An Yesun stood at the edge of the cliff with his head held high. He felt the mountain breeze blowing on his face and felt slightly cool. The terrain here was extremely high. He could faintly see white clouds flowing under his feet, as if he was riding on the clouds. However, after a long time, it was inevitable that he would feel dizzy and risk falling off the cliff. Although An Yesun had not been in Jianghu for many years, his hearing was still very sharp. He seemed to be staring at the scenery in the distance, but in fact, he was constantly on guard. He immediately heard Lu Qian's footsteps as soon as they appeared. He glanced behind him from the corner of his eyes. From his clothes and expression, he could already tell that he was the Head Chieftain of Qing Tian Village.
As soon as Lu Qian finished cursing, An Yesun suddenly turned around and said sternly, "I'd like to see who's the one who's tired of living! This Lord? You think you're worthy of calling yourself this Lord? When I, the Cruel Fiend Star, was unhindered in the martial arts world, when did I see a bastard like you emerging from the cracks of the earth? " With every sentence, he took a few steps forward and poked at An Yesun with his folding fan. Lu Qian turned pale with fright and retreated step by step. His expression changed drastically, and the long spear in his hand fell to the ground. At this moment, he really felt that it was a sin to hold a weapon. He quickly let go of the long whip and said in a trembling voice, "Perish … Perish Hall Chieftain? Why are you here? "
He had known An Yesun for a long time. When he saw how ruthless he was when he killed people, he developed a fear in his heart. Later on, even though his martial arts skills were not what they used to be, his fear of An Yesun was deeply ingrained and difficult to get rid of. Therefore, when he saw An Yesun, he still trembled all over. When he spoke, his back unconsciously bent down.
An Yesun said proudly, "I'm not some Perish Hall Chieftain! I've already cut off all ties with the Sacrifice Shadow Sect! " Lu Qian wiped the sweat off his forehead and said with an obsequious smile, "Yes, yes, with your strength as the Hall Leader of Fallen Hall … No, no, King Fallen Hall, King Fallen Hall, even if you want to form your own sect, you will be able to do it smoothly. You will be one of the best in the martial arts world!"
An Yesun snorted in disdain. He opened his folding fan and said coldly, "Let's cut to the chase. You should know why I'm here today. I don't have time to waste on you. I'll give you two hours at most. Pack up your things immediately, dismiss Qingtian Village, and follow me down the mountain. If you dare to have second thoughts, then I'll flatten this mountain of yours and burn this place to the ground, leaving no survivors. Do you believe me? " Lu Qian smiled apologetically and said, "I do, I do. King Yun's words are the truth. When have I not believed anything he said? If you have something to say, let's talk it out. "
The lackeys at the side watched him move forward, each maintaining their original position and following closely behind. All these years, they had been using Qingtian Village's name to intimidate others. When they robbed, they only needed to mention Qingtian Village's name, and everyone would be terrified. They were used to being arrogant. Today, someone had suddenly dared to bully them in their home and wantonly raped them. Unable to swallow this anger, they thrust out the weapons in their hands at the same time. Dozens of spears were aimed at Anye Yun's vital points. They were waiting for Lu Qian's order to turn this boastful person into a beehive.
An Yesun was not moved at all. His eyes were still looking straight at Lu Qian. He said coldly, "Tell your men to put down their weapons to avoid unnecessary casualties."
Lu Qian had seen him slaughter a group of heroes with his own eyes. His own master and martial uncle had also died in his hands. The title of "Cruel Fiend Star" was not for nothing. He knew that An Yesun had killed countless people. For him to remind him was already giving him face. He quickly raised his hand and said, "Yes … Quick, put down your weapons. Don't be rude to King Yun!" His face was pale, as if he was the one trapped in the center of the spear formation. The lackeys were unwilling, but they had always obeyed the chief's orders. They looked at each other and slowly lowered their spears.
Lu Qian heaved a sigh of relief. He carefully said to An Yesun, "King Yun, about the amnesty you mentioned … You see, although I am the chief, this big Qingtian Village does not belong to me alone. Please allow me to gather all my subordinates and have a small meeting. We will discuss and give you a reply … "
An Yesun said angrily, "What's there to consider? Get it straight, I'm not discussing with you! You should know that I have no patience. Time is precious, and I can't afford to waste it on you. You only have two choices. You can either surrender and go down the mountain, or you can die. Speak frankly, don't pretend to be deaf and dumb. I'll count to three, one … "Lu Qian quickly said," King Yun, please forgive us … "An Yesun turned a deaf ear and continued to count," Two … "
Another lackey was furious. He pulled out his sword and shouted, "You little brat, you're just a lackey of the imperial court. How dare you shout at our Qingtian Village? Is this a place where you can ride roughshod over others? You're just a lackey who has never heard of the Qingtian Village. Go back to your mother's side and drink milk … "
An Yesun's expression did not change. He crossed his left hand and stretched out his right hand. He grabbed the man's neck and twisted it to the side. Everyone heard a clear "crack" and saw the man's neck bone sticking out of his skin. His head hung limply. An Yesun threw the body away and kicked it away. He said coldly, "Whoever dares to be disrespectful to me will end up like this."
The bandits had always bullied the weak and feared the strong. They thought that he was just bluffing and did not think much of it. But when they saw that he did not even bat an eyelid when he killed someone, he was even calmer than when he swatted away a bug. Only then did they feel fear and took a few steps back. They wanted to stay as far away from him as possible.
An Yesun turned to look at Lu Qian and said, "How are you? It's already past the time limit, isn't it? "Lu Qian quickly said," King Yun, please don't be angry. Everything can be discussed. You must be tired from running around. Please come to the hall and have a seat. I'll brew some good tea for you. "An Yesun impatiently said," I don't have time to be polite with you! " Lu Qian said, "There are a lot of things in our village. It takes a lot of time to tidy them all up. We can't let you stay outside and eat the northwest wind! Besides, I really don't want to leave this place so soon. I want to take a few more looks at it … "
An Yesun angrily said, "What's there to see? Can you even see flowers? "Lu Qian said," Yes, yes … no, no! King Yun, please do me the honor and come inside to rest. Xiao … Xiao Ren will do my best to be quick. "An Yesun swept his gaze around and said," Very well. "He lifted his head and stepped inside. Lu Qian nodded and bowed as he followed behind him.
The furnishings and decorations in the hall were exactly the same as the Palace of Heavenly Purity where the Emperor resided. An Yesun sized him up with cold eyes. Before Lu Qian could open his mouth to mock him, he quickly mocked himself, "This is all Xiao Ren's daydream. You can just treat it as a crude joke. Please don't talk bad about Xiao Ren in front of the Emperor. If that happens, even if I have a few heads, I won't be able to keep them …" An Yesun said, "What does your stupid thing have to do with me?" Lu Qian quickly said, "Yes, yes, it's good that you didn't, it's good that you didn't."
An Yesun saw the luxurious decorations in the hall. The chairs were also made of gold. On both sides of the hall were various weapons and jewels. He laughed coldly and said, "Your Qing Tian Village has robbed and plundered quite a lot from the people." Lu Qian smiled apologetically and said, "Xiao Ren is just robbing the rich to help the poor … Yes, yes, robbing those rich people to help a poor man like me. King Yun, if there's anything you like from my side, just say the word … "
An Yesun said, "I'm not interested in money or goods. I won't take a single cent from ill-gotten wealth." Lu Qian said, "Yes, yes, if you enter the imperial court as an official, you will definitely be a good official who is honest and upright." An Yesun snorted and said, "What kind of twisted logic is that? Who said that an honest official must be a good official?"
Lu Qian followed his wishes and said, "Yes, if a person is only honest and not greedy, but his abilities are mediocre, and he can't do much for the people, he won't be a good official. Then if a person is quick-witted and intelligent, loves the people like his own children, but is a bit greedy for money, then he won't be considered … "An Yesun said," Shut up, I'm discussing the way to be an official with you. "Lu Qian replied," Yes, yes, King Yun, please sit over here. "He pointed to the empty seat by the table and walked to the side to drag the throne.
An Yesun raised his eyes slightly and said, "Do you still have the qualifications to sit on that seat now?" Lu Qian knew that he was referring to the fact that in the blink of an eye he could no longer be a Zhaizhu. His mind worked quickly and he responded, "Of course … of course not. I was planning to move it over for you." An Yesun said, "No need." He casually sat down and glanced at the subordinates standing solemnly in the hall. He said, "Is there any movement?"
Lu Qian said, "I've already ordered people to help pack up. They … they don't have anything to do, they're just standing on the side." An Yesun said, "Get this group of people out of here, they're an eyesore." Lu Qian said, "Yes, yes." He raised his voice and said, "Didn't you hear King Yun's orders? Why aren't you leaving? "As he said that, he winked at Lu Qian. After everyone had left, Lu Qian entered the inner room and brought out a cup of tea. He presented it with both hands and said, "King Yun, this is West Lake Longjing tea, a famous tea. Would you like to try it? It's very difficult to drink it anywhere else … "
An Yesun cast a glance at him and raised his hand to take the cup. Lu Qian's face was full of joy and he spoke even more enthusiastically, "King Yun, I'm the one who listens to your orders the most. A few days ago, that Li Yijie also received the imperial edict and came to recruit me. I didn't even bother to pay him any attention. I gave him a torrent of abuse and chased him down the mountain. But if it's King Yun's orders, I'll agree without hesitation. I won't dare to have any objections! "
An Yesun's face was cold and he didn't say anything. Lu Qian's courage grew. He watched him drink a few mouthfuls of tea and said shamelessly, "King Yun, you're the most reasonable person. I'd like to ask you for a favor. I know that it's my fault to occupy this mountain and invade the imperial court. Today, I sincerely repent and promise that I won't do it again. Could you please allow me to continue to stay in the Taihang Mountains, and lead my brothers here to amuse myself, and be a small leader in the wilderness, so that there won't be any news of my rebellion reaching His Majesty's ears. What do you say? Is this good? "
An Yesun was furious and shouted, "What? You want to go back on your word?" He raised his hand and threw the teacup at Lu Qian and flipped over the table. With a series of crashing sounds, plates, bowls, and other utensils fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. Lu Qian saw the teacup flying towards his face and quickly raised his arms to protect his head. There was still more than half of the hot tea left in the teacup and it splashed all over his body. The boiling hot tea flowed down his sleeve. Lu Qian grimaced in pain from the heat. He raised his arm and saw that half of his arm was blistered. It was burning and painful. But when he saw An Yesun's cold eyes, he tried his best to endure the pain and smiled apologetically.
Suddenly, someone rushed in like lightning and knelt by An Yesun's feet. He held a brocade handkerchief in his hand and helped him wipe his clothes. He said, "Yun Wang Wang, be careful not to burn yourself. Don't dirty your clothes. I'll help you wipe them. "He only had one arm, but his hands were still very nimble. An Yesun's position in the Sacrifice Shadow Sect was noble. He was used to being served by others and was used to it. But this person was so considerate that he had never seen him do it before. He was stunned for a moment.
Lu Qian saw the person on the floor. He was wearing the luxurious second chief's uniform, but his actions were as lowly as a servant's. He was stunned and said, "Jiahua? You … what are you doing here? I … I … I'm having a meeting with Yun Wang Wang. You should leave as soon as possible. "
Cheng Jiahua turned a deaf ear and his hands did not stop moving. When Lu Qian left the hall to meet with An Yesun, he secretly followed him. He hid behind the stone lion outside the hall to spy on the situation. When the two entered the hall to talk, he also leaned against the door to eavesdrop.
Cheng Jiahua was very good at taking advantage of the situation. The leader of the Kongtong Sect was his master when he was young. It was at Taihang Mountain that when he saw his master's humble attitude, he believed that Lu Qian was a stronger backer. He immediately switched his allegiance to Lu Qian as his master. But at that time, the leader of the Kongtong Sect was only polite and respectful. He was not like Lu Qian who was so servile to An Yesun. Moreover, he had followed Lu Qian for a long time and thought that his martial arts were not weak. Now that he met someone that even he was afraid of, he would not miss this opportunity to rely on him.
