I asked in astonishment, “An opportunity?”

My Big Brother crossed his arms in front of his chest. “If you choose to save her, then you’ll have to chop off one of your hands. But if you choose not to save her, then I can choose not to chop off your hand and still only chop off one of her fingers. “Which option is more cost-effective? You Don’t need me to teach you. You should understand, right?”

I was momentarily stunned.

‘this fellow, what is he up to??

Xia Qingrou cried out in shock, “Zhang Lu, don’t try to be brave! I can handle a broken finger!”

I looked at the other party and noticed the hidden smile in his eyes. My heart suddenly moved.

‘this fellow isn’t trying to give me a chance!!

‘He’s deliberately toying with me. He wants to see me cower and see that I’ve ultimately chosen to act selfishly!!

If that was the case, even if I chose not to save teacher Xia, he might not really let me off.

Thinking of this, I decisively said, “I choose to save her!”

In an instant, the surroundings became completely quiet again.

A moment later, Yang Gang, who was a few steps away, whispered, “This kid, is his brain damaged?”

Xia Qingrou, who was on the ground, had already started crying. “Zhang Lu, why are you so stupid…”

The expression on the big brother’s face turned from stiff to furious as he shouted, “Good lad, are you trying to act tough? I’ll Grant Your Wish! Knife!”

The person beside him immediately handed the watermelon knife over to him.

The Big Brother took the watermelon knife with his left hand. He extended his right hand and grabbed my right hand, straightening it.

I almost held my breath as my entire body tensed up.

This is my chance!

The other party will definitely not be particularly careful in his fury!

My Big Brother raised his left hand high up. The watermelon knife’s cold glare was terrifying. It was about to slash down on my wrist!

“No!”Xia Qingrou’s mournful scream sounded.

At this moment, I suddenly took a wrong step and used the footwork technique that beggar taught me. I pulled my hand out and flashed behind my big brother!

My brother was shocked and turned around.

I took advantage of the moment when he was still turning his head and was unable to defend himself, I suddenly punched his nose!

My brother cried out in pain and covered his nose with his right hand.

I grabbed his left hand and grabbed the watermelon knife in his hand with the fastest speed possible!

The entire process only lasted for one or two seconds. The others didn’t expect that I would actually have the ability to counterattack. Only then did they finally come back to their senses and all of them screamed as they pounced towards me!

I raised my blade horizontally and placed it on my big brother’s neck. I shouted wildly, “Whoever dares to come over, I’ll kill him!”

The few people who pounced over all stopped in their tracks.

The Big Brother covered his nose and growled, “Good Lad! You’re good!”He suddenly retreated and actually directly collided with me who was standing behind him!

I never expected that he would actually dare to directly counterattack after being threatened by my blade. I was momentarily unprepared and was knocked back a few steps.

With a ‘shua’, the blade of the knife cut across my big brother’s face, leaving a shallow bloody scar.

My Big Brother took the opportunity to take three to four steps back and shouted angrily, “F*ck you! How dare you mess with me! Chop him up for me!”

My shock was no small matter. The other party had so many people rushing over. I would definitely be finished!

At this moment, I suddenly realized that the woman who hadn’t said a word was just a step away from me on my left. In a moment of desperation, I placed the watermelon knife horizontally and placed it under her pink neck.

Everyone who was about to rush over suddenly stopped.

I secretly heaved a sigh of relief. I approached the young woman and shouted, “If you don’t move, I won’t Hurt You!”

The young woman turned her head to look at me. There was a strange expression in her eyes. She didn’t speak nor did she move.

The Big Brother opposite me shouted in both shock and anger, “Let Her Go!”

I was originally worried that this bargaining chip wasn’t enough, but seeing their reaction, it was obvious that they were very afraid. I couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.

This young woman was most likely the Big Brother’s woman. With her around, it seemed that there was still room for negotiation!

“I don’t want to hurt anyone!”I tried my best to remain calm. “But if someone wants to force me, then I don’t mind spilling my blood!”

In the past, I definitely wouldn’t have said such harsh words.

But ever since I accepted the job offered by Lin Xiaoya, I had been thinking about how to suppress my opponent in terms of imposing manner every day. These words were nothing to me now.

“Good boy, you still dare to threaten me!”Big Brother took a watermelon knife from another companion’s hand and pointed it at me, “Let her go if you have the guts. I’ll fight you one-on-one. If I don’t Chop You into seventy to eighty pieces, I’ll f*cking take your surname!”

“Being unable to rage won’t help the current situation at all.”I tried my best to remain calm. “Since you’re their Big Brother, you should act like one and prove that you have a way to protect your own people!”

The veins on my big brother’s forehead bulged. He gritted his teeth but was unable to speak.

“As long as you let us leave, I’ll Let Her Go! However, if you insist on hurting us, then we’ll perish together!”I said slowly, “I can guarantee that before I die, I’ll definitely drag someone down with me! If I drag one, I’ll be able to make a profit; if I drag two, I’ll be able to make a profit!”

The surroundings were completely silent.

The few people on the other side looked at each other. The students in the cave all held their breaths and didn’t dare to make a sound.

I nervously looked at the other party. The sweat on my palms had drenched the handle of the knife.

In reality, only I knew that even if the other party didn’t agree, I wouldn’t dare to kill anyone.

Now, I only hoped that the other party was loyal enough and wouldn’t act recklessly for the sake of this woman!

After a long while, the Big Brother finally cursed. His hand that was holding the knife hung down. “You’re ruthless! But you want to exchange one person for so many of you? You’re Dreaming! At most, I can let you leave. No one else is allowed to leave!”

This fellow actually gave me such a move!

Xia Qingrou, who was on the ground, shouted, “Zhang Lu, leave! Don’t bother about us!”

Yang Gang’s expression changed. “How can we do that! If he wants to leave, these guys will take it out on us! No Way! If we want to exchange people, we have to exchange them for me!”

I really detested this fellow to the extreme and coldly said, “Answer me this question: Is she more important than us strangers?”

The big brother said impatiently, “Nonsense! Of course she’s more important!”

I grabbed the back of the young woman’s neck with my left hand, the watermelon knife in my right hand moved a little closer to her pink neck. “Then what makes you think that her life can only be exchanged for the life of one of us? It’s your words that aren’t true, but in your heart, isn’t she that important?”

Big Brother’s expression changed drastically. He angrily said, “Don’t You F*cking spout nonsense! In My Heart, no one is more important than her!”

I loudly shouted, “Then that’s enough! Using the most important person in your heart to exchange for all of our lives, there’s no second choice!”

Big Brother Glared at me. His chest rose and fell rapidly. His breathing was so heavy that he could clearly hear me from a few meters away.

Time passed slowly. I didn’t dare to Blink for fear that he would see that I was bluffing him.

After at least a minute, my big brother finally gritted his teeth and shouted, “Let them go!”
