The person in black glared fiercely at Xie Yunjin and turned around to go back up the mountain.

The people on the mountain received the report from the black-clad person and realized they had no way to deal with Xie Yunjin. They were ordered to kill him, but if he didn’t come up the mountain, they couldn’t touch him. Killing his son would only invite his furious revenge.

After much discussion, they decided to bring the Second Born and Han Nanfeng down the mountain. However, they didn’t descend directly. Instead, they approached the location where Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao were. The leading black-clad person ordered the Second Born to shout toward the foot of the mountain.

The Second Born had been well-behaved for the past three days. He did not cry or make a fuss, which spared him a lot of suffering. The captors found him obedient and sympathetic due to his young age, so they provided him with food and water, not subjecting him to much hards.h.i.+p.

Han Nanfeng, being younger, cried a lot, but the Second Born was able to soothe him. Eventually, the two little ones stayed quietly in the house on the mountain.

At one point, the Second Born tried to escape with Han Nanfeng, but the house they were kept in was guarded outside, and there was nothing inside, not even a chair. They couldn’t even reach the windows, so escape was impossible.

Three days had been the Second Born’s limit, and when he heard the black-clad person say that his parents were at the foot of the mountain, he didn’t think about the person’s intentions. Even if he did think, he couldn’t understand.

Unable to hold back any longer, he burst into tears, crying out loudly towards the foot of the mountain, “Daddy, mommy!”

Han Nanfeng, seeing him cry, also started wailing and joined in calling for their parents.

Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao were at the foot of the mountain and vaguely heard the Second Born’s cries. After careful listening, they quickly confirmed that the Second Born and Han Nanfeng were indeed up the mountain.

It seemed that the people behind this had set everything up on the mountain, so they were acting with confidence.

On the mountain, the leading person in black used internal force to shout towards Xie Yunjin at the foot of the mountain, “Xie Yunjin, if you don’t want your son to die, come up the mountain alone immediately.”

There were powerful martial artists among the Xie household and that person had already injured a dozen of them with a single move. That’s why the opposing side was cautious of Xie Yunjin’s subordinates and insisted on having him go up the mountain alone.

Upon hearing the other side’s shout, Xie Yunjin turned to look at Lu Jiao and said, “You stay at the foot of the mountain, don’t come up.”

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Li Nantian and said, “You stay at the foot of the mountain and protect my wife. Zhou Shaogong, quietly follow me up the mountain later and see if you can do your best to protect me.”

Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong exchanged glances but hadn’t had a chance to speak yet when Lu Jiao spoke up, “I’ll go up the mountain with you.”

The mountain was clearly heavily guarded, and those people were determined to kill Xie Yunjin. It would be difficult for Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong to save him at close range, so this time, it had to be her.

After Lu Jiao finished speaking, she looked at Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong and said, “When we go up the mountain later, you two quickly hide and try to intervene if possible.”

If Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong successfully saved them, she wouldn’t have to risk revealing her spatial abilities to save them. But she couldn’t let Xie Yunjin go up the mountain alone.

However, Xie Yunjin didn’t want Lu Jiao to accompany him up the mountain and take risks. He wanted to say more.

However, Lu Jiao had already turned around and started walking towards the mountain. As she walked, she shouted towards the mountain, “I am Xie Yunjin’s wife. I will accompany him up the mountain. We, as a couple, live and die together. Can we die together?”

The people in black on the mountain heard Lu Jiao’s words and quickly glanced at each other. One of them said, “We have investigated. Xie Yunjin’s wife is strong, but she doesn’t have any martial arts skills. She’s just an ordinary woman. Maybe she wants to accompany her husband up the mountain.”

After the person finished speaking, the leader of the people in black sneered,

“Stupid woman! At this time, she still only cares about love. Truly foolish.”

They knew they had to kill Xie Yunjin tonight. If he died and she died too, what would happen to their four children?

However, the people in black didn’t care about that. The leader ordered the people around him to shout towards the foot of the mountain, asking Xie Yunjin and his wife to come up the mountain together. But no one else was allowed to follow them. If anyone followed, they would kill their son.

After the leader of the people in black finished speaking, he quickly commanded his two subordinates, “You two go down and keep an eye on their servants.”

The two people in black quickly dashed towards the foot of the mountain, while another person shouted towards the bottom of the mountain, “Since you as a couple want to go up the mountain together, then come together.”

At the foot of the mountain, Xie Yunjin was deeply moved by Lu Jiao’s words about living and dying together. But by this time, the people on the mountain had already shouted towards the bottom of the mountain, and Xie Yunjin couldn’t stop them.

He hurriedly caught up to Lu Jiao and asked, “Lu Jiao, why do you insist on coming up the mountain with me?”

In the dark night, the man’s eyes sparkled like stars in the sky. Xie Yunjin really wanted to ask a question.

Lu Jiao, do you feel differently about me too?

But Lu Jiao didn’t respond to his words. She glanced at him, hinting at something without explicitly mentioning her spatial abilities.

“I have a way to save you, so don’t worry. None of us will die tonight.”

Xie Yunjin squinted his clear and profound eyes, staring at Lu Jiao. He knew she was a capable person, even though she didn’t have any martial arts skills. He wondered how she would resolve the situation tonight.

Lu Jiao didn’t say anything more. They quickened their pace and continued walking up the mountain but stopped at a distance from the people in black.

Xie Yunjin shouted to the black-clad individuals on the other side, “Release the two children, and we will come over.”

The people in black sneered as they looked at the two men and one woman on the opposite side. They found them incredibly foolish. They had already come up the mountain, yet they were still bargaining. But they knew that the two of them were doomed to die later.

As for the two children, the leader of the people in black glanced at them. The orders from above were to kill them as well, but these two little ones had been well-behaved and obedient for the past three days, reminding the people in black of their own grandchildren. They felt a bit reluctant.

After thinking for a moment, the leader of the people in black waved his hand to agree to release them. Whether they would live or die would depend on the children’s fate.

“Fine, we will release them. You come over immediately..”
