The leader’s gaze sharpened.
Young Master Tan turned around immediately and looked at him.
He also had the Tan family’s poison medical books and the various poisons he had developed over the years with him. How could they demand them too?!
He smiled sarcastically and gritted his teeth.
“You have a big appetite, don’t you? Aren’t you afraid that the Tan family will come and fight you to the death?”
“Why would they?” the man asked, amused. “Isn’t the unfilial descendant of the Tan family offering these to us? We’re too embarrassed to reject them, right?”
Young Master Tan nearly vomited and died.
Offering these to them? How can he have the audacity to say that? Would I willingly hand these to them if they didn’t surround me and threaten to kill me?
Although he was extremely unwilling to comply, he had no choice. He had to hand them over to leave as soon as possible.
He threw everything he had on the ground before looking up at the man. However…
The instant he looked up, his vision went black. He was knocked out before he could even react.
“Boss, why did you knock him out?”
A few subordinates approached the leader from behind and asked in confusion.
If they had known that the leader would knock Young Master Tan out, they could have just attacked him. Why was their leader wasting his breath on him?
“It’s not easy to track someone who uses Li Kingdom’s escape technique,” the leader said, glancing coldly at his subordinate.
“Huh?” His subordinates were confused. “Boss, didn’t you… learn the escape technique too?”
They had heard him say it. They had no idea when he went to Li Kingdom and learned the escape technique, but it sounded true.
The leader pursed his thin lips and retorted, “Do you believe everything I say?”
He was only joking. Young Master Tan would have escaped if he had not tricked him calmly.
They could track him down the first time because Young Master Tan was accompanied by several trusted aides who did not execute the escape technique properly. But now that he was alone, it would be easier for him to escape.
Even the leader was not confident in capturing Young Master Tan if he used the escape technique.
“What?” His subordinates were shocked. “Boss, you were tricking him?”
“Can’t I?” the leader asked them again.
Fortunately, Young Master Tan believed him easily because he was already panicked after he was surrounded.
“Sure, of course.” His subordinates nodded. Their leader was awesome!
“What should we do with him? Kill him?”
“No.” The leader shook his head.
He wanted to kill this guy, but he was a member of the Tan family. Killing him would be a pity.
“He’s a member of the Tan family after all. It’ll be bad if he dies.”
A subordinate suggested, “Shall we bring them back for Elder Huang to deal with?”
“Mhm.” The leader nodded.
The group packed everything on the ground, carried Young Master Tan, and left.
A few days later, curses could be heard from a tent in the military camp from time to time. The soldiers outside wanted to charge in and beat up the person inside.
A soldier was furious and wanted to enter, but two soldiers grabbed his arm to stop him.
“Forget it. What’s there to argue about with a half-dead person?”
