“Go to the Teng family? There's no need for that. I have other matters to attend to, so I must take my leave.”
After saying this, Qin Chen immediately prepared to leave.
Shu Anhe hurriedly stepped forward and said anxiously, “Brother Chen, the Qingying Sword was a relic of my inheritance. I kindly ask you to…”
Although he had rushed out of Qin Chen's domain before, the Qingying Sword was still bound by Qin Chen. Seeing that Qin Chen was about to leave, he naturally became anxious.
Qin Chen glanced at Shu Anhe and coldly snorted, “This item is a trophy of mine. Earlier, you acted without understanding the situation and attacked me. I won’t pursue your responsibility, but don’t even think about taking the Qingying Sword back.”
Shu Anhe's expression changed instantly, and he quickly looked towards Teng Gu.
Teng Gu frowned. Although he didn’t want to provoke Qin Chen, with Shu Anhe seeking help, he couldn’t just stand by and watch. He could only look towards Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor and said, “Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor, senior…”
Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor directly interrupted him and coldly said, “If you do something wrong, you must face the consequences. Moreover, this punishment isn’t much. I believe if Brother Chen were truly ruthless, the two of you might not even have the chance to stand here. Now, Brother Chen has only taken one of your imperial weapons, and you’re not thanking him, but instead you want to take the imperial weapon back. How could such a good thing exist?”
As Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor spoke, the chill emanating from him was already released.
If the other party didn’t recognize the situation, he wouldn’t even need Qin Chen to act; he would take care of them himself.
Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor was clear on whom to please between the Teng family and Qin Chen. The Long family was formidable, indeed, stronger than the Teng family, but didn’t the ancestor of the Long family, Long Baitian, also die in the Ancient Demon Land?
Having experienced the Ancient Demon Land, Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor no longer looked highly upon the Teng family.
“You…”
Teng Gu was choked by this, his face turning red with anger, blaming Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor for being so disrespectful.
But he knew that with Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor's attitude, no matter what he said, the other party wouldn’t agree to him.
“We should leave.” Qin Chen didn’t want to stay any longer. He glanced at the four people beside him and nodded, “You four should come with me.”
“Yes, senior.”
The woman was immediately overjoyed, and the other three also excitedly stepped forward to bow respectfully. They knew that Qin Chen was saying this intentionally; otherwise, since they had previously ruined Teng Gu's good plans, it would be strange for them to stay and receive any good outcomes.
The group quickly left, leaving only Teng Gu and Shu Anhe at the spot.
Seeing that Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor didn’t invite him, Teng Gu naturally wouldn’t be so blind as to join in. Watching the few leave, his expression darkened even more.
“Teng Gu, are you really going to let them leave like this?” Shu Anhe said unwillingly, the Qingying Sword was the top imperial weapon on him, and now it was taken by Qin Chen, which naturally pained him greatly.
“What else can we do?”
Teng Gu shot him a dissatisfied glance. It was Shu Anhe who couldn’t hold back earlier and acted rashly without understanding the situation. Now he was coming to him for help?
He said in a deep voice, “Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor came out for a major matter. I don’t even know how the others who entered that spatial seal are doing, but regardless, Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor must have secrets regarding that spatial seal. If there really is a Holy Crystal in that seal, Extreme Mirror Dan Emperor wouldn’t act so openly; he would have probably sneaked back to the Alchemy Pavilion long ago. Could it be that something truly happened?”
