371: Chapter 371 The Plan Changes as Wu Jing is Captured 371: Chapter 371 The Plan Changes as Wu Jing is Captured No matter when, as long as Xiang Yu was there, Tie Zhuzi felt very reassured.

He didn’t have to consider anything else; he just had to follow Xiang Yu’s commands.

Even at such a tense moment like now, in Tie Zhuzi’s view, it was just entertainment.

Time ticked by, second by second.

Two hours had passed with no news from Wu Jing.

Although Xiang Yu appeared calm on the surface, he was extremely anxious inside.

Meanwhile, Tie Zhuzi at his side was about to fall asleep.

Suddenly, a burst of gunfire erupted from within the mountains.

The shots were dense, sounding like a firefight.

Tie Zhuzi had been on the verge of sleep but quickly sat up after hearing the gunfire, then looked at Xiang Yu with some seriousness.

Wu Jing and Xiao Xuan were the ones who had charged in, and the gunfire was very likely aimed at them.

At that moment, Xiang Yu’s phone lit up; Shi Jian was calling, apparently he had also heard the shots.

“Should we rush in?” Shi Jian asked.

“Stay put right there.

If we rush in rashly, we’re likely to suffer a complete wipeout,” Xiang Yu pressed down the sliver of nervousness in his heart and said.

If something happened to Wu Jing and Xiao Xuan, he would never forgive himself.

Just then, out of the darkness ahead, a figure rushed out.

The person moved quickly and in an instant appeared before Xiang Yu.

It was Xiao Xuan.

“Brother, Wu Jing has been captured by them,” Xiao Xuan said nervously.

Hearing this, Xiang Yu quickly straightened up and then looked at Xiao Xuan, “How was he captured, and what was the gunfire just now about?”

“The gunfire came from another group of people.

It’s like they knew we were coming and had set up an ambush there.

When Wu Jing got close, suddenly more than a dozen people rushed out and surrounded him,” Xiao Xuan said.

At that time, he had been following Wu Jing, staying on alert not far behind.

By the time he realized something was off in their surroundings, it was too late.

If the opponents had been few in number, Xiao Xuan could have charged in instantly, taking them by surprise to neutralize the threat.

But there were more than a dozen of them, all armed.

One careless move would not only fail to rescue Wu Jing but could also put him in harm.

Xiao Xuan didn’t dare to act recklessly and quickly returned.

Xiang Yu’s mind was somewhat in chaos right now, but the more chaotic it became, the more he needed to stay calm.

He had a contingency plan for this kind of situation.

He hurriedly took out his mobile phone and called Shi Jian.

The phone had barely connected when Shi Jian picked up.

“Get the brothers and pull back quickly.

There’s been a change in the situation,” Xiang Yu said sternly.

Shi Jian did not ask any further and, with Long Zaitian and five others, quickly made their way over.

“What’s going on?” Shi Jian asked with a nervous face.

“Wu Jing’s been caught in an ambush.

We’ll fall back first and then discuss,” Xiang Yu finished speaking and led the group away from there, heading towards where they had parked.

“Shouldn’t we just rush in?” Shi Jian asked with some urgency.

He was usually the calmest one, but now that Wu Jing had been captured, he was also beginning to lose his composure.

“I agree, Brother Yu, let me take five men and rush in,” Tie Zhuzi urged.

Now everyone was looking at Xiang Yu, uncertain about what decision to make.

Just then, Xiang Yu’s phone screen suddenly lit up; someone was calling.

Xiang Yu picked it up and saw to his surprise that it was Wu Jing’s number; his first instinct was that the call came from the other side.

Xiang Yu took the phone to one side, and then pressed the answer button.

He held the phone without speaking, just standing there silently.

The other side was silent as well.

Finally, someone on the end could no longer bear the silence and said, “You must be the older brother of that handsome guy, right?

Your brother is in my hands now.

If you want him back, you come in alone.

If you don’t come, I’ll skin him alive.

One cut at a time—for half an hour, you decide for yourself.”

The person finished speaking and then let out a chilling laugh, the kind that sends shivers down one’s spine.

After laughing, they quickly hung up the phone.

“Brother Yu, what should we do?” Tie Zhuzi said, somewhat impatiently.

“Xiaoxuan stays, the rest of you go back to the hotel,” Xiang Yu tried to keep his tone calm.

Everyone was stunned.

They had come here with great fanfare, and now not only had they failed to rescue their comrade, but they had also lost another.

How could they just leave like this?

“Xiang Yu, what do you mean, just go back like this?” Shi Jian asked unwillingly.

They were all tough men who would rather bleed or die here than retreat, especially when their brother was still captured.

“Brother Yu…” Tie Zhuzi also didn’t understand why Xiang Yu was asking them to go back.

Normally he was the one who listened to Xiang Yu the most, but now he was reluctant.

“Listen to me, go back first,” Xiang Yu inhaled deeply and said in an undertone.

“Xiang Yu, we…”

“Go back!” Before Shi Jian could finish, Xiang Yu practically roared.

None of them had ever seen Xiang Yu so terrifying, especially Shi Jian.

He never regarded himself as Xiang Yu’s underling, but as his brother.

Naturally, Xiang Yu felt the same way.

They were relaxed and happy together, and no matter what difficulties they faced, Xiang Yu always appeared carefree, at most his expression would turn serious.

But today was different; today, madness was written all over Xiang Yu’s face.

He had the feeling that if he didn’t listen now, he might be killed in the next moment.

Of course, this was just his illusion; Xiang Yu would never harm them.

“I understand,” Shi Jian nodded and then led the way to the car.

The others didn’t speak and followed into the car, their spirits low.

They had planned to fight a big battle, and the outcome was incredibly frustrating.

Standing in front of Xiang Yu and with a look of grievance, Tie Zhuzi said, “Brother Yu, if something happens to you, I’ll join you.”

Tie Zhuzi wasn’t joking.

If something truly happened to Xiang Yu, he would avenge him at all costs, even if it cost him his life.

Seeing them all in the car, Xiang Yu was quite emotional.

Having these brothers in life was more than enough.

When Xiaoxuan saw the car drive away, he finally turned to Xiang Yu and asked, “Bro, shall we go in?”

Xiang Yu looked at Xiaoxuan and shook his head, his eyes complicated.

“Xiaoxuan, up to now, I still don’t know your full name.

I was hoping you would tell me yourself,” Xiang Yu sighed and continued, “I know you’ve buried many things in your heart.

If you can’t get out today, you’ll have to rely on yourself in the future.”

“Bro, don’t talk like that.

I’ll accompany you through thick and thin,” Xiaoxuan said, moved by Xiang Yu’s tone, which sounded like he was making final arrangements.

Xiaoxuan’s current situation was entirely due to Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu took him and Zhang Hongbo out, setting him on this path, and at the same time, he saw a glimmer of hope for revenge.

“Stop being foolish, promise me, if I really don’t make it back this time, take care of Zhuzi for me.

That kid often gets into trouble if he isn’t watched closely,” Xiang Yu said with a sudden shake of his head and a smile, thinking of Tie Zhuzi.

“He’s a stubborn donkey who only listens to you; he doesn’t pay attention to anyone else.

Bro, better you come back and look after him yourself, I can’t watch him,” Xiaoxuan said…
