Chapter 1752: The Coming Storm III
“Qiu Hui, we are doing this for her good!” The old man in grey robes looked a little upset. His face sank “I admit that Tian Ya is quite powerful, but that doesn’t mean he can train the Holy Maiden well! Do you want to ruin her future? Besides, Nine Gate also needs a leader here.
“Moreover, there are other forces besides the Nan family and Nine Gate in this mainland. Have you ever thought about what will happen if they know about her existence? If we can find the cause of the spiritual qi storm, I don’t believe other forces can’t! Tian Ya is alone there. How can he defend himself against so many powerful people?”
Qiu Hui stopped in her tracks. She turned around and sneered.
“I’ve said that she is not the Holy Maiden of Tianling Clan. How do you know that Xia Xia does not want to stay with Maiden Feng? How can you bear to separate a mother from her daughter? If anything, they should voluntarily send Xia Xia here, but I don’t think Maiden Feng will do so. She loves her daughter. Even if she is really in danger, she will not send her daughter to Nine Gate.”
“Qiu Hui!” The white-robed old man was not as calm as the one in grey robes. He snapped, “Whether she’s the Holy Maiden or not, we will know it once we bring her back to Nine Gate. Since you already know what we’re up to, I won’t allow you to leave Nine Gate again.”
Qiu Hui’s eyes grew colder. “And what if I still want to?”
“Qiu Hui, how can you be a match for the eight of us?” The old man laughed. “You don’t have to worry too much. We won’t harm the Holy Maiden’s mother. After all, I still expect the Holy Maiden to be our master in the future, but… She must follow our rules!”
Qiu Hui clenched her fists tightly.
When she and Maiden Feng were inside the room that day, she did not see any strange light at all, not even the people outside. How did someone else see a strange light? Nine Gate wanted Xia Xia. Maiden Feng and the others still did not know about it. There was no guarantee that they would not be in danger…
So, she must go to them!
Qiu Hui drew her long sword, smirked.
“I have owed a favor to Tian Ya, so even if I kill all of you today, you won’t be able to stop me!”
“Qiu Hui!”
All the masters were a bit annoyed. They were doing it for the Holy Maiden and the sake of Nine Gate. Why did Qiu Hui betray them like that!
“Qiu Hui, we call you back today not to confirm the Holy Maiden’s identity, but… We don’t want you to interfere! We have sent our people to Wu Shang City. Do you think that even if you leave, you can stop them?”
Qiu Hui’s face changed dramatically, and her eyes flamed with anger.
“Separating mother and daughter is against human conscience and morality! God will punish all of you!”
“We are not hurting anyone. We just want to take her away, and god will not meddle in such idle matters. Qiu Hui, that girl has been destined to come to Nine Gate. If you stay, you can still take care of the child for us. But if you leave, we can’t guarantee if the other people can treat her well…”
Qiu Hui’s hand trembled as she looked at these people’s cold faces. She then dropped her sword helplessly and closed her eyes…
‘Indeed… I won’t be able to come back if I leave now.
‘But if I stay, I can still take Xia Xia away and send her back to Maiden Feng…’
