Chapter 315 Risking Life
Chapter 315 Risking Life
Changzhou City, the location of the Changzhou City branch of the Immortal Friends Association.
A jewelry store owner sent a red coral and placed it on Zhu Tianpeng's desk.
"President Zhu, this red coral is rare in the world and priceless. It is the best gift."
Zhu Tianpeng stroked his short beard and said, "Okay, okay, but the price you're asking is too high. Although I'm envious, I really can't afford that much."
The jewelry store owner said, "President Zhu, the Fifth Prince is extremely powerful. He wouldn't be interested in ordinary gifts."
"If you spend more money today, your business will flourish under the Fifth Prince's care and you will earn back the extra money."
Zhu Tianpeng hesitated for a while and said, "Does your jewelry store have any gifts that are a little cheaper?"
The jewelry store owner said, "President Zhu, this is the most suitable one. It's bright red and festive. Besides, tomorrow is the Fifth Prince's wedding day. You need to make a decision quickly."
At this moment, Lu Xunhuan came in from outside and saw the red coral.
"Wow, this is great stuff. This is the first time I've seen this in my life."
He went close to the red coral and couldn't take his eyes off it.
Zhu Tianpeng said with a smile: "Brother, you better be careful. If you break it, it will be a disaster."
Lu Xun Huan said, "This is nice. Is it for the Fifth Prince?"
The jewelry store owner took over and said, "Yes, this is the most festive gift."
Lu Xun Huan took out a thousand taels of silver and said, "Brother Tian Peng, I will give you a thousand taels."
Zhu Tianpeng smiled bitterly and said, "One thousand taels is just a small amount. This thing costs one hundred thousand taels of silver."
Lu Xun Huan seemed surprised: "Oh my god, this is so expensive."
He laughed and pocketed the one thousand taels of silver again: "Then I won't join in the fun. I just came to remind Brother Tianpeng, don't forget to wait for me tomorrow."
Zhu Tianpeng said: "Don't worry, I'll wait for you to come tomorrow and we'll go together, but don't delay, come early."
Lu Xun Huan nodded: "Okay, no problem, I'll be leaving then."
Just as he was about to leave, a member rushed in: "President, there's a woman who says she's from... Taiqing Sect..."
Zhu Tianpeng immediately became nervous when he heard this: "Oh, this person is not friendly. Hurry up and put the coral away."
He asked the member, "How many people are here?"
The member replied, "I only saw one person."
Zhu Tianpeng stroked his short beard and said, "It doesn't make sense for me to be alone. Is there an ambush?"
The member shook his head: "I don't know."
Lu Xun Huan took over the conversation: "Brother Tian Peng, don't panic. They are worried about the safety of the hostages and will not act rashly. Come on, I will deal with it with you."
The two of them left the reception room and went out of another courtyard. In the large courtyard outside the mansion, they saw a woman holding a magic sword.
This woman was naturally the one invited by Lu Xunhuan, the Feixue Fairy from the Feixian Sect.
However, she is now pretending to be from Taiqing Sect.
Lu Xunhuan brought Zhu Tianpeng and stopped three meters away from Fairy Feixue.
He pretended to look Fairy Feixue up and down and said, "What's your name, Fairy?"
Fairy Feixue's face was stern. "Let's not talk nonsense. Your president has arrested our people. Now I'm here. What conditions will you require to release them? Just tell me directly."
Zhu Tianpeng asked from behind Lu Xunhuan, "Did your Taiqing Sect send only you?"
Fairy Feixue said, "Don't worry about how many people you send. Just state the conditions."
Zhu Tianpeng said, "The president said, if you kill five people on the spot, I'll hand the people over to you."
Fairy Feixue snorted, "You said you wanted to commit suicide? Five people for one, how could he come up with that?"
Zhu Tianpeng said: "In that case, there is nothing we can do. You can go back and discuss it."
Fairy Feixue shook her sword and said, "Is he trying to force my Taiqing Sect into a dead end? Fine, let's fight to the death. This fairy will destroy your branch first."
After she finished speaking, her magic sword danced in the air, creating thousands of sword flowers, and rushed towards the two of them like thunder.
Lu Xun Huan quickly swung his sword to block Fei Xue Fairy's attack: "Fairy, don't be impulsive. We can talk it over."
Fairy Feixue snorted, "It's easy to say, but I don't think it's easy to say. It's a dead end anyway, so why not take someone with you to take the blame?"
Lu Xunhuan pretended to be exhausted, fighting and retreating. He shouted to Zhu Tianpeng, "Brother Tianpeng, quickly call your president."
Zhu Tianpeng retreated quickly and had already retreated to the back of the door: "I don't know where the president is."
Lu Xun Huan dodged awkwardly and slipped into the inner door: "Then hand over the hostage first, save your life, and we will find a solution later."
Zhu Tianpeng ran back again: "This..."
Lu Xun Huan frantically tried to defend himself, but was forced to retreat. "Fairy, Fairy, I'm not from the Fairy Friends Association."
Fairy Feixue shouted, "You are not from the Fairy Friends Association, why are you joining in the fun? Get out."
She let go of Lu Xunhuan and rushed straight towards Zhu Tianpeng.
Zhu Tianpeng had no way to escape and could only jump out of the window.
But just as he opened the window, Fairy Feixue came like lightning, grabbed his clothes and exerted force in her hands.
Zhu Tianpeng was caught back, thrown out again, and fell into the corner.
With a "bang", the wooden wall was smashed and shattered all over the ground.
He awkwardly rolled to his feet from the debris, but before he could run, he was kicked in the butt and flew out again.
Lu Xun Huan hurried out and said to a trembling member, "The president can't show up right now. Get the hostage out quickly, or you might save your lives. Otherwise, you'll all be killed today."
He roared, "Save your life first, understand?"
The member turned around quickly and said, "Hold her, I'll go right away."
On the other side, Zhu Tianpeng was kicked again and again, from one room to another, and had already broken through four walls. The scene was a mess.
Lu Xun Huan rushed over and said, "Fairy, Fairy, please show some mercy. I'll send someone over right away."
Fairy Feixue stepped on Zhu Tianpeng's back and said, "If you can't see him in half a minute, his head will fall to the ground."
Lu Xun Huan quickly knelt down: "Fairy, don't be impulsive, half a quarter of an hour, just half a quarter of an hour..."
He turned around and shouted to the other side: "Hurry up, only half a quarter of an hour."
Fairy Feixue glared and asked, "Aren't you from the Fairy Friends Association?"
Lu Xun Huan shook his head: "No, I'm not. I just came here to chat and drink tea."
Fairy Feixue shook her sword and said, "If you continue to join in the fun, I'll kill you first. Get out of here."
Lu Xun Huan quickly got up and said, "I'm leaving, I'm leaving. Don't be impulsive. Brother Tian Peng was a good man. It's a pity that he died..."
Fairy Feixue raised her sword and shouted, "Get out!"
Lu Xunhuan quickly ran away: "Brother Tianpeng, don't be stubborn, save your life first."
He quickly left the mansion, but did not go far away. Instead, he jumped onto the roof of a house and waited anxiously.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, Fairy Feixue appeared.
She grabbed Xiangxiang, took off from the ground, flew out of the mansion, and disappeared like a flash of lightning.
Lu Xunhuan then quickly got off the ground and ran into the mansion: "Brother Tianpeng, Brother Tianpeng..."
Zhu Tianpeng lay on the ground like a dead pig, motionless.
Beside him, two members were feeling his pulse.
Lu Xunhuan stepped forward and asked, "What's going on?"
One member said: "The branch president was knocked unconscious, but he's not seriously injured."
Lu Xun Huan pretended to breathe a sigh of relief: "It's good that he's not dead. Quickly carry him to the bed."
He turned around and said, "You guys pack up, I'll try to track them and see if I can catch up."
After saying this, he left quickly.
Lu Xunhuan had made careful calculations before inviting Fairy Feixue.
In order to keep his identity secret, the president of the Immortal Friends Association tries to reduce his appearances as much as possible and usually communicates with local branches through single channels.
If this is the case, everyone will not be able to find him when they are anxious to find him.
If the president was not in the branch, and Fairy Feixue came, even if she wiped out the Changzhou City branch of the Fairy Friends Association, the president would not be able to know about it in the first place.
And if Xiangxiang is indeed hidden in the Changzhou City branch, Fairy Feixue can scare them and force them to hand over Xiangxiang in the shortest time possible, then Fairy Feixue can also escape calmly.
Because the president didn't know she was coming.
If he wants to get the news, he has to wait for the news to spread.
After much deliberation, Lu Xunhuan decided to take the risk by exploiting the loophole of the Immortal Friends Association.
When he chased out, Fairy Feixue had long disappeared.
He ran all the way to the east city wall and asked the soldiers on duty.
The soldier said that he saw a woman with another woman, riding a magic weapon, flying out of the city and heading straight east.
He pretended to be upset and went back to Xialou.
