AST 1536 - The Battle ended just like that? Gentle and Charming

Qing Shui had already prepared to bet everything, but at this moment, a light flashed in front of his eyes.

Bang!

Qing Shui saw the old man formerly rushing towards him being sent flying in an extremely sorry state. It was only then when Qing Shui clearly saw the identity of the man that suddenly appeared before him.

Qin Baifo!

Qing Shui smiled. This man was truly very strong. At this moment, Qin Baifo presented an extremely calm attitude, but his gaze was on the old man that was knocked away by him.

“The face of the Gu Clan was completely thrown away. Did you think that my Qin King Manor has no one? Or did you not place anyone in your eyes? No matter how you want to play, I shall accompany you to the end.” Qin Baifo spoke. His voice wasn’t loud but everyone spectating below could hear it clearly.

As the sound of his voice faded, the voices of people down below instantly erupted.

“The Gu Clan is too arrogant. Isn’t that breaking the rules? They even dared to smack the face of the royal clan?”

“Qin Baifo’s strength is really terrifying. This man has always kept a low profile but when he erupted forth like today, he was like a fierce tiger. This young man definitely has something to do with Fairy Qing. Maybe he is her man.”

“Well, he has the strength to match up to Fairy Qing.”

…...

“Qing Shui, you can leave first. I shall take care of things here.” Qin Baifo smiled.

Qing Shui nodded his head. He was heavily injured due to the side-effects of consuming the berserker blood pill, which were kicking in. Hence, Qing Shui got off the battle platform but he hadn’t left the area yet.

“Are your injuries serious?” Qin Qing came beside him, staring at his injuries with worries in her eyes.

“Upon seeing you, I feel that my injuries aren’t serious at all. Earlier, I thought that I would never be able to see you again in this lifetime. How scary that was. When that thought flashed through my mind, even my soul trembled.” Qing Shui gently smiled, staring at the worried but still flawless face of Qin Qing.

Qin Qing’s heart trembled. This man was not afraid of death but instead, was afraid of never seeing her again. She couldn’t be sure if what he spoke was the truth but she knew for sure that he was in love with her.

“You are so heavily injured, can’t you be more serious? Let me take a look at your wounds.” Qin Qing mumbled after some time.

“Let’s wait for Uncle Qin to finish the battle.”

Qin Qing, in fact, was also very worried about the battle on the platform. She only temporarily got that off her mind when she saw Qing Shui covered in blood. But, now that Qing Shui put it this way, in addition to her seeing him act like nothing was wrong, she nodded to his suggestion in agreement.

“Qin Baifo, you are no good soul either. Didn’t you also sneak attack me earlier?”

“Sneak attack you? You are not worthy. Don’t you feel your earlier actions were extremely shameless? An undying old freak like you actually uses such a method to sneak attack a junior. I’m ashamed of you.” Qin Baifo continued smacking the face of the Gu Clan, cursing them.

“So much nonsense. Show me that your strength is able to match the skill of your mouth!” The old man didn’t want Qin Baifo to continue talking. He directly lashed out at Qin Baifo.

Qin Baifo waved his hand. Qing Shui discovered that Qin Baifo’s battle techniques were similar to Qin Qing but the way he executed them was much more brilliant in comparison, as well as being superior in terms of power.

Nine Leaf Ripple Palm.

With Qin Baifo in the center, layers of ripples appeared in his surroundings, gushing towards the old man. These gentle and calm looking ripples suddenly exploded with extreme might upon meeting their target.

The old man was in the middle of rushing towards Qin Baifo, but the ripples spread across the air akin to a spider web, restricting the old man’s speed.

The old man’s speed greatly diminished and the movements of his hands and legs were restricted as well.

Explode!

Pa!

Spatial cracks then appeared around the old man and after the explosion, the spider web was destroyed in many places.

However, the old man was only slightly injured. Qin Baifo didn’t act with the intent to kill.

After 15 minutes, a person from the Gu Clan appeared in the air. “Stop. Our Gu Clan has been defeated.”

Qin Baifo was precisely waiting for this statement. It was impossible to completely eradicate the Gu Clan. Since this was the case, there was no longer a need to continue with this farce of a battle. The most important thing was that the Gu Clan had a backer. If not, he would already have beaten the Gu Clan out of this circle.

The old man who made that statement was one of the three strongest among the elders of the Gu Clan. One could say that the entire Gu Clan was controlled by them. Although the Qin Clan only had one such powerful old man and Qin Baifo himself, their potential was still higher than the Gu Clan because Qin Baifo was still considered young.

The Qin Clan and the Royal Clan had a very good relationship on the surface as both of them were surnamed Qin. However, if the Qin Clan wasn’t strong enough, everything would soon vanish.

Everything here was built on the basis of having enough strength.

The oldest amongst the elders was a very skinny man. He stood there, without exuding a whit of grandeur. His expression was gloomy, something close to disappointment when he saw how badly the junior generations of his clan had performed.

Qin Baifo didn’t say anything. He quietly stared at the old elder on the other end of the sky. This whole matter started because of the Gu Clan. They wanted to fight so they made a fight happen. Now they wanted to stop it just like that? How could there be such an easy thing in the world?

“This time around, it was the Gu Clan’s mistake. I represent the Gu Clan to apologize to this little brother.” The old elder stated, his tone was extremely cordial.

Although it was just a single statement, it was enough considering the status of this old elder. The old man didn’t apologize to the Qin King Manor but rather, it was to Qing Shui.

Qin Baifo didn’t press the old elder. The Gu Clan wasn’t really sincere in their apology either. In any case, it didn’t matter if they apologized because in fact, at their current level, both parties usually settled disputes by two ways. First, annihilating the other party completely or second, giving each other some face.
