Chapter 122: Secret Mansion Part 1 (1/2)
Qin got speechless after getting his response. He never thought Xiao Lan would give such a reply. But, he quickly calmed down and put the sword in his spatial ring. With Guo Min, he doesn't need anyone else to help him for forging.
”Do you think it is a good idea to kill someone and run away?” Yue Bin smirked and asked.
”Well, sometimes running away is a good idea. Not to mention, nobody saw us killing this old man.” Qin nodded his head and walked out of the store. As for Battle Dragon Sect, he wasn't worried even a bit.
After ten minutes,
Few middle-aged men arrived at the store and found the old man dead.
”Damn! He got away. We should have told this guy not to mess around right now.” One of the middle-aged men clenched his fist and spoke with a bloodthirsty tone.
Another middle-aged man walked near the corpse and analyzed it. Then, he turned his head at others and said ”Elder wasn't wrong. That guy has the power of Revolving Core Realm cultivator at Qi Gathering Realm. We can't mess around just like this guy.”
”Let's return back to the family and let them decide.” Another man spoke and three of them left the store.
After a few minutes, they reached in front of the mansion. It was guarded by ten guards wearing silver armor at the front gate. The guards didn't stop them since they could recognize them easily. Those three men walked inside the mansion where seven people were sitting in the circle discussing with each other.
Three of them were women while four of them were men. Seeing those three men, those seven people stopped talking.
”Elders, the old man is dead. The elder from the sect didn't lie. His strength seems to be at the Revolving Core Realm.” Three of them bowed down and one of them spoke.
Hearing his words, seven elders stared at each other. Their eyes glint with dangerous auras and one of the men spoke ”Let's get rid of him as soon as he comes out. He can't join the ranking.”
”But, his strength is enough to join the ranking. It has already been circulating throughout the Battle Dragon Sect. If they learn about him, we could get in trouble.” Another elder spoke.
One of the ladies smirked and spoke ”Why must we make enemy with him? Why can't we simply forget about this or even build a good relationship with him?”
”You know exactly why.” The male elder spoke while rubbing his beard. He turned his head at those three as he paused and stared at them. Those three men instantly left the mansion.
”We can't let Tan Family rise else Royal Family will kill us.” The male elder continued as they left.
”Tch! Why do we need to fear those royals? It's not like they can openly kill us. And, if they want to work in dark, when did we start to fear them? If they want to fight then let the Heaven Smiting Cauldron eat them alive.” Another lady snorted and spoke with disdain on her face.
”And, then what? Reveal everyone that we have a divine weapon? Don't forget, we might have the divine weapon. But, we don't have the strength to keep it. Just like the Tan family, the history of Heaven Smiting Cauldron has been wiped out from the history because of our ancestors.” The male elder with a slightly young face spoke.
Other male elders had old look but three ladies looked quite young and beautiful. Hearing his words, everyone else turned silent as he continued ”Don't forget why the royal family asked us to keep Tan family in check?”
”Just like us, they also have many inheritances left and especially that bloodline. They don't want to trouble Tan's family because they knew they would be wiped out. The ancestor of Tan Family is not a normal Great Emperor.”
”If he was in the ranking, his strength would be in the top ten regardless of his realm. For now, let's just focus on one thing. Since he has killed our member, we have every bit of right to kill him. But, don't go and make trouble in the sect.”
”Let's release our shadow guards to trial him. As soon as he comes out, all seven of us will go out and kill him. And, if he doesn't come out for a long time, we will just let him be. We will kill if he is weak, and we will make peace if he is strong. That's how our Tu Family proceed, understand?”
Hearing his words, other elders nodded their heads. Yes, this is how they proceed. They don't mind bowing to strong and stumbling the weak. As long as it benefits them and does not harm them, they will do everything in their power.
