Chapter 778 Thigh (1/2)

This was because he couldn’t guarantee that the Yi clan would protect him under the pressure of Heavenly Spirit Sect.

While numerous thoughts were running through Zhou Yuan’s mind, a cold voice filled with anger sounded before Yi Qianji could reply. “Patriarch Qiu Long, it is you who should start reflecting before it's too late!”

Zhou Yuan turned around to see Yi Qiushui staring at Qiu Long in anger as she continued without any intentions of backing down, “The rules of the Prefecture Lord battle were set by supreme sovereign Cang Yuan. What you are doing now completely disregards his rules.

“Who gave you the courage to do so? Is it hall master Gu Yan?”

Qiu Long’s expression changed. He would never dare to admit to the crime of ignoring the rules decided by supreme sovereign Cang Yuan. In fact, even hall master Gu Yan would not dare to do so if he was here.

He didn’t expect the gentle looking Yi Qiushui to be so vicious with her words.

“Don’t put that hat onto me. I didn’t ignore the rules of the Prefecture Lord battle. It’s just that the boy crippled Mo Yuan’s arm, and I want him to go explain to hall master Gu Yan.” Qiu Long's eyes flashed with anger.

Yi Qiushui coldly said, “No need, you can find my grandfather if you need any explanation.

“If my grandfather isn’t enough, I will report this matter to Lady Chi Jing for her to decide.”

Qiu Long froze for a moment as his face paled. He didn’t expect Yi Qiushui to be so unyielding and not even give face to hall master Gu Yan because of some unknown boy.

No other clan head would make such a clear-cut stand.

After all, it won’t be a simple matter if they offended the Heavenly Spirit Sect in the Tianyuan Region, even if Yi Qiushui's grandfather held a position in the Elder Committee…

The countless boos and hisses in Xuanzhou City grew louder and louder. Every gaze was filled with contempt as they looked towards Qiu Long. It was clear that Qiu Long’s actions had made the Qiu clan lose a lot of face today.

This could be said to be a complete loss.

Qiu Long had no choice but to swallow his anger. In the end, he frostily glared at Zhou Yuan and yelled, “Hurry up and let Qiu Ling go!”

He was unwilling to let Zhou Yuan go, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do if the Yi clan insisted on protecting Zhou Yuan.

Yi Qiushui looked towards Zhou Yuan and gently said, “Don’t worry, if he doesn’t know what’s good for him, my Yi clan will not let this matter rest.”

Zhou Yuan looked at Yi Qiushui and pondered for a moment before he finally released Qiu Ling. Qiu Ling glared at Zhou Yuan with a furious expression as if wishing he could swallow him whole.

Zhou Yuan ignored him and remarked with a calm smile, “Patriarch Qiu Long is truly impressive. If there’s a chance, I will pay a visit to the Qiu clan for pointers in the future.”

Given the current situation, there was already no way to avoid a grudge with the Qiu clan. As such, it was impossible to improve their relationship no matter how he behaved.

Of course, given Zhou Yuan's personality, it was impossible for him to become amiable with them even if they wanted peace later on. If Zhou Yuan had a chance in the future, he would definitely get his revenge.

Therefore, he didn’t mind saying such words to make the Qiu clan even more uncomfortable.

“You have a sharp tongue, but don’t celebrate too early. You have crippled one of Mo Yuan’s arms, and his master will certainly not let you off,” warned Qiu Long.

“Boy, you're still too inexperienced. You don't know the consequences of offending the Heavenly Spirit Sect in the Tianyuan Region.

“I feel you won’t have a chance to visit in the future.”

Zhou Yuan shrugged. “I don’t need the head of the Qiu clan to worry about me.”

But there was a sudden feeling of apprehension in his heart. It seemed he needed to hurry and cling onto the thigh of his senior sister Chi Jing. After all, he was currently alone, and it was impossible for him to face a colossal monster like the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
