Chapter 743: Hand him over (Part One)
Old Master Ye paced back and forth and said, “We don’t regret it, because we have a strong nation to support us now, and we feel proud of our actions. If we were given another chance, we would have no intention to change history, those who should be killed must be killed.”
“What a good one: those who should be killed must be killed!” Azure Dragon’s eerie voice came from above. “I thought that after so many years, you would feel remorse for what you have done, but I didn’t expect it to get even worse. Do you know why only the five of you from the H Family have survived to this day?”
The five old masters did not answer as they did not understand.
Azure Dragon continued: “We remember the members of the H Family clearly. Even if you were burned to charcoal, we would still recognize who you are. However, if it was the three of us, if there was no paper, no uniforms, and if we didn’t appear in this place, I’m afraid that you simply would not recognize us at all. That’s because in your eyes, we are just failures of history. But I want to tell you that if you didn’t have this country behind you, we would have killed you a long time ago! Wasn’t it strange that whenever a member of the H Family left the country to go abroad in the past decades, that they would just die out there?”
Old Master Ye: “Of course it’s strange, that’s why Little Joker from Dragon Division was investigating this matter.”
Azure Dragon suddenly floated down from the steps of the main hall.
He came up to Old Master Ye and looked at him face to face coldly, asking word for word, “So was the investigation useful? With the strength we had in the past, wanting to set foot here when the Dragon Division wasn’t well established would have been easy as pie. We couldn’t destroy your national dreams, but you think we couldn’t assassinate the five of you? You think only you guys have a great righteous agenda for the country and we don’t? We did not kill you because we knew you guys had a responsibility in this country!”
Having said that, he turned his back on the five old Masters and said, “As you can see, the reason why we called you here is because we have a condition.”
Old Master Guo raised his head. “Say it.”
“This condition is very simple for you guys, and that is to hand over Xu Cheng!” Azure Dragon said.
Outside the palace, all forty-eight cards of the Dragon Division were on standby.
One more person had arrived.
Xu Cheng!
When the three of them asked them to hand him over, Xu Cheng remained still and looked at the expression of the five old Masters.
“I don’t know what you are talking about,” Old Master Ye said.
“Stop pretending.” Azure Dragon said, “He’s definitely not dead, but our brother died and he was killed by him. We admit that you’ve governed this country well and you proved yourselves right, so for the sake of the country, we won’t talk about the past. However, regarding this man, you must hand him over!”
“He’s dead, how could we hand him over?” Old Master Ye said angrily, “Didn’t he die because of you all?”
Azure Dragon suddenly turned around and appeared in front of Old Master Ye, who was not slow to react and tried to dodge. However, his SS strength was not a match for the R rank strength of Azure Dragon; he simply grabbed Old Master Ye!
“Don’t treat us like three-year-old kids. If he died, then there is no way we couldn’t find his body. So this kid must still be alive! Where did he put the body of our brother, Ge Lie? You don’t have to hand him over, because I have ways to find out where he is. “
Azure Dragon grimaced and yelled at the surroundings, “Garbage Dragon Division, how long do you plan to peep? Are you waiting for me to kill him before you actually come out? Do you think I don’t dare to kill him?”
There was a clatter.
The entire Dragon Division entered through the main door and from the window in the ceiling.
All of them surrounded and blocked all the exits.
Little Joker walked into the hall and demanded. “Let go of him!”
Azure Dragon pushed Old Master Ye in the direction of his two brothers behind him; he was not their hostage.
Azure Dragon smiled faintly. “Hand over Xu Cheng!”
Old Master Zhou said in a deep voice. “I told you Xu Cheng is already dead. Do you want us to show you his grave?”
“Shut up, I don’t want to hear from the five of you.” Azure Dragon smiled fiercely and looked at Little Joker as he said, “You speak. Are you willing to hand over Xu Cheng? As long as you hand him over, I promise you that these old men will be fine. But if you refuse, then sorry, I’ll have to direct my hatred for Xu Cheng on to Ye!”
“Don’t mess around!” Little Joker shouted.
Old Master Ye yelled at Little Joker, “You’re the one who shouldn’t mess around! Listen, Dao Yuan, even if they want us to hand over you today, we won’t agree! You must remember what you are doing. The country had promised him that this was his home! No great nation has ever handed over one of its citizens! Never!”
Little Joker’s expression was complicated as he had no choice!
On one side was Xu Cheng, and on the other, it was the five Chiefs!
All of them were highly respected elders!
As the leader of the Dragon Division, Little Joker couldn’t let anything happen to these five elders! From his standpoint, if he could only choose one side, he would have to protect the five Chiefs! That was the fundamental duty of the Dragon Division!
However, Old Master Ye’s words put Little Joker into a dilemma.
Azure Dragon turned to the old man and punched him in the stomach, causing Old Master Ye to spit out a mouthful of blood.
“You don’t care, right? You’ve killed all the people back then and now you’re pretending to bew kind?” Azure Dragon sneered and looked at Little Joker even more aggressively.
“If you don’t hand Xu Cheng over, then Ye will die! We don’t expect to leave here alive today anyways, so either we get revenge on the H Family for what happened in the past or we avenge our brother Ge Lie’s death! You choose one!” Azure Dragon said smiling faintly.
Little Joker really had no choice, on one side was the safety of his leaders, and on the other side was their orders.
He looked in the direction of where Xu Cheng was hiding, and his gaze was sending a message that he must come out and step up.
A dozen seconds later, Xu Cheng appeared at the gate with his shadow dragging on the floor from the sunset.
He stood there, wearing a mask.
The golden clown’s mask and his robe representing the Ace of the Dragon Division swayed with the wind at the gate.
“Ge Lie is indeed dead, killed by me, and his corpse was destroyed by me as well. If you have anything, come at me. If I let you leave the country alive today, then it would be a dereliction of duty on the part of the Dragon Division and I, the Ace of Dragon Division! You have seriously provoked and breached the laws of Huaxia, so you must die here today! Even if I break my bones, I will make you stay here!”
Old Master Ye spat out a mouthful of blood and scolded, “You little b—–d, if you were pretending to be dead, then why come out today? We promised you before that the country would be your last resort!”
Xu Cheng smiled faintly. “Master once told me that if I guard this country, the country will shelter me and give me strength as well. I now fully understand the power of a nation when we support one another.”
