The elf wanted to lie down, but I was forced to reach the peak of my life.

"We are not good people, so why should we be aboveboard? If something can be easily done, don't make it complicated." The other party continued to jokingly say. "But you, do you know what stupid thing you did?"

"You actually let the phantom elf run away. I thought you were going to capture it! This is an elf that tens of thousands of rich people dream of! Do you know how much it's worth?"

"I don't want to know. I'm different from you." Xiaohui said coldly. He had nothing to say to this bunch of profit-seeking villains.

"It is human nature to seek profit and avoid harm, and greed is human instinct! We are all the same, and I don't think I'm wrong." The other party said complacently.

"I'm sorry I can't agree with that." Xiaohui has already prepared himself mentally and knows what he is about to face.

"Your bag is full of junk. There's nothing useful in it, so I asked my men to help you sort it out."

Following the other person's gaze to the left, the boy saw his shoulder bag lying quietly on the ground, dirty, with several footprints on it, and the things inside were scattered all over the ground, thrown everywhere, and all of them were destroyed without exception.

Xiaohui felt a little uncomfortable seeing his things being treated like this, and a feeling of anger surged in his heart.

"Your little eagle should be able to sell for some money. You are quite capable to be able to tame such an elf. It is so powerful and rare. It is really enviable." The other party continued to chat with Xiaohui and did not seem to be panicked at all.

"Are you a chatterbox? You talk a lot? Do you know there's a saying that villains die because of their talkativeness? So let's stop talking nonsense here." Xiaohui said with a look of disgust.

"Well, I won't beat around the bush. Tell me where you hid it. Maybe I can let you go if I'm so inclined."

"Where do you think I should hide it? It hates humans so much, will it listen to me? Your IQ is a bit low." Xiaohui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Even if he really knew it, how could he possibly say it out loud? If he told it out, he would really die. How could these guys keep their word?

Once the other party knows that you are useless, they will definitely try to silence you, and then you will be dead for sure.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it. We have plenty of time and we will definitely make you speak." The other party smiled maliciously.

"Don't waste your time, it's gone."

Xiaohui knew that no matter what he said, these guys would not believe him. They were very cunning and suspicious by nature.

"To be honest, I don't want to be violent towards a child. I hope you won't force me." As he spoke, the other party released the ancient elven sickle helmet.

"No matter how many times I say it, it's no longer here." The boy knew he could not escape the torture and he regretted getting involved in this matter.

"How could you bear to let it go? It's a phantom spirit, how could you not be tempted?"

"Whether I am moved or not is different from whether it saves me." To be honest, Xiaohui would not seek trouble since this phantom elf has such a bad temper.

"What a brave warrior who draws his sword to help others when he sees injustice. I'm starting to like you a little bit. But do you know that there's a price to pay for being brave and righteous?" The other party gestured to the man in the sickle helmet.

The man with the sickle helmet put the sickle on Xiaohui's neck, leaving a shallow mark, and blood gradually seeped out.

"Where did you learn such immature remarks? There's no need to scare me." Xiaohui was calm, but he was actually very scared. If the sickle had gone a little deeper, he would have probably died.

"It's interesting. You are quite tough. I've seen many tough-talking adults get so scared when a knife is put to their necks that they piss and shit and confess everything. How come you still have the mood to chat with me?" The other person looked at the boy with interest and couldn't help laughing.

"There's no point in you doing this."

"Really? That's hard to say."

After saying that, the other party asked his men to take out the loudspeaker and start tuning the sound.

"Keldeo, I tell you solemnly now, if you don't show up in five minutes, the boy who just saved you will definitely die because of you!" The leading man in black shouted, and he tried to transmit his voice to every corner of the calcium carbide cave by turning the loudspeaker to maximum power.

"From now on, it's not just talk." The man in black looked at the young man and grinned evilly.

"It must be very painful..." Xiaohui's face looked very ugly.

"Scythe Helmet, take action!" The other party snapped his fingers and gave the order coldly.

"Ah——" Xiaohui couldn't help but scream out in pain. The sickle pierced his abdomen gently, and blood kept flowing out...

The sound of screams also came out through the loudspeaker.

"Did you hear that? I'm not bluffing. Of course, you can just pretend you didn't hear anything and just run away regardless of his life or death."

"It won't come...you'd better give up..." Xiaohui said with difficulty, his voice becoming smaller and smaller because of the pain.

"This is just the beginning. If it doesn't appear, I will torture you bit by bit until you die. This process will be long and painful." The other party hoped that Xiaohui would scream out of fear, which would have a better effect.

"Really..." Xiaohui gasped with difficulty. Although he was tortured by severe pain, he remained neither humble nor arrogant, which made the man in black feel irritated.

"Don't you know what fear is? Now that the Mushroom is interested in you, it must want to eat you." The other party looked at Xiaohui and said viciously, removing all disguises and looking a little exasperated.

“Why don’t you stab me again? Don’t worry, I will avoid the vital parts. You won’t die for the time being, but you will inevitably feel pain.” The other party smiled and held the loudspeaker, ready to let Scythe Helmet stab again.

Now he really understood what it felt like to be in excruciating pain. Xiaohui couldn't help but tremble. If only he hadn't meddled in other people's business, he should have been lying comfortably at home, waiting for his mother to come back and eat the delicious meal she had prepared.

"Let him go! It's me you are looking for!" At the critical moment, Keldeo followed the voice and came over. After all, it did not leave and rushed over as soon as it heard the voice.

"Hey, hey, hey, look who's here? Not bad, it seems you still have some feelings. Since you are so affectionate and loyal, there is no way I will let him go. I have to make good use of him." The leading black man showed a disgusting smile.

"You--" Keldeo's anger burned fiercely, and he decided to fight with all his might and not let these villains get away with it.

Elves are simple after all... Xiaohui was a little happy, but also very worried. He felt conflicted at this moment.

"Do you want to win over this phantom spirit by playing the emotional card? It's working for the time being. It's willing to risk its life for you."
