Chapter 1215
"If I take you away and you then abandon me, or if your father shows up later and you betray me, wouldn't I be doomed?" Heishanyang is not stupid; he won't fully trust their words— isn't that digging his own pit?
These two kids are not simple, nor are they the kind of simple kids; can the bloodline descendant of that kid be simple?
One cannot be deceived by their appearance; Heishanyang still clearly knows these two's personalities and understands their character, but he dares not fully trust them, mainly because he cannot guarantee whether they will scheme against him.
Heishanyang has certainly suffered his share of losses; it's impossible for him to fall into the same pit twice.
Chen Chuyang that brat is not easy to deal with; if these two kids go out and something happens, and I fail to protect them, then wouldn't I be doomed?
This is a major problem; their strength is indeed not weak, but here in Tianwai, a True Person Realm cultivator is nothing in this region— even self‑defense is a stretch, let alone undergoing trials.
"No way, we're not that kind of person." Chen Qinglian replied, slapping his chest and speaking loudly.
Huang Yan glanced at Heishanyang, then at the two of them, and still felt it would be better not to take them away; without the master's nod, hastily taking them along would easily lead to trouble, and he feared that if something did happen, they wouldn't be able to take responsibility.
After all, these two are the master's sons, the master's reverse scale; they should just look after themselves and not meddle in other affairs. Thus, Huang Yan gave Heishanyang a look, signaling it not to agree and to definitely refuse these two.
Heishanyang understood his glance, instantly knowing Huang Yan's worry—not only him, but Huang Yan was also afraid.
How could one not be afraid? If one truly provoked Chen Chuyang's anger, the consequences would be unthinkable.
"Cough cough cough, Qinglian kid, well, I can't control that; I'm worried your father will blame me, I won't be able to just walk away, and besides, the outside is too dangerous— even I can't guarantee your safety."
"If something happens to you, how am I to explain to your father?"
"You might as well give up on that idea; I won't agree to you."
Heishanyang thought it over and still refused their proposal; he dared not take the risk.
Chen Qinglian frowned: "Heishanyang, you needn't worry; we will protect ourselves, you only need to take us out, and we brothers guarantee you that nothing will happen."
"My elder brother and I joining forces, we fear no one; even if we encounter danger, the two of us brothers can escape."
Qi Haoyang's peripheral glance swept over Huang Yan, who quickly turned his head so as not to let him see.
"Your concern is clear to us; although our strength isn't great, we can still defend ourselves, and besides, we're going to the Huang Family, not elsewhere— isn't the Huang Family safe enough?"
"Once we stay in the Huang Family, we'll cultivate gradually and begin to follow their actions— what danger could we possibly encounter?"
Qi Haoyang tried to sway Heishanyang, but Heishanyang shook his head: "Forget it."
Although Qinglong Daoren and Chen Chuyang both intended to let them go to the Huang Family, it's not now; it would still be better not to intervene.
It can leave on its own, or slip away quietly; if something happens, Heishanyang can easily flee back.
Chen Qinglian and the other won't do; their strength is ultimately too weak, and unlike me, they lack the divine ability to escape— no matter what they encounter, if it wants to run, not many can hold it.
"If you want to leave, you must obtain Qinglong's consent; otherwise, I cannot possibly take you away."
After saying that, Heishanyang turned and left, not wanting to waste words with them.
Seeing that, Chen Qinglian and Qi Haoyang exchanged a glance and gave a helpless smile.
Xinran Zhanglao nearby, seeing the situation, knew trouble had come to him again and hurriedly said: "You don't need to look at me; I can't help you."
"My strength isn't sufficient to protect you, and besides, I don't want to leave Longshe Shan."
Xinran Zhanglao also couldn't do anything, and didn't want to keep helping them.
Chen Qinglian pleaded: "Young lady, you are my father's woman— please help us."
"Please."
Xinran Zhanglao looked at Chen Qinglian, then at Qi Haoyang, who said: "Xinran young lady, how about this: you help us, and afterward we will treat you with filial respect."
"This." Xinran Zhanglao's heart moved; they had said all that— if he didn't help, wouldn't that be...?
Gritting his teeth, Xinran Zhanglao nodded: "I'll do my best; I'll go talk to your father and try to persuade him as much as possible."
"All right, thank you, young lady." Chen Qinglian's words were sweet; having her take the lead, there's a ninety percent chance of success.
Several people watched Xinran Zhanglao head to Qinglong Daoren's cave dwelling, and in unison let out a sigh of relief; Huang Yan also sighed in relief, for he had been terrified that the two would keep demanding he take them away— fortunately the master had set up a formation that prevented them from leaving.
Without the master's permission, no one can leave.
While feeling relieved inside, Qi Haoyang placed his hand on his shoulder and gave a slight smile: "Huang Yan, just now you seemed to be giving Heishanyang a look— were you trying to get him to refuse us?"
"Could it be that you don't want to take the two of us away?"
Upon hearing that, Chen Qinglian beside them turned his head and stared at Huang Yan.
At that moment, Huang Yan felt a chill run down his back and broke into a cold sweat.
"Gurgle."
After a difficult swallow, Huang Yan explained: "Listen to my explanation—I didn't mean that; I was asking it to help."
"Don't misunderstand me— how could I possibly not want to take you away?"
"It's Heishanyang senior who's not coming through; you can't blame me for that."
Putting on a look of grievance, Huang Yan admitted his acting was pretty good and should be able to fool the two of them.
Qi Haoyang gave a cold chuckle: "Really?"
"I don't think so; I'm still quite clear on what you're thinking in your heart."
"If you don't want to take us away, you can just say so— no need for these little tricks."
Upon hearing that, Chen Qinglian's face gradually fell; compared to Huang Yan, he still trusted his elder brother more, whose words are completely truthful— he could never deceive him, nor engage in such right‑and‑wrong maneuvers.
Drawing his sword, the blade left the sheath, sword qi fierce.
"Huang Yan, you had better speak the truth; I really don't want to draw my sword on you."
The sword could strike at any moment; Huang Yan broke out in a cold sweat, hastily waving his hands: "Really, I swear I don't mean that, Chen Qinglian— please don't draw your sword, put it down, okay?"
The blade reached his neck, ready to strike at any moment.
Huang Yan was terrified to the extreme— this person would really act.
Let him strike, and I would surely suffer terribly.
Huang Yan dared not gamble, nor dare to act tough.
