The next mont, just as Ye Xunhuan was about to say sothing, King, as if having thought of sothing, spoke again before Ye Xunhuan could open his mouth: "But I think you should first et an old friend!"
Saying this, King didn't wait for Ye Xunhuan to speak and imdiately said, "Co out, my friend!"
As soon as King finished speaking, a middle-aged man erged from sowhere on the freighter.
Upon seeing this middle-aged man, Ye Xunhuan's expression sharpened: "Xie Mingjiang!"
This middle-aged man was indeed Xie Mingjiang. He and King had already collaborated, and now King had captured everyone close to Ye Xunhuan and brought them onto this ship. In other words, King had found Ye Xunhuan's weakness; Ye had to let them have their way, at least for now, as Xie Mingjiang perceived it.
"Ye Xunhuan, you didn't expect we'd et again so soon, did you?" Xie Mingjiang said, looking at Ye Xunhuan with a face full of malice.
Last ti at the banquet, Ye Xunhuan had caused him and his Xie family to lose face, his daughter Xie Xuenan was humiliated, and he could only watch as it all happened, unable to resist.
Now, seeing Ye Xunhuan again, Xie Mingjiang was utterly furious, feeling so enraged that he almost wanted to devour Ye Xunhuan's flesh and blood!
"Indeed, I didn't expect it!" Ye Xunhuan said calmly, "Looks like you ca well-prepared today!"
King chuckled softly, then said slowly, "Marshal, my aim is simple: all I want is the Tai Chi Seal. As for the grudges between you two, you can settle them slowly!"
King slowly focused his gaze on Xie Mingjiang: "Mr. Xie, I'm watching your performance!"
With that, King stepped aside.
Upon seeing this, Xie Mingjiang imdiately said to Ye Xunhuan, "Ye Xunhuan, are you longing to see your won now?"
"No worries, I'll fulfill your wish and have them all brought out!"
As soon as he finished, Xie Mingjiang clapped his hands lightly, and Qiu Ruoxi and the others were brought out.
Qiu Ruoxi and the others were all restrained, with knives held against their necks, as if any movent from Ye Xunhuan would result in them being beheaded right there and then!
And Wang Zilin was among them.
Upon seeing this, Ye Xunhuan's expression turned incredibly grim.
Though skilled, he couldn't possibly save everyone at once, and besides, King wouldn't give Ye Xunhuan any chance!
Qiu Ruoxi and the others, upon seeing Ye Xunhuan, all had a change in their expressions.
"What do you want?" Ye Xunhuan asked coldly.
"Which one do you want to live?" Xie Mingjiang asked flatly.
"You..."
"Ye Xunhuan, you gave three choices back then, today I'll give you three choices!" Xie Mingjiang interrupted him imdiately!
"Speak!"
"First, the way you treated my daughter before, I will treat these people the sa way. I'll start with Wang Zilin, Dongfang Shu, and Chu Ji!" Xie Mingjiang said casually, "That way, I won't harm the lives of the other won!"
"Second, you kill that i by your side, and I won't make things difficult for the others. Or, you can choose between Su Guyan and Qiu Ruoxi, decide who lives!"
Ye Xunhuan's face imdiately turned unspeakably grim. The choices Xie Mingjiang gave him were no choices at all, because no matter what Ye Xunhuan chose, he would end up regretting it!
"And the third?"
"You check among these won, two stabs for each woman, and stab yourself with them, just like Qiao Feng of the Eight Trigrams sect to save his n!" A thick malicious look slowly erged on Xie Mingjiang's face!
Upon hearing Xie Mingjiang's last option, Qiu Ruoxi and the others' faces all changed dramatically.
Xie Mingjiang clearly intended for Ye Xunhuan to die with no burial place!
And he wanted Ye to take his own life right in front of them!
For a mont, when Qiu Ruoxi and the others looked at Ye Xunhuan, their eyes were filled with intense anxiety and worry.
"Alright, make your choice!"
King looked at Ye Xunhuan with a beaming smile, clearly believing Xie Mingjiang to be even more ruthless than himself. At least he couldn't have co up with these three choices.
But he had to admit that he was quite satisfied with the three choices Xie Mingjiang gave Ye Xunhuan!
At least for the mont, King was very pleased!
Ye Xunhuan didn't speak right away. Instead, he swept his gaze over Qiu Ruoxi and the others before fixing it on Xie Mingjiang: "Will you keep your word?"
Before Xie Mingjiang could respond, King said, "Marshal, I assure you, once you choose, they won't be in any danger, but you must give the Tai Chi Seal!"
"Surely you believe !"
"I believe you!"
It's not that Ye Xunhuan wanted to believe King, but he simply had no other choice.
"Which one do you choose?" King asked indifferently.
"The third one!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan's choice, a broad smile imdiately spread across King's face, as if he had already predicted Ye Xunhuan would choose the third option!
"Prepare the knife for the Marshal!"
The next mont, soone tossed a dagger towards Ye Xunhuan, and within an instant, gleaming blades shone at Ye Xunhuan's feet!
"Xunhuan, no, don't!" i Hanqing quickly said.
At the sa ti, Qiu Ruoxi frantically shouted, "Xunhuan, you can't, you mustn't do this, they won't keep their word..."
"Xunhuan, don't worry about us, kill them..."
Staring at the won just within reach, a faint smile slowly appeared on Ye Xunhuan's face, yet the smile seed lonely, carrying the air of a hero eting his end!
"Honey, how could I bear to see you get hurt?" Ye Xunhuan said softly, "Gu Yan, how could I bear to see you suffer in front of ?"
Saying this, Ye Xunhuan once again focused his gaze on Qiu Ruoxi, "Honey, I know you don't like them, you think their presence destroys our marital relationship!"
"I also know that the six-month promise you gave was your way to make restrain myself. If you really wanted to deal with them, you would have already acted, you wouldn't have given a six-month promise!"
Ye Xunhuan took a deep breath. As his hands suddenly stretched downwards, the blades on the ground began to tremble, and then, as if pulled by an invisible force, two blades directly landed in Ye Xunhuan's hands!
Grasping the blades, Ye Xunhuan imdiately shouted, "This is for my wife!"
In the next mont, Ye Xunhuan raised his hand and stabbed the blade into his own chest!
"Pssch!"
"Pssch!"
The sharp blades pierced directly through Ye Xunhuan's body, and bright red blood imdiately gushed forth, staining his clothes crimson!
