Vol 13 Chapter 18 (1/2)

Book 13, Tristar Crescent Abode, Chapter 18 – Treasure Trove

The violet-robed princess glared at Ji Ning Gritting her teeth, she said, “If we die, Xiaoyu dies as well When the master dies, the servants shall not live either!”

Ning instantly felt a loathing for this violet-robed princess, Qi Ruhui However, Ning knew that since the iure with great karmic virtue, that they definitely would firmly fasten her to the sides of the imperial clan Once the imperial clan perished, Qi Xiaoyu would probably truly die as well

Ning shut his eyes

The shi+p beca for his response

The crown prince, Qi Rufeng, waited with nervousness and anticipation “Given hoerful this senior Darknorth is…a hundred years shouldn’t be anything to hi had only lived for a few decades?

Utter stillness!

The crown prince and the princesses were all extremely nervous Qi Xiaoyu felt restless and uneasy as well

Ning suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the crown prince, Qi Rufeng “I agree…to protect you for a year or to kill the Fla Once I complete either of these two conditions, I will take Qi Xiaoyu away”

“This is ree, than you shall release Qi Xiaoyu to me to be my disciple If you refuse, then I’ll kill you and take away your imperial treasures”

“Do you agree or do you refuse?” Ning stared at Qi Rufeng

“Senior, it’s just a hundred…” The crown prince, Qi Rufeng, couldn’t help but begin to argue

“You only need to tellrepeated coldly

The crown prince and the two princesses exchanged glances There were no other options now! If this Daoist Darknorth was to protect theht have a chance for a gaer to occur

“Fine” Qi Rufeng gritted his teeth

Ning nodded lightly This was as he had expected If he didn’t give them any benefit at all, then they probably really would rather die If he gave them at least a little bit…their desire to live would take the upper hand! And in truth, Ning wasn’t planning to actually waste a full year; he would rather just go and kill that Fla!

After killing the Fla, his promise would have been completed

“Then why haven’t you given Qi Xiaoyu her freedo looked at the crown prince

The crown prince couldn’t help but mumble, “Please swear an oath to the Dao of the Heavens to attest to your promise, senior, so as to put us all at ease”

Ning’s face sank, and a true killing intent burst forth from him “It seems you really do wish to die!”

An oath to the Dao of the Heavens was simply too powerful and restrictive; thus, Immortal cultivators definitely would not casually swear any such oath

The crown prince and the princesses could all tell that Ning had truly lost all patience Terrified, the crown prince hurriedly said, “We, we are willing to believe in your promise, senior”

“Qi Xiaoyu, from this day forth, you shall obey the instructions of senior Darknorth There is no longer any connection between you and the i said

Instantly, the ripples of the Dao of the Heavens descended within her subconscious mind Clearly, the oath which Qi Xiaoyu had sworn in the past to the Dao of the Heavens had been fulfilled

Qi Xiaoyu fell to her knees “Xiaoyu shall never forget the benevolence you have shown hness”

Ning, standing to one side, just sighed to himself Qi Xiaoyu truly was quite faithful However…based on what she had told hi had already discovered quite a few suspicious indicators The tribe which Qi Xiaoyu had belonged to as a child had tens of thousands of tribesmen; a tribe like this would rarely be attacked by Diremonsters!

Xiantian-level Direher-level cultivating Direather around thee tribe in which Qi Xiaoyu had lived in as a child was attacked and destroyed Even all of her family had been slain…and then she just so happened to run into an expert of the imperial Qi clan

How could things be so coincidental? The i for their own lives as well; how could such a concidence happen?

“Perhaps the destruction of the tribe which Qi Xiaoyu lived in as a child had so mused silently to himself

Qi Xiaoyu knelt doards Ning as well “His Ihness has instructed Xiaoyu to follow you in the future and listen to your commands”

Ning looked at Qi Xiaoyu, then said, “Reained your freedom You are neither a servant nor a slave; do not act like one” Ning continued, “I have never before taken on a disciple; if you take me as your master, then you shall naturally becoe This is an important matter for you, but also an important matter for , then you , then I will send you off to some other places with Iht over the chance to recruit you”

Ning had his own pride There was no way he would force his very first disciple to accept hie the Crescent world was, he could sireat karmic virtue

In truth, Qi Xiaoyu was extreent She could tell…that the crown prince actually treated her rather indifferently The second princess was a bit better, while the youngest princess actually loathed her The only person in the entire imperial Qi clan who had treated her with sincerity was herFlao
