Chapter 585: Guan He Admits Defeat
Translator: Kazeyuki_ Editor: Henyee
This was Qin Wushuang’s personal character for if you respect me an inch, I respect a foot for you.
If you act shameless while I pay my respect to you, then don’t blame me for turning hostile.
Guan He’s gaze had gradually become grim. The tyrannical intention from his eyes had congealed into a form of invasive look. Vividly, it formed into a surge of invisible aura as he started to pressure Qin Wushuang.
Regarding power and stage, compared to Elder Guan He who was at the Perfect Void Martial Stage, Qin Wushuang was some distance away from him. However, in terms of giving off pressure, how could Qin Wushuang get intimidated by the aura of one at the Perfect Void Martial Stage after going through the spiritual baptism? He said with a cool and collected tone: “Elder Guan He, if you wished to subdue the enemy without fighting, this way of thinking is unavoidably naïve. The opponents I have encountered are ten times stronger than you, and they had never made me admit to defeat with their aura.”
Like a piece of sharp blade, these faint words had pierced directly into Elder Guan He’s heart. Instantly, it had disseminated half of his imposing manner.
Although Elder Guan He was tyrannical, domineering, he was not a figure without a brain. When he saw Qin Wushuang still appeared calm and collected under his pressure, he was already somewhat suspicious. Inwardly, he was doubting, of who exactly was this young man? When did such young man appeared at the Aspiring Throne Mountain? Whose disciple did he belonged to?
Although Elder Guan He had always been on the outside world for majority of his times, he was confident of understanding well of the things that were happening inside the sect. Especially regarding those elite ones of the young generation, one could almost say that he knows them like the back of his hand.
However, such strange kid had broken Elder Guan He’s confidence. It was not because he felt that he was incapable of taking care of this young man, but he was restraining his fear of the higher-up behind this young man.
Before he had clearly understood this problem, it would be impossible for him to inflict serious injuries to him. Despite of possessing tremendous power, he still must watch out for a lot of people at the Aspiring Throne Mountain.
After all, inside the Aspiring Throne Mountain, there were too many people that possess greater authority power than him.
Clearly, these words were directed at Elder Guan He’s heart and pulled out the worry and the fear he was holding back.
For a moment, Elder Guan He trembled with fear. Inwardly, he thought that indeed this young man was outstanding. The more Qin Wushuang acted this way, the more felt that Qin Wushuang must have trump cards behind him.
As if knowing the load on his mind, Qin Wushuang laughed and said with an unconstrained tone: “Earlier I have said to Qin Wei, I am all alone in the world, and it has only been a few days since I came to the Aspiring Throne Mountain. I do not have a teacher, nor a supporter. I only have firm and unyielding character, and a surge of upright moral vital energy.”
“You are sharp-tongued!” Guan He gave a cold sneer, “Kid, if you have a teacher or a supporter, it’s best to tell me. Or else, once we started to make moves, I would not know the meaning of holding back.”
At this moment Bao Bao interrupted and cried out: “Why are you keep asking nonstop? I am afraid that once we tell you, you will not have the courage to compete with us.”
“Oh?” Guan He said amidst of angry laughter, “Then I would rather hear of which giant supporter you have, that would make me not even have the courage to compete with you.”
Bao Bao laughed: “What giant supporter do we need? Didn’t my boss already said? We had just come to the Aspiring Throne Mountain for a few days, in terms of teacher or supporter, is that important?”
This point had made Guan He finding it to be difficult.
Lone also said coldly: “Elder Guan He, my boss does not have any supporter. If you are to make a move, don’t hold back and just come at us. I would rather see that would it be you, Elder Guan He be more domineering, or that Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect.”
Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect?
Suddenly, as a “buzzing” sound emerged from Elder Guan He’s head, he had remembered something. Then, he instantly remembered how these days, some of the stories his Elder friends had told him from the Upright Morality.
Instantly, his expression froze and the way he looked at Qin Wushuang also changed.
This change made people of both Plain Field Town and the Red Water Town astonished.
“You, you are that Qin Wushuang from the Human Countries?” Inwardly, Guan He scolded himself for being foolish for he should have thought about it sooner! He also heard about the story at the Sacrificing Valley.
When others did not know about Qin Yu’s background, being an old neighbor, how could he not know? In fact, he should have thought way sooner that this young man was Qin Wushuang!
Qin Wushuang said with a light smile: “Yes.”
Elder Guan He’s complexion had turned green. This time, he truly felt that he was been reckless. Regardless, since he had put on such major momentum, how would clansman of the Red Water Qin Clan view him if he were to do nothing?
However, what kind of person was Qin Wushuang? He was the young devilish figure in which the Third Chief had picked him up personally from the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect personally and the one who had stirred up the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect and almost destroyed it!
In spite of the size of his gut, Elder Guan He would never dare to carry out violence to Qin Wushuang. Regardless of win or loss, he would the loser in the end. There would not be any other possibilities.
Just Qin Wushuang’s contribution for having destroyed the roots of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect alone, had surpassed Elder Guan He. Not to mention, this kid was only in his twenties, and full of potential! Judging from the recent talk, clearly the higher-ups were to cultivate Qin Wushuang as a Core disciple.
For such young man, certainly his position in the future would surpass him, the Elder! Even if he were not to be the heir to the Chief, at the very least, he would be the heir to Honored Warriors!
Thinking to this point, instantly Elder Guan He’s arrogant imposing manner had instantly softened a lot.
Upon suffering by Qin Wushuang’s hands, Qin Wei cried out: “Elder Guan He, this kid is only a poor kid of the human countries. He is only a newly rich person, and do not have any supporters.”
At this moment, Elder Guan He even emerged the thought of squeezing Qin Wei to death.
Qin Wushuang still appeared as calm as the wind and said with an indifferent tone: “Elder Guan He, it seems this Patriarch Qin Wei did not learn from his lesson. It’s not me bluffing, if all disciples of the Qin Clan are like Qin Wei, our Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan would have been chased out of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain long ago.”
Qin Wei’s face turned into the color of green and pale as he swore: “Kid, don’t show off as a fake Daoist scholar. If you are noble, why not get buried at the Sacrificing Valley?”
As soon as he spoke these words, not to mention Qin Wushuang, even Elder Guan He’s complexion had changed. He swung his sleeve and shouted: “Qin Wei, shut up your mouth for me!”
Swept by this fierce wind, Qin Wei stumbled and moved back a couple of steps. While he coughed continuously, he looked at Elder Guan He with startled eyes. Clearly, he could not believe that for a person as protective as Elder Guan He, he had taught him, his most trusted aide a lesson at such public space!
Clearly, other people of the Red Water Town could not accept this scene. Stunned and trembling with fear, they looked at Elder Guan He of not knowing what to do, who had radiated power from his angry stance.
Elder Guan He gave a long sigh and nodded: “Qin Wushuang… I took back the words I said. I must admit that you are qualified to invite me for a drink. I am afraid… This would be the best way to solve this problem.”
After he had finished speaking these words, it seemed Guan He had aged ten more years. Admitting defeat before a young man in his twenties, this was the experience he had never had in his lifetime.
However, the current circumstance was more significant than anything else. Why did he acted reckless, why did he not investigate this matter beforehand? Initially, this matter could have ended peacefully and with dignity. How would it fall to the extent in which he was forced to compromise, and kicked his own ass?
Each person of the Red Water Town were dumbstruck and found this scene disbelieving.
On the side of the Plain Field Town, each one were overjoyed and cheered. To the clansman of the Plain Field Qin Clan, Elder Guan He was a legendary existence. Each of them felt that his arrival would drown them into disaster. Unexpectedly, before Elder Guan He made a move, he compromised to a young man of the Human Countries in between a few words?
Could it be that after a few hundreds of years, the name of ancestor Qin Yu was still useful? Even his descendent would make Elder Guan He restrain his fear?
Regardless, this was an unexpected news.
Qin Wushuang laughed: “Great, Elder Guan He, you are an outspoken person who speaks your mind. I am incredibly impressed. In my opinion, this is the perfect result to solve this matter. Elder Guan He, for us exchanging drinks on the table is better than us drawing swords against each other. When people of the Qin Clan massacre one another, in spite of the cause, it would make us a laughingstock to the enemies.”
His words were rather reasonable. Elder Guan He had been suppressing the Plain Field Town continuously and did not wish another exceptional disciple emerge to surpass the geomacy of the Red Water Town.
However, when facing against the outsiders, Guan He’s eagerness to win was no less than Qin Wushuang. He laughed and nodded: “That’s right, we cannot let the outside world laugh at the Qin Clan for not having internal peace. Qin Wushuang, earlier I wanted to tore you into eight pieces. Now, all of a sudden I feel that indeed, you are interesting. It’s no wonder that those great Chiefs and those Honored Warriors gave you high praise! It seems that one’s fame is greater than one deserves!”
As Guan He was also giving himself a way to come down, he turned around and shouted at Qin Wei: “Qin Wei, come here, come to apologize to Young Master Wushuang.”
Qin Wei could almost not believe the words he heard, what was Elder Guan He doing?
“Listen well, in the future, whoever see young master Wushuang, you better be respectable. If it were not for him starting off leniently, even if he were to kill you, I will not go and seek justice for you. You only know that young master Wushuang had come from the Human Countries, did you know what he did recently?”
“Have you heard about the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect? It was young master Wushuang who had wipe out their mountain gate single-handily. This matter had already shocked the entire Xuan Yuan Mound! All of you short-sighted people, hurry and come over to thank young master Wushuang kindness for not killing you?”
The more Guan He had flattered Qin Wushuang, the more acceptable his attitude of switching from arrogance to deference. Not to mention, he was not flattered him excessively as he was only narrating the truth.
Upon hearing his words, Qin Wei and the others had finally realized how idiotic they were. For a figure that had been appreciated by the Supreme Dao Warriors of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, how could they afford to offend him?
The clansmen of the Red Water Qin Clan were ashamed and unable to show their face. The people of the Plain Field Town had finally realized what the name Qin Wushuang had meant?
Each of them were beaming with pleasure and emerged happiness from the bottom of their heart. How long has it bean that finally, the Plain Field Qin Clan had enjoyed the true respect!
“Young man, if I am to make the move, do you think that you, or the two helpers next to you can take it?”
Qin Wushuang said leisurely: “This way, Elder Guan He is not very confident. Or else, with your power at the Perfect Void Martial Stage, you could have just made the move as soon as you entered the door. Who could have stopped you?”
