"Just now three people came from outside our Xia family. They said that Brother Shunqiang was in their hands!"
The man took a deep breath and said solemnly.
"what?"
Xia Hongda stood up from the chair at once: "Shunqiang is in their hands?"
"That's what they said, and they also said that there was a letter written by Brother Shunqiang, but they asked to see you." The man said solemnly.
"Where are they now?" Xia Hongda asked with a frown.
"It's still outside the gate."
The man said without hesitation: "I let them in. If they can't, they will wait for you outside."
"Go, go out and have a look." Xia Hongda made a decision immediately.
Xia Shunqiang is his favorite son. Although he doesn't believe that anything will happen to Xia Shunqiang, he dare not take any care about Xia Shunqiang.
Thinking of this, Xia Hongda immediately walked out with the man.
...
Outside the gate of Xia's house, Lu Mingyuan, Wei Heguang, and Jiang Feiwen stood in front of the car.
"Brother Lu, will the Xia Family Patriarch not come out to see us?" Wei Heguang asked with some worry.
This was the first thing Lin Fan gave to the three of them. He didn't want the first thing to be done well.
Before Lu Mingyuan could speak, Jiang Feiwen said on the side: "It shouldn't be! Xia Shunqiang is the Young Patriarch of the Xia Family anyway. Something happened to their Young Patriarch. Could it be that the Patriarch Xia is still calm as a father?"
"I'm afraid he doesn't believe it!" Wei Heguang said.
Lu Mingyuan shook his head and said, "You won't believe it. Didn't you pay attention? Just now when we said that Xia Shunqiang was in our hands, the expressions of the Xia family obviously changed. This is enough to show that they also know Xia Shunqiang. Not in the family, and we came to find them again, they would not think that the three of us dare to come to the Xia family to make trouble."
"Brother Lu is right." Jiang Feiwen nodded: "Patriarch Xia will come out to see us anyway. As long as we behave well later, let him believe that Xia Shunqiang is indeed in our hands."
Lu Mingyuan thought for a while, and said, "Wait for you two to act by chance, don't say anything that shouldn't be said, so as not to cause them more suspicion."
"Okay, Brother Lu."
Wei Heguang and Jiang Feiwen nodded.
"By the way, I thought of a key thing." Lu Mingyuan said suddenly.
"Brother Lu, what is the key thing?"
Wei Heguang and Jiang Feiwen looked at Lu Mingyuan together, and there was a strong curiosity on their faces.
"Don't the Xia Family Patriarch possess the strength of a Level 5 Evolutionary?"
Lu Mingyuan narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Then his hearing is much better than ours. Later, if he doesn't believe me when I talk to him, you two can pretend to speak quietly to prevent them from hearing that way. ."
"The content of the words probably means that if they don't get ten fourth-level energy crystals, whether they really want to kill Xia Shunqiang."
"In this way, he hears you whispering, and is still discussing whether you really want to kill Xia Shunqiang, then he will definitely believe that Xia Shunqiang is in our hands, and he will be obediently in our hands. Ten fourth-level energy crystals are ready for us."
"Okay! This trick is great!"
"Brother Lu! This trick is too clever!"
When Lu Mingyuan finished speaking, Wei Heguang and Jiang Feiwen couldn't help but praise them.
They think this idea of Lu Mingyuan is really good.
The more he pretended to inadvertently ‘guide’ Xia Hongda, the more likely Xia Hongda would believe it.
"Do this later." Lu Mingyuan smiled slightly.
While the three of them were talking, some figures quickly emerged from the gate of the Xia family.
Most of these people were senior figures in the Xia family, and they had already heard about Xia Shunqiang.
Xia Shunqiang was the Young Patriarch of their Xia family. If something happened to the Young Patriarch, they would naturally gather to negotiate.
"It's the three boys?"
"I think they must be liars, just grab them and tidy up and be honest!"
"Yes, dare to come to our Xia family to lie and do things, I'm really tired of living!"
"No matter what you think, you have to wait for the Patriarch to decide. The Patriarch didn't come over. What are you talking about?"
"Yes, everything has to wait for the Patriarch to come."
The senior officials of the Xia family began to discuss, and many people agreed that the three of Lu Mingyuan had come to lie.
For these voices, the three of Lu Mingyuan did not pay attention to them. They did not need to talk to these people, they only needed to talk to the Xia Family Patriarch.
Soon, Xia Hongda also came here.
"Patriarch."
Seeing Xia Hong arrived, everyone in the Xia family shouted in unison.
Xia Hongda nodded slightly, walked straight out, and everyone in the Xia family quickly followed.
"You said Shunqiang was in your hands?" Xia Hongda looked at the three of Lu Mingyuan.
"Are you the Patriarch of the Xia Family?" Lu Mingyuan asked.
"Yes, I am." Xia Hongda nodded.
"Xia Shunqiang is indeed in our hands." Lu Mingyuan said.
"Is there any evidence?" Xia Hongda asked.
"Here is his handwriting." Lu Mingyuan raised the note in his hand.
"Can you show me?" Xia Hongda asked again.
"Of course." Lu Mingyuan nodded and walked towards Xia Hongda, his pace was steady and calm, without a trace of panic.
During this process, Xia Hongda kept his eyes fixed on Lu Mingyuan. He wanted to see from Lu Mingyuan's steps whether Lu Mingyuan was flustered or nervous.
If so, it is very likely that Lu Mingyuan is lying.
In fact, facing a Level 5 evolutionary like Xia Hongda, Lu Mingyuan still feels very stressed, but he is not here to lie, but Xia Shunqiang is indeed in their hands, so he can't show any panic and nervousness.
After walking to Xia Hongda, Lu Mingyuan passed the note in his hand.
Xia Hongda reached out and took the note, opened it and looked at it. At first glance, he could see that it was Xia Shunqiang's handwriting.
After all, Xia Shunqiang is his son, and he is very familiar with Xia Shunqiang's handwriting.
After reading the content of the letter, Xia Hongda frowned and said: "You mean let us give ten fourth-level energy crystals to release Shunqiang back?"
"Yes, we want ten fourth-level energy crystals." Lu Mingyuan nodded.
Ten four-level energy crystals! ?
When those senior Xia family members behind heard this number, a thick look of consternation appeared on their faces.
Immediately afterwards, the heated discussion spread again.
"Is this here to blackmail our Xia family? Dare to ask for so many level 4 energy crystals!"
"It simply doesn't put our Xia family in the eyes! Who do they think they are?"
"Too arrogant! Patriarch, take them down if I want to, so that they will become hostages in our hands."
"Yes! Patriarch, order us to take them down! See if they dare to be arrogant!"
The voices of everyone in the Xia family were full of anger.
Ten four-level energy crystals are also quite a fortune for their Xia family.
Xia Hongda ignored the voices of the people, but kept squinting at Lu Mingyuan.
He was wondering why what Lu Mingyuan and others wanted to blackmail was just ten fourth-level energy crystals.
Isn't this figure exactly what Zheng Guodong promised to give them the Xia family to search for Lin Fan and others?
"Patriarch Xia, your son's life will be in our hands. You don't think his life is less important than ten fourth-level energy crystals, do you?" Lu Mingyuan asked.
"Who are you guys? Why do you want to take action against our Xia family?" Xia Hongda asked suspiciously.
He has the strength of a fifth-level evolutionary. If he wants to win the three of Lu Mingyuan, he can definitely do it easily, but he won't do it for the time being, because the handwriting on the note is indeed Xia Shunqiang.
If he did this and something happened to Xia Shunqiang, he would definitely regret it for a lifetime.
"I should ask you this question."
Lu Mingyuan said indifferently: "It was your Xia family who wanted to attack us, and we did the reverse."
"Shall we shoot you?" Xia Hongda frowned.
"Not bad."
Lu Mingyuan continued: "If you don’t collect the reward from the Zheng family to help the Zheng family search us, then there will be no conflict between us and you. Unfortunately, you have chosen to help the Zheng family. You become enemies."
Hearing this, Xia Hongda reacted abruptly, his eyes flashed, and said: "Are you Lin Fan's group?"
"Yes! Lin Fan is the captain of our team!"
Lu Mingyuan said righteously: "After Xia Shunqiang and others see us, they must attack us, and we have no way to fight back."
Now everyone in the Xia family also came to their senses, and the people who caught Xia Shunqiang and others together were Lin Fan's group.
Xia Hongda took two deep breaths, and now he understood why he would just ask them for ten fourth-level energy crystals. It turned out that all of this was calculated!
"Why didn't Lin Fan come here in person?" Xia Hongda asked with a frown.
When he asked this question, he was actually thinking about another question, that is, the lineup of Xia Shunqiang and others were not bad, why were they taken by Lin Fan's team?
Isn't it that Lin Fan's team is the only one who possesses the strength of Level 4 Evolution?
Even if the situation of this strength is deviated, it is not deviated to the extent that Xia Shunqiang's late-stage fourth-level evolutionary can't beat it, right?
Even if you really can't beat it, don't you have a chance to retreat?
A series of doubts flashed through Xia Hongda's mind.
"Patriarch Xia, everyone is smart, don't you need to say this kind of thing too clearly?" Lu Mingyuan said.
"What do you mean?" Xia Hongda asked, looking at Lu Mingyuan's eyes.
"If all of our people come over, doesn't it mean that you will be taken down? What is the meaning of our request?" Lu Mingyuan asked back.
Hearing this, Xia Hongda's eyes flashed a sullen look. He took a deep breath and stared at Lu Mingyuan again and asked: "Then how can I be sure that my son is still alive?"
"Now you can only choose to believe what I said. Besides, is there any other choice?" Lu Mingyuan smiled slightly, still acting calmly.
