Yan Xiu and Charcoal kept an eye on Xiahou Ta while observing Yang Qing's reaction at the same time.
Yang Qing felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart. He was even more shocked, but he still maintained a smile on his face. "What else does Heavenly Elder want to say?"
Xiahou Ta retracted his approaching face. "You know what I want, and you also know what I can give you …"
'Bang!' Charcoal suddenly attacked, smashing his fist into Xiahou Ta's face. His teeth flew out with blood, and Xiahou Ta fell to the ground, unconscious.
"Damn you, so noisy." Charcoal cursed and kicked Xiahou Ta again. He smiled at Yang Qing and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense. This old thing is only good at talking. He's using that … That's right, sowing discord. Everyone, don't fall for it."
Yang Qing smiled. "This old fox is indeed not simple. I'm no match for him!"
Yan Xiu stepped forward and silently kept Xiahou Ta away.
Not long after, the Six Dao Generals arrived together. They entered the Daoist temple and observed the surroundings. Dan Qing clicked her tongue and said, "So this is where Xiahou Ta is hiding."
Yang Qing asked, "How's the situation outside?"
Ao Tie replied, "It's already been cleaned up." He offered a few storage bangles.
Yang Qing raised his hand to stop them. "His Royal Highness has said that the spoils of war will be divided among the Six Dao Generals. His Royal Highness will not touch them." Naturally, he was going to report back to Miao Yi what he had obtained from Xiahou Ta.
The six of them cupped their fists together and said, "Of course!" Then they looked at each other and burst into laughter.
To them, this time it was a daunting experience without any mishaps. They had dug out the Xiahou Clan's foundation, and even Xiahou Ta, who had dominated the world for so many years, had fallen into their hands. They even made a huge fortune. How delightful! They had swept away all the grievances they had suffered from being cooped up in Purgatory for so many years!
"Let's go and report back!" Yang Qing smiled as he called out to them. He strode out of the hall, followed by a group of people...
In the bustling capital, there was a quiet place amidst the hustle and bustle. In a deep courtyard, there was an empty rocking chair under a large tree.
Not far away, Cao Man paced back and forth. His state of mind was similarly unsettled. Wei Shu had not returned for a long time and could not be contacted, causing him to be extremely worried. Thus, he quickly moved to another place to stay. He was worried that Niu Youde had done something, but it was not convenient for him to ask. If it was not Niu Youde's doing and he rashly asked, Niu Youde would know that Wei Shu had disappeared. Once the news of Wei Shu's disappearance was leaked, it would definitely attract the attention of the world. Wei Shu really knew too many secrets about the Xiahou family...
At King Bull's Manor. When Miao Yi found out that Yang Qing and the others had achieved a complete victory, he personally stood at the entrance of the main courtyard of the inner residence to welcome them. Yang Zhaoqing personally went out to welcome them.
Seeing Yang Qing and the others arrive, Miao Yi revealed a smile.
Seeing that Miao Yi had personally come to greet them, Yang Qing and the others quickened their pace. As they approached, they bowed in unison, "Your Highness!"
Miao Yi stepped forward and held Yang Qing's arm with both hands, "Dispense with the formalities! You've worked hard! This is not the place to talk, please come inside! "He grabbed Yang Qing's wrist and personally pulled him inside.
Yang Qing repeatedly expressed his fear, but the excited Miao Yi refused to let him go, treating him extremely generously.
As for Yan Xiu and Charcoal, Miao Yi did not care about them. From a certain point of view, there was a difference in how close they were.
Once they entered the main hall, Miao Yi let go of Yang Qing and suddenly tidied up his clothes. Facing Yang Qing, he cupped his fists and bowed deeply, "This time, Mister has done a great deed. I have no way to thank you, please accept this bow from me!"
Yang Qing hurriedly avoided Miao Yi's hand, and said in fear and trepidation, "Your Highness is too kind. This is what I should do."
Many things had changed unknowingly. Even in the early years when he had followed Miao Yi, it would not have been like this. Now, Yang Qing had no choice but to be a lot more careful when facing Miao Yi. Unknowingly, Miao Yi had also begun to emit the air of a king, and his natural imposing aura was gradually becoming more apparent.
Miao Yi grabbed his arm and laughed, "You are wrong. This is a great deed, unparalleled! Xiahou Ta had dominated the world for his entire life, and everyone was wary of him. Now that he has fallen into Mister's hands, Mister has no more regrets in this life! This prince promises Mister that once the time is right, this prince will announce Mister's contributions to the world, and it will definitely become a legend! "
Yang Qing hurriedly channeled his energy and said, "Your Highness is too serious. This operation was planned by Your Highness, and I was only executing it. If Your Highness did not forcefully push for this matter, I would have been muddle-headed and made a mistake. If we are talking about contributions, I am merely basking in Your Highness's glory. I truly do not dare to claim such a great merit!"
Miao Yi laughed heartily, "You are wrong! If Mister had not personally acted this time, the consequences would have been unthinkable. If it is Mister's contributions, then it is Mister's contributions. There is no need to shirk the responsibility! Right now, this prince does not know what to reward Mister with. Why don't Mister tell me yourself? Whatever you want, don't hesitate to ask. Even if it is Lord Qing's concubine, this prince will get it for you! "
He was simply too happy. He couldn't not be happy even if he wanted to. What did the success of this matter signify? It signified that the great power of the Xiahou Clan that had dominated the world was now gone. The Xiahou Clan was now in his hands. It was said that the Xiahou Clan would rule the world. Yang Qing's contributions this time were simply too great. It would be inexcusable if he did not reward him. As long as it was something that Yang Qing wanted, he would definitely satisfy it this time. He also believed that Yang Qing would not make any unreasonable requests.
If Lord Qing were to hear these words, he would definitely be so angry that he would vomit blood.
This was giving him whatever he wanted! Beside him, Charcoal was extremely envious as he listened. If it were him, he would have asked His Highness to reward him with the two Mystical Maidens.
Yan Xiu still had a deadpan expression on his face.
Yang Zhaoqing, on the other hand, was all smiles. He naturally knew what the success of this matter signified, and was extremely happy as well. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Fortunately, His Highness had acted arbitrarily and insisted on his own opinion. Otherwise, how could he have obtained such a reward?
When Yang Qing heard the latter part of Miao Yi's words, he was stunned for a moment. He hesitated for a moment, then cupped his fists and said, "This subordinate indeed has a presumptuous request. I hope His Highness will grant it!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Miao Yi waved his hand and said, "Speak your mind!"
A hint of awkwardness flashed across Yang Qing's eyes as he said, "This subordinate does not want Lord Qing's concubine, but this subordinate has taken a liking to Su Yun, and has already developed feelings for her. I hope that His Highness will grant my wish!"
He was worried that Miao Yi would overthink things if he didn't want anything after this meritorious deed, so he simply took the opportunity to speak his mind.
"Uh..." Miao Yi couldn't smile anymore. He stared blankly at Yang Qing. He was shocked, shocked, and dumbfounded.
Charcoal was still fine, and still had a look of envy on his face. On the other hand, Yang Zhaoqing and Yan Xiu were dumbfounded. Yan Xiu's deadpan face was also filled with disbelief.
Miao Yi's expression twitched as he said, "You mean Su Yun? You've taken a liking to Su Yun? "
Yang Qing cupped his fists and said, "From the first time I saw her, this subordinate had already fallen in love at first sight. If I can have her as my companion, then I, Yang Qing, will truly have no regrets in this life!"
Miao Yi raised his brows and said, "No wonder. So it turns out that you had hidden this selfish motive when you interceded for her back then."
Yang Qing hurriedly said, "Please forgive me, His Highness! I indeed had hidden this selfish motive back then, but it was indeed for His Highness' sake! "
"Forget it. The seven emotions and six desires are part of human nature. I forgive you!" Miao Yi generously waved his hand. With Yang Qing's meritorious deed this time, that matter was no longer a big deal. However, he couldn't help but not know whether to laugh or cry as he said, "This Prince would rather you wanted Lord Qing's concubine. This Su Yun … Yang Qing, oh Yang Qing. You have really given this Prince a very difficult problem!"
If it was a woman from another force, then he would have helped to snatch her away, just like how he had helped Xu Tangran and Xue Linglong back then. But the problem was that Su Yun was now his subordinate. How could he force her? He couldn't possibly do such a thing!
Yang Qing braced himself and bowed deeply, saying, "Please grant my wish, His Highness!"
Miao Yi had the urge to slap his own mouth. He realized that with his current position, he really couldn't make careless promises. He helped Yang Qing up with both hands and smiled bitterly, "Oh Yang Qing, it's not that this Prince doesn't want to grant your wish, but you know Su Yun's situation. Even if this Prince gave the order, she wouldn't agree. This Prince can't just forcefully capture her and force her to consummate the marriage with you, right? Even if you did it, it would still be useless. Her feelings for Hao Defang are too deep. If you act recklessly, you will probably force her to her death. I don't think this is what you want to see either, right? "
Yang Qing said, "This subordinate knows that her feelings for Hao Defang are too deep, but this subordinate also believes that the past will not remain forever. Time will wash away everything. This subordinate is not asking His Highness to force her into a marriage. I just want His Highness to know my feelings for her, and then secretly matchmake them. As for whether it will succeed or not, this subordinate will only do his best and will not force her. Whether it succeeds or not, it is all up to this subordinate. "
Miao Yi understood. He wanted Yang Qing to promise not to stop him from pursuing Su Yun and help him create some opportunities. Why not? He immediately laughed heartily and said, "Good! Do as you see fit. If there is any opportunity that you think is suitable, just say the word. This Prince will do his best to matchmake you! "
Yang Qing was overjoyed and cupped his fists, "Thank you, His Highness, for fulfilling my wish!"
This matter was temporarily put aside. After making a detailed report of what happened this time, it could be considered that he had completed his mission. Yang Qing then took his leave.
Yan Xiu then released Bluemoon.
Seeing that they had returned to the Prince's Manor after causing such a ruckus, as though they hadn't done anything at all, Bluemoon herself was a little confused. "His Highness, this is?"
Miao Yi only said one sentence, "Treat what happened before as if nothing had happened. Do you understand?"
Bluemoon was taken aback for a moment, then immediately cupped her fists and said, "This subordinate understands."
Miao Yi waved his hand, dismissing her.
Once there were no outsiders, Miao Yi couldn't help but want to see Xiahou Ta. Yan Xiu immediately reported the conversation between Yang Qing and Xiahou Ta. After listening to it, Miao Yi pondered for a long time.
Xiahou Ta was released. He was battered and exhausted by Charcoal's punch. He looked around and his gaze fell on Miao Yi.
Miao Yi smiled and walked up to him. He cupped his fists and politely said, "Greetings, Heavenly Elder."
Xiahou Ta, who had lost most of his teeth, chuckled and said, "It's been many years since we last met."
Miao Yi smiled and said, "Heavenly Elder is unwilling to meet the people of the world. This Prince is also very helpless. It's just that I miss Heavenly Elder too much, so I had no choice but to invite Heavenly Elder to meet me."
Xiahou Ta smiled and nodded. He knew that it was all nonsense. He could understand the feelings of a victor. If he didn't meet him after being captured, it would be like walking in the dark in brocade clothes. He would feel uncomfortable in his heart. He smiled and said, "I wonder how Bull Heavenly King plans to deal with this old man?"
Miao Yi smiled and said, "Naturally, I will give you to the demonic monk Nan Bo to settle the matter!"
Xiahou Ta sneered, "If you have the guts, you better do as you say. If you don't give me to the demonic monk, then you are a bastard!"
He knew very well that Miao Yi was purely trying to scare him. Miao Yi would never hand him over to anyone. Once he revealed the Xiahou family's secret, all of Miao Yi's efforts would be in vain. The reason he could say these words was because he was angry. He felt that he had lost unjustly to someone who didn't play by the rules.
Miao Yi, on the other hand, wasn't angry at all. He smiled and said, "This Prince does not dare to give you to the demonic monk. However, Heavenly Elder is well aware of the demonic monk's capabilities. Even though this Prince can give Heavenly Elder a quick death, I'm afraid that Heavenly Elder will not be able to rest in peace!"
Xiahou Ta placed his hands behind his back and calmly said, "Do I need to worry? Your Highness will naturally help me eliminate the demonic monk at all costs! "
Since he couldn't win, Miao Yi couldn't be bothered to waste his breath. "Why don't we make a bet while Heavenly Elder is still in the mood?"
"Oh!" Xiahou Ta asked with interest, "What are we betting on?"
