Chapter 2264 Surrender

Elder Xiao, who was eager to make a contribution, would not show any mercy. As soon as he made a move, he aimed at Grandpa Gu.

Grandpa Gu was shocked when he saw this: "Come and protect me!"

From Elder Xiao, Grandpa Gu felt the threat and pressure. Although Grandpa Gu had not had much contact with Elder Xiao before, he had heard that this was a super master who was much stronger than him and far beyond his reach.

Although Grandpa Gu was the head of the Gu family, his strength was not too strong. Not every head of a family had super strength like Grandpa Liu. Grandpa Gu was such a person.

Therefore, when he found that Elder Xiao wanted to attack him, Grandpa Gu panicked!

Hearing Grandpa Gu's order, four or five children of the Gu family immediately surrounded him and stood in front of Grandpa Gu, wanting to protect him.

However, seeing this scene, Elder Xiao just sneered and didn't take it seriously. He just slapped a few times, and before he arrived, the Gu family members standing in front of Old Man Gu were already slapped away. When Elder Xiao landed, there was no obstacle between him and Old Man Gu.

Seeing this, Old Man Gu was shocked and subconsciously wanted to escape. However, before he turned around, Elder Xiao locked his breath and directly lifted him up.

"Let me go! Let me go!" Old Man Gu didn't care about his face or maintaining his dignity in front of his own children, and shouted loudly in fear.

Elder Xiao ignored him, stepped lightly with his feet, and returned to Liu Yan'er.

Bang!

The struggling Old Man Gu was thrown directly in front of Liu Yan'er by Elder Xiao.

Old Man Gu looked up and looked at Liu Yan'er in front of him, with a complicated expression and fear in his anger.

"Let your people surrender." Liu Yan'er looked down at Mr. Gu and said.

Mr. Gu's face kept changing when he heard this.

He never thought that he was still full of vigor and ambition yesterday, but today he has ended up like this, and all this is just because he chose the Liu family as the target of annexation.

Obviously, he chose the wrong target and offended the wrong people, which led to the current situation.

Mr. Gu really regretted it, but it was obvious that Liu Yan'er would not give him a chance to regret it, and Mr. Liu would not either. He had to pay for his choice.

Mr. Gu did not want to surrender, at least he did not want to surrender to Liu Yan'er. Even though Liu Yan'er was now the head of the Qingyu League, in Mr. Gu's heart, he always felt that Liu Yan'er was just a junior. He did not really take Liu Yan'er seriously. Now he was asked to surrender to a junior, he could not accept it.

But if he could not accept it, what could he do?

To put it bluntly, Liu Yan'er was kind to them by letting them surrender. According to the situation on the scene, if Liu Yan'er did not accept their surrender, the rest of their Gu family would die here. Now Liu Yan'er gave them a chance to surrender, which gave them a chance to survive and spared their lives.

Since they were all arrested, Mr. Gu would not think that the rest of the people could turn the tables. Surrender was their only choice.

However, once they chose to surrender, it would mean that their Gu family was finished. Although not all the people died, they would definitely be removed from the imperial capital. In the future, there would be no place for their Gu family in the imperial capital. They would either be driven out of the imperial capital or annexed by the Liu family. There would be no third situation.

For the ambitious Mr. Gu, these two situations were difficult for him to accept. No matter which result, he would withdraw from the stage of history and would not have the opportunity to play.

But, is it okay not to surrender?

Old Master Gu looked at Liu Yan'er, and then at the aggressive disciples of the Qingyu League around him. He knew very well what the consequences would be if he refused.

Once he refused, there would be no need to wait until later. Tonight, their Gu family would be destroyed.

And surrendering would at least give them a chance to survive.

Well, after all, it was his own wrong choice that caused all this, so let him bear the responsibility.

Old Master Gu sighed deeply in his heart and said in a deep voice: "All the children of the Gu family, give up resistance immediately."

Old Master Gu's words were heard by every child of the Gu family at the scene. There was almost no hesitation. All the children of the Gu family obeyed this order. They were not stupid. They knew very well that continuing to resist would only lead to death in the current situation. Even if Old Master Gu did not speak, many of them had already thought of surrendering. At this moment, hearing what Old Master Gu said, how could they still hesitate?

"Master Liu, this matter was my decision. I am willing to bear all the consequences. Please let my Gu family members live." Grandpa Gu said to Liu Yan'er. As he spoke, the way Grandpa Gu addressed Liu Yan'er had completely changed.

Liu Yan'er neither agreed nor refused, but said: "Notify those Gu family members who went to my Liu family to stop the attack immediately and surrender to my Liu family."

"Okay!"

This time, Grandpa Gu did not hesitate at all. Since he had thought it through, he naturally would not think about it anymore.

Afterwards, Grandpa Gu personally contacted Gu Mingzhong and asked him to surrender to the Liu family.

"What? Let me surrender to the Liu family?" Gu Mingzhong asked in surprise on the other side of the phone.

Before that, Gu Mingzhong had received a call for help from Mr. Gu, but after receiving the call, Gu Mingzhong did not return immediately, but fell into hesitation.

On the one hand, they paid a great price to have the current situation. Seeing that the Liu family was about to be breached, he really couldn't accept giving up at this time.

But on the other hand, he knew that the people left behind in his family were also anxious after being attacked by the Qingyu League. If the family was sacrificed, even if they took down the Liu family, it would not be a victory. At that time, they would be homeless. Some people from other forces inside and outside the imperial capital would not miss this opportunity and would definitely take advantage of their Gu family.

Moreover, although they seemed to be about to break through the defense line of the Liu family, it was really hard to say when they could break through. After the reinforcements, the morale of the Liu family was obviously improved a lot, and the will to resist was more determined. At the same time, those people behind them were still attacking them. It was hard to say whether they could break through the defense line of the Liu family before the other party broke through their own defense line.

Therefore, Gu Mingzhong didn't know how to make a decision at this moment and was hesitating.

What Gu Mingzhong didn't expect was that he received such a call before he made a decision.
