Hong Yuan and his group had all made their preparations.
Tonight, they would torment Xia Bingqing.
Seven people, standing separately, hid themselves in the darkness.
Awaiting the main target.
Hong Yuan took a chair and sat down in front of Xia Taishan.
At this moment, Xia Taishan's eyes were red, his face contorted with ferocity, and he roared again in anger, "Who exactly are you people? What do you intend to do?"
"If you are after Xia Bingqing, then come at me directly!"
"Do not harm my granddaughter!"
"Otherwise, even as a ghost, I will not let you go!"
Hearing this, Hong Yuan sneered, "Old man, you don't actually think you still have a chance, do you!"
He raised his hand and sent the whip in his grasp forward. With a crack, it struck the iron cage.
Because the gaps were quite large, the whip was unimpeded and lashed onto Xia Taishan.
The whip had barbs, so it directly scratched Xia Taishan.
The pain caused his expression to instantly twist.
His body trembled violently. "You... what exactly do you want to do? Tell me!"
Hong Yuan raised his hand and whipped him again. "I really don't like the tone you're using, understand?"
Crack!
Followed by two more strikes, the pain made him cry out in agony.
After all, Xia Taishan was getting on in years and couldn't endure such torment. All he felt now was rage, gritting his teeth, "Scoundrel..."
Hong Yuan sneered, "We have only one purpose today, and that is to kill your granddaughter!"
"What do you think about that!"
Xia Taishan became agitated. "Why? How could my granddaughter offend people like you? You cannot harm her!"
"If you have a problem, come at me!!!"
"I... I can give you money, let her go, okay?"
Hong Yuan followed up by saying, "Then beg me!"
Xia Taishan twisted his body, then knelt in the iron cage and kowtowed vigorously.
Bang, bang, bang...
Completely losing the demeanor of the Xia family patriarch, his face contorted.
"I kowtow to you!"
"Do not harm my granddaughter, please!"
Hong Yuan looked at Xia Taishan now and sneered, "To think this is still the head of the Xia family, it's truly laughable!"
"Heh heh!"
"What if I say no?"
Xia Taishan understood at this moment that he had been played. Thinking of this, he couldn't contain his anger and roared through gritted teeth, "Ahhh... you scoundrel, you actually tricked me, I'm going to kill you!"
"You bastard!"
"Ahhh..."
Hong Yuan narrowed his eyes, his expression extremely playful. "Old man, you are simply ignorant, unaware of the immensity of heaven and earth!"
"Heh heh..."
A while later, Xia Bingqing and Chen Fan arrived.
They came to the reservoir.
They saw Hong Yuan on the chair, alone...
