What to do?
Although the jackal was sent away, the practical problems still weighed heavily on Lei Hadun and Charlie.
They could not cede the Flash Mercenary Group, but they did not know how to resist the attack of the Tam Mercenary Group.
Finally, Lei Hadun slowly took out a business card, which was left to him by Ye Cangtian.
He was at his wit's end, but Ye Cangtian might still be able to turn the tide, otherwise he would not have left the business card to him.
He could only gamble now, gamble that what Ye Cangtian said was true, and gamble that Chinese forces had no intentions towards the Flash Mercenary Group.
"Mr. Ye, where are you now? Can I ask you to come back for a while?"
When the phone was connected, Lei Hadun spoke with difficulty.
It was the most embarrassing moment of his life to personally ask the person he had just driven away to come back.
"Heh, I was just resting."
"Let's talk about anything tomorrow."
On the other end, Ye Cangtian lay on the bed, speaking with a playful smile.
He had not left, but had casually rented a guesthouse on the island, waiting for Lei Hadun's call.
However, to his surprise, Lei Hadun called him after only three or four hours, which was a bit too quick.
But this also explained one thing: Lei Hadun must have met with the people from the Tam Mercenary Group, and they parted on bad terms.
Otherwise, Lei Hadun would not have called him.
Since that was the case, he could not be blamed. If he did not make things difficult for Lei Hadun, the other party would never cherish this opportunity.
"No, no, no, if it's tomorrow, it will be too late!"
"Mr. Ye, I beg you, please come quickly!"
Lei Hadun said hurriedly. The jackal had given him a deadline before sunset.
And since he had parted on bad terms with the jackal, the attack by the Tam Mercenary Group would probably be even earlier.
If they waited until tomorrow, the Flash Mercenary Group would likely suffer heavy losses.
"Heh, Lei Hadun, who do you think you are? And who do you think I am?"
"Why should I come whenever you call?"
"Besides, what does the life and death of your Flash Mercenary Group have to do with me!"
Ye Cangtian's voice came, making Lei Hadun's face as ugly as it could be.
He knew that Ye Cangtian not only wanted to vent, but also wanted to take advantage of the situation to extort something. After all, there was no free lunch.
Thinking of this, Lei Hadun pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Ye, the Flash Mercenary Group cannot resist the attack of the Tam Mercenary Group. If you don't make a move, we can only choose to surrender!"
Lei Hadun chose to gamble again. He knew that Ye Cangtian absolutely did not want them to defect to the Guangming Temple.
So this was his bargaining chip, to tell Ye Cangtian that it was best not to have any ulterior motives.
"Heh, then you surrender."
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and continued, "I said before that the Dark Association also has its eyes on you. If you surrender to the Guangming Temple, I believe that not long after, the army of the Dark Association will descend upon the Dark Gate!"
"Ye Cangtian, are you underestimating the Guangming Temple too much?"
Upon hearing this, Lei Hadun's face immediately turned grim.
Since they had defected to the Guangming Temple, the Guangming Temple would surely protect their safety. What could the army of the Dark Association that Ye Cangtian mentioned do to them?
He couldn't understand why Ye Cangtian, who should understand this, would use this to threaten him.
"The Guangming Temple is very powerful, that's true!"
"But how many forces does the Guangming Temple want to annex, and how much power will it have to protect you alone?"
Ye Cangtian's voice came again, and Lei Hadun was immediately rendered speechless.
What the other party said was correct. During their operations in China, the Guangming Temple had ensnared more than ten forces.
These forces were clearly targets for annexation by the Guangming Temple. If the Guangming Temple made a move against them, their strength would inevitably be dispersed.
At that time, if the Dark Association attacked, even the Guangming Temple might not be able to resist.
Thinking of this, Lei Hadun spoke again, "Mr. Ye, I think we have a great need to talk again. Everything can be discussed."
Hearing this, a smile flickered in Ye Cangtian's eyes. This meant that the other party had understood the reality, compromised, and achieved his goal.
"I'm in the residential area on the main island. If you want to see me, come with sincerity."
After speaking, Ye Cangtian gave the detailed address, then hung up the phone and closed his eyes as if nothing had happened.
...
Dazed, he didn't know how long had passed before Ye Cangtian was woken by a knock on the door.
When he opened the door, he found two people standing outside.
They were both wearing camouflage uniforms. One was Lei Hadun, the leader of the Flash Mercenary Group, and the other was Charlie, Lei Hadun's confidant.
However, Charlie's eyes flashed with a venomous gaze. It went without saying that he still held resentment towards Ye Cangtian's actions before.
"Mr. Ye, I apologize for disturbing you at this hour."
After entering the room, Lei Hadun first made a polite remark, then took out a Qiankun bag and slowly handed it over.
The meaning was very clear: this was the sincerity he had brought.
Seeing the Qiankun bag, Ye Cangtian couldn't help but look at Lei Hadun more closely.
The Flash Mercenary Group still had some substance!
He hadn't known what this Qiankun bag was before entering the Chinese ruins, but the leader of a medium-sized mercenary group had produced it.
This was truly a slap in the face!
Thinking to himself, Ye Cangtian pushed the Qiankun bag back.
He said lightly, "Lei Hadun, you seem to have misunderstood something. The sincerity I spoke of is an attitude, not actual benefits. For example, your subordinate Charlie doesn't seem to have any sincerity!"
Lei Hadun was slightly stunned, while Charlie raised his large hand and pointed directly at Ye Cangtian.
"You!"
In his opinion, Ye Cangtian was deliberately making things difficult for him.
He hadn't said anything when his teeth were kicked out before, and now Ye Cangtian wanted to make things difficult for him again, so he couldn't stand it anymore.
"This is the room I rented. If you have no sincerity, get out!"
"Of course, you can also make a move here, but I want to declare first that you will pay for anything you break, and I will not be responsible for medical expenses!"
Seeing Charlie's angry appearance, Ye Cangtian snorted and said slowly.
He could provide help to the Flash Mercenary Group to resolve their crisis, but first, their attitude had to be correct.
If they continued to treat him as an enemy, then forget it.
He wasn't a masochist, there was no need to flatter someone who was being cold to him!
"Ye Cangtian, you'd better not be too arrogant in front of me!"
"This is the territory of the Flash Mercenary Group. It's not difficult to eliminate you here!"
Hearing Ye Cangtian's words, Charlie immediately became furious.
The other party actually adopted a host-like attitude, which made him very uncomfortable.
"I hate people pointing guns at me, and I hate people shooting at me, but what I hate most is people threatening me!"
"Charlie, you have done all these things in just a few hours."
"Then you can't blame me!"
Ye Cangtian said slowly, his figure already quietly appearing in front of Charlie.
Charlie was immediately greatly alarmed. Since the other party had made a move, he certainly would not stand by and wait for death. He directly drew his dagger and stabbed towards Ye Cangtian.
Bang!
With a loud slap, Charlie's dagger was knocked flying by Ye Cangtian before it could even stab Ye Cangtian's chest.
A trace of blood streaked across the sky, and Charlie was in utter disarray, half of his face rapidly swelling.
Bang!
Before Charlie could let out a roar, another slap sounded.
This time, it was Lei Hadun who made the move.
Lei Hadun was furious. He had come to find Ye Cangtian out of desperation, and had no choice but to bow his head and ask for help.
Originally, Ye Cangtian already had some prejudice against the Flash Mercenary Group, and now Charlie was continuing to offend the other party. How could Ye Cangtian be persuaded to act?
This was equivalent to pushing the Flash Mercenary Group into a fire pit!
"Useless thing, you can't achieve anything but mess things up. If you want to die, don't drag us down!"
"Apologize!"
Lei Hadun's gloomy voice came, and the resentment in Charlie's eyes became even more intense.
To be frank, he had served the Flash Mercenary Group with all his heart and was Lei Hadun's right-hand man. However, such a relationship had changed after Ye Cangtian appeared.
