“I must definitely be married into the Situ Clan!” A lady swooned as she saw Situ Ba’s muscular physique!
“My daughter must be married into a clan like the Situ Clan, if not we’d lose face!” An extremely ugly upper-class lady spoke out.
“Your daughter? Sigh, you’d better forget about it. Even if you were to pay them, they wouldn’t be willing to accept!” Not sure who said this, but it was right on track.
“Who, who said that? I’m so pretty, what’s wrong with my daughter?”
“Pfft pfft!”
…………………………
The members of the Qing Clan could only swallow the insults in silence. It was not easy for a clan to survive. There were times of glory and times of grievance. After all, there was always someone better out there.
Feng Wuxi still remained smiling, and there was no change in her facial expression. Amidst the discussions, there were also those which had implicated the Feng Clan. But from the start, her poised expression had shown no changes, but remained so graceful that it was astonishing.
Qing Shui frowned. He wanted to step up, but he held it in. After all, Situ Ba had stepped down. He could not possibly head over and bash him now.
“If you’re not fighting, I am!” At that moment, a piercing voice as if it were metal shot out. Following that, a normal looking middle-aged man stepped up the arena.
Qing Shui saw that his steps were very light when he was walking, the distance between each step was exactly the same. While his way of walking was very queer, his speed was very fast. It was as if he was using one step to move a two-step distance.
The middle-aged man seemed calm, but he seemed to emit a feeling that he was common, yet he was actually sharp. The aura he emitted was as if he were a sharp sword!
“Please give me your guidance!” Qing He smiled, and cupped his hands respectfully.
The middle-aged man also cupped his hands and said, “Please!”
Qing He was at the pinnacle of the 9th grade of the Martial Commander, and he was also well versed in the clan’s Blue Lotus Art. It was just too bad that he had only cultivated two lotuses, one for defence and one for attack.
The two lotuses were the size of a basin. They were snow-white as jade, sparkling and translucent, emitting a light tinge of chillness!
The middle-aged man’s unwavering eyes changed on seeing the two lotuses, but it was full of contempt. Seeing that Qing He was ready, the middle-aged man dashed towards Qing He, as fast as the wind!
“This is bad!” Seeing that speed, Qing Shui knew that Qing He would be in trouble!
Qing Shui was cursing to himself. Why were there so many Xiantian cultivators? In the past, although they were in Qing Village, they had never heard of so many Xiantian cultivators. Even in Hundred Miles City, it appeared as if there were no Xiantian Cultivators, and it was unlikely that there were many hidden in the dark. But, after he came to Hundred Miles City, it was as if Xiantian cultivators were everywhere, popping out left and right. There’s Wenren Wu-Shuang, Yu Donghao whom he had healed, Gongyang Xuantong, Baili Jingwei, Yiye Jiange, and now this seemingly common middle-aged stranger…
With a blast of the middle-aged man’s fist, the lotuses shattered. Even Qing He had spewed blood as he was sent flying off the arena!
“Hahaha, since when does a clan with a Houtian cultivator have the right to set up an arena? If there is an arena, one must have the mental preparation to be killed!” The middle-aged man revealed a noxious aura.
I will kill them all and then head to the Gongyang Clan to get the other half of the Energized Meridians Pellet, and then make my escape. That Skysword Sect is nothing outside of the Cang Lang Country.” The middle-aged man said to himself as he looked at the Qing He whom he had sent flying.
Qing Shui could clearly sense the bloodthirsty aura being emitted by the man. It was an aura that came about by slaughtering many. Qing Shui frowned as he started to think of how they had gotten themselves involved with this kind of person. “He must be either a fugitive, or an assassin!”
Qing Clan and the people from the banquet quickly rushed to take a look at Qing He who had collapsed a distance away. Qing Shui was the first to reach Qing He. The bones on the left side of his chest had shattered, causing his left chest to be slightly sunken in. This was because he had managed to block some of the impact with the lotus, if not, he’d be on his deathbed!
“No need to check, he’s dead for sure!” The middle-aged man casually said.
Qing Shui activated his Heavenly Vision Technique as he took a look. His heart leapt with joy as he realized that Qing He’s heart was actually on his right side. He quickly took out the golden needles, and rapidly inserted them into his chest and abdomen while protecting Qing He’s heart and meridian channels. This time around, he used all nine needles.
