out in pain.
"Dad, Mom, Grandpa, come and save me, An'er is in so much pain!"
The child cried for help.
An'er, the woman tried desperately to move forward, but was stopped by the man in black.
"What do you think? Yu Tiecheng, are you going to hand it over or not?" Jiang Feichen was calm and waited for Yu Tiecheng to make a decision.
Yu Tiecheng's eyes were bloodshot and two lines of tears flowed from his eye sockets.
That was his most beloved grandson, but now he was being tortured by the evil cult monster.
"Oh! You're quite tough!" Jiang Feichen joked, then handed the boy over to the followers to be controlled, and took the hammer and nails with his own hands.
Yu Tiecheng felt heartbroken, but he could only watch.
Seeing that Yu Tiecheng didn't react, Jiang Feichen didn't say anything and directly nailed the child's tender palm.
"Stop it, I surrender!"
A faint voice sounded, and Yu Tiecheng collapsed and fell to the ground, as if he had aged by dozens of years.
Jiang Feichen, who had been attacking fiercely, suddenly stopped and a smile appeared on his face.
"Why shouldn't you have said this earlier? Why let your family suffer like this?"
Seeing that Jade Guanyin was about to succeed, Jiang Feichen was in a good mood. He took the crying child, held him in his arms, rocked him a few times, and coaxed him a few words.
"Since you want to hand it over, hand it over now!" Jiang Feichen said lightly.
"I will only give it to you if you put my grandson and son down." Yu Tiecheng said indifferently, feeling hopeless.
"Okay!" Seeing that the treasure was about to be obtained, Jiang Feichen became much more talkative.
Yu Chengde, who was originally nailed to the tree, was taken down and sent back to the Yu family hostages along with his three-year-old child.
Seeing his grandson and son being put down, Yu Tiecheng walked forward slowly and placed the Jade Guanyin and the package on the ground about ten feet away.
"I only ask that you kings can spare my family's life for the sake of Jade Guanyin." He pleaded.
They hoped that the Demon Cult would obtain the treasure and spare their family.
"No problem! No problem!" Xue Gang laughed and immediately sent someone to take the Jade Guanyin.
When Xue Gang touched the warm and white Jade Guanyin with his own hands, he cheered loudly.
"It is indeed a treasure. Look at its appearance and brilliance. It is truly priceless!" He praised repeatedly.
"I've wasted so much time on you, it's worth it."
"Now that the Jade Guanyin is in our hands, I hope you can abide by the agreement and let my family go." Yu Tiecheng knelt down and begged.
"Oh, there's this, I almost forgot about it!" Xue Gang suddenly realized it, as if he had just remembered it. He turned around and looked at Yu Tiecheng, laughing.
"You old bastard, you really know how to play tricks on me. You've wasted so much of my energy. Now that the treasure is finally in my hands, let me see how I'm going to deal with you."
"Jiang Feichen!"
"My subordinate is here!"
"You nail the twenty-three members of the Yu family to a tree, and I will watch them bleed to death."
He waved his hand and gave the order casually.
"I obey your command!" Jiang Feichen responded with a fist salute.
Then dozens of black-clad followers came forward and dragged the twenty-two people to the big tree, with hammers and nails ready.
"What are you doing? Didn't you agree to let my family go?"
Yu Tiecheng shouted quickly.
"What are you shouting about?" Xue Gang carefully put the Jade Guanyin into a box and asked his subordinates to keep it. He scratched his ears and said.
"You old bastard, you made me spend so much time looking for you, and you still want me to let you go? What are you dreaming about?"
"We clearly agreed on this before! How can you be considered a hero if you go back on your word?" Yu Tiecheng struggled.
"So I'm breaking the contract now? Is that not okay?" Xue Gang blew on his fingers and said disdainfully, "I'm the leader of the Divine Religion. How can any hero in the martial arts world compare to me?"
"Don't forget, Bao Qingsheng is still in my hands." Yu Tiecheng was unwilling to give up. He held a long knife in his hand, stabbed Bao Qingsheng in the back, and threatened.
"If you dare to do anything to my family, I will kill him."
Xue Gang and Jiang Feichen looked at each other and burst into laughter.
"Don't waste your energy!" Bao Qingsheng said calmly, "I didn't do my job well. Even if I go back, I will be executed. Xue Gang is so cruel. How could he come to save me?"
"What they said before was just to use me as a bargaining chip to stabilize you and give you some hope."
"When did you see me ask them for help?"
Yu Tiecheng then realized that from the beginning to the end, Bao Qingsheng had never communicated with Jiang Feichen at all. He didn't even ask the other party to save him when he was captured.
Yu Tiecheng suddenly felt despair.
