Chapter 1310: Chapter 1309: Rescuing the Ancient Witch Clan Tribe
Blood trickled from the corner of Jiang Guangming’s mouth as he looked at Qin Hao with a fierce tone: "You’re doomed for daring to kill someone from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion."
"Slap, slap"
Qin Hao slapped him twice directly, the loud sound echoing far away.
The onlookers were dumbfounded; he was trampling on the dignity of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion by slapping an outer elder in public, showing no respect for the Pavilion whatsoever.
"Speak, where are the members of the Ancient Giant Clan?" Qin Hao’s eyes were cold, sharp, and compelling.
Jiang Guangming remained silent.
Qin Hao kicked his dantian, crippling his cultivation on the spot: "It doesn’t matter if you don’t speak. I have some poisonous insects here, and I’ll just use you for an experiment today. I want to see if they really will devour all your blood essence, letting you die from the bites of ten thousand insects."
As soon as he finished speaking, black bugs appeared in Qin Hao’s hand. These were all illusions created by his Spiritual Energy, but Jiang Guangming couldn’t see through them.
Jiang Guangming’s face turned pale: "They are in the branch of our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion now."
"Take us there!" Qin Hao said in a flat tone.
At this moment, Tian Hui had also shrunk his form. Even so, he was over three meters tall and still a giant.
He followed Qin Hao’s group and quickly arrived at the branch of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion in Sword Saint City. This was a branch base with many guards from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion inside.
These guards dared not stop Qin Hao and his group, after all, even the outer elder had been defeated, and they were no match for them.
In the branch base of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, Qin Hao found Tian Hui’s clansmen. They were imprisoned in the dungeon, all three hundred or so clansmen without missing one.
"Clan Leader, are you alright?" Tian Hui immediately rushed over upon seeing his clansmen.
The clan leader of Yu Ming Tribe looked slightly stunned when he saw Tian Hui and Qin Hao: "Young master, did you save us? Hello, my name is Shuiyang, the clan leader of the tribe."
The clan leader of Yu Ming Tribe remembered Qin Hao; last time when the tribe was attacked, it was Qin Hao and two women who rescued their tribe.
"Clan Leader Shuiyang, this is not a place to talk. Let’s leave here first." Qin Hao said with a smile.
Shuiyang quickly nodded, leading the clansmen out of the branch base. Qin Hao took them out of the city, and on the way, he curiously asked: "Clan Leader Shuiyang, how did you get caught by the people of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion?"
Shuiyang sighed: "At first, we migrated and moved to another place, not knowing we would accidentally encounter people from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion. They then sent people to arrest us, and eventually, only Tian Hui managed to escape."
Qin Hao asked in confusion: "Pardon my boldness, but why are these forces always capturing members of the Ancient Giant Clan?"
Shuiyang paused: "Young master, you don’t know?"
Qin Hao shook his head: "I come from the Southern Continent and am not very familiar with many things in the Central Continent."
A trace of surprise flashed in Shuiyang’s eyes: "So Mr. Qin is from the Southern Continent, no wonder you don’t know these things. Our Ancient Giant Clan originally lived in the Northern Continent, but the hunt there is more severe because those major forces say our blood can unlock certain secret realms and relics in the Ancient Demon Battlefield."
Qin Hao was startled: "There’s actually such a thing? I never imagined that people could do anything for treasure, truly worthy of being top forces."
Shuiyang let out a long sigh, his heart filled with mixed emotions. They had already fled from the Northern Continent to the Central Continent, but still couldn’t escape from being hunted down.
Even when hiding in the endless wilderness, they were still found.
The ancient Giant Clan used to have many clansmen in the Northern Continent, but after prolonged hunting, their numbers have drastically decreased, especially in the Northern Continent, where they are almost unseen. All the Ancient Giant Clan members have migrated away.
Qin Hao looked at Shuiyang and Tian Hui and others, saying: "Clan Leader Shuiyang, what are your plans for the future?"
Shuiyang sighed deeply: "I don’t know either, no matter where we hide, people will chase us. I don’t know where to take the clansmen."
The clansmen behind him showed sad expressions upon hearing his words. After hiding for so many years, they were also very tired, extremely tired.
Su Xuanji and Cang Tai felt sorry for their predicament, but they couldn’t help much in this matter. The Ten Thousand Demon Sacred Mountain was also not a place for the descendants of the Ancient Witch Clan.
Qin Hao thought for a moment and said: "I have an idea, would Clan Leader Shuiyang like to hear it?"
Shuiyang quickly said: "Feel free to speak, Mr. Qin. You are our benefactor."
Qin Hao: "I might be able to offer you a place to stay. Would you be willing to go?"
The people of Yu Ming Tribe were slightly taken aback by his words, and Ning Ziyuan and others were also taken aback, not expecting Qin Hao to say such a thing.
Shuiyang curiously asked: "What place is Mr. Qin referring to? Is it safe?"
Qin Hao nodded: "Safe, it is my territory, within a top monarchy, a monarchy I built single-handedly. It could provide you with a place to settle, but it is in the Southern Continent, far from here. If you are unwilling, it’s okay, I will not force you."
After thinking for a while, Shuiyang said: "Mr. Qin willing to take us in is our honor. If we can have a place to settle, we would certainly be willing to go. But the distance from the Central Continent to the Southern Continent is long, I’m afraid we might be captured before reaching the Southern Continent."
Qin Hao smiled and said: "I plan to go to Ancient God City, and after participating in the Grand Talent Meeting, I’ll have the people from the Southern Continent Heavenly Earth Academy send you back. At that time, you can go to the Southern Continent with them."
"Mr. Qin is taking us to Ancient God City? The forces there won’t attack us, will they?" Shuiyang said worriedly.
Qin Hao: "I am from the Southern Continent Heavenly Earth Academy. At that time, I’ll say you are my guards. Who would dare to touch you?"
Shuiyang hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Okay, Mr. Qin, I agree on behalf of the clansmen."
Even if they didn’t agree with Qin Hao, Shuiyang didn’t know where to take the clansmen, and they might get caught again as soon as they left Sword Saint City.
Qin Hao smiled upon hearing his words: "Clan Leader Shuiyang, you haven’t had a meal, have you? Let’s eat lunch and then hit the road."
He led the group back to Sword Saint City, astonishing the people within the city; how did they return?
Qin Hao and the others finished their meal, then bought some food and started building the Transmission Array.
On the way, Qin Hao contacted Wei Xianyun through a sound-transmitting jade stone, and the transmission was quickly connected.
"Qin Hao? You’re back?" Wei Xianyun’s voice was somewhat surprised and delighted.
Qin Hao: "Xianyun, where are you and Aunt? I’m planning to go to Ancient God City. Are you there?"
"Aunt went out for some business; she should be back soon. Once she returns, we’ll head back to Ancient God City." Wei Xianyun replied.
