“Hmm, you’re definitely not foolish.” Diwu Qingrou’s gaze was slightly complex as he looked at Diwu Qingyun and softly said, “Qingyun, the Sun Family was killed because of their many wrongdoings. It is retribution.”
He pondered for a moment and continued, “And you… as far as I know, you’ve done quite a lot in these years. Although not as heinous as the Sun Family, you are still hated to the bone!”
“Be aware that if you do too many bad things, there will be divine retribution. If you want to give up on this revenge, that’s fine too.”
Diwu Qingrou spoke these few words with some difficulty, differing from his usual fluency.
Diwu Qingyun laughed heartily, “No worries! Qingrou, I do things through my subordinates. Besides... you’re quite ruthless too. Every time I’ve just done something, you go ahead and deal with my subordinates, killing them. That time, you even had my man whipped a hundred times!”
He chuckled, “But I’m okay with that. You beat me, and you kill my people; I won’t hold it against you. Just this time, don’t blame me or stop me; my little concubine is the youngest daughter of the Sun Family. She’s throwing a fit and causing a scene—I've reached my limit. If this goes on, I won’t be able to live.”
“So this person, I must kill.”
“Must kill? Hmm, must kill!” Diwu Qingrou nodded lightly and said softly, “Since it’s a must, then kill.”
“Of course I have to kill!” Diwu Qingyun huffed and said, “Qingrou, thank you for helping me with this plan; that kid is truly doomed! But it won’t do for me to keep this a secret alone; you have to keep it a secret too. If this gets out, I’m finished.”
Diwu Qingrou solemnly nodded and said, “You can rest assured; it will be fine on my end.”
Diwu Qingyun left feeling relaxed.
Only Diwu Qingrou was left standing alone in his courtyard, somewhat dazed.
He stood for a long time before slowly sitting down, picking up the teapot, pouring a cup of tea, and taking a sip, muttering, “So fast… the tea is already cold.”
He then gently sighed and said, “The wind is picking up; is the weather changing?”
He then ambled back inside, entering his bedroom, sitting at his desk, and murmuring to himself, “Is the formation about to be activated? That bloody fortune…”
He sighed deeply.
“Too fast!”
Diwu Qingrou said softly.
He quietly looked at a roster on the table. This was the roster of the Diwu Family; he held it in his hand, flipped through it, and his gaze halted on the name ‘Diwu Qingyun.’
Sighing again, he glanced at several other names and gently, almost in a whisper, said, “If that’s the case, it needs to be cleaned up thoroughly... otherwise, if the heavens change, it will be too late…”
As Chu Yang and the others continuously advanced towards the due south, it was also when Diwu Qingrou was plotting…
On this vast continent, many people related to Chu Yang were also advancing towards this place!
Many of them were ones Chu Yang hadn’t expected.
In the southeast, thousands of miles behind Chu Yang and the others, a couple, strikingly handsome and resembling an immortal couple, was leading a stunning young girl towards the due south.
“Qianqian’s cultivation level should be stable now, right?” Feng Yuru said with a smile.
Wu Qianqian replied with a hum, “Yes, I feel that there are no more fluctuations. It’s just that Master has sacrificed too much for this.”
Yue Lingxue smiled lightly, “Our losses can be made up easily; it’s not a big deal. However, as you are about to step into the martial arts world, as a girl, you need sufficient strength to protect yourself!”
Wu Qianqian spoke softly, “Yes.”
Feng Yuru said, “Qianqian, this time you’re going to the Myriad Medicine Convention; the crowd is mixed, and it’s a good opportunity for training. You must be vigilant; remember, if you encounter any troublemakers, don’t be lenient! Kill when necessary; you must not show mercy! If you do, it will be you who gets hurt!”
