It was as if in just a mont, countless thoughts flashed through Qi Baishan’s mind.
Either directly act as an assassin, thoroughly offend Yama Hall, and gamble the entire future of the Qi Family on Ye Guichen. If the gamble paid off, the Qi Family could not only maintain its position among the four major families but also even surpass it, recreating the glory of the ancestors.
Or pretend to lose control, not help either side, and make a superficial attempt to appease Ye Guichen. Even if Yama Hall ca seeking revenge, he could completely have reasons to evade responsibility, thus not implicating the entire Qi Family.
Yet, the latter thought was quickly denied by Qi Baishan.
The Qi Family had already declined. Although it still held a position among the four major families, it was no longer at the sa level of its ancestor’s glory.
Qi Baishan did not aspire to be recorded in history books, but he dreamt of bringing the Qi Family back to a glorious height.
But suffered from a lack of opportunity.
"Yes, this is the opportunity!"
Resolutely, Qi Baishan hesitated no longer. His wrist shook, and a shiny dagger slid from his sleeve.
The dagger was cold but indestructible, capable of cutting through iron like mud.
Almost in an instant, Qi Baishan used all his learned skills from his life and ruthlessly stabbed the dagger into the Green-faced Beast’s neck.
The dagger easily sliced through the Green-faced Beast’s skin, then cut his blood vessels.
In the next second, the weapons from Tan Lang and Shang Wen Dong were also close and respectively blossod into splendid crimson flowers on the Green-faced Beast’s chest and back.
The Green-faced Beast widened his eyes and felt his body becoming lightweight, gradually losing control over it.
"The Green-faced Beast is dead!"
"Quick, escape!"
Seeing the Green-faced Beast fallen, with his eyes still brimming with unwillingness, the rest of Yama Hall’s mbers had already lost their will to fight and turned to flee.
"Kill them all, don’t let them escape!" Qi Baishan roared angrily.
Dozens of Qi Family mbers surged forward, leaving no survivors under the chaotic barrage of blades.
A long ti passed.
The wind rose along the riverbank.
Ripples stirred on the clear waves.
Ye Guichen tightened his collar, actually feeling a slight chill from the wind.
He glanced lightly at the corpses of Yama Hall’s mbers on the ground and then smiled slightly at Qi Baishan: "Your Green Blade Saber is indeed good, but it’s not sharp enough. Especially with your cultivation of the Qi Family’s thirty-two moves, it’s only focused on the form, not real combat. When I have ti, I can correct it for you so that your fist techniques can be at least fifty percent more powerful."
After speaking, he turned around and walked towards his car: "I’ll leave the cleanup here to Family Head Qi."
Qi Baishan stared at Ye Guichen’s back, feeling as if struck by lightning.
"Qi, Qi Baishan respectfully sees off Mr. Ye!" As he spoke, tears were already streaming down his face.
This ti, he had bet right, really bet right!
He looked up at the sky, wanting to shout at the top of his lungs.
The Qi Family mbers looked at Qi Baishan’s strange appearance, feeling curious: "Family Head, are you alright?"
Qi Baishan wept with joy, glancing at the one who asked: "Haha, how could I possibly be in trouble? I’m great! Really great!"
No one knew why Qi Baishan was so excited, but as the Family Head, he deeply understood the aning of Ye Guichen’s words just now.
Because the ancestors of the Qi Family were martial arts top scholars, and their glory was bestowed by those in higher positions.
So, to please the superior, the ancestors specifically created a cultivation technique, the Qi Family thirty-two moves.
This technique seed very domineering but was not focused on real combat, rather full of flashy moves.
After the superior died, the Qi Family, although still renowned as a martial arts top scholar house, had declined generation by generation, and now, it was nearly fallen.
Many Family Heads of the Qi Family wanted to change this technique to make it a true combat, supre technique.
But no matter what, even after seven or eight generations of effort, there was no progress.
Qi Baishan thought he would follow in the footsteps of his predecessors, but Ye Guichen had just seen through the flaws of his technique with a glance and even wanted to give guidance. Wasn’t this clearly aid at fixing the flaws of the Qi Family’s thirty-two moves?
There was no second person in this world who could see the flaws of the technique with a glance.
Absolutely none!
And the person with such skill absolutely had the ability to fix the technique!
"Haha, haha, heaven hasn’t abandoned the Qi Family!" Qi Baishan laughed madly, suddenly turning his head to look at the Qi Family mbers he brought: "From today onwards, Mr. Ye is the leader of our Qi Family. No matter what Mr. Ye does in the future, we will swear to follow him and never retreat. Do you understand?"
The Qi Family mbers looked at each other, seeing confusion in each other’s eyes.
But since the Family Head said so, they all nodded: "Following the Family Head’s orders!"
Neither Qi Baishan nor any Qi Family mbers would have expected that this small decision would lead the Qi Family not only back to its peak but far beyond the ancestors’ glory within a few years.
Of course, this was another story.
Speaking of Ye Guichen, after leaving Qinghe Riverbank, he did not return to the Qin Family but went back to Qinghe Hotel.
That night, Ye Guichen slept quite soundly. It felt as if the whole city had cald down in an instant.
The four major families enjoyed rare peace, without any disputes.
However, early the next morning, Ye Guichen was still startled awake by the phone ringing.
He picked it up to see that it was a call from Duan Nanye.
Ye Guichen put the phone to his ear, speaking with drowsiness: "Brother Duan, I finally got so sleep. Did you calculate this mont exactly?"
From the other end of the phone ca Duan Nanye’s apologetic voice: "Uh, Brother Ye, I’m really sorry, but I just received so news that I felt was still necessary to tell you."
"What news?" Ye Guichen now was completely awake, sitting up straight, leaning his back against the bedhead: "For Brother Duan to care so much, it must be not simple, right?"
"It’s like this." Duan Nanye slightly organized his words: "Our Dragon Teeth’s intelligence departnt just reported that King Yan suddenly announced so news, saying he joined Azure Dragon Comrce, becoming an organization under Azure Dragon Comrce."
"What?" Ye Guichen was startled, "What does King Yan an by this?"
Duan Nanye laughed bitterly: "Brother Ye, don’t you understand yet? As far as I know, not only did one of King Yan’s Shadow Yamas die tragically last night, but even the Green-faced Beast, known as the White Spirit Assassin, was killed by the Qinghe River. These were all your doing, right? King Yan has failed several tis in your hands; he probably has guessed your identity. Moreover, my secret arrival in Yun City likely can’t be concealed from him."
"Given that, just being strong alone, he probably doesn’t want to confront us directly. So, naturally, he seeks a backer. Hehe, now is the ti Azure Dragon Comrce is vigorously developing, and King Yan joining at this ti brings him countless benefits without a single harm."
