2152 Discussion

Wei Ze laughed in anger. Is he asking me to apologize? Yes, the Sky-Cloud Empire and Yue Manor have indeed defeated the Wei family, but this doesn’t mean that Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue can do whatever they want!

No matter what, the Wei family is a first-rate family that has stood strong in the God Residence Realm for a thousand years. As the family head, I represented myself and the entire Wei family! If I really go this time, won’t I be mocked by the world?

“The Wei family has very little contact with the Mahayana Sect. As for that Lin Jiang you mentioned, he has nothing to do with us at all! Every injustice has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor. Whoever makes a mistake, go find them. Why do you have to find trouble with my Wei family?”

Wei Ze tidied his collar. “After the new Gate Realm opened, I had already ordered everyone in the Wei family to stay at home and not participate in this matter. If Lord Yan Qing doesn’t believe me, you can investigate and see if anyone from the Wei family left Qinggu Slope during this period of time.”

His words were very confident, and there was a hint of anger on his face as he was nonchalantly accused.

When the others saw this, they nodded. “That’s right. The family head did give such an order previously. We’ve been here all this time.”

“Since it’s someone from the Mahayana Sect who committed a crime, they can just look for them. Why are they looking for us…”

“That’s right. Isn’t the Sky-Cloud Empire’s person being too—” Before he could say the last two words, the person who spoke felt a chill on his back instantly.

He subconsciously looked up and met Yan Qing’s cold and heavy gaze. His heart couldn’t help but tremble, and he subconsciously swallowed the rest of his words. This, this Yan Qing… is also very powerful!

The people around him fell silent unconsciously.

Yan Qing raised his eyebrows slightly and stared straight at Wei Ze. “Master Wei, I happen to know that someone has indeed left Qinggu Slope recently. Are you interested to hear it?”

Wei Ze’s eyelids twitched violently. What Yan Qing said is…

“Sir Yan Qing, this is a serious matter. If you can’t produce evidence that convinces us, I’m afraid our Wei family won’t agree to your request.” It was Wei Song who spoke.

No matter what, the Wei family’s reputation was still important.

If Wei Ze really went to Peach Blossom Dock to apologize, this news would quickly spread throughout the entire God Residence Realm! At that time, not only would Wei Ze be too embarrassed to face everyone, but wouldn’t many people in the Wei family also be humiliated?

Yan Qing nodded. “His Highness has never fought a battle he’s not confident in; it’s the same this time. There’s naturally evidence. If Master Wei wants to see it too, I can show it now.”

Wei Ze’s heart raced. He was really unsure how true Yan Qing’s words were, but since the latter dared to come looking for him directly like this, then… Things were probably not good.

Wei Ze quickly searched his mind for any possible mistakes. I have already buried Lin Jiang for a long time; even the rest of the Wei family don’t know. Moreover, that person is already dead.

There is no evidence. What evidence could they have?

However, Wei Ze really didn’t dare to take the risk—

After thinking about it, he finally said seriously, “It seems that His Grace and Master Yue have a deep misunderstanding of me in this matter. How about this? I’ll accompany you to Peach Blossom Dock and explain to them in person. The Wei family and Sky-Cloud Empire have always minded their own business and stayed in their own lanes, minding their own business. It’s really not worth it to have a conflict because of some misunderstandings.”

His words were very well said.

He agreed to Yan Qing’s request and went to Peach Blossom Dock together, but he wasn’t apologizing for his sins. Instead, he wanted to ‘explain the misunderstanding.’ It sounded much better.

…

Peach Blossom Dock.

The night passed quickly.

When Zi Chen woke up, he felt something pressing against the blanket.

When he opened his eyes, it was a round head. The red-stringed golden bells were faintly discernible in the slightly messy bun.

It was Tuan Zi who had fallen asleep by the bed.

Ever since Chu Liuyue handed her the task of taking care of Zi Chen, she had made up her mind to stay by his side. In the end, she couldn’t hold on and fell asleep.

Her sixth meridian had been forcefully opened in the Red Moon Desert, and it had consumed her greatly. Her small body was still recovering from its fatigued state, so it was normal for her to be a little sleepy.

Zi Chen tilted his head and sized up Tuan Zi indifferently, his emotions unreadable.

She slept soundly, muttering something under her breath. “…S-Sorry…”

Zi Chen’s lips curled up imperceptibly.

As if sensing something, Tuan Zi finally woke up and slowly opened her eyes.

Zi Chen closed his eyes.

Tuan Zi rubbed her eyes and looked at Zi Chen.

“He’s still sleeping…” she whispered. It seems like Zi Chen’s injury is really serious.

She stretched and yawned as she jumped off the small stool, tiptoeing to the head of the bed.

Zi Chen thought that she was going to get the medicine, but after waiting for a while, he didn’t hear anything.

Just as he was puzzled, he suddenly felt that something was getting closer. Tuan Zi placed her hands on the edge of the bed and stood on her tiptoes, putting her head close to the wound on Zi Chen’s shoulder.

At this moment, his wound was bandaged, but a little blood could still be seen.

Tuan Zi sighed a little and was a little depressed.

Every time she saw Zi Chen’s wound, she couldn’t help but think of that scene. The feeling of flesh and bone shattering and blood splattering was still so clear and deep.

Zi Chen originally thought that Tuan Zi would leave after taking a few glances out of curiosity, but after waiting for a long time, she still didn’t move.

A few strands of her hair fell and floated over his neck and shoulders.

Her small head moved, and the few strands of hair swept around. It was very itchy.

After a while, Zi Chen finally couldn’t take it anymore and deliberately coughed.

Only then did Tuan Zi suddenly wake up. She looked up at him with a surprised expression. “Zi Chen, you’re awake!”

Zi Chen: “…Mm.”

“Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something or take your medicine first?” Tuan Zi frowned and thought carefully. “You also have to change the medicine for your wound… Why don’t you drink water first?!”

With that, she looked at Zi Chen with bright eyes as if waiting for his answer.

Zi Chen was a little helpless. “Tuan Zi, I can do these things myself. You—”

“A’Yue told me to take good care of you! Don’t tell me… you think I didn’t do well?” Tuan Zi widened her eyes.

Zi Chen paused. In the end, he didn’t remind her.

From yesterday until now, she didn’t seem to have done anything but lie here and sleep.

“…No. Drink some water first.”

“Okay!” Tuan Zi turned around and ran over to get the water.

Choo—

Bang!

A ball of red-gold flames burned and burned the teapot in the blink of an eye.

The things here were all ordinary items. How could they withstand the flames?

Tuan Zi was stunned and turned to look at him in a daze. “I-I just thought that it would be better for you to drink hot water… Shall I change to another pot?”

Zi Chen closed his eyes.
