Chapter 473: Chapter 472: The Hot-Tempered Wang Changchun


Since the pass was in need of year-round guardianship, a village had been constructed nearby, providing houses for those stationed and patrolling to live in.


Qin Yanyang had thus been arranged to rest in one of the wooden buildings.


Guards patrolled and kept watch around the wooden building, with even Chen Liangzhong and Mo Li residing in the opposite building, surveilling Qin Yanyang.


Before the people from the Eight Great Forces gathered and decided how to deal with Qin Yanyang, they wouldn’t possibly let her leave.


Three hours after the message had been sent by eagle, Chen Liangzhong opened his eyes within the wooden building.


Mo Li immediately opened his eyes as well.


Both sets of eyes met, and Mo Li said, "According to the time, the people from Giant Sword Manor of Nan Zhanbu Continent should have arrived."


Chen Liangzhong nodded and said, "That’s right, but it’s uncertain who from Giant Sword Manor will be sent here."


After a moment of thought, Mo Li said, "Among those juniors from before, the one from Giant Sword Manor was Wang Ruilin, the grandson of Wang Changchun. It’s almost certain that Wang Changchun will make the trip personally."


Chen Liangzhong’s eyes lit up as he said, "Exactly, if Wang Changchun comes personally, given his temper, he’s likely to be the first to settle scores with that girl."


As they were talking, suddenly, they both looked up.


A sensation as if being scanned by a disdainful gaze abruptly manifested.


"Speaking of the devil, and he shall appear," Chen Liangzhong said with a smile, standing up and striding out of the wooden building.


With a grave expression, Mo Li hurriedly followed him out.


In just a moment, a dark shadow in the northern sky grew larger, and a violent aura spread out from the heavens, causing an unexplainable trepidation in those present.


Zuo Wenjun’s voice then sounded, "Brother Wang has arrived swiftly!"


"Where is the demoness?" A robust voice traveled from the sky.


In just a moment, the dark shadow had already appeared above the village, and amidst the howling wind, the person instantly landed on the ground, less than ten meters from Mo Li and Chen Liangzhong.


The newcomer was nearly two meters tall, with a full beard and a pair of eyes as large as a bull’s, glaring fiercely.


He wore a black robe, and although his hair and beard were graying, he looked vigorous and full of vitality, much younger compared to Chen Liangzhong, Zuo Wenjun, and Mo Li.


This man was none other than the current manor owner of Giant Sword Manor, Wang Changchun.


"Master Wang!"


Mo Li and Chen Liangzhong greeted Wang Changchun with clasped fists as a form of salutation.


Wang Changchun immediately responded.


By that time, Zuo Wenjun had also arrived and after exchanging pleasantries, Wang Changchun cut to the chase, pointing to the wooden building where Qin Yanyang was and asked, "Is the demoness there?"


Seeing him so domineering and brimming with killing intent, referring to Qin Yanyang as the demoness over and over, Zuo Wenjun couldn’t help but smile wryly and said, "Qin Yanyang is inside there."


Wang Changchun snorted coldly and commanded, "What an arrogant act. Several of us have come personally to this place, yet you, a demoness, show no respect or manners, not coming out to greet us promptly!"


Inside the building, Qin Yanyang’s voice came out cold as ice, "What a bold tone you have, can you represent the entire Hidden Sect? If so, then I might as well come out to see you, how about that?"


Wang Changchun became furious and angrily retorted, "Absurd! Even if I cannot represent the entire Hidden Sect, I am still the current manor owner of Giant Sword Manor. You are a junior and yet, knowing I am here, you do not come out to meet me—that’s preposterous!"


His voice boomed like a bell, resounding forcefully, releasing a strong and unrestrained pressure, attempting to make the other party aware of his prowess.


Inside the wooden building, Qin Yanyang steadfastly guarded her mind against this invisible pressure, and scoffed, "I am aware of the principle of respecting the old and loving the young. However, if I encounter someone who is being unreasonable due to their age and lacking in respect, then there is no need to bother with them."


"Impudent!"


Wang Changchun, enraged, flung his sleeve, and a fierce gust of wind rushed toward the wooden building.


Crack!


The wooden door shattered upon impact, and as everyone looked inside, they saw Qin Yanyang sitting cross-legged on the soft cushions, her phoenix eyes snapping open and shooting icy glares.


Wang Changchun met the piercing cold gaze and felt a slight jolt within his heart, "What a sharp look, what a powerful aura."


He silently praised her, feeling that very few women among the various powers of the Hidden Sect could compare to this girl before him.


The outside world must have truly been blessed by great fortune to have produced such an exceptional girl.


Qin Yanyang slowly stood up and strode out.


Confronting four Divine Travel Realm experts, Qin Yanyang remained neither servile nor overbearing, with her aura at full display; she turned her gaze to Wang Changchun and asked, "What do you think you should do?"


Wang Changchun saw that she didn’t show the slightest hint of panic in the face of him and couldn’t help but admire her, though he rebuked, "It is I who should be asking you what you intend to do! Do you, a mere girl, really think you can represent the entire outside world? Do you realize how much trouble you’re causing?"


Qin Yanyang knitted her brows and replied, "There’s no need for you to worry about this matter; I am clear on what I am doing."


Wang Changchun huffed, "Ignorant fool, do you think the Hidden Sect, which has remained independent and above the outside world for years, can be threatened by a mere girl like you?"


Qin Yanyang’s face showed disappointment as she looked at Wang Changchun, "Can you represent the entire Hidden Sect?"


Wang Changchun shook his head, "I cannot. But among those young people you captured, there is my grandson, as well as another disciple from my Giant Sword Manor."


Qin Yanyang replied indifferently, "I know that, those nineteen are backed by nearly all the aristocratic families and Sects of the Hidden Sect; it is quite normal for there to be people from your Giant Sword Manor."


Wang Changchun shouted angrily, "If that’s the case, why don’t you release them now that I have personally come here?"


Qin Yanyang laughed as if amused, looking at him as one would a fool, "Being ugly isn’t your fault, but wishing too beautifully is unacceptable. In front of me, Qin Yanyang, you don’t have that much face."


"Nonsense, do you really think I wouldn’t dare to lay a hand on you?" Wang Changchun was furious, his eyes filled with killing intent.


With his temperament, if not for the Flying Eagle message explaining the stakes, he would have attacked Qin Yanyang upon arrival.


Now that he had spoken thus far, he felt he had given Qin Yanyang enough face, yet he did not expect that the girl would be so defiant and arrogant. He decided to resolve the issue in his own way.


"If I feared death, I wouldn’t have come here. But you should think carefully, should I die, not only will none of those nineteen outside survive, the entire Hidden Sect will also face the danger of collapse. With the entire Hidden Sect as my funeral accompaniment, what have I to fear?" Qin Yanyang, sensing Wang Changchun’s murderous intent, was inwardly alarmed and hurriedly spoke out.


If it were a one-on-one fight, she couldn’t win against any of the four Divine Travel Realm experts before her, so her coming alone to the Hidden Sect never intended to overpower the other party with force to resolve the issue.


Her tactic was not about brute force.


You can kill me, but at a price you cannot bear.


I have the courage to perish together, do you?


Wang Changchun did not want to be intimidated by Qin Yanyang; he scoffed and took a step forward, "You, a mere girl, cannot threaten me."


The sharp killing intent grew stronger; he wanted to capture Qin Yanyang and did not even deign to employ Divine Thought in his attack.


However, just as he was about to make his move, a figure flashed. Zuo Wenjun blocked his path.


Wang Changchun frowned secretly, thinking you’re truly foolish, I wouldn’t be unaware of the greater situation; I just wanted to discipline this girl a bit, perhaps it would turn the situation around?


"Master Wang, hold on, this matter concerns the life and death of the entire Hidden Sect, it is not only a matter for your Giant Sword Manor. We must wait for the representatives of all the aristocratic families and Sects to arrive before deciding how to deal with this girl," Zuo Wenjun was genuinely worried that Wang Changchun might deal a fatal blow to Qin Yanyang that would lead to an irreversible situation, he hurriedly said.


"Brother Zuo, please step aside, I know what to do," Wang Changchun’s demeanor was unstoppable as he stared at Zuo Wenjun.


Zuo Wenjun’s heart tightened, and just as he was about to speak, his expression drastically changed, "No, it can’t be!"


At the same moment, Qin Yanyang suddenly let out a muffled grunt as if struck by a heavy blow, her body swiftly drifting backward.


Mo Li flashed forward towards Qin Yanyang.


Zuo Wenjun stared fixedly at Wang Changchun, his voice filled with angry growl, "How could you do this?"


Even Chen Liangzhong’s expression was solemn as he fixed his gaze on Wang Changchun, saying firmly, "Master Wang, you cannot kill her!"
