AST 1973 - Owing Your Life to Me, Kill Yourself if Unwilling to (2/2)
“Have you found out about the man’s background yet?” At this moment, many of the main forces sat in the great hall of Qiao Clan.
“No. This man seemed to have landed from the sky. He was never spotted in the cities around Dazang City.” An ordinary middle-aged guy reported.
“Qiao Ba, could it be the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace?” The highest elderly with grizzled hair said.
The elderly had grey-white hair while his face was bright and flushed like a baby’s face. There were no wrinkles at all. Only the experienced eyes could tell that he was aged.
“Shouldn’t be. This isn’t our first conflict with the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace. It is impossible to hide a strong warrior like this. Besides, with our previous information, it’s his first visit to Dazang City and this Northern Ice Domain.”
“Father, shall we take actions? Although we don’t know the woman’s strength in the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace, the others should not be a problem. How about giving them some pressure?” A middle-aged man spoke. He was mature and handsome with a lingering aura.
“Qiao Ding, don’t lose your mind even if you want to marry that woman. This is the Qiao Clan. Do you want the Qiao Clan to die with you?” The old man gave him a sharp glare.
Qiao Ding turned pale instantly, his back soaked in sweat. His father was extremely resolute and murderous. Before this, three brothers were announced as the heir but now they were all retrieved.
“I dare not to. Could this young man be our hindrance?” Qiao Ding whispered his inquiry.
“I won’t allow any accidents to happen to the Qiao Clan. I have always told you guys not to be swayed by personal feelings and reveal your weaknesses. Also, the dignity of a big family is not that important. The survival and inheritance are the most crucial thing. Dignity can’t be forced sometimes. It would only bring more shame.” Said the old man slowly while observing the surroundings.
Qiao An seemed uneasy and said to the old man, “I’m sorry, father. Your son is useless. He has embarrassed you.”
The old man waved, “This is not shameful. You did great today.”
Qiao Ding stared at Qiao An with a sense of coldness. It was very obscure. He did everything while keeping his head lowered slightly.
“Alright. Don’t make any exaggerated moves and don’t lead the Qiao Clan to unknown hazards. Otherwise, I’d make him regret coming to this world.” The old man uttered softly.
“What if the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace threatens us?” An old man stood up.
He was the old man’s brother, Qiao Jiang. He was one of the Qiao Clan branches who was as strong as the backbones. Rumor had it that they were planning to fight for the chief’s position.
“I did not ask you to be cowards.” The old man said to Qiao Jiang casually and left straight away.
Qiao Jiang watched the old man’s shadow. There was an intense murderous flame in his eyes but it disappeared in a flash. He then lowered his head gently.
The men began to make comments as the old man left. They were divided into three branches. Though there were more, only three of them were qualified for this competition. Since it was a special occasion, everyone stayed united.
Qing Shui and the two ladies headed to the Northern Snow City which was only separated by the Xiyun City. It would be time-consuming for others to walk through these few cities, but Qing Shui only took a while to reach the Northern Snow City.
There was no snow in Northern Snow City, but the sky was snowy fair and white. The whole city appeared bright and clean. Qing Shui wanted to check out the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace as well since Luan Luan was there.
Qing Shui did not plan to stay long. He wanted to move further and ask about the Five Tiger Immortal Sect. He wondered if it was still an Immortal Sect. It could be the Five Tiger Immortal Palace by now.
Northern Underworld Mountain!
The Northern Underworld Mountain was an enormous mountain which laid across the Northern Snow City and separated it into the North and the South. It was the biggest and tallest mountain in the city. The trees were thick and appeared like a green dragon from the sky.
The Northern Underworld Immortal Palace was located on the Northern summit in the middle of the Northern Underworld Mountain. However, Qing Shui was blocked at the foot of the Northern Underworld Mountain and could not go up. The two ladies said they would go up and inform about it.
He kindly accepted the offer, saying, “Thanks!”
Luan Luan was probably still at home now or on her way. After all, he had come here with the Five Elements Divine Flag.
