Chapter: 707 (2/2)
Qing Shui thought that it was better to take action earlier. Otherwise they would need to personally go to the Luo Clan and he didn’t want to waste too much time here.
He didn’t say anything else for that night!
The next day, Qing Shui cultivated as usual and had his meal. Two people came in from outside when he had just finished eating. They were from the Hai Clan and seemed to be in a great hurry.
“Miss, Mister, the Old Ancestor of Hai Clan has requested for your return to settle some issues,” the two youths informed with a bow.
“Understood. You all may return first.”
It was very normal for this to happen and Qing Shui had already expected it. For the Luo Clan to come to Hai Clan today, the contradictions between them would definitely intensify. This was also what they were hoping for.
“We should return. Perhaps this issue can be completely resolved by today.” Qing Shui laughed to Hai Dongqing as he stood up.
Hai Dongqing’s heart was a mess though. Things had already turned out this way, she could only trust this man beside her. To be honest, she actually secretly had a lot of faith in him.
“Alright!” She smiled and walked out of this small courtyard with Qing Shui by her side.
Luo Clan!
“What did you say?! Luo tong and the other four of them still haven’t return until now?” The clan’s head of Luo Clan roared in rage
“Yes, Clan Head!”
“Get my second younger brother here. Hurry,” Luo Clan’s clan head raised his voice. He was extremely furious right now.
“R-Roger!”
The terrified voice faded away. Soon after that, an old man entered the room. This old man was the second younger brother of Luo Clan’s Head. He appeared to be a very old and very easy-going person.
“Big Brother!”
The old man greeted when he saw Luo Clan’s Head, who looked a lot younger than him.
“Second Younger Brother, none from Luo Tong’s party came back. Our intel has found nothing other than the pavilion of that Hai Clan’s woman has collapsed,” the man gestured for the old man to have a seat.
“It seems like they’re all dead. Big Brother, I feel a little strange about that youth. We mustn’t fail in an easy task,” the old man said prudently after thinking for awhile.
“This has been my concern. But I must get my hands on that woman of Hai Clan. I cannot wait any longer.” The man frowned in his thoughts, both of his eyes were gleaming with determination.
The old man sighed but didn’t say anything else.
“I have already sent someone to fetch that woman of Hai Clan. If they can’t bring her back, then we’ll take action,” the man told the old man.
“Big Brother. If that woman of Hai Clan isn’t brought back here today, then Big Brother may let the Tu Clan to take action first. But they mustn’t hurt that woman.” The old man’s aged and amiable gaze instantly turned as sharp as a knife at this moment.
“Alright. If the Tu Clan isn’t going to do anything, we shall force them,” the man grinned at the old man. At this very moment, the pair of brother looked surprisingly similar to each other. They were both stern, vicious and ruthless.
………
When Qing Shui and Hai Dongqing reached to the entrance of the Hai Residence, they saw about ten lavish beast carriages that were decorated with flowers. The middle carriage was fully decorated with colorful fresh flowers and looked extremely gorgeous. Many people surrounded them, and they seemed to know what was going on.
A decorated carriage!
This was a decorated carriage. The very same sort that people drove during weddings in the Main Continent!
Hai Dongqing’s face paled a little when she saw these decorated carriages. But still, she walked towards the Hai Residence without stopping. Qing Shui on the other hand was still staring at the decorated carriages while following her towards the Hai Residence.
The moment they entered they saw many people from the Hai Clan and Luo Clan standing in the courtyard. Both parties appeared to be engaged in some kind of discussion. Old Hai Tian was seated at one side while the people of the Luo Clan were all standing.
Qing Shui could feel that this Hai Tian old man seemed to have quite a temper. He didn’t know how long the Luo Clan had been here but both parties seemed to be fighting over something right now.
“So this is how your Hai Clan treats your guests?” An old man yelled towards Hai Tian.
Qing Shui could understand his anger. After all, the people of the Luo Clan had always been treated as guests of honor everywhere they went. Besides, the Luo Clan was also the most powerful clan in the Cold Ice City while the Hai Clan had waned in power long ago and they were actually slighting them like this.
“You are not our guests. If this old man was still well, I would have driven you all out by now, you bunch of shameless fools,” Hai Tian relentlessly insulted them.
“Wait till we bring that woman away, you all can go die after three days,” the old man muttered under his breath to dissolve the anger in his heart.
“The young miss has returned!”
“Fourth Brother, that woman is back. Let us talk to her directly and see if she’s willing? We are still going to use her family to threaten her too,” a younger man suggested to an older man who appeared to be in his sixties.
Everyone’s attention instantly shifted to Hai Dongqing and Qing Shui.
Hai Dongying, Hai Shiya and the rest walked towards them.
Hai Tian stood up but his body quivered after taking a few steps, as if he was enduring great pain. His aging face was also extremely pale.
“How did this old man sustain such a heavy injuryin one night?” Qing Shui was quite perplexed. He then glanced over at Hai Dongqing.
