C538 Meng Lan's Conditions
"You're all very good. You can see that without experiencing countless life and death battles, it would have been impossible to cultivate such fierce skills and tacit understanding. It's a pity that your qualifications are too poor, otherwise I would have taken you all in as my disciples."
Elder in Taoist Robe, looking at the reunited Tianying and Liu, had a beaming smile on his face.
Tianying did not say anything. The aura on his body became sharper and sharper because he knew that Elder in Taoist Robe was about to make his move.
Liu, on the other hand, didn't think as much as Tianying. He only felt that this old man talked a lot of nonsense, and since the other party had already spoken, it wasn't polite for him to not say anything.
Therefore, he looked at Elder in Taoist Robe very seriously and said, "It's not good to be your disciple. We still want to live for a few more days, so you should give up on this idea."
These words completely infuriated Elder in Taoist Robe. The smile on his face froze as he stared coldly at the two people and slowly said two words: "You're courting death!"
Tianying and Liu looked at each other and then moved at almost the same time.
The two of them flanked Elder in Taoist Robe from the left and right.
"Too slow!"
Elder in Taoist Robe snorted and waved the whisk in his hand gently. The two flew back before they could get close and stopped after sliding for a long distance.
They didn't even touch Elder in Taoist Robe's clothes before they were heavily injured again.
However, Tianying and Liu did not hesitate. Just as they stabilized their bodies, they jumped up again and rushed forward again.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Tianying pulled out a gun from somewhere and fired at Elder in Taoist Robe as he ran.
Liu grabbed a handful of dirt and scattered it.
"Ignorant."
Elder in Taoist Robe commented indifferently. With a flash of his body, he had already left his original place. The bullets and sand from Liu and Tianying suddenly fell to the empty air.
However, the two of them still did not give up. They aimed at Elder in Taoist Robe's figure and rushed forward once again.
However, the difference in strength between the two sides was too big. Elder in Taoist Robe seemed to be annoyed by their trick as he snorted heavily.
The horsetail whisk was covered in dust, and at the same time, their bodies started to blur. Soon after, they heard two bangs, and both Tianying and Liu were sent flying back.
This time, the two of them spat out a few mouthfuls of blood in the air. After falling to the ground, they struggled for a long time before both of them supported each other as they stood up.
"Auntie, take Sister Chu Rou and Lau Ruxue and leave first." Liu turned around and said to Meng Lan. He originally wanted to give Meng Lan a reassuring smile, but as soon as he opened his mouth, blood flowed out uncontrollably. Meng Lan's heart ached.
"Liu, Tianying, if it doesn't work, then don't push it. If you can't beat me, then just give the treasure box to them." Meng Lan said nervously.
Aunty, even if you gave the treasure box to them, they wouldn't let us go. Boss killed Shangguan Heeyan, Old Shangguan and that old fogey are here today to seek revenge on Boss. Now that Boss isn't here and they've captured you guys, they can threaten Boss. Liu said again.
"But if we leave, what will you do?" Meng Lan frowned.
She had to admit that what Liu said was reasonable, but now that Liu and Tianying were both seriously injured, they couldn't even stop Shangguan Qiong and Elder in Taoist Robe. Even if she took Chu Rou and Elder in Taoist Robe and ran, how far could she run?
Meng Lan's mind raced, her eyes filled with determination as she made her decision in an instant.
"Stop! I can give you the Green Jade Treasure Box but you have to leave us with our lives. " Meng Lan suddenly shouted.
"Oh? "It seems like there are still reasonable people among you."
Shangguan Qiong laughed, then narrowed his eyes, and coldly said: "But young miss Meng, didn't you hear what we said just now? Other than the Green Jade Treasure Box, you guys have to leave Lee Hongtian to us. "
"Impossible." Meng Lan said: "Tian is not here right now, even if he is, I would not be able to watch as you take my son away. You take the Green Jade Treasure Box and leave, otherwise I would rather die than let you have your way!"2
Saying that, Meng Lan slowly walked in front of Liu and Liu Tie. She spread her arms like a hen protecting her little chicks, fearlessly looking at the two fierce eagles, Shangguan Qiong and Elder in Taoist Robe.
"Auntie, what are you doing? Danger! Come back quickly!" Liu panicked and was ready to pull Meng Lan away, but his injuries didn't allow him to do anything extra. Before he could move, he was already injured again and began to cough violently, with more and more blood coming out of the corner of his mouth.
Tianying quickly supported him and said in a deep voice to Meng Lan, "Auntie, listen to Liu. Leave quickly, or else if anything happens to you, Boss will come back and kill us all."
"Okay, Tianying, stop talking, hurry up and sit down and rest. You and Liu have protected us for so long, now it's time for aunty to protect you." Meng Lan said without a doubt.
Then, she took out the Green Jade Treasure Box that Shangguan Qiong was yearning for, and placed it on the ground, then used her foot to step on it, then looked at Shangguan Qiong and Elder in Taoist Robe, and said loudly: "I am a woman, I do not have much ability, but I do have the strength to destroy this treasure box with one stomp, what about it, do you need some time to discuss, do you want to agree to my conditions, or just kill us right now, and end with money?"
"Old Monastery Leader, it seems like Lee Hongtian really isn't here. How about we …" Shangguan Qiong panicked and quickly asked Elder in Taoist Robe for his opinion.
Elder in Taoist Robe frowned and said to Shangguan Qiong unhappily: "Shangguan Family Master, my disciple is also your son. What exactly is this Green Jade Treasure Box that you don't even care about the grudge of killing your son?"
Hehe, it's nothing, it's just an ordinary object passed down from our ancestors. But in the end, it's something passed down from our ancestors, and it can't be destroyed in my hands. The culprit who killed Yan'er is Lee Hongtian. Shangguan Qiong forced a smile and said guiltily.
Elder in Taoist Robe looked at him suspiciously, then suddenly laughed: "Well, this old man has been travelling for many years, but today I suddenly have the feeling that I will stay in the Yanjing for a while longer, so let's do it like this for today."
"Thank you, Monastery Leader." Shangguan Qiong was overjoyed.
Then, he turned to Meng Lan and yelled, "Miss Meng, we agree to your conditions. As long as you hand over the treasure box, everyone here can leave safely."
