73 -73: One of Three Brothers Dies
Xiang Yu stood there with a serene expression; he genuinely didn’t consider these people a threat.
“Tie Zhuzi, did you bring my peanuts?” Xiang Yu patted Tie Zhuzi’s shoulder and asked.
“Got them right here.” Tie Zhuzi said and took out the peanuts from his pocket and handed them to Xiang Yu.
Luo Li, watching from the side and feeling underestimated by Xiang Yu, clenched his teeth in anger and pointed at the three of them, “Chop them into pieces for me, I want them dead without intact corpses.”
Just then, Shi Jian charged in with his men, all armed with guns, and surrounded Luo Li and his group.
Luo Li scoffed and cried out, “You think you can contend with me with just these few people?
How delusional.” No sooner had he finished speaking than another group entered, each armed with submachine guns.
“Xiang Yu…” Shi Jian approached Xiang Yu, somewhat nervously.
Xiang Yu simply smiled faintly, then took a gun from Shi Jian, released the safety, and looked at Luo Li, “Do you believe I could kill you before your men start shooting?”
Xiang Yu spoke calmly, but Luo Li trembled all over.
He could not tell if Xiang Yu was lying, and Xiang Yu’s composure, showing no sign of nervousness, made him wonder if Xiang Yu was unafraid of death.
For a moment, Luo Li stood there unsure of what to do.
Yan Bin had only told him to kill Xiang Yu, but the situation clearly was getting out of control.
If it really came to blows and ended in a draw, it wouldn’t be worth it.
Moreover, there was a chance that Xiang Yu could indeed kill him in a short time, which would be a bigger miscalculation.
As Luo Li was caught in a dilemma, Yan Bin suddenly came down from above and yelled, “What are you doing, put your guns away.”
Just now, Yan Bin had been blinded by rage.
Now he had come to his senses and thought it over; they couldn’t kill Xiang Yu yet.
If they killed Xiang Yu now, it would be hard to explain to the old man, and if they divided Xiang Yu’s assets and territories without including him, that would be problematic.
“Luo Li, have the men put away their weapons.
Xiang Yu is our brother.
How can we treat him like this?” Yan Bin said furiously.
Xiang Yu knew he was acting, but he didn’t point it out and instead tossed his pistol back to Shi Jian before turning to Yan Bin, “Boss Yan, your men don’t seem very obedient.”
“Xiang Yu, do you know who you just killed?
He was one of my best men, and killing him like that wasn’t very nice, was it?” Yan Bin said.
From Xiang Yu’s attitude, he had already concluded that getting Xiang Yu to switch sides was impossible, and the two were destined to be archenemies.
“No choice, he was trying to kill me, so I had to strike back.
Boss Yan, this wasn’t your idea, was it?” Xiang Yu looked at Yan Bin with a wronged expression.
“Of course not, I didn’t need him to kill you.
However, as he was my brother and, as the rule goes, debts are repaid, and life is for life; since you are my brother, I can’t kill you, but…” Yan Bin said and suddenly pulled out a gun and pointed it at Tie Zhuzi.
The scene suddenly tensed up again, Shi Jian and the others swiftly raised their guns.
Yan Bin’s men also pointed their guns at Xiang Yu and his crew.
“Boss Yan, if you dare make a move, I’ll relocate your head.” At that moment, Xiang Yu’s dagger was already on Yan Bin’s neck, and seeing his indifferent face, Yan Bin suddenly felt chilled all over.
“Put down the knife, put down the knife…” Luo Li cried out, staring wide-eyed.
He had been watching Xiang Yu, but hadn’t seen how Xiang Yu had managed to draw the knife; he even suspected that Xiang Yu could perform magic, having conjured it directly.
Yan Bin pretended to be calm and gestured with his hand for Luo Li to not be impulsive, then instructed them to lower their guns.
The two sides were at a standoff, and a slight slip could lead to gunfire, which might spiral out of control.
And Xiang Yu, that fool, might just slash his own neck.
“Xiang Yu, would you really risk your life for a simpleton?” Yan Bin did not lower his gun, and Xiang Yu also did not let go of his dagger.
“I’m different from you; my brothers’ lives mean more to me than my own.
You can kill me, but you cannot kill my brothers.” Xiang Yu lowered his dagger, then moved Yan Bin’s arm to point the gun at his own head.
“Brother Yu!” Tie Zhuzi called out, moved yet worried.
Xiang Yu gestured with his hand to stop him from speaking.
“Brave kid, I’ll give you that,” Yan Bin suddenly lowered his gun and said, “But you killed my brother, so I can’t just let you walk out of here so easily.
You have three brothers, so here’s the deal: you take two of them with you, and leave one behind for me.” Yan Bin suddenly sneered devilishly.
Since all three were Xiang Yu’s brothers, choosing any one to leave behind would cause dissatisfaction among the other two, thus fracturing the bond between them.
Xiang Yu, you value emotions, don’t you?
You think the lives of your brothers are more important than your own, right?
I can’t wait to see how you handle this choice.
At the same time, Yan Bin took a few steps backward to avoid Xiang Yu threatening him with the dagger again.
He had indeed broken out in a cold sweat earlier, as he hadn’t expected Xiang Yu to take such extreme action.
“Brother Wu, how about this?” Holding the dagger, Xiang Yu suddenly stabbed himself in the leg, and blood spurted out along the groove of the dagger.
“Xiang Yu, Brother Yu,” Shi Jian and the others rushed forward to support him.
Simultaneously, Shi Jian raised his gun again, “Let’s fight them.”
Xiang Yu quickly grabbed Shi Jian and called out, “Nobody move.”
Yan Bin had not expected Xiang Yu to stab his own thigh like that.
With such a wound, Xiang Yu would be almost crippled.
This kid is such an idiot; it’s only one person.
They could always seek revenge later, but now it would be hard for him to fight again.
Yan Bin couldn’t help feeling secretly delighted, knowing Xiang Yu’s leg would take months to heal even if it wasn’t completely crippled.
The upcoming boxing match couldn’t be canceled, and finding someone to easily take him down would be straightforward.
Taking down Xiang Yu and then taking his brothers out for good would indeed be satisfying.
“Of course, your leg is worth the lives of two men,” Yan Bin finally couldn’t help laughing out loud, then turned and walked away.
Seeing Yan Bin leaving, Luo Li and the others also followed him.
Only Xiang Yu and his group remained at the scene.
Shi Jian and the others watched Xiang Yu with concern.
He remained calm, casually eating peanuts as if the red liquid flowing from his leg was not his own.
The twenty or so brothers around were moved by Xiang Yu’s actions, swearing to follow him loyally.
“Are you crazy?
How will you fight him later if you end up like this?
If you get killed, what will we do?” Shi Jian’s eyes reddened as he shouted at Xiang Yu.
“Did you see?
This guy has no conscience whatsoever,” Xiang Yu said, pointing at Shi Jian and smiling.
The reason Xiang Yu dared to stab his own thigh was precisely because he had undergone training in this area.
He understood every part of his leg and knew where a stab wouldn’t cause too much damage…
