Chapter: 977 (2/2)
Zu Yanglong had completely lost all hope. His cultivation was gone and his grandfather was dead. This time around, with the trouble he had gotten into the Ji Clan would probably not let him go either.
“You’re able to call the shots?” Qing Shui looked at the old man and asked calmly.
“I am Ji Wutong. I’m here to represent General Manor to have a talk with you. I’ll definitely let you be satisfied.” The old man looked at Qing Shui and smiled.
“Oh. This General Inn belongs to General Manor right? Have it torn down tomorrow.” Qing Shui looked at General Inn and then at the old man before speaking.
Ji Wutong’s mouth twitched, “Mister, do you think that we can look for another means…”
“These few people drugged me and held evil intentions for my women. What do you think I should do?” Qing Shui’s powerful spirit energy pressured Ji Wutong.
Ji Wutong was an Early Martial Emperor. Putting aside the fact that his abilities were a far cry from Qing Shui’s, even when Qing Shui was still at his level, his spirit energy had far surpassed Ji Wutong. Right now, Ji Wutong was immobilized by the pressure from Qing Shui’s spirit energy.
Ji Wutong was stunned. He had initially thought that this young man was also an Early Martial Emperor or only a Peak Martial Emperor. After all, Qing Shui was far too young. Unknowingly, a layer of perspiration appeared on his face.
Because Heavenly Palace was Greencloud Continent’s greatest sect and also because Zu Yanglong was the one who was in the wrong he apologized since he wanted to settle this problem peacefully. Additionally, the General Manor had always kept a low profile.
Suddenly, Qing Shui withdrew his aura. The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to the people behind him, “Bring these few back and punish them according to the clan’s rules!”
“Elder Ji, kill me!”
Zu Yanglong was brought away amidst his loud cries. Even Zu Sui’s corpse was taken away. Ji Wutong then carefully said in a soft voice to Qing Shui, “Mister, do you still have any other instructions?”
“Oh, you think that this is sufficient?” Qing Shui’s lifted his brows and looked towards the old man.
Ji Wutong now bore a great hatred towards Zu Clan for offending such a powerful person. They really didn’t know any better. To think that they dared to have evil intentions on this guy’s women. They truly deserved death. The women of powerful people could not be touched. He knew that things wouldn’t be solved so easily and just the mere thought of this caused his face to fall.
“No, no, please go ahead. I’ll promise you anything.” Ji Wutong knew that no matter what was to happen, he would have to accommodate this young man’s wishes.
“How many other members of Zu Clan are there in General Manor?” Qing Shui asked.
Ji Wutong’s body trembled slightly before he said, “Over a hundred!”
“But Zu Sui is ranked third and there are only two people in his branch. He’s dead, and now, Zu Yanglong is crippled as well.”
“Tell me why the General Manor still exists in such a poor Greencloud Continent?” Qing Shui stared at Ji Wutong and asked softly.
“Let me answer your question!”
At that moment, a voice rang out. It was clear as if the person was right next to him. However, Qing Shui knew that the person was still over 1,000 li away from him. However, within three breaths of time, an old man walked out from the staircase. He had black hair, a white beard, white brows, and his gaze appeared kind yet intelligent. He wore white clothes and a double-headed dragon cane hang on his arm. When Qing Shui saw that old man, he abruptly stood up, his aura raised to its maximum.
Unknowingly, the Violet Star Thunder God was already in his hands. He took a step forward and stood before the three ladies.
To think General Manor had such an old monster to support them…
4,000 stars…
Qing Shui was mainly worried about the people behind him and was also astonished by the old man’s cultivation. This was the strongest person Qing Shui had come across and it was in Greencloud Continent. How could he not be astonished?
“Old Ancestor!”
…
“You guys can leave. I’m sure that Qing Shui will not stop you. No one is allowed to come in.” The old man’s voice was calm and amiable, it could even calm their erratic heartbeats.
“Qing Shui, we’ll leave you to chat with this old sir and we’ll head back first!” Canghai Mingyue smiled and said to Qing Shui.
“Alright!” Qing Shui nodded.
The three ladies greeted the old man, and seeing that he didn’t mean any harm, they went back. It was because they knew that even if they were to start fighting, there was nothing they could do to help. Their presence would only cause Qing Shui to be distracted.
The old man found a seat and sat down. “The youngsters these days are really formidable. This old man doesn’t feel that he is your opponent.”
“Sir, you’re too humble. Your appearance had given me a big shock. To think that there’s still an existence as powerful as yourself in Greencloud Continent.” Qing Shui sat down gradually, not letting go of his Violet Star Thunder God. The double-headed dragon cane was the old man’s weapon!
“Lad, there’s no need to be nervous. I had never thought of starting a fight. Let me answer your question from earlier. I’ve never expected that Greencloud Continent could nurture such a demonic character like yourself. I’m heartened to see this. It’s really the blessing of Greencloud Continent!”
Qing Shui was a bit puzzled, but he didn’t say a word and just quietly listened. Qing Shui didn’t know this old man’s name. However, it didn’t matter if he knew his name or not. A name was just a designation, an address!
