My Waste Husband
Chapter 1236

Chapter 1236

Seeing such a scene, Eurydice subconsciously took a step back.

"What's going on?!"

Jacindo's face, which was hidden under the bamboo hat, suddenly changed.

The corpses lying in the granary were exactly the men they had arranged in the city.

"Hurry up and leave!" Jacindo immediately turned around, about to leave.

"Leave? Can you get away? Haha, the disciple of Chu hides his strength well. If we hadn't come across this place by accident, we really wouldn't know. How dare you enter the city, aren't you afraid of dying here?"

A loud laugh came from behind the three people.

Then, several figures suddenly appeared behind the three people. They moved quickly and surrounded the three people, completely cutting off their escape routes.

A face of a man in his thirties appeared in their sight. The man was not tall, about 1.7 metres in height. On the man's left cheek, there was a scar that looked particularly ferocious.

The man was wielding a golden scimitar, and the tip of the scimitar was still dripping with blood. Clearly, the people in the granary had been killed using this scimitar.

Jacindo frowned. "TrahernCui? When did you become a flunky of the Colver Family?"

"A flunky? Don't speak so harshly! We do this business. Naturally, whoever offers us the most money, we will work for him.¹' Trahern, who was holding a golden scimitar, stepped forward.

"Jacindo, I haven't seen you for a long time. You used to call me uncle obediently. Now you call me by my name?"

Jacindo took off his bamboo hat and looked around with a serious face. There were no less than 20 people behind Trahern. It was difficult to break out of the siege. If it were only him, he would be fine. Even if he was seriously injured, it would be possible for him to run out. But his junior sister was still here. More importantly, he brought Syl, a good-for-nothing. Under this situation, he would be a big burden!

Jacindo took a deep breath and said, "Trahern, go ahead, what should we do to get out? What do you want?"

"Haha, smart boy." Trahern laughed loudly. "We've found your granary. If we were to capture someone and hand him over, the Lord of Eastern City would at least give me a thousand gold coins as a reward. You can double it. I'll pretend that this has never happened. What do you think?"

Jacindo shook his head and said, "I can't take out the money for the time being."

"Then there's nothing much to say." Trahern turned his wrist. The golden scimitar reflected its light under the sunlight.

The people around them were also approaching Jacindo and the other two.

"Trahern, we can talk!" Jacindo reached out his hand. "You are not a member of the Colver Family, there is no need for you to get into such a mess with our Chu Family. I think, in your line of work, you should understand that one more friend means one more path, right? We can definitely find some solution."

"Oh?" Trahern stopped walking. "Then tell me, how can we get in a win-win situation?"

"It's very simple." A trace of pain appeared on Jacindo's face. He stretched out his hand and forcefully pulled at his waist. A jade pendant was pulled down by Jacindo. "I don't have enough money now, but I can give this jade pendant to you. This jade pendant contains the energy of a Divine Realm expert. It can block three attacks from Divine Realm experts. I think that it should be worth a little bit of money." "Divine Realm?" Trahern narrowed his eyes and licked his lips, revealing a look of desire.

"That's right." Jacindo nodded. "This thing is worth a little bit of money. You should know that with my strength and the help of this jade pendant, you might not be able to stop me. If you really want to start a war with my Chu Family, it won't be a good thing for you."

The tip of the scimitar in Trahern's hand constantly touched the ground. "The jade is a good thing, but it's not worth so much money. I think it's better for me to take my thousand gold coins. As for whether you can escape or not, I want to see it."

"You're wrong." Jacindo stared at Trahern and shook his head. "You can also get your gold coins. As for what I've given you, take another look. We have three people here, so you don't have to bring all three of us back. You can also get the reward from the Colver Family if you bring one back. What do you think?"

Trahern was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter. "Hahahaha! Jacindo, ah, Jacindo! No wonder people say that although you are the youngest among Placido's four personal disciples, you are the most ruthless one. Tell me, which one do you want to leave to me?"

"Him." Jacindo did not hesitate at all. He pointed at Henry and said, "He's yours. What do you think?"

"This kid looks unfamiliar." Trahern narrowed his eyes.

"You know the rules of Eastern City," said Jacindo. "The stranger a person is in our Chu Family, the higher the price they offer."

Henry stood there, listening to Jacindo make a deal with Trahern without any hesitation.

As for Eurydice, from the moment when Jacindo decided to give up on Henry, she did not look at Henry again.

Trahern pondered for a few seconds, thought for a moment, and then nodded. "Well, I accept your proposal. I will take this guy back and report. You can leave now."

"Many thanks!" said Jacindo as he cupped his fists in thanks. He then put on his bamboo hat and turned to look at Eurydice. "Let's go!" he said.

As his voice fell, Jacindo and Eurydice disappeared. When they were out of the encirclement brought by Trahern, a jade pendant was flung far away by Jacindo. The two of them didn't hesitate for even the slightest bit and left.

Trahern waved his hand to accept the jade pendant. He looked at it with satisfaction and then put it into his chest pocket. He ordered Henry to put on the rack. "Let's go and get the reward. We'll arrange two girls for each of us tonight. Hahaha!" Trahern let out a hearty laugh.

Two of Trahern's men came over to push Henry. "Behave yourself, let's go!"

Henry looked at Trahern and the others up and down. From the conversation between them just now, Henry could tell that Trahern and the others should be the natives. They had no standpoint and were doing the work of bounty hunters. They would work for the one who offered the most money.

"Why are you standing there? Move!" Once again, someone pushed Henry's back and was going to take him to the Colver Family to report on the completion of his mission.

Henry was not afraid of anything. Even if he did not have such strength, he would not receive any different treatment in the Colver Family. It was a change of place to conceal his identity.

But now, Henry suddenly had another idea.

Henry had been immersed in the concept of division of the Eastern Continent by Cayetano since he entered the Recluse World, but he ignored a very important problem, which was the natives here.

Now, Henry knew that the Recluse Association would secretly make trouble for him. If he inquired about these things from several major forces, he would definitely be noticed. Henry suddenly came up with the idea. Why wouldn't the natives here help him expand the intelligence network?

As a person who struggled from the bottom, Henry knew very well that the intimacy level with the natives of a single place was beyond imagination! If it was properly used, then it would be much more terrifying than several great powers!
