335 Wanggu Chessboard (1)
“Xu Qing, this is my Great Expansion’s residence. Why are you here?!” The breathing of the youth in the blue robe sped up when he heard Xu Qing. His expression also darkened as he shouted in a low voice.
In reality, ever since Night Dove was destroyed last night and Xu Qing’s heavenly saber killed Night Dove’s three fires black-robed man and suppressed the disciples of the Soaring Cloud Sword Sect, he had already realized that the situation wasn’t good.
This was because no matter how he looked at it, he seemed to be the only one left who had made a deal with Night Dove.
Hence, other than being nervous, he immediately invited his colleagues from the Spirit Dawn Valley and the Heavenly Treasure Sect here just in case.
Seeing that Xu Qing had arrived and called out his name, Zhou Qifan’s heart couldn’t help but sink.
Xu Qing looked at the person who spoke. When he came, he had looked at the information on the other party. He usually kept a low profile and rarely went out other than challenging the Fourth Peak, so there were not many photos of him.
“I am here on the orders of the sect to capture the person who traded with the Night Dove, Zhou Qifan.” As he spoke, Xu Qing took a step forward and instantly got close to Zhou Qifan, and grabbed him.
A cold glint flashed in Zhou Qifan’s eyes. With a boom, the red clouds on his robe instantly erupted, forming red lines in front of him that quickly formed an array formation that ruthlessly suppressed Xu Qing. At the same time, he retreated and let out a low shout.
“Protector Zhang, fellow Daoists, please help me!”
Almost at the instant he spoke, Xu Qing’s right hand had already come into contact with the red cloud array formation. A loud bang echoed in the air as the Golden Crow manifested behind Xu Qing and charged forward. Immediately, the array formation collapsed and all the red clouds were sucked into the Golden Crow’s mouth.
As for the Dao Protector behind Zhou Qifan, he revealed a look of hesitation. He sighed and walked out. However, as Xu Qing waved his hand, the sect’s array formation arrived. The Dao Protector didn’t resist at all and borrowed the power of the array formation to retreat until he was far away.
He didn’t want to be expelled like the Dao Protector of the Bizarre Hunting Sect. He could naturally tell that the Seven Blood Eyes were capturing people. It was useless to obstruct them.
Moreover, if he was expelled, he would lose face, and it was impossible for Zhou Qifan’s life to be in danger. He would only be suppressed for a while. Why should he risk his life in vain?
Hence, with the help of the sect’s array formation, he quickly retreated.
As for the two heaven’s chosens from the Spirit Dawn Valley and the Heavenly Treasure Sect, after they glanced at Xu Qing, they retreated separately and didn’t help.
They didn’t have the obligation to help. The Seven Sects Alliance was only an alliance, not a sect.
Moreover, they could tell that Xu Qing had arrived with resolution. Even if they helped, it would be useless. Since that was the case, why should they become enemies with Xu Qing?
After all, they had already given Zhou Qifan face by coming here personally. It wasn’t like they had a close relationship. This was enough.
Xu Qing’s future was limitless like the rising sun. Moreover, the conflicts between the sects had nothing to do with individuals. If they could form a good relationship with Xu Qing, it would naturally be more worth it.
As they retreated, the two of them cupped their fists slightly at Xu Qing, indicating that they wanted to draw the line between them and Zhou Qifan.
Seeing this, Zhou Qifan’s expression changed but he didn’t say anything.
This was also within his expectations. In reality, it would be best if the two could make a move. Even if they didn’t, his goal could be considered to be achieved as he wanted more people to bear witness to his capture.
This way, after he was imprisoned, his life wouldn’t be in danger.
With so many people watching, his sect’s reputation would definitely be damaged.
His sect would then react faster to get back the lost reputation, speeding up the recovery of his freedom.
These people all had different thoughts. Just as they were all thinking about themselves, Xu Qing took the second step and arrived in front of Zhou Qifan. Amidst Zhou Qifan’s anger, Xu Qing lifted his right hand and was about to grab him.
“I’ll go with you!” Zhou Qifan said loudly.
He felt that it was enough to lay the groundwork. There was no need for him to go through the beatings and be captured like a dead dog. That would be too embarrassing. He couldn’t just obediently follow the other party immediately.
Xu Qing raised his brows.
When Zhou Qifan saw this, his heart trembled. However, his expression still maintained a stubborn and angry posture, and his words were filled with explanation.
“Xu Qing, although I bought treasure-nurturers, it’s not for my own use. I don’t have that habit. I bought them on behalf of some people in the sect.”
“Also, I’ve already arranged for those treasure-nurturers to be safely released today. I’ve also gotten someone to send a list of those treasure-nurturers to your Homicide Department. Calculating the time, they should have arrived by now.”
Zhou Qifan took a deep breath with a determined expression and quickly spoke.
Xu Qing’s expression was strange. At that moment, the voice transmission jade slip on his body vibrated. He swept his perception over and a message from the Homicide Department appeared in his mind.
“Director, someone sent a list of treasure-nurturers in the name of the Great Expansion Dao Palace’s Zhou Qifan. There’s also a commendation for the Homicide Department’s capture of Night Dove. In this commendation, there are 2 million spirit stones and an unknown pill. The other party said that this is an aperture opening pill.”
Seeing Xu Qing checking the jade slip, Zhou Qifan heaved a sigh of relief in his mind. However, his expression still revealed stubbornness and anger.
Xu Qing stared deeply at Zhou Qifan before slowly putting down his right hand.
“Let’s go.” Xu Qing turned and walked out.
