Chapter 284: I Too Am a Person of Shu Mountain

~7 min read 1,318 words

Zi Yan's gaze was cold, she said: "They are indeed not people of Shu Mountain, but they can be considered our own, not outsiders."

Hearing Zi Yan's words, the young man couldn't help but chuckle, saying: "Since they are not disciples of Shu Mountain, how can they be considered our own? Could it be that this person is your husband?"

Zi Yan coldly said: "You guessed right, he is indeed my fiancé; let me introduce you to him—his name is Qin Yang, you should have heard of his name."

Upon hearing the name Qin Yang, the young man's face drastically changed; he instinctively stepped back.

A pair of eyes stared at Qin Yang, saying: "You are that Qin Yang from Baiyun Guan."

"Not bad, you've heard of my name?" Qin Yang gave a faint smile.

The young man Xī le yī kǒu qì, then said in a low voice: "Qin Yang, I know you are strong, but this is a matter of Shu Mountain, it has nothing to do with you; you'd better not bring trouble upon yourself."

Qin Yang smiled and said: "Since it's a matter of Shu Mountain, it's also my matter; didn't you just hear Zi Yan say that? I am her fiancé, naturally also a person of Shu Mountain, so Shu Mountain's affairs are naturally my affairs."

The young man's expression slightly changed; he stared at Zi Yan and said: "How have I never heard that you have a fiancé?"

Zi Yan lightly said: "Must I tell you about my affairs?"

The young man shook his head and said: "Naturally not needed."

"Since you know it's not needed, why don't you move aside?"

The young man stood there hesitating; after thinking, he stepped aside. The young man clearly knew he was no match for Qin Yang; even if senior sect elders came, they couldn't defeat Qin Yang.

Qin Yang's fearsome reputation shook the entire cultivation world; now Qin Yang has come to Shu Mountain, participating in Shu Mountain's affairs as Zi Yan's fiancé, which for Shu Mountain is likely a disaster rather than a blessing.

Ancestor Ning Qi, who wants to seize the position of sect leader of Shu Mountain, probably won't find it so easy.

After Qin Yang and his group left, the young man unleashed a jade talisman, informing Ning Qi of Qin Yang's arrival.

Ning Qi received the jade talisman; upon seeing Qin Yang's name, his expression slightly changed.

Initially Qin Yang gave him too much shock; Ning Qi clearly knew this was a tough opponent; although he had already refined two immortal swords, defeating Qin Yang would not be easy.

Does Qin Yang still have hidden cards? No one knows; moreover, Baiyun has not died, nor has he attained the Dao.

In that case, even if they killed Qin Yang, they would fear attracting Baiyun; for them, that moment would be the most terrifying.

"This is getting troublesome." Ning Qi said.

Hearing Ning Qi's words, a Sǎnxiān spoke up, saying lightly: "This is an internal matter of Shu Mountain, unrelated to his Baiyun Guan; if Qin Yang insists on meddling, then kill him; Baiyun is indeed fearsome, but Shu Mountain is not easy to bully; if Baiyun insists on seeking death, we don't mind granting his wish—at worst we suffer some losses and use some hidden cards."

Ning Qi gave that Sǎnxiān a deep look; he felt some doubt—does Shu Mountain still have hidden cards? Isn't the Sǎnxiān the greatest hidden card of Shu Mountain? From the other's words he could tell that Shu Mountain still has many things he doesn't know.

It seems Shu Mountain is not as simple as imagined; moreover, the other side does not trust oneself as imagined, accept oneself, return to Shu Mountain—perhaps they have their own considerations; from now on, one must act more cautiously.

In case the other side wants to abandon the ally after achieving their goal, one should have a precaution.

"Shall we go look for trouble with Qin Yang now?" Ning Qi asked.

That Sǎnxiān thought for a moment and said: "For now we don't need to seek trouble with Ye Ning; let's see what he actually came to do."

Ning Qi nodded and said: "If that's the case, then we'll wait and see; however, senior brother, since you're confident in dealing with Qin Yang, I won't worry."

"Don't worry, Shu Mountain isn't as weak as you think; you'll find out later." That Sǎnxiān gave a faint smile.

He is very confident, not taking Qin Yang too seriously; in his mind, the greatest enemy is merely Baiyun; even if it is Baiyun, they are confident they can deal with him.

Therefore, he is somewhat nonchalant about Qin Yang's arrival; although he cares, he does not attach great importance to it.

Ning Qi clearly felt this.

When Qin Yang and his group saw Zi Changsheng, Zi Changsheng couldn't help but frown, and he said in a deep voice: "How did you come? Zi Yan, I told you not to come back, didn't I?"

Zi Yan pursed her lips and said in a Bùmǎn tone: "Old geezer, aren't you treating me as family, or as your daughter?"

Zi Changsheng laughed despite himself, he said with a wry smile: "How could that be? You are my most beloved precious daughter."

"Then Wèishénme don't you let me come back? Could it be that you think I'm so heartless that, with my parents in danger, I could stay outside peacefully avoiding danger?"

Zi Yan questioned.

This made Zi Changsheng a bit speechless; he hadn't thought of this point.

It was merely an instinct to keep Zi Yan in a safe place; now thinking about it, from Zi Yan's standpoint, coming back is the most normal choice, most in line with human nature.

With both parents in danger, how could she possibly stay outside alone? Avoiding danger by oneself does not conform to common human sentiment.

"Qin Yang, you've come too, but you're a person of Baiyun Guan, not a disciple of Shu Mountain; your presence is useless, you cannot participate in Shu Mountain's internal affairs; however, being here, you can protect Zi Yan from harm, and if anything happens, I can rest easy."

Zi Changsheng's gaze fell upon Qin Yang.

Qin Yang smiled: "Who says I'm not a person of Shu Mountain?"

Zi Changsheng looked doubtful, glancing at his daughter.

Qin Yang said with a smile: "Zi Yan has already announced outwardly that I am her fiancé; now I too can be considered a person of Shu Mountain."

Zi Changsheng Zhènjīng for a moment; he hadn't expected Zi Yan to announce Qin Yang as her fiancé to help him—once this news spreads, Zi Yan will have to follow Qin Yang from now on, which means Zi Yan, to help him, has staked her lifelong happiness.

Zi Changsheng was about to say something when his wife pulled him back, telling him not to say more.

A voice transmission from his wife reached Zi Changsheng's ear: "Don't you see? Zi Yan likes Qin Yang; now, taking this opportunity to change their relationship into an engagement is a good thing—you must absolutely not stand in the way."

Zi Changsheng stared for a moment, then realized, and he said with a smile: "Alright, since you've come, I'm even more confident; those few fellows who want to plot to seize my position as sect leader have overestimated themselves—this time I'll give them a profound lesson; and there's that Ning Qi, this traitor! This time I won't let him off."

"Ning Qi is as good as dead." Qin Yang also said.

That fellow, who once together with the Hunting God besieged and tried to kill him, fled with two immortal swords, has long been remembered by Qin Yang.

Originally I was worried about not being able to find the opponent; I never expected the opponent to come to my doorstep himself.
