Xue Ying poured some wine then brought it in front of Forefather Golden Firmament. “How about we grab a drink first. This wine is one of the specialties from my hometown, the Xia Clan world, and its name is Hundred Fruit Wine. It is brewed with utmost care, and has an unique flavour.”
Forefather Golden Firmament eventually took up cup of wine and drank a mouthful. “It’s rather ordinary, but it indeed has a taste unique to the material realm.”
Xue Ying continued with a laugh, “Forefather, did you not ask whether I would wish to avenge my wife? Haha, if I, Dong Bo Xue Ying, had my teacher’s combat power, I really might have just exterminated you in a fit of anger!”
“Oh?” Forefather Golden Firmament noticed his expression visibly sink.
“However, I unfortunately do not possess such combat power.” Xue Ying chuckled. “Forefather, your being in a bad mood is very understandable, but if you were to think this matter through, I’m sure you would become aware that my wife is purely innocent. She had no intention to go against forefather back then, and did not dare fight you. It’s a pity that we can’t go back in time to save her from being forced to reincarnate…”
Forefather Golden Firmament listened on with a sunken expression.
He had to acknowledge that, from Jing Qiu’s perspective, she was indeed wronged. She had essentially been forced onto a path of no return, and eventually had to choose a path equivalent to death—reincarnation!
“Do you think that I, Dong Bo Xue Ying, am not angry? That I would have forgotten this enmity? Forefather, would you believe that to be true?” Xue Ying looked at Forefather Golden Firmament.
“Go ahead and act out your vengeance, then.” Forefather Golden Firmament sneered. “Though I’m afraid you don’t have the necessary combat power.”
“My wife has reincarnated successfully, and it was that which brought her close to me. From a different perspective, this could be my fate with her, and karma with you.” Xue Ying chuckled. “Neither of us has the means to deal with the other, so why not just take a step back? This enmity can be resolved now. Forefather, in the future, you are not to deal with any of the people from my Monarch Residence. Of course, fro the same reason, I will also take a step back and forego any attempts to deal with you.”
Forefather Golden Firmament frowned. “Oh? And what if I don’t want to take a step back?”
Xue Ying continued pouring wine into the cups as he indifferently replied, “The only outcome would be the two of us becoming enemies!”
While he seemed indifferent on the surface, his tone also had a cold sharpness.
Xue Ying would not be afraid of handling matters!
In terms of combat power, he was slightly above Forefather Golden Firmament.
In terms of background, his teacher, the Bloodshed God Emperor, was ranked first on the Cosmos Deity-Demon List, which meant he was much stronger than Pang Yi. Furthermore, the Bamboo Mountain Prefecture Master owed him a huge favor, while Paragon Huo Cheng was his life-and-death brother. Even if the forefather wished for them to become enemies, Xue Ying had no reason to fear him.
“Come.” Xue Ying finished pouring the wine and pushed another cup towards Forefather Golden Firmament. “As we drink this wine, let us resolve our enmity and stop tangling in each other’s business.”
Forefather Golden Firmament looked at Xue Ying, who stared straight back.
“Hahaha…” Forefather Golden Firmament finally let out a laugh. “Alright! The only thing I can say now is that the Mysterious Star Sword Lady has indeed found a good husband after reincarnating!” Having said these words, he raised his cup of wine.
Xue Ying also revealed a grin and picked up his own cup.
The two then drank at the same time.
“Since this matter is concluded, I’ll be taking my leave first.” Forefather Golden Firmament stood up.
“My wife has already gained some understanding towards the Heart Sword Diagram relic. Once her comprehension reaches a sufficiently high level, she will naturally pass the part she understood over to you, forefather,” Xue Ying said, then stood up.
Hearing these words, Forefather Golden Firmament looked towards Xue Ying then nodded. “Alright. At that point, I’ll also be sending back some of the parts I’ve comprehended related to the Heart Sword Diagram.”
And with these final words, Forefather Golden Firmament turned around and left.
