"Alright, all of you are dismissed!" Young Master Tianqing instructed.
However, Han Wenye, Wang Tianming, and the rest didn't move immediately. Han Wenye said softly, "Young Master, Shangguan Tong is outside. She wishes to see you!"
"Oh?" Hearing Han Wenye's words, Young Master Tianqing raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Does Young Master want to see her?" Han Wenye looked at Young Master Tianqing's expression and said cautiously with a trace of helplessness. "We wanted to chase her away, but she took out the Marrow Breaking Needle and warned us that if we didn't let her see you, she would use this thing to kill her way in. So …!"
"Marrow Breaking Needle?" Young Master Tianqing frowned when he heard this.
"If Young Master doesn't want to see her, we can join forces and set up a large array. Even if we get injured, we have to kill her on the spot!" Han Wenye said softly.
"No need. Let her in and see what she wants!" Young Master Tianqing waved his hand and said.
"Yes!" Han Wenye and the rest replied softly. Then, a servant beside Han Wenye walked out quickly and brought Shangguan Tong in.
Soon, Shangguan Tong was led in by Han Wenye's servant.
"You want to see me? What's the matter? " Young Master Tianqing put down the book in his hand, looked at the pale Shangguan Tong and said in an indifferent voice.
"Young Master Tianqing, can you spare my father's life?" Shangguan Tong didn't hesitate. She knelt down slowly and kowtowed heavily. She lowered her head and asked in a trembling voice.
"No!" Without further ado, Young Master Tianqing shook his head and said plainly.
"Young Master Tianqing, it's true that you have a conflict with my father and my father has hated you for many years. However, after all these years, has my father ever taken revenge on you?" Shangguan Tong lifted her head with a pleading look in her eyes. "No, he didn't do that at all!"
"And this time, even though my father was in the wrong for not greeting you in time, this is only a mistake in etiquette. And for this mistake in etiquette, an insignificant mistake, you want my father to die?"
Shangguan Tong, you actually dare to insult Young Master Tianqing for being narrow-minded? I think you're tired of living! " Hearing Shangguan Tong's words, Han Wenye immediately took a step forward, then pointed at Shangguan Tong and shouted sternly.
"Auction Master Han, you should go back. Let her speak!" Young Master Tianqing waved his hand and gestured for Han Wenye to return. Then, he calmly looked at Shangguan Tong and said.
"Yes!" Han Wenye said respectfully, and then retreated.
"I misspoke!" Shangguan Tong looked at Young Master Tianqing, her voice trembling. She then kowtowed again, "I only want to say that although there is a grudge between my father and you, is the grudge so great that you have to fight to the death?"
"Why, why do you want him to die?"
"And now that you're the high and mighty Saint, us father and daughter are no different from ants to you. Can't you give us a way out?"
"You're not wrong. The grudge between your father and I isn't so great that we have to fight to the death. And the two of you are indeed insignificant to me. The current me doesn't care about the two of you at all!" Young Master Tianqing looked at Shangguan Tong indifferently and said slowly. Then, he suddenly changed the topic and said, "But Shangguan Tong, you have to understand that in this world, many people don't kill because of hatred, but because of benefits!"
"For the sake of a godly weapon, for the sake of a cultivation technique, for the sake of a medicinal pill, killing people is something that cannot be avoided!"
"Now, the relationship between me and your father is exactly the same. I want to kill your father not only because of hatred, but more because he blocked my path and interfered with my interests. Therefore, I must kill him!"
"My father, he's in your way? Interfered with your benefits? "Shangguan Tong didn't understand and asked doubtfully.
"I don't have to explain too much to you!" Young Master Tianqing looked at the confused Shangguan Tong and shook his head. "Anyway, you should return and wait for the Patrol to deal with you!"
"Young Master Tianqing!" Shangguan Tong shouted indignantly.
Young Master Tianqing didn't respond. He lowered his head and flipped open the ancient book and started reading again.
"What price do I have to pay to save my father's life?" Shangguan Tong took a few deep breaths and forced her chaotic mind to calm down. Then, she gritted her teeth and said to Young Master Tianqing forcefully.
"Price?" Young Master Tianqing lifted his head and said with an amused expression, "Shangguan Tong, theoretically speaking, as long as you can pay a sufficient price to compensate for my losses, I can let your father go!"
"However, the price that I want is definitely not as simple as you imagine. Do you think that you can pay the price that I want with just you?"
"Then what price do you want?" Shangguan Tong refused to give up and asked forcefully.
"Let's put it this way. You should know about the Hundred Beasts Elixir right? If you want me to let your father go, then you have to pay me something equivalent to a hundred Hundred Beasts Elixir. Only then will I let him go! "Young Master Tianqing said unhurriedly.
"Something equivalent to a hundred Hundred Beasts Elixir?" When Shangguan Tong heard Young Master Tianqing's words, her face instantly turned pale.
Hundred Beasts Elixir. Shangguan Tong knew what it was.
It was a powerful elixir that could allow one to gain the power of a hundred beasts in a short period of time, increasing one's strength by at least three times.
Due to the powerful effects of the Hundred Beasts Elixir and the difficulty of refining it, its price was extremely high. The total value of a hundred Hundred Beasts Elixir was probably enough to buy the entire Red Rock City.
"I've said it before, you can't pay the price that I want!" Seeing Shangguan Tong's dumbfounded expression, Young Master Tianqing shook his head and said, "So, you should go back!"
With that, Young Master Tianqing lowered his head again and continued to flip through the books in his hands.
Shangguan Tong's face turned green and white. She seemed to be trying to make a difficult decision and her face showed an intense struggle.
"Alright, Young Mistress Shangguan, please!" Wang Tianming said with a cold smile.
Shangguan Tong did not reply and did not move. She continued to kneel there with a painful struggle on her face.
"Men, take her out!" Wang Tianming could not be bothered to say anything else and shouted coldly.
"Yes, Gang Leader!" A few of Qing Gang's gang members immediately responded and stepped forward. They raised their hands and grabbed Shangguan Tong, wanting to forcefully take her out.
At this moment!
"Wait!" Shangguan Tong seemed to have finally made a decision. She stood up and shouted, "Young Master Tianqing, what if I can pay the price that you said is equivalent to a hundred Hundred Beasts Spiritual Pills?"
"Oh?" Young Master Tianqing raised his head and gestured for the Qing Gang members to leave. He then looked at Shangguan Tong with interest and said, "You can pay the price of a hundred Hundred Beasts Spiritual Pills?"
"Yes!" Shangguan Tong said straightforwardly.
"You better think carefully before you say this!" Young Master Tianqing chuckled and shook his head.
"If I say I can pay it, then I can definitely pay it!" Shangguan Tong said resolutely, "The key now is, if I take it out, will you keep your promise and let my father live?"
"If what you take out really satisfies me, then I will keep my promise and let your father live!" Young Master Tianqing nodded and said.
"Really?" Shangguan Tong stared at Young Master Tianqing without blinking and said forcefully.
"I am the Holy Son of the Water Cloud Sacred Ground. Perhaps I can be vicious at times, but things like going back on my word and going against my word are beneath me!" Young Master Tianqing said with a faint smile.
"Alright, I'll believe you this time!" Shangguan Tong was silent for a moment before she finally opened her mouth and said deeply.
"Speak, what is your item?" Young Master Tianqing's lips curled up as he looked at Shangguan Tong with interest.
"Myself!" Shangguan Tong said slowly.
"Yourself?" Hearing Shangguan Tong's words, Young Master Tianqing was momentarily stunned before he shook his head repeatedly. He couldn't help but laugh out loud. His laughter was filled with contempt and mockery. "Shangguan Tong, oh Shangguan Tong. Although I admit that you are indeed a rare beauty and there are countless men who desire you, I could tell this point back at the Water Cloud Sacred Ground!
"However, do you think that I, Tianqing, am the kind of person who lusts after beauties?
"Although I also like beautiful women, I'm more interested in improving my own strength because I believe that as long as I have enough strength, then I don't need to waste my time chasing after beautiful women. Naturally, there will be a lot of beautiful women who will take the initiative to send themselves to my bed for me to enjoy!"
"Unfortunately, Shangguan Tong, this price of yours is not enough!"
"Is that so? But what if I tell you that I have the Heavenly Yin Body? "Shangguan Tong ignored Young Master Tianqing's mockery and said calmly.
"What did you say? You have the Heavenly Yin Body? " Hearing Shangguan Tong's words, Young Master Tianqing's mockery came to an abrupt halt. Then, his expression changed drastically as he stood up abruptly and stared intently at Shangguan Tong.
"That's right!" Shangguan Tong nodded.
"Heavenly Yin Body, you actually have the Heavenly Yin Body?" Young Master Tianqing carefully sized up Shangguan Tong's body and couldn't help but mumble to himself.
As he mumbled to himself, his eyes lit up with uncontrollable excitement. (Not yet)
