Qin Lan thought that the things he pursued stubbornly was right before him. For these few years, the little cliques at the Ascending Dragon Slope was unwilling to accept him, a disciple from the foreign branch. They do not trust him. It caused him to hit the wall at all times for he always wanted to find a patron.
Weren’t this patron right before him?
Now, Qin Lan realized that he was not scared. On the contrary, he looked forward to it somewhat.
The strength of the Purple Pupil Golden Ox was extraordinary. As soon as he stepped out, his imposing manner was full of oppression. Although he had stopped unleashing his aura, it was enough to make Qin Shaohong and his people breath with difficulty.
For all the giant trees outside the yard, even for the trees as big as two person, they also bend their bodies under such aura and emerged bitter “creaking” sound.
The Purple Pupil Golden Ox and the Nirvana Explosive Tiger were the spiritual beasts that would easily go berserk among the twelve sealed spiritual beasts. These spiritual beasts would also unleash tremendous combat power after going berserk.
Now, the Purple Pupil Golden Ox had not enter the berserk state. However, the temperament unleashed by already made Qin Shaohong and his people unable to withstand it.
Among the dozen of people, Qin Shaohong and the three others were at the Perfect Void Martial Stage. Since they possessed such strength, it allowed them to become the leader of their clique.
However at this moment, they realized without a choice that their most prized strength had seemed extremely frail before this forthright guy.
When the other party initiated his temperament casually, it seemed to have instantly locked them into a space cage. If it weren’t for their quick reaction and retreated backwards, this one move from the other party was capable of engulfing all of them.
Upon having retreated for hundreds of meters, they now look at this Purple Pupil Golden Ox overwhelmed with shock. The previous arrogance and domineering trait had disappeared from each of their expression.
The Purple Pupil Golden Ox gave a roaring laughter and took two large strides forward. He looked disdainfully out of the corner of his eyes at Qin Shaohong and the others: “Come come, why are you running so fast? Where is that surge of unbridled energy?”
With each step the Purple Pupil Golden Ox walked forward, Qin Shaohong and the others walked a dozen steps backwards unconsciously. Although they were arrogant and haughty, they were not people without brains.
The strength demonstrated by this forthright guy had way surpassed their own.
The difference within it could not be made up by a greater number of people.
As Qin Wushuang took in the whole situation, he knew that the time has come. He had not planned to teach these people a lesson. In fact, his intention was clear for he wanted these people to sound out the difficulties and retreat to avoid defeat.
At the current stage, Qin Wushuang did not plan to act with a high-profile. It would be impossible for him to push their current relationship into a deadlock. After all, this was only some minor conflicts within the clan. To put it bluntly, it was to be of no great matter.
“Purple Pupil, hold on.”
Qin Wushuang stopped the Purple Pupil Golden Ox’s next movement and walked forward causally. He looked at Qin Shaohong and the others who were still at a frightened state and spoke with an indifferent tone: “Everyone, today you had come to the door to provoke me, if you were not disciples of the Qin Clan, now someone would surely be bleeding, or have their bodies lay dead on the ground.”
Clearly, Qin Shaohong was still unconvinced. However, what could he do if he were in unconvinced? The fear they had demonstrated were sufficient enough for them to lose face.
Regardless, today they were defeated.
“Qin Wushuang, you got me. Today the few of us were under-prepared However, don’t be so proud. Did you not just take in a few powerful subordinates because of your good fortune?” Qin Hao appeared to take defeat with bad grace and started to find excuses.
Although the other people did not speak, they had revealed the same expression. Clearly, they were expressing the same intentions.
Qin Wushuang said coldly: “I don’t want to discuss such boring topic regarding fortune. I only want to tell you guys that because you are all disciples of the Qin Clan, this time I don’t plan to make a big fuss about the matter. However, if you feel I am easy to talk to and do it again, don’t blame me for not reminding you. I will make sure you understand the meaning of regret.”
The Purple Pupil Golden Ox glared with his big eyes: “What are you looking at? Did you not hear it or what? If it weren’t for the fact that you are also carrying the surname Qin, one palm attack for one, I will slap you guys all to death.”
Qin Wushuang said with a light smile: “Purple Pupil, don’t be so crude.”
The Purple Pupil Golden Ox chuckled and snorted at Qin Shaohong and the others. Then, he retreated to the rear.
Qin Wushuang knew that these people felt unconvinced inwardly as he said again: “Everyone, I never emphasize on being a domineering figure, for this is my way of living. I never planned to form the so-called grudge with all of you. I had come here, not because I want to get attached to some patron. I only want to tell you guys that the only reason I had come here because my last name is Qin. The only reason I am been courteous to all of you guys today is because your last name is also Qin. As for how are we going to get long and how our relationship goes in the future, you should think about it yourself. Regardless of the tough or the gentle way, I will accompany you to the end. However, let me tell you the worst possible, regardless which method, I can promise you in the end, the one will lose will be you guys.”
Bao Bao was holding back for a while as for now, he could not refrain himself from walking forward. He shouted “You lot truly don’t know anything. Is the Heavenly Luo Daoist powerful, didn’t our boss still took it down? That’s right, you are the most exceptional ones among the core disciples. However, if you truly felt you are strong, why didn’t you fight with the Heavenly Punishing Villa, or the Sound of Thunder Sect? Is it fun to fight internally against your own?”
Upon hearing his words, Qin Wushuang could not hold back a smile. Bao Bao was completely imitating Qin Wushuang secretly through the way he spoke. It was like an exact copy.
If it were Qin Wushuang speaking these words, it would not appear somewhat abrupt. However, Bao Bao’s seemingly wise and experienced tone sounded playful.
Even Lone, who was always serious found it funny inwardly.
When Qin Shaohong and the others failed to be pretentious, they had fall to such situation. They had lost all of their faces. However, upon thinking the strength of that forthright guy, they would not dare to unleash their accumulated anger.
They had heard how Qin Wushuang was a ferocious person through different channels. Today he did not become hostile with them because he took in the fact that everyone had belonged to the same clan.
If they truly stayed ignorant and continued to provoke him, in the case they had angered Qin Wushuang and enter a deadlock situation, it would be them suffering the most when the matter gets reported to the Chief.
Regardless everything, it was them who had started the trouble.
Qin Shaohong took in a deep breath and just about to speak some courteous words. Qin Wushuang stopped him immediately and waved his hand impatiently: “Alright, I don’t want to hear any courteous words. Qin Shaohong, whether we are enemy or friend, you should all think about it on your way back. If you come next time politely, we are still brothers of the Qin Clan. I will also not publicize today’s matter.”
“However, if you still come with such attitude the next time, I would not care your background or your patron. Certainly you will not get it easy!”
After he had finished, he flicked his sleeve and said: “Purple Pupil, send the guests off!”
The Purple Pupil Golden Ox chuckled mischievously and walked forward in a carefree stance: “Did you hear that? My master is sending the guests off. Why are you still staying here, are you waiting for lunch?”
Qin Shaohong felt extremely at loss. He had feel vexed to the extreme. This situation had completely trailed off from his expectation trajectory. All of his prepared speech and methods could not be used.
After holding back for a while, he still could not utter a single word to argue back. Thus, as he could not refrain himself from feeling flustered and exasperated, he roared with a red face and coarse voice: “Qin Wushuang, I want to fight you single-handed! If you got the skill, let’s fight one-on-one!”
As soon as Qin Shaohong spoke these words, the other three could not but help to be astonished? What happend to Qin Shaohong? He had issued a one-on-one challenge to Qin Wushuang?
However, soon they realized the light. At this moment, it seems fighting one-on-one was the best method to win back the situation. The three of them felt somewhat regretted. That’s right, although Qin Wushuang was powerful, it seemed he had not reached the Perfect Void Martial Stage. When fighting one-on-one, it’s highly possible for them to win!
Then why was Qin Shaohong the one that had issued it first?
Qin Wushuang’s expression sunk. This Qin Shaohong was truly not letting it go. Since you are not accepting my courteous manner, then don’t blame me for hitting you.
“Qin Shaohong, are you sure?” Qin Wushuang asked with a low voice.
Qin Shaohong was completely in a rush: “Of course I am sure. Qin Wushuang, if you got the guts, don’t let your subordinate assist you! What kind of skill is it to ask your subordinate helping you?”
Bao Bao could not hold back and swore: “Qin Shaohong, you are truly shameless. Why don’t you fight one-on-one with the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect? Let’s see if they would fight single-handed with you. Our boss did not step on your tail, right? Are you not feeling of having lost enough face?”
“Qin Wushuang, do you have the gut?” Qin Shaohong ignored Bao Bao’s provocation and stared at Qin Wushuang with a red face. He felt that since Qin Wushuang did not utter sound, surely he was feeling intimidated inwardly. Or else, why would he not be fighting single-handed with him?
Qin Wushuang stared at Qin Shaohong with a pair of cold gaze. That form of peaceful lights in his eyes gradually transformed into a eerie light. From the corner of his mouth, only in the state of anger where curvy line had appeared.
Qin Shaohong had viewed it as a form of timid as he said with a cold sneer: “Qin Wushuang, don’t tell me, that besides of using your underlings fighting the world, you don’t have any other skills.”
“Fight one-on-one, if you can beat me, in the future, you will be my boss at the Ascending Dragon Slope. Regardless where I walk, I must go around you whenever I see you!” Initially, Qin Shaohong was not someone that lacked rationality. However, today’s encounter made him nursed tremendous grievance. He felt that using a provoking method to force Qin Wushuang fight one-on-one with him would be the best solution.
“Fight one-on-one?” Qin Wushuang shook his head with a cold smile. To tell you the truth, he felt this idea was childish. For people that had achieved their stage, they were still playing such low leveled game from the martial arts student age?
On the battlefield, each blade and spear moves used were used with full force as one would try to kill the other party to death. For the method of fighting single-handed, who would play it with you?
“Qin Wushuang, don’t tell me, you don’ have the gut?” Qin Shaohong kept pushing with his words.
“Qin Shaohong, are you sure you want to fight one-on-one with me?” Qin Wushuang took in a deep breath and barely suppressed the anger inside his heart.
He had truly never thought of fighting with weapons with the disciples of the Qin Clan. However, this Qin Shaohong had truly touched his bottom-line!
Since you would not give up before seeing the river, then I will let you drown as soon as you see the river!
Qin Shaohong thought Qin Wushuang had caught the hook as he said with an eerie smile: “Of course I am sure, I am just afraid that you are not sure!”
“Qin Shaohong, fighting one-on-one with me, you must be prepared to die. To me, your challenge is a form of deep offend. In between these matters, people who offended me this way would only receive one result, that would be death! Qin Shaohong, if you are not afraid of death, then let Honored Warrior Zhi Huai issue a life and death contract for you. Then, you can pick the location and time!”
This was not words to frighten him. Since Qin Wushuang’s time as a martial arts student, the siblings of Zhang Xian and Zhang Yao who had issued to fight one-on-one with him died by his hands successively. The disciples of Old Devil Ji Yin also encounter the same fate. The names on the list were ongoing.
Although Qin Wushuang did not wish to treat disciples of the Qin Clan as enemies, the non-stop actions from Qin Shaohong had clearly touched Qin Wushuang’s bottom-line.
Finally, anger was ignited inside Qin Wushuang by Qin Shaohong.
