Chapter 194: This Knife Is Indeed Quite Nice, So You’re Unworthy Of It!
Qi Hansong said, “Four Family Heads, our Family Head has something he wants me to discuss with you first.”
Duan Zhengyao said in a low voice, “I wonder what the Qi family’s master wants to discuss?”
“It’s like this…” Qi Hansong raised his finger and knocked on the table.
“The Qing Hong Kingdom’s Qi family, the Jade Dragon Kingdom’s Duan family, the Wind Thunder Kingdom’s Huyan family, the Bai Tai Kingdom’s Yin family, and the Qingmo Kingdom’s Peng family previously divided the world of Qingzhou equally.”
“The spiritual pool, minerals, waterways, shops, and other resources in Qingzhou are all divided into five. This situation has been maintained for nearly three thousand years.”!!
“Now, our family head feels that it’s time to double the Qi family’s assets. I wonder if the four family heads are willing to give up some benefits to help our family?”
Duan Zhengyao and the others’ expressions changed drastically.
The Qi family wanted to forcefully draw out at least 30% of each of the four great families’ profits!
Wasn’t this asking for too much?!
“Hmph! Your family is too greedy!” Duan Zhengyao slammed the table angrily. “Do you really think our four families are pushovers?”
Huyan Wu, Yin Lingfeng, and Peng Haolong were also enraged and berated loudly.
Qi Hansong said calmly,
“I’m not afraid to tell you that not only does our family have the support of the Primordial Divine Mountain’s Gu family, but today’s Numinous Treasure Saber can increase the family head’s strength greatly.”
“In other words, our family head’s current strength can definitely reach the quasi Emperor Realm!”
The quasi Emperor Realm!
Hearing this, the expressions of Duan Zhengyao and the others instantly fell.
No wonder the Qi family dared to be so arrogant.
Not only were they backed by the Primordial Divine Mountain’s Gu family, but the Qi family’s master had also reached the quasi Emperor Realm.
Even if the Gu family did not appear, the Qi family’s master had the ability to plunder the four great families!
Seeing the fear on Duan Zhengyao and the others’ faces, Qi Hansong sneered.
“The four of you have to consider it carefully. If you delay it, my demands might double.”
Duan Zhengyao gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t spout nonsense here. Perhaps the peerless divine saber and quasi Emperor Realm cultivation are all made up by you!”
In his position, he naturally would not admit defeat easily
even though he knew in his heart that the Qi family’s head must be very confident to make Qi Hansong raise such a condition, Huyan Wu nodded and said, “The reclusive families on the Primordial Divine Mountain usually won’t appear easily, much less casually interfere in the disputes of the mortal world.”
“If your Qi family wants to forcefully annex us, let’s see if the Gu family will agree first! After all, our four families are not lambs to be slaughtered!”
Huyan Wu had the same thought as Duan Zhengyao. He would not relent until the end.
Yin Lingfeng and Peng Haolong nodded in agreement, indicating that they would not give in easily.
“It seems like the four of you still need me to personally come and talk to you!”
At this moment, an old and dignified voice sounded.
Everyone looked over and saw a green-robed old man slowly walk into the hall.
“The head of the Qi family!”
Everyone could not help but exclaim.
Because the old man was the head of the Qi family, Qi Hongzhi!
When they saw Qi Hongzhi appear, Duan Zhengyao and the others held their breaths.
They and Qi Hongzhi were both peak Supremacy Realm cultivators.
But now, after just one exchange, they felt that it was difficult to resist Qi Hongzhi’s pressure.
This made the four of them feel extremely uneasy.
They had a feeling that tonight’s banquet would definitely cause the four great clans to suffer losses.
Qi Hongzhi came in front of Duan Zhengyao and the others. He looked around with his hands behind his back and smiled proudly.
“When you learned that my family produced a divine saber, you immediately came to congratulate us. I’m really grateful for your kindness!”
“To express my gratitude, I want to show this divine saber to everyone to express my gratitude!”
With that, he raised his right hand.
A blinding white light shot out with a bang, causing everyone’s eyes to hurt.
Immediately after, incomparably terrifying saber energy enveloped the entire place.
Under this blade energy,
Duan Zhengyao, Huyan Wu, and the others, who had the strongest cultivation base, felt their hearts tremble violently, and their bodies couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
Everyone looked up.
A golden hilt and an extremely domineering long saber appeared in Qi Hongzhi’s hand.
On the long saber, the saber light flashed. The saber force was like a dragon, and it was filled with the aura of a treasure.
It was a real peerless saber!
Qi Hongzhi circulated his true essence and his body immediately flashed with a white light that fused with the treasured saber.
Instantly, an indescribable terrifying pressure descended from the sky with rich saber energy.
“It’s really the aura of a quasi Emperor Realm cultivator!”
“It’s indeed very terrifying!”
At this moment, even Duan Zhengyao and the others could not help but cry out in shock.
Qi Hongzhi seemed to have already merged with the treasured saber, and his strength had increased explosively!
Qi Hongzhi took in everyone’s terrified expressions and arrogantly looked down at Duan Zhengyao and the others.
“What do you think of my saber?”
These threatening words made Duan Zhengyao and the others lower their heads.
In the past, even if the Qi family had the Gu family of the Primordial God Mountain as their backer, it was not that easy to attack the four great families.
After all, at that time, the Qi family was on par with any of the four great families.
If Qi Hongzhi wanted to attack, he had to get the Gu family’s support first.
But it was different now!
Qi Hongzhi had a divine saber in his hand and stepped into the quasi Emperor Realm.
He no longer needed to ask the Gu family for help first and could directly attack the four great families.
It could be said that tonight’s banquet was a trap that Duan Zhengyao and the others had walked into.
If they could not give Qi Hongzhi a satisfactory answer, the four of them probably wouldn’t be able to escape unscathed.
They exchanged looks.
Duan Zhengyao said, “The Qi family’s head’s saber is really a peerless saber. We’re impressed!”
Huyan Wu, Yin Lingfeng, and Peng Haolong nodded as well.
Qi Hongzhi saw that they all revealed looks of submission and nodded with a smile.
“Since Patriarch Duan and everyone thinks this saber is good, I’ll leave it here. We’ll study it carefully after we eat.”
With that, he sat down at the table and placed the knife beside him.
Although this treasured saber had not been refined to perfection, just the current saber’s energy and power were enough to intimidate the four great clans.
Therefore, Qi Hongzhi’s expression was extremely arrogant.
Duan Zhengyao and the others’ expressions tightened.
They understood very well that the time limit Qi Hongzhi had given was a meal’s worth of time.
He forced them to give a satisfactory answer within the time of a meal.
Thinking of this, the four of them sighed sadly. They really had to spend a lot of money today!
At this moment, a calm voice sounded.
“This knife is indeed very good, so you’re unworthy of it.”
Phew ~
Qi Hongzhi felt an indescribable force forcefully sever his connection with the treasured saber.
When he came back to his senses, the treasured saber flashed like a white light and flew towards the door.
In the blink of an eye, a handsome young man in white walked in from outside and held the treasured saber firmly in his hand.
Lin Xuan lowered his head to look at the knife in his hand and nodded slightly.
This was indeed the treasure that the Gu family had taken from the Donghuang Clan.
The legendary saber of the Donghuang Clan’s ancestor… the Donghuang Saber!
