Chapter 118

~5 min read 828 words

Jiang Duanping flew into a rage.

He sprang to his feet in one swift motion.

His eyes were filled with killing intent.

075 - The Might of the Qinglong Society! (Subscribe, please)

"Second brother, don't be reckless!"

He watched as his own second brother was about to draw his blade and charge out mid-sentence.

Jiang Renting hurriedly spoke up to stop him.

Under the latter's displeased gaze, he offered earnest, well-meant advice.

"Don't be in a rush to make a move later. First, let's see whether they're friend or foe."

"The current situation in the Great Sui is unclear. We mustn't act rashly!"

Jiang Duanping heard this.

Although he was still a bit unhappy inside.

Yet, looking at his elder brother's solemn and serious gaze.

He ultimately suppressed his anger and nodded.

"Let's go. We'll step out and meet them first!"

Seeing that his words had taken effect.

Jiang Renting let out a hearty laugh and strode out with long, vigorous steps.

Yet a trace of caution flashed through his heart.

Because outside the door were several dozen skilled fighters.

The visitors had actually managed to take down their men without the two brothers noticing in the slightest.

One could imagine their strength was absolutely no weak matter!

Seeing this, Jiang Duanping hurried after him.

Not long after.

The two men arrived outside the main gate.

But the scene before them gave them some surprise.

They saw a group of their subordinates sprawled haphazardly around, wailing nonstop.

And in the distance, two figures stood quietly.

Their clothes weren't even disheveled.

Let alone stained with dust or blood!

"A bunch of disgraceful wastes, get lost at once!"

He coldly barked an order at them.

Jiang Renting reached out to hold back his furious second brother beside him.

He turned his head, restored his smile, and raised his hands in a clasped-fist salute.

"Might I ask the two of you your esteemed names?"

"What is the purpose of seeking out the two of us brothers?"

Though he spoke with a smile.

That smiling, genial appearance.

Yet gave one the feeling of a dagger hidden behind a smile.

"Qinglong Society, September seventeenth!"

"Qinglong Society, September twentieth!"

He automatically ignored his smile.

Yan Shisan and Ye Gucheng replied coldly.

What?!

Qinglong Society?!!

Jiang Renting was startled by the words, his pupils contracting sharply.

A stormy sea surged within his heart.

Beside him.

Jiang Duanping's expression hardened, his whole body tensing instinctively.

His eyes were full of wariness.

With the exposure of the Heavenly Dao Golden List.

How could they still not know of the Qinglong Society's might and terror!

But what left them somewhat puzzled was.

Why would the Qinglong Society, always as elusive as a dragon showing its head but never its tail, come looking for the two of them?

Straightening his expression, Jiang Renting voiced the doubt in his heart.

"So it's the esteemed lords of the Qinglong Society."

"May I ask what instruction the two lords have for us brothers?"

While speaking.

His posture was lowered to an extreme degree.

Not showing the slightest trace of being the master of the World Society.

"Hand over the Emotionless Heavenly Scripture, or the World Society shall be annihilated!"

Yan Shisan's tone was icy, every word measured.

Before the words had even faded.

In an instant.

Jiang Renting and Jiang Duanping's expressions changed abruptly.

Their bodies trembled faintly along with it.

Especially Jiang Duanping, his fists clenched tight, barely able to suppress the fury in his heart!

As martial artists.

The cultivation art they practiced was the very foundation of their livelihood.

Let alone casually showing it to others, even family members weren't necessarily allowed to see it.

Yet Yan Shisan demanded the cultivation art without a second thought.

How could the two brothers possibly accept that?

If not for the wariness they still held toward the Qinglong Society.

Perhaps just on the strength of that one sentence alone, the two brothers would have erupted and struck!

But even though they restrained the impulse in their hearts.

The brothers' faces were still dark enough to drip water!

For a moment.

The atmosphere in the field grew taut as a drawn bow.

"Apologies, the Heartless Heaven Scripture is the ultimate art my brother and I rely on to survive."

"Please choose a different request — as long as we can fulfill it, we will not refuse!"

Jiang Renting smoothed his expression.

And declined in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.

If not for his excessive wariness of the Qinglong Society.

Given his usual way of handling things.

He would long since have been unable to stop himself from calling on everyone to swarm and attack!

But the more it was a moment like this, the calmer his mind became.

He knew.

If he truly did such a thing.

Given the Qinglong Society's terrifying power.

Perhaps tomorrow, the Nine Provinces Continent would never again hear news of the Heaven and Earth Society.
