Chapter 2614: Chapter 2614: Give Me Back the Ring
Jian Yufei said through gritted teeth on purpose, "I don’t want to do this either, but don’t push us! If you dare to harm him, I dare to do something that will make you suffer!"
Nangong Xu still stared at her silently.
Jian Yufei raised the Ashes Box high.
"Nangong Xu, you won’t lose out in this deal at all; it’s just a matter of getting the antidote a bit later.
If you don’t agree, do you want to get the antidote and then kill us? Are you not genuinely letting us go?
If that’s the case, then we might as well drag you down with us and see whose life is worth more!"
"Are you threatening me?" Nangong Xu’s gaze turned icy.
Jian Yufei sneered, "If we don’t threaten you, can we still survive? We’re all trying to survive. If you don’t give us a way out, don’t expect us to give you one!"
Ruan Tianling nodded in agreement, "My wife is right, we’ll live together or die together. Within ten days, if you can’t take the other half of the antidote, then be prepared to meet your end."
Nangong Xu suddenly chuckled.
He put away his gun, "Fine, if you don’t deliver the antidote on time, I won’t mind starting a massacre. If I’m going to die, we’ll all die together."
He was agreeing to Ruan Tianling’s proposal.
Jian Yufei breathed a sigh of relief, "There’s one more condition, what about the Double Dragon Ring? Since you can’t inherit the family, give the ring back to me!"
Nangong Wenxiang had repeatedly warned her not to lose the ring, not to give it to anyone.
At that time, she had no choice but to hand over the Double Dragon Ring to save herself and Junqi.
Now that she had the chance to take it back, she naturally wouldn’t miss it.
No matter what, that was all of Nangong Wenxiang’s hope, she couldn’t let him down.
Nangong Xu snorted, "You still want the ring?"
"Anyway, the ring is useless to you! And my grandfather entrusted the ring to me, I can’t lose it. What use do you have for a few useless rings?"
The Double Dragon Ring was indeed useless; he no longer cared for the Nangong Family.
Without the ring, he could still control the family, because he no longer needed anyone’s support.
Previously, he would pretend, act in ways that would garner everyone’s support.
Now, naturally no need to disguise anymore.
Nangong Xu glanced at the Ashes Box in her hand, "Alright, I’ll satisfy one more of your requests. The ring is in there."
Jian Yufei was stunned—
The ring is in the Ashes Box?
Jian Yufei hurriedly opened the Ashes Box, and sure enough, inside were ten Double Dragon Rings, not any ashes.
Nangong Xu had been hugging this Ashes Box, and she thought there were actual ashes inside.
Jian Yufei raised her head in shock, "Where are the ashes inside?"
Nangong Xu gently stroked the diamond ring on the ring finger of his left hand; Jian Yufei looked over and realized something.
"Did you turn the ashes into a ring?"
Nangong Xu raised his hand and smiled tenderly at the ring, "Isn’t this easier to carry?"
Jian Yufei’s expression was very complicated.
That was an unknown person’s ashes, and he had made it into a ring to wear...
What could she even say?
Jian Yufei’s complex expression, in Nangong Xu’s view, seemed to mean she was reluctant.
He smirked, then spread out his hand, looking at the securely wrapped antidote in his palm.
"Will taking it have an immediate effect?" he asked casually.
Ruan Tianling nodded, "That’s right, but because the effect isn’t strong enough, it can only delay the onset of the poison."
Nangong Xu opened the medicine pack, and without any doubt, swallowed it directly.
Suddenly, his body miraculously felt better, and he seemed more energized.
