Chapter 580 (1/2)
580 – Luan Luan and Yuchang taken away, Four Seas Country vying for the Greencloud Continent (3)
The old man’s decision made many people feel incredulous. Qing Shui’s words could be considered overbearing and aggressive, but the old man did not go and crush this young man to bits. Instead he released the two girls they had captured earlier.
Zhan Yuan muddle-headedly left. In Qing Shui’s eyes, there was nothing wrong with the old man’s decision. If it were him, he would do the same thing.
“I am here already, let us just speak openly, there is nothing wrong in wanting to vie for the Greencloud Continent. If there is anything wrong, it would be that you tried to use underhanded means to achieve this.” Qing Shui looked at the reserved face of the old man.
Maybe because he felt that Qing Shui was not ordinary, the old man frowned and said “Since you said this, let’s speak openly, I want to vie for the Greencloud Continent, but that position has been taken by you. Thus, how about we have a battle and not involve our families.” The old man looked at Qing Shui and said slowly.
Qing Shui laughed coldly in his heart. He asked himself if it could be done, but he did not believe the old man across him. He did not seem like an resolute man. Most importantly was that fat youth who called him grandfather, his blood and Qi seemed unstable. It was obvious that he had indulged too much in women and alcohol. If it were not for medicinal pills, he probably would have died at the hands of a woman long ago.
There were also other youths and middle-aged men, most of them had obviously overindulged in women and alcohol. Those who had some strength were fine, at least they had maintained their cultivation.
As for that fat youth, Qing Shui did not intend for him to live beyond today.
“Haha, I can promise you that I won’t kill the innocents. If anything happens to me, I ask that you will honor your promise and let them go safely. I won’t ask for anything more.” Qing Shui did not expect them to honor their promise, but he still had to say these words.
“Very well, I also hope that you will be able to bring them away safely.”
“Father!”
“Father!”
……
The two young girls ran over when they saw Qing Shui. However, at this moment the old man caught hold of Luan Luan and Yuchang and yelled “Zhan Yuan, get them all to withdraw!”
“Father. mother!”
“Luan Luan, Yuchang!” Yiye Jiange could not help but tear up and wanted to run over.
Qing Shui caught hold of Yiye Jiange, this was the first time he saw Yiye Jiange crying. He felt a pain in his heart and hurriedly said: “I’m still here, calm down, nothing will happen.”
Finally, only the three Martial Saints and the old men remained behind. Of which there were less than a hundred remaining. Some of them could not help but lower their heads.
“Qing Shui, since you dared to come, then you must be confident in your battle prowess. My biggest weakness is that I don’t like to take risks and like to use underhanded means. It does not matter what kind of means they are, as long as I can achieve my goals, they are good. I have seen the affection between you and the two girls, I wonder if I can use them as hostages to restrain you.” The old man laughed and looked at Qing Shui, his face had the gleeful look of a person getting away with an evil scheme.
The old man’s earlier words were to test the relationship between Qing Shui and the two girls because him holding on to the two girls was not enough to threaten Qing Shui. The hearts of people who could reach this level were resolute. Only when the two girls appeared, did the old man knew that this plan would be effective.
“Father, don’t bother about us, just kill him. Or else, if anything happens to father, we will not be fine either.” Luan Luan quickly shouted to Qing Shui.
“Haha this young lass is clever and quick-witted, what a pity she is not from my Zhan Clan. What you say counts for nothing.”
“Your plot is indeed effective, what a pity that it is a plan that is used by people with no balls. Just say it, under what conditions will you release my two daughters.” Qing Shui laughed coldly, but his brains were working furiously.
“I do not want to be too demanding, just come forward and let them give you a strike together. You are not allowed to defend or counterattack. After that, I will release your two daughters.” The old man said in an unhurried manner.
“I wonder how reliable your words are, you are really quite cowardly, are you truly not afraid that I would kill your entire Zhan Clan? Even on your deathbed, you want your Zhan Clan to be buried with you? Do you still have the face to meet your Zhan Clan ancestors? What would you say when you meet them?” Qing Shui said these righteous words to fetter the old man’s heart, at his age, this was the matter that they feared the most.
The old man’s expression changed, then resolutely looked at Qing Shui. “I don’t care about that, do you want to see which of your two daughters will be crippled first?”
The old man held up the two young girls by the neck, Qing Shui felt a pain in his heart, he was not even able to conceal it. If Yiye Jiange was not held back by Qing Shui, she would have rushed over long ago.
“Very well, I promise you. However, I hope you will honor your promise. I hope you will not make things difficult for them.” Qing Shui said without a choice.
“Qing Shui, don’t, you will die…” Yiye Jiange now pulled at Qing Shui and shook her head, the staunch woman could no longer control her tears.
“I said before, I would not let anyone bully any of you unless I’m dead. Although I know this is not the best method, I do not want to see you suffer, you cannot do without Luan Luan……”
“But I cannot do without you Qing Shui, you are as important as Luan Luan to me…” At this point, maybe she revealed her true feelings, she would not care about how ambiguous her words were.
“Listen to me this time, in the future I will listen to everything you say!”
“If anything happens to you today, I will accompany you forever. Why do you always make others owe you……”
Qing Shui slowly walked to the front, the two old men beside that old man were already standing not far away waiting for Qing Shui. Qing Shui looked at the Old Man: “I hope you do not make things difficult for them.”
“Do it!”
Two fists struck towards Qing Shui’s chest at the same time, one right, one left. There was a black shadow appearing in the sky, this was the strength of two Martial Saints, Qing Shui submitted to fate and closed his eyes.
Qing Shui seemed to be submitting to fate, but in his heart, he expanded his Spiritual Sense. It was a pity that he could not retaliate, or else Qing Shui was confident that he could kill them with a wave of a hand.
How can one not bow to the circumstances?
Qing Shui never thought that one day he would be threatened by someone, under threats that rendered him helpless. He could meet with a contrived situation, furthermore, he was helpless in the face of crisis.
When he really met such a situation, even though he knew it was wrong, he still had to do it. Just like those situations where he still had to persevere even though he was wrong. It might be rash, but even so, he had to do it.
Minute Subtlety!
Qing Shui used the Minute Subtlety without making any movement or sound!
“Bang Bang!”
“Ka Ka!”
“Pu!”
Qing Shui spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and fell back. The fresh blood was expelled violently, scattering far away. His face was pale, His chest was sunken in, but he still stared closely intentlyat the old man.
“Qing Shui…”
Yiye Jiange could no longer resist it and ran over, hugging Qing Shui, her tears flowing down her delicate face.
“Cough cough, don’t cry, I’m still not dead yet!” Qing Shui coughed out another mouthful of fresh blood.
“If you are a man, then let me hug my two daughters. Surely you are not afraid of a dying man?” Qing Shui weakly said to the old man, anyone could see that he was on the verge of death.
Only Qing Shui knew that when he was injured earlier, the “Rebirth” that he once cultivated appeared once again. In addition to the Minute Subtlety, Qing Shui managed to preserve his life.
“Even if you are not injured what can you do, on account of your stupidity this old man has been moved by you, I shall grant you your wish.”
