Chapter 947: Chapter 947
It was only then that Di Long realized Fire Fox was gravely injured, especially the artery in his thigh—it seed to be cut, and blood was flowing nonstop.
The water in the pool turned increasingly red, looking quite eerie.
Without thinking much, he quickly pulled Fire Fox up.
After coming up, Fire Fox imdiately tended to his wound; as an assassin, he knew so ergency asures.
Even so, Fire Fox still felt a wave of weakness.
However, what lingered more was the lingering fear; only he knew how dangerous it had been just now in the water.
If Zhang Yang had wanted to kill him, he might really not have survived just now.
The opponent had shown rcy.
Fire Fox looked at Zhang Yang, not knowing what to say for the mont.
He had initially wanted to ask Zhang Yang why he hadn’t killed him—was it because he was wary? But on second thought, it seed unlikely.
Just when he was puzzled, Zhang Yang proactively spoke, “I can take your life at any ti; don’t feel lucky that you’re alive right now.”
Fire Fox’s face changed dramatically—it was true that he was a bit scared of Zhang Yang now.
“Mr. Zhang Yang, I think we don’t need to make things irreparable between us,” Fire Fox hastily said.
Di Long saw Fire Fox in this state, knowing that not only had he suffered in the water just now, but he also lost his confidence.
This could only an the gap between them wasn’t ordinary. Even though he was much stronger than Fire Fox, if they fought, it wouldn’t make Fire Fox so fearful; this ant Zhang Yang was likely much stronger too.
Indeed, what they had previously discussed was correct.
So, taking advantage of Fire Fox’s words, he said to Zhang Yang, “Mr. Zhang Yang, I suppose you have vented quite a bit; can we have a proper talk now?”
Zhang Yang, however, said indifferently, “It’s not impossible to talk. First, tell about your relationship with the Xu Family.”
“Explain clearly your cooperation with the Xu Family.”
It was just as well that Xu ngyan was here; so things were better for her to hear personally.
Di Long did not hide anything, speaking straightforwardly, “We don’t have much of a relationship with the Xu Family; we cooperated in the past.”
“The main partner was Xu Longpo.”
“This ti, he contacted us proactively because he knew we used to be mbers of Blood-colored Begonia.”
“So he wanted to deal with Jin Tuantuan and needed helpers like us, offering quite a price.”
“Just coincidentally, we are very interested in Blood-colored Begonia, so we hit it off imdiately.”
“But our cooperation with Xu Longpo is limited to this; other than the matter of Blood-colored Begonia, it has nothing to do with us.”
“Especially when he once wanted to commission us to kill Mr. Zhang Yang, but we refused.”
“What we wanted was, after he drew you away, to take down Jin Tuantuan in one go.”
“Then control the entire Blood-colored Begonia, which would remove this threat for Xu Longpo.”
“This is all of our cooperation; there are no further relations besides this.”
Xu ngyan’s face looked sowhat unsightly; indeed, it was his uncle who actively contacted them to deal with Zhang Yang.
This was ant to cut off Zhang Yang’s wings, leaving him isolated, making him much easier to deal with in their eyes.
Previously, Xu Longpo had strongly denied that this matter had anything to do with him.
Though Xu ngyan didn’t believe Xu Longpo’s words entirely, she had hesitated.
But now, she only felt a bit ridiculous and even more guilty towards Zhang Yang.
Earlier, she had even helped Xu Longpo plead with Zhang Yang; in hindsight, she truly shouldn’t have.
Zhang Yang didn’t pay attention to Xu ngyan; after Di Long finished explaining, he asked, “I’m curious why you two didn’t directly think of a way to kill .”
“Given your strength and experience, you’d still have a chance to kill .”
Hearing Zhang Yang’s question, Fire Fox grinned, “You’ve finally gotten to the point because we never intended to kill you from the beginning.”
“Believe it or not, our goal was solely Blood-colored Begonia.”
“Not even Little Tuantuan was targeted for her life.”
“We just wanted to control her; if I must explain, our objective was to command the feudal lords by holding the sovereign hostage.”
“Controlling Little Tuantuan would be equivalent to controlling the entire Blood-colored Begonia.”
“But regarding this issue, we aren’t forcing it because our ultimate goal is just to get so retirent money.”
After Fire Fox finished speaking, Di Long added, “Frankly, we just want a piece of Blood-colored Begonia’s business.”
“This way, not only can we retire, but we can also leave sothing behind for our descendants.”
“The reason we didn’t choose to beco mortal enemies with you is, first, we couldn’t gauge your strength, and second, because it’s not worth risking our lives for so retirent funds.”
Zhang Yang squinted slightly, seeming to ponder whether what these two said was believable.
At this mont, Jin Tuantuan snorted, “Talking so nicely when the real reason is you’re afraid of Zhang Yang.”
“You know you’re no match for Zhang Yang, and you realize that even those assassination thods might not succeed—if you fail, you’re dead.”
“No one expected that you two would fear death.”
Facing Jin Tuantuan’s mockery, both Di Long and Fire Fox didn’t get very angry.
They didn’t even take Jin Tuantuan seriously, knowing that the real decision-maker was Zhang Yang.
“Zhang Yang, want to collaborate?” Di Long said, with a hint of sincerity on his face.
“How to collaborate? Go on,” Zhang Yang inquired.
If it were the past, Zhang Yang would have undoubtedly refused without hesitation, but now, being in H Country, and confronting such chaebols as the Xu Family, the situation had changed.
Subsequently, more forces would be involved—having one more friend is far better than having one more enemy.
The reason Zhang Yang spared Fire Fox was that earlier when saving soone, Fire Fox had the chance to hold him back.
But he didn’t do so. This shows that these two did indeed consider working with him.
So when they saw him, neither of them made a move.
The fight in the water earlier was Zhang Yang’s initiative to vent for Jin Tuantuan.
Di Long breathed a sigh of relief; Zhang Yang’s words also gave him hope.
“We want two of Blood-colored Begonia’s gold mines; if you agree, the two of us can stay and help you deal with so tricky people.”
“Our cooperation is limited within H Country; when you leave, that’s when our collaboration ends—after that, we won’t ddle in each other’s affairs.”
