Chapter 783 - 783 Elder Chen and His Disciple
Vice-President Tang gripped his phone tightly.
As the Grand Elder of the Green Cloud Pavilion, Elder Nie had done many things for them over the years. If he could negotiate with her right now, then he
If not, the hearts of those who worked for the GreenCloud Pavilion would turn cold.
He must at least try his best to retrieve him.
But this also very much depended on the conditions she set out.
“If you release Elder Chen and his disciple, Elder Nie will return unscathed,” Yao Tang stated.
Her voice was stable, and he could find no other flaws.
Vice-President Tan raised an eyebrow. “Two people in exchange for him? That’s a bit...unfair, right?” he casually said. “I’m sure you know that Elder Chen and his disciple are important assets to the Cabinet. No matter how you look at it, this exchange already puts us at a disadvantage.”
That’s right.
Although Elder Nie was also a member of the Cabinet, his position wasn’t as high as he had wished. He was just considered as any other Elder.
Elder Chen was different.
His prestige ranked him as one of the Top 5 Members of the organization.
His disciple was also a well-known musician at such a young age. Despite his limitations, he also had a great breakthrough in his spiritual progress.
They weren’t the same level as her hostage.
Although Elder Nie was the Grand Elder of the Green Cloud Pavilion, he’d provide nothing for them, given that he was only an Elder of the Inner Pavilion.
Yao Tang smiled. “That’s where you’re wrong,” she replied. “We’re exchanging dozens of people for two. Why don’t you think about it more, okay?”
What?
His eyes widened in realization.
The dozens of people she was talking about—could she be referring to the people she had brought over? Most of them were practically lying on the ground, dead.
Do these people have any value?
Was she really thing to use them to exchange for her?
Although Elder Nie wanted to live, he knew that there were great horrifying punishments waiting for him in the outside world. If Vice-President Tang were to see the pile of corpses, the man would be more than furious.
He couldn’t help but shiver at the thought of Vice-President Tang’s punishments.
“Those people ...”
Elder Nie only had time to say a couple of words before Yao Tang pressed on one of his acupuncture points. Her movements were quick.
And by the time he had realized it, he couldn’t speak!
He glanced over at Yao Tang.
What should he do?
Seeing Elder Nie’s appearance, Tan Jian suddenly felt a pit in his stomach. The last thing they all needed was for the man to start speaking up.
Thus, Tan Jian quickly took off his belt.
In a few moves, Tan Jian tied Elder Nie up before placing his hands right behind his back. Every single knot was pulled over so tightly that the man could no longer move.
The man now had no other chances of breaking free.
Rip!
Under Elder Nie’s disbelieving gaze, he tore a large piece of the old man’s shirt and stuffed it into the man’s mouth. Now, he had no chance to speak.
Tan Jian grinned, clapping his hands together.
Watching him go, President Tan couldn’t help but smile in satisfaction. Who knew that his silly son was finally acting smart for one?
It seemed that his son had finally learned!
The other end of the line was silent.
Vice-President Tang couldn’t help but think of all the guard’s Elder Nie has brought with him. They were elites of the Green Cloud Pavilion, and many of them have been blessed with great mental energy.
They were not only smart, but strong.
More importantly, they were loyal. It would be difficult and troublesome to find another group similar to their stature. He clucked his tongue.
Just the entrance examination alone was difficult.
