Capítulo 1584: Chapter 1585: Targeting the Guardians of the Nation
In the west wing of the Xiahou family house, Dragon Head sat calmly on a chair, sipping fragrant tea.
Xiahou Yunting, however, looked uneasy: “What’s going on with him?”
“The blood of madness!” Dragon Head said lightly.
“What the hell is that?”
“It’s the genetic inheritance from the Ye family!” Dragon Head smiled bitterly: “We have no idea who it will be passed on to, nor when it might erupt!”
“Does your Ye family have this kind of disease too?”
“It’s not really a disease!”
“What do you an?”
“Uncle Xiahou, although you are a respected elder and technically family, I cannot tell you the secrets of the Ye family!”
Dragon Head seed to recall sothing and spoke again: “Of course, it’s not that I don’t trust you…”
“Do you think I care about your Ye family secrets? I’m worried that my future great-grandchild will inherit this damn disease!” Xiahou Yunting said angrily.
Xiahou Yunting knew about the relationship between Dragon Head and Ye Xunhuan, but he truly didn’t care about the Ye family secrets.
What he worried about was Qiu Ruoxi’s future child. If they inherited this disease and had an outburst, wouldn’t they even kill their parents?
“Uncle Xiahou, you don’t need to worry about that. Even if it is inherited, it may not necessarily manifest!”
“What do you an?”
“He is like this because of killing, because of his so-called master’s and so many brothers’ deaths, which plunged him into grief and anger, causing him to develop post-war syndro, thereby triggering the blood of madness in him!”
“So you an your Ye family has this crazy disease…”
“It’s not a crazy disease…”
“How is it not? Look at that brat just now!”
Dragon Head went silent for a mont. If Xiahou Yunting wanted to put it that way, it wasn’t entirely wrong; however, their Ye family preferred to call it the blood of madness!
“Alright, we’ll treat it as a crazy disease then!”
“This crazy disease of yours is like a ti bomb, isn’t it? No one can predict when it will explode, right?”
“Yes!”
“Can I make Ruoxi divorce him?”
“If you can do it, I don’t see a problem!”
“I suddenly feel like I’ve been tricked by you guys!” Xiahou Yunting ground his teeth and said.
Dragon Head gave a bitter smile: “Uncle Xiahou, don’t you see the silver lining in him having this disease?”
“Silver lining, my ass! He doesn’t recognize anyone, kills whoever!”
“At least he can preserve his life!” Dragon Head said emphatically: “And it’s not like the disease can’t be controlled!”
“What do you an?”
“You know about the Berserk ability in the western Berserker tribes, right?”
“I know that. It’s the one where a person’s strength doubles in a short ti, but after the ti’s up, they beco extrely weak!”
“Exactly!” Dragon Head nodded: “If he can control it, it would be like going Berserk!”
“But how do you control it?”
“I don’t know!” Dragon Head said earnestly: “I didn’t inherit it!”
Xiahou Yunting’s face darkened imdiately. He wanted to beat Dragon Head up; talking for half a day and it was all in vain.
“You…”
“While I don’t know how to control it, I do rember my brother saying sothing!”
“What did he say?”
“‘When emotions stir, the heart aches; emotions can awaken a lost mind.'”
“What does that an?”
“No idea!”
Xiahou Yunting’s old face twitched uncontrollably. This guy doesn’t know anything!
“Then why even say it!”
“It’s better than saying nothing, right?” Dragon Head said helplessly.
Xiahou Yunting sighed lightly: “You just called Qin Fenghuang, does it an she can…”
“You’re overthinking it!” Dragon Head imdiately guessed Xiahou Yunting’s intention and interrupted: “He was already in a state of complete exhaustion, and because of what happened with Ruoxi, he was internally conflicted many tis!”
“And my sister-in-law Fenghuang, being his mother, he grew up with her, so his feelings for her are deeply rooted, that’s why I thought it might snap him out of it, and surprisingly, it worked!”
“So, you weren’t even sure earlier, and you’re just gambling?”
“Correct!” admitted Dragon Head: “I didn’t expect to win the gamble!”
“What if you lost?”
“We’d team up to fight him, wait for a chance to knock him out, let him sleep it off, and everything would be fine.”
A whole herd of ‘fuck you’ galloped through Xiahou Yunting’s mind, realizing the Dragon Head could subdue Ye Xunhuan by sheer luck!
“You… you Ye family people really are lunatics!”
Dragon Head chuckled: “I guess so!”
“But I’d like to see how you explain this to the Protectors!”
“I have this thing, what’s there to be afraid of?”
With that, Dragon Head flipped his right hand like performing a magic trick, and a square Token suddenly appeared in his hand, carved with dragons and phoenixes, and ancient script!
“This… this is the Holy Order…”
Xiahou Yunting’s face was filled with shock and disbelief.
The Holy Order was forged jointly by the Protectors and the Huaxia nation, with only nine in existence, given to those who have made significant contributions to the country.
As long as it’s not treason, possessing the Holy Order ans immunity from death!
Now that Dragon Head had pulled out the Holy Order, how did he get it?
Knowing there have only been nine Holy Orders since the founding, each one is a priceless treasure.
“Yes, it is the Holy Order. With this, they can’t say much, right?”
“If you have this, why didn’t you use it earlier?”
“Uncle Xiahou, do you think this lad won’t make trouble again in the future?”
“You an…”
“Exactly, this Holy Order was sothing Xunhuan and I risked our lives for within the Hidden Dragon, I gave all my rits to get this for him, just so it could save his life at a crucial mont, but it can only be used once; after that, it’s destroyed!” Dragon Head sighed lightly: “I thought he could co to the Xiahou family to lay low, but who would’ve thought it would still need to be used!”
This Holy Order, Liu Qingcheng knew too, as that was what Ye Xunhuan had back then; as long as the Holy Order was used, Ye Xunhuan and the Hidden Dragon would officially cut ties, completely, which was why she didn’t want Ye Xunhuan to use it.
Neither did Dragon Head, but did he have a choice now?
Xiahou Yunting understood Dragon Head’s aning imdiately, and he too sighed lightly: “You’re right, this thing can only be used once; it would be nice if it could be used multiple tis…”
While Xiahou Yunting and Dragon Head were talking, Han Feijun, Yuan Feng, and others were passing Qingbi Mountain, and suddenly, a dozen black-clothed n appeared as if descending from the sky, emanating a chilly killer aura, launching a thunderous assault aid at slaughtering them all!
The abrupt change caused Han Feijun’s face to change dramatically. Now they were all heavily injured, their strength greatly diminished, and those were top-notch masters; are they dood today?
“Who are you people? We are Protectors…”
“We are here to kill the Protectors!”
