Chapter 74: The Domineering Second Highness (Third Update)

Among the three personal disciples of the Seventh Peak Peak Master, in terms of a straightforward personality, being smooth in dealing with people, and having extensive friendships, it belonged to the Third Disciple.

But in terms of a fiery personality and the awe of fellow disciples, the Second Senior Sister was in the lead, incomparable. It wasn't just the Seventh Peak disciples who felt this way; other peaks were the same.

They mostly knew that the Seventh Peak's Second Highness had an extremely explosive temper, and her strange strength was even more exaggerated. A slight disagreement in words would lead to her taking action, and... over these years, the number of Foundation Establishment cultivators from various peaks who had been beaten up by her was too many.

Possessing astonishing strength herself and having such a monstrous background, there was no reason to be reasoned with in front of this Second Highness. Her domineering nature was as famous as her reputation throughout the entire Seven Blood Eyes.

Even some Elders encountered her on ordinary days and felt a headache, let alone ordinary disciples.

Especially her prestige, not only spreading in the sect but even more so on the sea. The number of sea pirates who died in her hands was unknown, and some small tribes would tremble just hearing her name.

Standing there at this moment, her momentum was shocking, suppressing all directions, making everyone feel immense pressure. Xu Qing was the same, a strong sense of crisis rising in his heart, as if facing a peerless fierce beast in the forbidden zone jungle.

The feeling she gave him was even stronger than when he saw Deacon Li that day.

The Jin Gang Sect Ancestor was far too inferior in front of her.

This made Xu Qing's vigilance reach the extreme, his body instinctively retreating a few steps, his breathing slightly rapid.

It was really because the sense of cruelty coming from the Second Senior Sister was too thick, terrifying to the extreme.

Even looking through the gaps beside her, the street outside was actually empty... It seemed no one was willing to appear in this vicinity at this time.

Only... the little fatty Huang Yan. He didn't have the slightest pressure, seeming to have succeeded in his scheme, excitement and agitation hanging all over his face.

At this moment, he ran over to the Second Senior Sister's side and spoke with a wronged expression.

"Senior Sister~~ It was this shop's shopkeeper and that stinky fish who said the things I gave you, Senior Sister, were stolen goods from the Jin Gang Sect. Senior Sister, I, Huang Yan, am upright, incomparably sincere, honest and devoted, gentle and considerate, and have only loved you, Senior Sister, in my whole life. It's fine if they slander me, I can endure it, but they cannot slander the gift I gave you, Senior Sister!"

"Slandering the gift I gave you, Senior Sister, this is slandering my eight years of feelings for you, Senior Sister!" The little fatty stood beside the Second Senior Sister, looking somewhat uncoordinated, like a child and an adult, regardless of height or thickness.

Fortunately, his belly was very large, and to some extent, it didn't look completely mismatched.

It was just that his opening caused everyone in the shop to be stunned for a moment, sucking in breaths one by one, their expressions each shocked and incomparably astonished.

These disciples of various peaks who were watching the show before all had their eyes widen, revealing disbelief, and even some were unthinkable. Zhang San in the crowd was the same.

And the shopkeeper's expression was completely dazed, muttering.

"Second Highness... is your Senior Sister?"

These words were a bit awkward, but they could also express the inner world of the shopkeeper at this moment, where countless horses were galloping past.

Everyone here knew Huang Yan; after all, he was considered famous in the Seventh Peak, but this fame mostly came from his "infatuation."

Everyone had talked about Huang Yan's affairs privately, knowing he had pursued a certain Senior Sister for eight years, and the gifts he sent could have bought several shops...

When talking about this in the past, most could guess that Huang Yan himself wasn't ordinary, which was why he could retain his wealth until now without dying, but more of the words contained irony. After all, they thought that a good man in the world shouldn't bow and scrape to please a woman like this.

But at this moment, whether it was Zhang San or the shopkeeper, or other disciples here, they all looked at the little fatty with unprecedented reverence in their shock, and some even had strong envy appearing in their eyes unconsciously.

Clearly... if it were such a Senior Sister, then they would also want one.

Let alone eight years, eighteen years, twenty-eight years would also be fine.

Xu Qing was also shocked in his heart. He looked at the little fatty Huang Yan and then at the Second Highness, his gaze somewhat dazed. It was really because he also hadn't expected that the one Huang Yan had pursued for eight years was actually the Seventh Peak's Second Highness.

And as for the reason why the little fatty forcibly took on this matter today, Xu Qing also had the answer: this was the other party intentionally making a scene to attract his Senior Sister over to satisfy his longing.

Xu Qing looked at the incomparably proud little fatty and then at the domineering and astonishing Second Highness, and fell silent.

At this moment, facing Huang Yan's grievance, the Second Highness raised her eyebrows slightly and walked forward. Passing by the Mermaid youth who was bowing his head on the side, she didn't say anything, just revealing a trace of contempt in her eyes.

Huang Yan, on the side, also learned to reveal contempt, lifting his chin and humming.

The gaze from the Second Highness greatly stimulated the Mermaid youth. His body trembled, seeming to be trying his best to restrain himself, but the paleness of his face still revealed the fear in his heart.

In his mind, he instinctively recalled the slaughter thirty years ago on Mermaid Island, where the other party's figure was filled with bloodthirst.

That was a grand competition of the Seventh Peak of the Seven Blood Eyes. Because of the great evil of the human race and the unyielding nature of his great Mermaid tribe, the Seventh Peak's competition battlefield was arranged in the Mermaid tribe's territory.

At the same time, this was also a suppression, and it was exactly after that time that the two sides became "allies" again.

Although later the Mermaid tribe faced several crises of extermination, the Seven Blood Eyes resolved them in time and provided many materials, but in the eyes of all the Mermaid tribe members, this was what the other party should have done. They felt that becoming an ally of the human race was in itself a disgrace.

Although countless emotions rolled in his heart, he still kept his head deeply bowed, not daring to look up, only roaring in his heart. He felt that their Mermaid tribe would sooner or later make the Seven Blood Eyes pay the price.

Seeing the other party bow his head, the Second Highness's contempt grew even more. She walked to Xu Qing's front and looked at him coldly.

Xu Qing took a deep breath, his expression solemn, and bowed with cupped fists.

"Greetings, Second Highness."

"Senior Sister, this is Xu Qing, my brother. This time, he was also implicated by me." Huang Yan put away the items he had just taken out, his expression carrying some pride when introducing him.

The Second Highness nodded, not paying attention to Xu Qing, and walked toward the counter. After arriving there, she swung the great sword in her hand, and amidst the shopkeeper's trembling, placed it directly on the counter with a bang.

This black great sword was too heavy. Although the wooden counter was quite sturdy, it collapsed as the great sword fell, making the sword tip press directly against the shopkeeper's belly, the cold light emitted making the shopkeeper's forehead sweat incessantly, his face incomparably pale, and he spoke in a trembling low voice.

"Second Highness, I..."

"You said my things were stolen goods?" The Second Senior Sister spoke indifferently.

The shopkeeper's whole body sweated even more, his back soaked through, his face full of bitterness, wailing in his heart. Today's matter, he had originally wanted to make a profit, but halfway through, the little fatty appeared, and he never dreamed that the little fatty's backer was such a great god.

He couldn't afford to provoke the person in front of him. He even felt that let alone himself, even the Deacon who arranged for him to do this probably wouldn't be willing to easily provoke the tyrannosaurus-like Second Senior Sister in front of him.

After all, this one was deeply doted on by the Seventh Master, like the apple of the Seventh Peak's eye.

Thus, he hurriedly spoke stutteringly.

"Mis... misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding, I saw it wrong, how could this possibly be stolen goods..."

Xu Qing watched this scene, a deep glint appearing in his eyes, understanding in his heart that strength was the eternal truth of this world. Especially the words of the Second Senior Sister that followed made him understand what was called domineering.

"You didn't see it wrong, these are indeed stolen goods. I was the one who moved the Jin Gang Sect. Do you have any opinions?" The Second Senior Sister spoke coldly, the sword in her hand pressing forward, instantly piercing the shopkeeper's clothes and touching his belly.

The shopkeeper trembled, sweat on his forehead increasing, looking submissive, not knowing how to respond.

"Tell the person behind you, the Jin Gang Sect matter was done by me. Also, go tell the Jin Gang Sect, within three days, come and compensate me. The gift must satisfy me."

In the Second Senior Sister's words, there wasn't a single threat, but everyone who heard it understood deeply that if the Jin Gang Sect didn't come to compensate, or if the gift's value wasn't enough, then... the Jin Gang Sect wouldn't exist in this world.

After this sentence fully displayed the Second Highness's domineering nature, she scanned the items scattered on the ground.

"Do you accept these?"

"Accept... I accept..." The shopkeeper hurriedly spoke, not daring to breathe, and hurriedly took out one hundred spirit stones. Afterward, seeing the Second Senior Sister's eyebrows raise, he gritted his teeth in trembling and took out another one hundred.

Two hundred spirit stones, all placed on the side, he squeezed out a smile toward Huang Yan and Xu Qing, his eyes carrying some pleading.

Not continuing to pay attention, the Second Senior Sister picked up the great sword that had smashed the counter and turned to walk outside. Passing by the Mermaid youth on the side, she spoke with disgust.

"Get lost, you're blocking my way, you smell like fish."

The Mermaid youth's body trembled even more, but finally, he retreated a few steps in silence.

"Respectfully send off the Second Highness!"

As the Second Highness walked to the door, everyone in the shop cupped their fists and spoke respectfully.

Xu Qing looked up, looked deeply at the Second Senior Sister's back, and also cupped his fists.

At this moment, Huang Yan's expression carried pride, scanned the silent crowd, and patted Xu Qing on the shoulder.

"See that? This is my Senior Sister, my goddess. Let's see who dares to slander us in the future."

"But you, kid, are decent. You didn't hesitate to take action for my sake and even wanted to take the blame for me. I've remembered this matter. Let me tell you, I, Huang Yan, repay kindness with kindness. I don't have any good things on me right now, but when I see good things later, I'll send them to you as a gift."

Huang Yan looked proud to the extreme. After speaking excitedly, he waved at Xu Qing and, without waiting for him to speak, ran out vigorously, chasing toward the Second Highness.

"Senior Sister, wait for me..."

Xu Qing's expression remained dazed. After a long while, he withdrew his gaze toward the door, his eyes scanning his own robe corner as if unintentionally, and then looked at the Mermaid youth whose expression was gloomy at this moment, a trace of dark glint flashing in his eyes, but quickly returning to normal.

He picked up the two hundred spirit stones given by the shopkeeper, and under the shopkeeper's bitter and fearful gaze, walked out of the shop without even looking at the Mermaid youth.

Until he walked out of the shop, Xu Qing tidied his robe, scanned his robe corner, and his gaze turned gloomy.

At the same time, the Mermaid youth inside the shop looked at Xu Qing's departing back, his expression ugly, his mood extremely bad today, and disgust in his eyes.

"People who have fought with me, even if they escape, few can still live. It's a pity I mostly don't get to see the scene of them dying."

Snorting coldly in his heart, the youth withdrew his gaze, flicked his sleeves, and walked out of the shop.

To him, Xu Qing was just an ant. Today's matter, if not for Huang Yan, he would definitely have been able to put the other party to death.

"People of the Seven Blood Eyes all deserve to die. This child stole my merit, and even more so deserves to die. Sooner or later, he's a dead man."

Three chapters, 12,000 words. Brothers and sisters, the little newbie has tried his best~~

Especially these few chapters, which seem easy but are very difficult to write, requiring three lines to interweave and move forward.

It needs to be kept from being messy, and also needs to write out the little fatty's thoughts, excitement, and the throwing out of the Second Senior Sister's baggage.

It also cannot let Xu Qing completely become the background, and needs to write out his caution and quick-wittedness.

There are also the different thoughts of the shopkeeper and the Mermaid youth from their respective positions, and at the same time, foreshadowing for the future needs to be buried.

Only in this way can the plot be lively, rather than becoming a pool of stagnant water.

Brothers and sisters, Er Gen has really put his heart into it. ===== CHAPTER 75 =====
