“Everything!” Lishang answered without thinking twice. “I will give you whatever you want as long as you help me get out of this prison.”
Lishang didn’t want to be in prison anymore. He was already imprisoned by Xiao Tian for two days, but Xiao Tian’s underlings had tortured him six times.
Every time they were pissed off by something, they vented their anger by torturing him. He knew that he was their enemy, but in his view, their actions were too much.
They beat him, kicked him, whipped him, and did many other cruel things to him. From his point of view, it didn’t make sense for them to take their anger out on him when he wasn’t the one who pissed them off.
It was unfair, and he disliked it very much. However, he knew that he could not do anything about it.
Lishang didn’t dare to imagine what would happen to him if he remained in prison for more than a month. That was why he would do whatever Xiao Tian wanted as long as Xiao Tian was willing to help him get out of that hellish place.
“Anything?” Xiao Tian’s lips curled into a grin.
“Yes. Anything.” Lishang answered as he nodded his head.
At this moment, Lishang was pleased because, from Xiao Tian’s behavior, there was a high chance that Xiao Tian would help him get out of the prison.
“Brother, what are you doing?” Zhao Sheng asked, “Hurry up and find our family. Otherwise, it will be dangerous for us later.”
“Yes. We must find your family soon.” Lan Ruoxi added.
Lishang finally understood the reason why Xiao Tian and the others were in the dungeon. “Is your family also imprisoned here? I can help you look for them later. Not only that, I’m also willing to help you get revenge later because we have the same enemy.”
Lishang had no idea that the person he was talking to was none other than his enemy. He believed that they had the same enemy.
Xiao Tian then glanced at Zhao Sheng and asked, “What do you think, brother? Should we free him from jail?”
“Who are you?” Zhao Sheng inquired.
“I’m Lishang, the disciple of Ryu martial art school.” Lishang introduced himself. “You may not believe it, but I have quite important position in the Ryu martial art school because I’m one of their best disciples.”
When Zhao Sheng heard it, an evil smile appeared on his face.
‘I didn’t expect that he is from the Ryu martial arts school. This is going to be interesting.’
Zhao Sheng said in his head.
“If you dare lie to us, we will make you regret it later.” Zhao Sheng didn’t forget to threaten Lishang before they helped him get out of the prison.
“I promise.” Lishang was delighted because he would finally be able to get out of that hellish place.
Xiao Tian then opened the jail and said, “Follow us. We need to find our family first.”
“All right.” Lishang nodded his head before following them.
After looking for all the prisons, Xiao Tian uttered, “Our parents are not here. Where are they?”
“Don’t tell me…” Zhao Sheng wore a sad expression as if Xiao Tian had killed their parents.
Xiao Tian gritted his teeth and murmured, “Xiao Tian!!!”
When Lishang saw their expression, his face turned sad too. He thought Xiao Tian had killed their parents. “Don’t lose hope. We still haven’t seen their corpses, so there is still a chance that your parents are still alive.”
“He is right.” Lan Ruoxi added. “Let’s get out of here now. We can make a plan again later.”
“All right.” Xiao Tian and Zhao Sheng replied in unison.
After they got out of the dungeon, Lishang was startled when he saw ten of Xiao Tian’s underlings passed out on the ground. Their faces were full of bruises, and blood was splashed everywhere.
‘Are they the ones who did this? But why are there only ten of them? Where is the others?’
Lishang then stared at Xiao Tian and the others.
‘Did they investigate everything first before coming here? Seems like it. So, they decide to break in when there are only ten of Xiao Tian’s underlings.’
Lishang believed that Xiao Tian and the others had investigated everything first before coming to the Blue Ice Lotus gang headquarters.
When they were in the front yard, a voice suddenly rang out. “Stop right there!”
Xiao Tian and the others instantly turned their heads towards the source of the sound. When they saw twenty of Xiao Tian’s underlings, Xiao Tian immediately said, “Run!”
According to Xiao Tian’s plan, Xiao Tian’s underlings would chase Xiao Tian and the others for several minutes before returning to their base.
“Stop!” ten of Xiao Tian’s underlings blocked their path.
“What should we do? Should we keep running away, or fight them?” Lishang inquired.
However, Xiao Tian, Zhao Sheng, and Lan Ruoxi kept running towards Xiao Tian’s underlings before fighting them.
When Lishang saw them preparing to fight, he wanted to help them. To his surprise, Xiao Tian and the others could defeat Xiao Tian’s underlings instantly.
‘They are amazing!’
Lishang praised them.
‘It seems like they are martial artists at the master stage. Maybe all of them are high-level master stage.’
Because Xiao Tian and the others could defeat Xiao Tian’s underlings instantly, Lishang believed that they were martial artists at the master stage.
He had no idea that everything was only acting. Xiao Tian and the others didn’t attack them hard, and Xiao Tian’s underlings deliberately put on an expression of pain after being hit so that Lishang would think that Xiao Tian and the others hit them hard.
“Let’s go.” Xiao Tian uttered.
They continued running away, and like what they had planned, Xiao Tian’s underlings kept chasing them. After running for more than thirty minutes, Xiao Tian’s underlings pretended to lose them and returned to their base. Then Xiao Tian and the others went to their house.
———-
“Luckily, we managed to escape earlier.” Zhao Sheng spoke abruptly. Currently, they were in the guest room. “I didn’t expect them to come back earlier than we predicted.”
“Brothers, sister. Thank you for helping me.” Lishang thanked them. “I still don’t know your name. May I know your name.”
“My name is Black.” After saying that, Zhao Sheng pointed his right index finger at Xiao Tian before shifting it to Lan Ruoxi. “He is my twin brother, Ace. And she is our sister-in-law, Crystal.”
Zhao Sheng’s words much surprised Lishang.
‘Their names are not Chinese names. Are they using fake names?’
Even though Lishang thought that Xiao Tian and the others were using fake names, he didn’t ask them anything because he was sure they had a reason for it.
“How did you end up in prison?” Zhao Sheng inquired.
Even though Xiao Tian had told him everything, Zhao Sheng pretended as if he didn’t know anything.
“The name of my Shifu is Yahui and grandmaster Jufan is his friend.” Lishang gave an honest answer. “Because grandmaster Jufan has enmity with Xiao Tian, my Shifu decided to help him. My master sent me to beat Xiao Tian, but I didn’t know that Xiao Tian had many underlings. I was imprisoned for about two days but his underlings had beaten me six times. Every times they were pissed off by something, they vented their anger by beating me. They are so cruel!”
“You are right. Xiao Tian’s underlings are indeed cruel.” Zhao Sheng stated. “Not only that, but their leader is worse than them. Not only is he bad person, but he is also ugly, pervert, immature, and cruel. There are so many bad things about him until I can’t remember all of it.”
‘Fuck you, Zhao Sheng!’
Xiao Tian cursed venomously in his heart after hearing Zhao Sheng’s words. He wanted to curse Zhao Sheng, but he knew that he could not do that. Otherwise, their disguise would be exposed.
At this moment, Lan Ruoxi tried her best not to laugh. She didn’t expect that Zhao Sheng would say something like that.
‘Young master Zhao is indeed a bad person. Whenever an opportunity to badmouth Xiao Tian arose, he didn’t let it slide.’
Lan Ruoxi said in her head.
At this time, Lishang didn’t have the slightest suspicion after hearing Zhao Sheng’s words because he believed that Zhao Sheng and the others had investigated everything about Xiao Tian before. That was why Zhao Sheng knew many things about Xiao Tian.
‘It seems like they hate Xiao Tian to the bone.’
Lishang said in his head.
