Chapter 598: Chapter 598: Both Sides Take a Step Back, It’s Good for Everyone!
For a moment, everyone present was stunned.
Whether it was the people from the Martial Alliance in Pan City behind them, or the Elder Master Lian and his group, all of them now had their eyes wide open in disbelief, unable to believe the scene before them.
Ye Congling was also astounded, "You... what did you call her? Commandery... Commandery Princess?!"
Shi Zhen’s expression was solemn, "That’s right, this is the daughter of Jiang City Marquis, Princess Hongyu!"
"Jiang City Marquis?!" Ye Congling was taken aback.
She finally understood why this woman was so arrogant!
Elder Master Lian and the others beside him felt a shock in their hearts.
Especially Lian Qigang, who at this moment was so shocked he couldn’t utter a word.
He had foolishly thought just a moment ago that Chen Xuan and Qin Hongyu needed the face of Lian Rentang to get through this ordeal.
Now he knew that the other party didn’t need them to meddle at all.
In front of Jiang City Marquis, they, Lian Rentang, weren’t even worth a fart!
Qin Hongyu looked at Ye Congling’s astonished face and smiled, "How about it, do you still want to slap me now?"
Ye Congling was so angry she clenched her fists, but she didn’t dare to say another word.
She had only just joined the Blood Saber Stream; though she was of True Martial status, as a new disciple, she wouldn’t dare to challenge a Commandery Princess!
But at that moment, Mo Yucheng stepped in front of Ye Congling.
"I wondered who it was, it turns out to be the precious daughter of Jiang City Marquis!"
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Mo Yucheng, my father is Mo Tianxiong, the Sect Leader of Blood Saber Stream!"
Mo Yucheng was calm and composed, displaying neither servility nor overbearingness.
The Blood Saber Stream, being a True Martial Sect, was powerful, and even the four great families of east, west, south, and north wouldn’t easily make enemies with it.
Although Jiang City Marquis was noble and powerful, that alone was not enough to make Mo Yucheng deeply wary.
"Blood Saber Stream?!" The name made Qin Hongyu’s expression change slightly.
Being born into the house of a marquis, how could she not know the significance of a True Martial Sect like the Blood Saber Stream?
Although the Blood Saber Stream wasn’t part of any of the east, west, south, or north factions, it was still a troublesome adversary. At least, from the standpoint of Jiang City Marquis’ house, Qin Hongyu wouldn’t easily make an enemy of such a True Martial Sect.
Simply put, the Blood Saber Stream and Jiang City Marquis were evenly matched, and neither wanted to be the first to tear their faces!
Qin Hongyu hadn’t expected to encounter such a troublesome character in a small town like Qingshan Town!
This was going to be a bit of trouble...
Seeing Qin Hongyu’s reaction, Ye Congling became smug.
She nearly forgot she dared not offend Jiang City Marquis, but with Mo Yucheng, the future Junior Sect Leader of Blood Saber Stream, she could leech off his power!
With this, Ye Congling immediately felt emboldened.
"You wretched woman, do you now realize whom you’ve offended? If you’re sensible, kneel down and apologize to me, and let me return you three slaps; otherwise, you’ll be making an enemy of the entire Blood Saber Stream!"
Ye Congling, gloating as if victorious, immediately slapped a huge label on Qin Hongyu.
Qin Hongyu raised an eyebrow, "Wow, didn’t realize you had such power. So tell me, are you the Sect Leader’s wife or a little concubine of the Junior Sect Leader? You can represent the entire Blood Saber Stream now?"
"You..." Ye Congling, her chest heaving with rage, "You insolent wretch, watch as I tear your mouth apart!"
No sooner had Ye Congling spoken than she made a move toward Qin Hongyu, only to be stopped by Mo Yucheng with a hand.
"Junior Sister Ye, do not be rude!"
Ye Congling thought that as part of the Blood Saber Stream, a branch of the True Martial Sect, she could bully others and have her way, ignorant of the true danger involved.
Now, by making a move against the Jiang City Commandery Princess, she would be making an enemy of the entire Nan Family.
Mo Yucheng was merely a provisional Junior Sect Leader at the moment; such a situation was not something he could easily bear!
Next, only to hear Mo Yucheng continue, "Princess Hongyu, it seems there was some misunderstanding before that led you to strike against my Junior Sister Ye."
"Originally, as disciples of the Blood Saber Stream, we are protected by our sect and do not tolerate outsiders’ insults."
"However, today, considering you are the daughter of the Marquis of Jiang City, I am willing to let bygones be bygones."
"What?!" Ye Congling was stunned, "Senior Brother Mo, how can you..."
"Junior Sister Ye, don’t speak yet!" Mo Yucheng interrupted Ye Congling with a cold voice, and Ye Congling shut her mouth resentfully.
Mo Yucheng continued, "As for the matter between you and my Junior Sister Ye, I am willing to let bygones be bygones as well, but in exchange, you must agree to a condition of mine!"
"Oh?" Qin Hongyu raised an eyebrow, "What condition, let’s hear it?"
Mo Yucheng: "It’s very simple, give me that Revival Grass, and we’ll call it even for today!"
In fact, this was the best solution Mo Yucheng had come up with after weighing the pros and cons!
Qin Hongyu, being the Jiang City Commandery Princess, meant the grievance with Ye Congling was something he was doomed not to avenge.
Rather than letting her off for nothing, it made more sense to turn the situation into a trade and obtain the Revival Grass—it wouldn’t be too much of a loss!
In Mo Yucheng’s view, as long as Qin Hongyu, the daughter of the Marquis, wasn’t too foolish, she should understand the trade-off and accept his proposal.
What Mo Yucheng did not expect, however, was that upon hearing his proposal, Qin Hongyu sneered, "Is that so? What if I just don’t feel like giving it to you?"
The expression on Mo Yucheng’s face grew cold in an instant, "Princess Hongyu, I am making this concession out of respect for your father, the Marquis of Jiang City. If you don’t wish for the situation to escalate and involve your father, I advise you to accept my proposal. It’s better for both of us to step back. Otherwise..."
Mo Yucheng did not finish his sentence, but the threatening intent was already very clear.
Just as Qin Hongyu was about to respond, Chen Xuan spoke first, "That Revival Grass is mine; you don’t need to trouble Miss Qin, she is not the decision-maker here!"
"I can tell you now that I have a use for the Revival Grass, so you can forget about it!"
Chen Xuan’s words were undoubtedly distancing himself from Qin Hongyu, not wanting any involvement with the Marquis of Jiang City.
Mo Yucheng smiled with amusement.
He had originally been worried about offending the Marquis of Jiang City, but now, with this man surnamed Chen actively disassociating himself from the Marquis of Jiang City, Mo Yucheng no longer needed to have any reservations!
"Very well, since that’s the case, this matter no longer concerns Princess Hongyu."
"As for you?" Mo Yucheng sneered, continuing, "There’s nothing I, Mo Yucheng, want that I can be denied!"
As he spoke, Mo Yucheng made a gesture with his hand.
Whoosh!
A blood-red short dagger suddenly appeared in his hand out of thin air!
Chen Xuan was slightly surprised.
He recognized at a glance that the red short dagger was actually formed from condensed True Qi!
True Qi manifested into form, Martial Arts Grandmaster!
Was this the true foundation of the True Martial Sect?!
Chen Xuan finally understood why even the four major powers from the east, west, south, and north did not wish to easily make an enemy of the True Martial Sect.
It seemed they indeed possessed awe-inspiring capital!
