Jimmy snorted coldly and said disdainfully:
"You'll only get paid after you succeed. You haven't accomplished anything yet, so where will you get the money?"
He then threatened, "You should know my identity and background. This money isn't something you can just get easily."
Upon hearing this, Huang Tielin's heart began to pound.
Indeed, Jimmy represents a powerful American force, and his company is large and powerful.
If he really offended them, he probably wouldn't have a good outcome. However, he was penniless at the moment, and if he had to resort to robbery to scrape together the fare for his escape, that would be too pathetic.
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and shouted:
"Fine! I guess I'll give you face this time. But you have to give me at least half the money so I can find a safe place to lay low."
"you……"
Jimmy's eyes widened, and he asked in astonishment:
"Where are you going? What am I going to do if you just leave like this?"
As he spoke, he gripped the other person's sleeve tightly, his face showing fear and unease.
"Hmph! They probably won't know it was you. So, hurry up and give me the money so I can find a place to lay low for a while."
The man urged Jimmy on anxiously, glancing back every now and then, as if worried that someone might catch up.
Although Jimmy was very unwilling, he knew that he absolutely could not get into a conflict with these powerful martial artists.
So, he nodded helplessly and said:
"Okay, you stay here and wait quietly, and don't run around."
After saying that, Jimmy hurriedly went upstairs to get the money.
Just then, the apprentice, who had been acting as the driver, quietly walked up to his master Huang Tielin and whispered a few words in his ear.
Huang Tielin's face instantly darkened, and he asked incredulously, "Really?"
The apprentice nodded solemnly, indicating that what he said was true.
Upon hearing this news, a ruthless glint flashed in Huang Tielin's eyes, and he said coldly:
"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly extended his right index finger and pointed it at Selby Morrison, who was standing to the side, with lightning speed.
Chapter 546 Let’s Go Back
Poor Sally Morrison had no time to react; she felt a powerful force strike her, and her body involuntarily tilted to one side.
Immediately afterwards, everything went black, and she fell heavily onto the soft carpet like a kite with a broken string, fainting on the spot.
Huang Tielin remained calm, then swiftly waved his right hand. Behind him followed his young and agile apprentice, the two moving with the agility of cats as they quickly ascended the stairs. In the blink of an eye, they arrived outside the study.
Huang Tielin carefully extended his finger and gently turned the doorknob, his movements as gentle as a breeze across a lake, afraid of making a sound that might wake Jimmy, who was busy taking money out of the safe inside.
As the door slowly opened, Huang Tielin immediately saw stacks of brand-new US dollars inside the safe, piled up like a mountain, radiating an alluring glow.
His eyes lit up instantly, and a surge of joy welled up inside him.
Unable to contain his excitement, Huang Tielin pushed open the door without hesitation and strode straight into the room.
However, this sudden action startled Jimmy, who was focused on withdrawing money.
Jimmy shuddered, as if struck by lightning, and abruptly stood up straight. In a panic, he raised his pistol, the dark muzzle pointing directly at Huang Tielin, and roared:
"Who let you up here?"
Faced with Jimmy's threat, Huang Tielin's lips curled into a slight sneer, and he said disdainfully:
"Hmph! You think you can scare me with just a small pistol?"
Before he finished speaking, Huang Tielin suddenly exerted force with his feet, lightly touching the ground with his toes, and his whole body shot out like an arrow.
In an instant, Huang Tielin had already closed in on Jimmy.
Before Jimmy could react, Huang Tielin moved with lightning speed, snatching the pistol from Jimmy's hand with deadly accuracy.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, he casually tossed the pistol behind him. The pistol arced through the air and landed steadily in the hands of his apprentice who rushed in right behind him.
Jimmy was completely stunned. His mind went blank, and he could only watch helplessly as everything unfolded before his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, he saw Huang Tielin raise his right foot, as if to kick.
In an instant, a powerful force surged forth, and Jimmy felt as if he had become a light, floating kite, his entire body involuntarily rising into the air.
Huang Tielin was only interested in making money and did not want to cause any deaths, so he did not use his full strength.
Nevertheless, the force of that kick was enough to knock Jimmy unconscious on the spot.
Then, He Yuzhu and his apprentice worked together seamlessly to carefully place the stacks of brand-new US dollars and important property deeds from the safe into a handbag.
The apprentice, beaming with joy, excitedly said:
"Master, we've really struck it rich this time! Look at all this cash, it's definitely over half a million US dollars!"
He Yuzhu nodded cautiously, his eyes quickly scanning the surroundings. After confirming that the cunning old man was still inside the luxurious villa, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, if this old fox gets away, it won't be so easy to catch him again, and it will definitely cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Immediately afterwards, He Yuzhu led Du Guanghe to land silently on the roof of the villa like ghosts.
Their movements were light and nimble, attracting no attention from anyone else. They then moved slowly along the rooftop and soon reached the balcony. Just then, they saw Jimmy lying lifelessly to one side, his condition unclear.
Meanwhile, the old man and a burly young man were busy stuffing stacks of banknotes into another bag.
Seeing this, the impatient Du Guanghe didn't say a word and was about to rush into the room.
However, the experienced He Yuzhu quickly shook his head, signaling him to calm down and observe the situation first.
So the two of them quietly hid in the shadows, holding their breath and listening intently as the master and apprentice inside the house whispered their plan for a safe escape.
After they finally reached an agreement and watched the master and apprentice leave, He Yuzhu lowered his voice and said:
"Alright, now you quietly follow them and find a suitable opportunity to intercept them on the road."
"Remember, don't alert them." Du Guanghe nodded knowingly, then quickly disappeared from the villa in another direction.
After watching Du Guanghe leave, He Yuzhu turned and went into the study, going straight to Jimmy's side...
"Why bother! How dare you provoke me!"
He Yuzhu's lips curled into a disdainful sneer. He slowly raised his right hand and seemingly casually tapped Jimmy's heart. But in that instant, a powerful and pure surge of energy, like a raging torrent, rushed into Jimmy's heart meridian.
After completing all this, He Yuzhu lightly touched the ground with his feet and leaped out of the window with the lightness of a ghost.
However, just as he landed, a low rumble of a car engine came from not far away.
He Yuzhu frowned, listened intently for a moment, and then sped off like an arrow towards the direction from which the sound came.
At the same time, Du Guanghe also heard the car drive away. His eyes flashed, and after the van disappeared from sight, he cautiously followed it.
The mountain road wound its way through the mountains like a giant python coiled among them. But Du Guanghe was clearly very familiar with the terrain and did not hesitate to choose the shortcut.
Before long, he successfully intercepted the van in front of him.
There were only two people in the van, one of whom was Huang Tielin, and the other was his apprentice.
At this moment, Huang Tielin's face was so gloomy it seemed like it could drip water, his right eye kept twitching, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart.
Nevertheless, he quickly reached for his weapon—a gleaming ring-pommel sword.
"Brother, what exactly do you mean by this?"
Du Guanghe crossed his arms and looked Huang Tielin up and down with great interest before slowly asking a question.
Huang Tielin took a deep breath, suppressing his unease, and said in a deep voice:
"I do not know what you mean by this, but please explain."
Du Guanghe smiled slightly and said softly:
"I am merely following orders. My master has ordered me to keep both of you here."
Upon hearing the word "Master," Huang Tielin's pupils contracted sharply, and he instantly understood.
Without a doubt, these people must have been sent by the family of the person they had previously kidnapped to pursue them.
Thinking of this, Huang Tielin felt his mood grow increasingly heavy. He had originally thought this operation would be foolproof, but who would have thought that they would encounter one formidable enemy after another.
First they encountered three highly skilled experts at the Transcendent Realm, and now another troublesome character has appeared. It seems they've really bitten off more than they can chew this time…
My actions were too slow. If I had known earlier that the other party possessed such astonishing speed, I would have undoubtedly left this place immediately without hesitation.
Actually, my speed wasn't slow, but I never expected to be intercepted by the other party halfway through.
However, this is not the time for regrets; we must quickly focus our efforts on dealing with the crisis at hand.
Huang Tielin gripped the hilt of his knife tightly, his eyes fixed on the person blocking his way, and said in a deep voice, "Brother, please make way!"
Standing opposite him, Du Guanghe simply shook his head slowly, a mocking smile playing on his lips.
He said, "What if I don't allow it?"
Huang Tielin snorted coldly upon hearing this, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. He had clearly lost patience and was unwilling to waste any more words with the other party.
