Chapter 763 The Qiu Clan (2/2)

Zhou Yuan narrowed his eyes, watching the giant palm of Genesis Qi speed over. He was about to frantically retreat when he heard Yi Qiushui softly say, “Don’t worry.”

His eyes flashed, and he stopped, but the Genesis Qi in his body was pulsing like a torrent, ready to erupt.

The giant crystal-like palm, carrying infinite power, slammed down like a mountain.

However, just when that giant palm was only ten feet from Zhou Yuan and Yi Qiushui, an indifferent and old voice echoed across the world, “Qiu Long, you are so powerful and respected, but you came to the city gate to bully a child of our Yi clan?”

Along with the old voice was a scarlet-red arc streaking across the world. There were flames rising from the scarlet arc, and the temperature of the whole world seemed to increase.

Boom!

The scarlet arc directly collided with that giant crystal-like palm. The void trembled violently, and both bloomed like fireworks before finally dissipating under the violent gusts of wind.

Zhou Yuan lifted his head to see two figures standing tall in the air.

In front was an old man with black and white hair. He looked energetic but cold, and beside him was a middle-aged man. Both exuded tremendously powerful Genesis Qi that was not in the slightest weaker than Qiu Long’s.

They were the Heavenly Sun stage elders of the Qiu clan.

At the same time, numerous silhouettes appeared above the city wall.

The people in Xuanzhou City were finally aware of the movement at the city gate.

However, no one tried to intervene or calm things down. The atmosphere in Xuanzhou City was very strange. The position of Prefecture Lord had been left empty ever since the head of the Yi clan had died in the Thousand Beast Mountain Range. Both the Qiu and Yi families had called on all their friends, causing all kinds of open and secret fights, thereby turning the situation in Xuanzhou City extremely lively.

Qiu Long wrinkled his brows when he saw the old man with black and white hair. That old guy of the Yi clan came really fast.

“So it’s elder Qianji.

“I have already said that I am not targeting niece Qiushui and that I have come for the beast that killed my son. My son died tragically. Must the Yi clan intervene in my revenge?”

Yi Qiushui’s beautiful eyes turned icy cold. “Qiu Yang attempted to kidnap Dong’er, so he brought it on himself!”

“Nonsense, niece Qiushui. Don’t think that because my child is dead, you can besmirch his name like that.”

He cast a glance at Yi Qianji in midair and said indifferently, “Elder Qianji, I am also very upset that Prefecture Lord Yi died in the Thousand Beast Mountain Range. These days, my Qiu clan has done our best to stabilise Xuanzhou City, and there haven’t been any troubles so far. Hasn’t my Qiu clan given enough face to the Yi clan already?

“If your Yi clan wants to let my son die tragically because of an irrelevant person, then that means you look down on us and think your clan is superior. Even though your Yi clan has a stronger background than our Qiu clan, we will not let you trample on us like this.

“If the Yi clan doesn’t hand over that person, my Qiu clan will have no choice but to fight your Yi clan.”

Qiu Long’s voice rang throughout the city, falling into the ears of all the forces in Xuanzhou City, and immediately sent a chill down many an expert’s spine.

The Yi clan and the Qiu clan had been competing for the position of Prefecture Lord of Xiaoxuan Prefecture during this period of time, but in the end they hadn’t completely torn each other’s faces. Many people knew that this was because the Qiu clan lacked the means and reason to compete for Prefecture Lord.

But now, the death of a child of the Qiu clan was the best excuse for Qiu Long to rise in revolt unless the Yi clan hands over Qiu Yang’s killer and therefore eases the situation.

Standing in midair, Yi Qianji wrinkled his brows, understanding Qiu Long’s intention. He was faced with a difficult choice. He knew that if they refuse to listen to Qiu Long, a battle between the Yi clan and the Qiu clan would truly break out.

But his Yi clan wasn’t fully prepared for this.

While Yi Qianji was in deep thoughts, Yi Qiushui slowly stepped forward under countless watchful gazes. She looked directly at Qiu Long with her bright eyes, and her soft and resolute voice rang throughout the city.

“You really think I don’t know what your Qiu clan is planning? No matter how your Qiu clan wants to fight, I will represent the Yi clan to accept it!

“But, if you want me to surrender a person, no way!”
