Chapter 295 - On My Honor



Chapter 295 On My Honor

As an experienced man, Murong Qingtian was not very afraid when facing the dark muzzle and did not care about danger too much.

Murong Qingtian chuckled with obvious sarcasm in his tone. “Haotian, you’ve really failed me! Considering the brotherhood between you and me, I do not want to believe that you would betray me. You really delivered me a blow! As your elder brother, I don’t think I have done something bad to you. I have left all the industries of Murong Gang to you, but I did not expect that you’d be so greedy.”

Murong Haotian’s face, which was twisted, looked fierce. “Don’t pretend to be a good man in front of me. If you had not held back a trick or two years ago, how could you have made the Murong Family so big? You own more than us!”

Murong Qingtian felt bitterly disappointed by Murong Haotian’s words. His eyes were full of sorrow. “Haotian, what you said really broadened my horizons.”

Murong Qingtian no longer hoped to explain. It was useless. Once a person lost trust in someone, everything they said would be nonsense.

Murong Haotian stepped forward while still pointing at Murong Qingtian’s forehead with the pistol. Murong Qingtian showed no fear. Instead, he leaned forward and put his forehead against the pistol.

This action shocked Murong Haotian, Murong Yunxi and Lu Yang.

Lu Yang, who was slightly distracted, was slammed a few times. As a result, his chest hurt a lot.

Upon noticing that the current situation was getting worse and worse, Murong Yunxi drew her pistol from her waist and pointed it at Murong Haotian.

Murong Yunxi had promised Lu Yang not to use a pistol before they had gone there, but she had still secretly tucked a pistol in her pants. Under the circumstances, she had to take it out.

Murong Haotian was also shocked by her action. It was not surprising that she would bring a pistol, but she had not taken it out for a long time. Thus, he’d thought she had not brought one.

“You! I did not expect that such a young girl would have a pistol. So what? It will just be a tool in your hand!” Murong Haotian looked down on Murong Yunxi’s behavior and thought that she did not know how to use it. Perhaps, Murong Ye had sent one to her for fun. Even if she knew how to use it, she might not have the courage to shoot.

Murong Yunxi smiled mentally upon noticing that Murong Haotian looked down on her. This way, he would relax and be less vigilant around her.

After turning to Murong Qingtian, Murong Haotian spoke casually. It seemed that the pistol in Xiao Xi’s hand was not pointing at him. “Big Brother, you really have a good daughter. Even though you never raised her during all those years, she dares to hold that pistol to save you.”

The corner of Murong Yunxi’s mouth curled slightly as she turned her pistol and shot at Murong Haotian’s finger, causing his pistol-holding hand to lose its balance. The pistol fell onto the ground. Murong Yunxi took action fast and kicked it toward Lu Yang’s side.

No one had expected this turn of events. However, Lu Yang reacted quickly and picked up the pistol.

Murong Yunxi kept pointing at Murong Haotian all this while. She changed color and angrily shouted at all the guards, “Step back now!”

No one dared take action rashly, especially Murong Haotian, who had not expected that Murong Yunxi would shoot him. Blood streamed from his fingers like a running water tap. After dripping along his finger, the blood fell down to the ground and formed a pool by his feet.

Murong Yunxi told Lu Yang, “Lu Yang, you should go first with my father.”

Lu Murong, who was somewhat hesitant, planned to replace Murong Yunxi and hold the pistol. After all, as a man, he could not leave a woman here alone.

Murong Yunxi guessed his idea and pulled a long face. “Hurry up and leave. Don’t be hesitant. Don’t try to show your masculinity right now.”

Lu Yang nodded and pulled up Murong Qingtian to leave. The moment the eyes of the three individuals met, they neither noticed Murong Haotian’s movement nor saw the person making eye contact with Murong Haotian.

A gunshot was heard again before Murong Qingtian and Lu Yang got out. Lu Yang turned to Murong Yunxi but realized that she was not the person who had shot. He turned back and saw Murong Qingtian sway slightly and fall down on the other side.

Both Murong Yunxi and Lu Yang were shocked. Neither of them had expected that someone else would bring a pistol. The moment they slacked, the bullet hit Murong Qingtian’s back.

Murong Yunxi tried to look for the person who had shot her father but could not figure out their identity for a short time, as too many guards had gathered there.

Murong Yunxi held the pistol against Murong Haotian’s head more tightly and shouted at the crowd, “Give me the pistol, or I will shoot!”

Although Lu Yang was worried about Murong Yunxi, he had to take out Murong Qingtian, who was bleeding from his back. At this urgent moment, he could not care too much. Thus, he rushed towards the gate while holding Murong Qingtian. He intended to return to save Murong Yunxi after transferring her father out.

Murong Yunxi finally felt relieved after hearing the sound of the door closing. Thanks to her near-death experience, she no longer felt afraid of death, even though she cherished her life.

Without fear, she behaved more calmly. She dragged Murong Haotian and stepped back, focusing on the crowd. The person who had taken out the pistol did not stand out. She knew that it was useless to wonder, so she had to find an opportunity to escape through the gap.

As they moved back one step, the crowd was forced foward one step. Murong Yunxi shouted, “Stop! Just stop if you don’t want to see me shoot your master’s head.”

Murong Haotian pretended to be calm and told Murong Yunxi with a smile, “You’re just a little girl who can’t compare to men who always carry pistols with them. I think you’d better put down the pistol. If you do, you won’t be in trouble!”

Murong Yunxi snorted. “Second Uncle, don’t make jokes. You dared to trap your biological brother, not to mention me, a daughter raised by another family. You have been trying to kill me all along! You must be regretting that I did not die last time. If you captured me today, I would die faster! Do you think I am a fool? Would I trust your word? Even if I can’t get out today, I will kill you before I die!”

Murong Haotian had not expected that it would not be easy to fool this girl. The smile on his face vanished. “I’m warning you, little girl. Don’t make it so hard. I have turned hostile with my brother, so I have no scruples anymore. I will get what I want, no matter what I have to pay for it.”

“Well, Second Uncle, I am sorry that my life is not under your control! At the moment, your life is in my hands!” After one year of tough experiences, Murong Yunxi was no longer the same person. In fact, she had always had a potential ruthlessness, not only when it came to others, but also herself.

“To tell you the truth, I don’t believe that a little girl like you could cause any big trouble! You really think that you possess the characteristics of the Murong Family after staying with them for a few days? I don’t believe that you will kill me!” This was what Murong Haotian thought indeed. He did not believe that Murong Yunxi would dare to shoot him. She had only shot his hand earlier. If she dared to kill people, she would have shot at his head.

However, Murong Haotian did not know that the reason Murong Yunxi had shot at his hand instead of his head was to ensure Murong Qingtian’s safety. She was worried that if she shot at Murong Haotian’s head, he would pull the trigger at once. She had chosen to shoot his finger to render him unable to shoot anyone.

“Oh? Second Uncle seems to be very confident! However, I am also very confident. If you don’t believe me, I don’t mind using you as my test subject. I’ll give you a chance to see whether I would dare to shoot you.”

“Ha ha… Little girl, I used those threatening words more than a decade ago. Do you think I would be afraid of you?”

Murong Yunxi tightened the pistol against Murong Haotian’s head. In fact, she was not afraid to pull the trigger. However, once she killed Murong Haotian, the guards would not let her go. If she faced so many people alone, she might not escape even though she had a pistol. Perhaps, many guards had pistols too. Murong Yunxi knew very well that she would not sacrifice her own life for Murong Haotian’s.

She could not waste her life this way, even though she was not afraid of death.

Murong Haotian felt a little nervous. However, he still did not believe that Murong Yunxi would dare kill him. He was afraid that she might pull the trigger by accident.

The two sides both refused to give up. Murong Yunxi was hesitant about how to persevere.

Murong Haotian tried to disrupt Murong Yunxi’s line of thought. This way, he could take the initiative.

At the same time, the guards in front of her would also keep an eye out for an opportunity to rescue Murong Haotian.

At the moment, neither side was willing to give in or act rashly. However, this kind of stalemate could not last long, as it would not be beneficial for either side. Any mistake would destroy everything.

“How about this? Xiao Xi, let’s make a deal!” Murong Haotian tried to negotiate with Murong Yunxi.

“Oh? What kind of deal do you want to make with me?” Murong Yunxi raised her eyebrow and looked at Murong Haotian. Meanwhile, she monitored the movement of the guards out of the corner of her eye.

“Ha ha… If you let go of me now, I will give you enough time to escape. What do you think?”

“Second Uncle, do you think I am stupid? Is there any way I can rely on you? How can I believe that you will really give me time to escape instead of shooting me in secret?”

“I swear on my honor that everyone here will put down the pistols and give you 10 minutes to run.”

“On your honor? I can’t trust your honor! I wouldn’t even dare save my life if it meant relying on your honor. It wouldn’t be worthwhile!”

“So, shall we keep acting like this?”
