Jun Yi Xie wanted Han Yunxi to walk in alone?
This was the biggest joke in the world! What did he take the men present for?
Forget about Long Fei Ye, Gu and Gu Beiyue. Even Tang Li wouldn't let Han Yunxi walk in alone!
Long Fei Ye looked at Jun Yi Xie coldly and didn't want to answer him. Gu Beiyue didn't say anything either. Ning Cheng sneered.
Gu narrowed his long and narrow eyes and said word by word, "Jun Yi Xie, you're thinking too much!"
Tang Li snorted coldly. "Jun Yi Xie, other than bullying women, what else do you dare to do?"
If Jun Yi Xie had enough hostages, he would have brought all the hostages here and let Long Fei Ye and the rest enter Tiger's Prison.
Unfortunately, he didn't!
He only had Ning Cheng!
Faced with Long Fei Ye and the rest's contempt and mockery, Jun Yi Xie could only endure.
He looked at Han Yunxi and sneered, "Han Yunxi, it looks like you don't have any sincerity in saving them!"
Not sincerity?
If she didn't have sincerity, would she and Long Fei Ye have left the two armies on the northern expedition and come here personally to take the risk?
Even when facing Ning Cheng, Han Yunxi didn't want to explain too much. At this moment, Ning Cheng was looking at her. His gaze was trusting and respectful. Jun Yi Xie's provocation was superfluous. Ning Cheng wasn't that stupid.
Who knew that Jun Yi Xie would suddenly kick Ning Cheng's knee! Ning Cheng immediately knelt down. Jun Yi Xie raised his leg high and stepped on Ning Cheng's shoulder, pressing him down forcefully. He said coldly, "Men, bring a torch!"
If it was a match, it would take some time to ignite the gunpowder, but if it was a torch, it could be ignited at any time!
Han Yunxi said angrily, "Jun Yi Xie, how dare you!"
"Do you think I wouldn't dare?!" Jun Yi Xie increased the force of his leg, and Ning Cheng's shoulder collapsed under the weight.
He seemed to be trying his best to hold on, but he clearly didn't have much strength left. He kept looking at Han Yunxi. His naturally cold brows were tightly furrowed. He kept shaking his head, telling her not to come over.
Han Yunxi knew that he had been poisoned, and it was a very complicated poison. The detoxification system had been checking him urgently, but it hadn't detected the detailed situation yet.
"Han Yunxi, are you coming in or not?" Jun Yi Xie asked again.
He pulled out a dagger from his waist with his other hand. He leaned over evilly, exerting all his strength on Ning Cheng's back. The tip of the dagger was pressed against Ning Cheng's other shoulder.
"Han Yunxi, you don't have to come in. If you kill him, this prince still has another hostage! You have plenty of time to slowly think about it! This prince, wait! "Jun Yi Xie smiled as he gently pierced Ning Cheng's clothes with the dagger.
Han Yunxi's eyes emitted a terrifying killing intent. At this moment, she wanted nothing more than to tear Jun Yi Xie into pieces.
"Gu Beiyue, how confident are you?" Long Fei Ye asked in a low voice.
"I'm not confident." Gu Beiyue answered honestly.
If it was a moment ago, perhaps he was seventy to eighty percent confident that he could snatch the hostage from Jun Yi Xie's hands. But now, Jun Yi Xie was holding a torch, not a match. Moreover, Jun Yi Xie's dagger was already pressed against Ning Cheng's shoulder.
Right now, he only had fifty percent confidence.
He didn't like to take risks, especially at a time like this. Fifty percent confidence was zero to him.
If he didn't take risks and stayed in a stalemate, he might still have a chance. If he took risks and lost, he and Ning Cheng would both be killed. Moreover, no one could predict whether the explosion of the gunpowder on Ning Cheng's body would endanger the courtyard behind them, or what kind of casualties it would cause.
How could Gu not have the same thought? The situation they were facing now was completely different from what they faced at the top of Heaven Mountain. Gunpowder didn't allow for the slightest bit of risk. Moreover, those people from Evil Sword School were afraid of death. Jun Yi Xie seemed to be prepared to die together with them!
From the moment they saw Ning Cheng being escorted over, they had been assessing the risk of saving him.
Once Gu's thorny vines sprang out from under Jun Yi Xie's feet, who knew if Jun Yi Xie would choose to die together with them?
At this moment, Jun Yi Xie's dagger suddenly pierced Ning Cheng's shoulder!
Ning Cheng silently endured it. He was still looking at Han Yunxi and shaking his head. Cold and indifferent, Han Yunxi looked on indifferently.
However, her heart was already burning with anger!
Jun Yi Xie was ruthless. He suddenly pulled out the dagger and blood splattered everywhere! Then, he stabbed it again!
Ning Cheng looked at Han Yunxi from afar, motionless. Han Yunxi was expressionless. Her eyes were unfathomable.
"Han Yunxi, haven't you thought it through? Why don't this prince change the hostage to play with? "Jun Yi Xie looked at Tang Li with interest." Is it Ning Jing or that child? "
Tang Li didn't say anything. He clenched his fists and stared at Jun Yi Xie.
They were all enduring and waiting. Perhaps Jun Yi Xie would bring out the hostages. At that time, they would have a better chance of winning.
But who knew that Jun Yi Xie suddenly changed his mind. "Forget it, forget it. Ning Cheng's life is tough!"
He pulled out the dagger and pressed it against Ning Cheng's ear. He chuckled and said, "Han Yunxi, do you want this ear, or …"
"I'll go over!" Han Yunxi finally couldn't take it anymore.
"Jun Yi Xie, you just want my life. Let go of Ning Cheng. I'll go over!" Han Yunxi said Coldly.
At her words, Ning Cheng's calm gaze suddenly turned sharp and fierce, almost ferocious. Even though he couldn't speak, anyone could tell that he was fierce to Han Yunxi. He was warning Han Yunxi.
Wasn't this woman always smart, calm, and ruthless?
Can't she tell that Jun Yixie's true target is her life? She came in to court death! Once she came in, Jun Yi Xie would definitely ignite the gunpowder. Jun Yi Xie would never let them go!
If she didn't come in, she could live, and so could he! Jun Yi Xie would never dare to leave the tiger's den!
How would Han Yunxi know that Ning Jing and the rest were no longer in Jun Yi Xie's hands? Jun Yi Xie had hostages to kill slowly! However, there was only one Ning Cheng in this world. They only had one Ning Cheng, and the Di Clan only had one Master Ning!
She had no choice but to take the risk!
"Han Yunxi, are you crazy?" Long Fei Ye's voice was terrifyingly low.
He held her hand tightly, not allowing her to take a step forward.
"Do you want to see Ning Cheng die?" Han Yunxi asked calmly.
"If you don't go in, Ning Cheng won't die," Long Fei Ye said.
"Are you a hundred percent sure?" Han Yunxi asked.
"No. I'm only fifty percent." Only fifty percent, "Long Fei Ye answered honestly.
He wasn't a hundred percent sure because Jun Yi Xie still had several hostages. Moreover, the remaining hostages, whether it was Mu Ling 'er, Ning Jing, or that child, were more of a threat to them than Ning Cheng. The possibility of Jun Yi Xie killing Ning Cheng was indeed very high.
However, Long Fei Ye still didn't want to take the risk. He said, "If you go in, it'll be even harder to save the others."
The best way was to continue the stalemate with Jun Yi Xie and let him bring all the hostages out. It would be best if they could lure him out of Tiger's Den.
Han Yunxi understood Long Fei Ye's considerations.
She said, "Long Fei Ye, why don't we take a gamble? Jun Yi Xie won't leave Tiger's Den. Since it's a risk and we're not confident, why should we sacrifice Ning Cheng? "
If they continued the stalemate, they weren't a hundred percent sure that they could see all the hostages, lure Jun Yi Xie out, and protect Ning Cheng. If they went in, they weren't confident that they could save everyone and escape unscathed.
Actually, both choices were risky. Why would they choose the stalemate? Why would they choose to watch Ning Cheng get tortured and even the other hostages get tortured?
Long Fei Ye was silent, but he still didn't let go.
Gu Beiyue, Gu, and Tang Li were very quiet. This choice was too big. It concerned everyone's life and death. Even Tang Li didn't dare to act rashly.
Han Yunxi whispered again, "Everyone, if we act immediately after entering, will we have a higher chance of success?"
They were still two to three meters away from Tiger's Den. If they entered the courtyard, would they have a higher chance of success?
"I'm still not a hundred percent sure. At most, I'm seventy percent sure." Gu Beiyue had already considered this problem.
"I'm seventy percent sure too," Gu answered.
"Long Fei Ye, what do you think?" Han Yunxi's face was cold and stern as she asked in a low voice.
Long Fei Ye didn't answer Han Yunxi's question. He said directly, "Gu Beiyue, I'll leave Ning Cheng to you. Tang Li and Gu, go save the others. Jun Yi Xie … leave him to us! "
After he finished speaking, he didn't let Han Yunxi walk by herself. Instead, he held her hand and walked forward. Gu Beiyue and the other two immediately followed.
Ning Cheng didn't expect Long Fei Ye to not stop Han Yunxi and come over personally. He immediately glared at Long Fei Ye. His gaze was full of warning.
But who knew that Long Fei Ye would let him glare at him and remain indifferent!
At this moment, Ning Cheng was unable to restrain his anger. How could Long Fei Ye do this! How could he bring Han Yunxi here to die? How could he bring everyone here to die?
Ning Cheng began to struggle. He really wanted to tell them the truth. He wanted to tell them that Jun Yi Xie only had one bargaining chip!
But no matter how much strength he used, he couldn't move. Jun Yi Xie had him firmly restrained.
Jun Yi Xie looked coldly at Han Yunxi and the other four people approaching step by step. His lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile.
This was the result he wanted! It couldn't be any better if all of them came over!
Jun Yi Xie felt all the blood in his body boil as he tightened his grip on the torch and made his final preparations! As soon as Han Yunxi and the rest crossed the threshold, he would ignite the gunpowder on Ning Cheng's body. His subordinates would also detonate the gunpowder hidden around Tiger's Prison.
Who cared about the ups and downs of Cloud Realm Continent? Today, he, Jun Yi Xie, would bury the two masters of Eastern and Western Qin with him! He had no glory in life, but in death, his name would be recorded in the annals of history for all eternity!
The torch in Jun Yi Xie's hand burned brightly. The guards hidden around them all blew on their torches and placed the flames near the fuse of the gunpowder. Everything was ready.
Han Yunxi and the rest advanced step by step until they were very, very close to the gates of Tiger's Prison.
Ten more steps and they'd be there.
Jun Yi Xie's smile grew wider and wider while Ning Cheng's eyes grew more and more despaired.
Jun Yi Xie stared at Han Yunxi's footsteps as he silently counted down. "Ten, nine, eight …"
Suddenly …
