Chapter 1114B – Persuasion

Cloud Mist’s eyes brightened. She looked up at Qin Yu, “Are you speaking the truth?”

This simple and direct response left Qin Yu stunned. Sure enough, he had guessed her intentions. This woman was deliberately waiting here for him to say these words. As a solemn and noble daughter who could become the next Nightmare King, couldn’t she be a bit more reserved?

Even though he was cursing inside, he didn’t want there to be any more problems. He nodded and said, “I am!”

Cloud Mist revealed a beautiful smile. “Then it’s settled.” She looked at Qin Yu, her eyes soft and gentle, as if she was looking at a piece of meat stewing in her own pot.

She was brimming with confidence!

This gaze left Qin Yu feeling uncomfortable. He thought to himself, could the qualifications to compete for the new King’s throne be that high?

Otherwise, Cloud Mist would not have revealed this kind of expression.

But with things having come this far, even if he knew he had been tricked by Cloud Mist, he could only clench his teeth and acknowledge it.

Moreover, he believed that no one knew how the final ending would be…he would let this woman be happy with herself first!

“You should have known that the contention for the new King’s throne has extremely severe requirements for one’s bloodline. Bluetile Courtyard has ways of evaluating it, but it requires time to prepare.” Cloud Mist thought for a moment and said, “The Clan Elder must have run away to settle accounts with others. But, he won’t have much patience. At most he will give you a day or two to consider this.

“Tomorrow. I will try my best to have everything prepared by then. Is there any problem with that?”

Qin Yu waved his hand, “Then it’s tomorrow.”

In truth, he had no problem with doing it now. But Cloud Mist needed time to prepare first. And secondly…well, he was supposed to be in a severely wounded state right now. If he immediately leapt up and celebrated, wouldn’t this be too insulting to Cloud Mist’s intelligence?

However, he feared…

Cloud Mist didn’t stay any longer. “You should rest…don’t worry, I won’t try to tamper with anything. Moreover, it is impossible for me to. When the time comes, you will understand.”

She gave one final look towards Qin Yu before leaving.

This look left Qin Yu feeling embarrassed, because this was exactly what he was thinking…this woman, she wasn’t that stupid…

The door closed and Qin Yu swept his divine sense around. After determining there was no one monitoring him, he smiled.

Everything would depend on tomorrow. As long as he put on a good enough performance, there was no reason for that old snake Cloud Boundless to refuse him.

After all, he had already agreed to pass on the throne to the old King’s lineage. No matter how they looked at this, they wouldn’t suffer a loss.

Of course, this was all based on a positive and upwards outcome. If Cloud Boundless still wouldn’t change his mind…hum hum, he would have no choice but to tear things apart.

The big stick and carrot. With one in each hand, he would see how that old man chose!

Did they really think he was a vegetable that they could mess around with however they wanted to? If it weren’t for the fact that he had too many scruples and didn’t want to cause too big of a scene…would they understand him once he summoned the Demon Dragon Elder?

Thinking of this, Qin Yu sighed. Even though Feature had left, she still had ways to make him think about her.

After all, if it weren’t for her words, the dignified Demon Dragon Elder wouldn’t even spare him a glance. This was a debt of gratitude…and this kind of debt was the most difficult to repay…

Qin Yu shook his head and pushed these thoughts to the side. He would deal with what he owed Feature later. Right now, what he needed to do was display a great enough strength that the old King’s lineage would value him.

So, he prepared to go all-out tomorrow!

…

People began to die in Adversity Peak City.

Many people were involved and they were spread over a wide range. The City Lord Mansion, the ancient King’s lineage, the new faction…there were even some people that seemed completely inconspicuous. Everyone that was caught up in this storm died a miserable death.

Although all of this was carried out in secret, there were just too many people that died, and some of them weren’t nobodies either.

So throughout Adversity Peak City, whether one had a strong cultivation or weak cultivation, everyone soon learned of this matter.

They understood…the retaliation of the old King’s lineage had arrived!

No one dared to underestimate a strong family that once gave birth to a Nightmare King. But this time, the old King’s lineage were ruthless and quick in their actions, so much so that they left others trembling.

All parties were silent.

For those that were killed, there had to be a reason for them needing to die.

The old King’s lineage didn’t break their bottom line and no one wanted to jump out and become a target of the old King’s lineage’s wrath. Thus, the best choice was to maintain silence.

Cloud Mist didn’t interfere in these matters. But once Cloud Boundless returned to Bluetile Courtyard and she went to see him, she could see the deep fatigue etched on his face.

Even the formidable Clan Elder didn’t find it easy to deal with all these things. It could even be said that he was shouldering an unimaginable pressure. If something went wrong, there was a chance he could provoke a battle between giants.

This caused Cloud Mist to feel guilty. Not only was she not able to stand by the Clan Elder’s side at such a time, but she was even going to propose something that would leave them both feeling awkward.

She hesitated a little, unable to speak the words that reached her lips.

Cloud Boundless took a sip of tea and leaned back against his chair. He let out a long breath and said, “Isn’t this our Miss Cloud Mist who doesn’t fear the heavens or earth, and who even dares to stop me from trying to kill someone, so what is there to hesitate about now? Hurry up and tell me.”

Cloud Mist felt even guiltier. But she had already agreed with Qin Yu about this. If she went back on her word…he surely would not be happy.

She took a deep breath and bowed, “Clan Elder, there is something I must inform you about. It involves Qin Yu…it is a bit rash and daring, so please let me finish speaking first and don’t get too angry.”

That’s right, Cloud Mist had to explain Qin Yu’s proposition to Cloud Boundless first. In fact, she never planned to hide anything from him to begin with.

As the Clan Elder of the old King’s lineage, he worked hard for the entire family. Cloud Boundless had earned the qualifications to know about anything that involved the future of the family.

Even if this was only an attempt with an infinitesimally small chance of success…

Cloud Boundless frowned. “What does that brat want to do now? Tell him he’d better stop trying to play games with me, otherwise I’ll slap him to death!”

Cloud Mist forced a smile. She still hadn’t said anything but the Clan Elder seemed to have lost his temper…whatever, in the end she had to let him make the decision.

She immediately began, no longer delaying. She told him everything Qin Yu spoke to her about at the City Lord Mansion’s banquet without hiding anything.

Sure enough, once Cloud Boundless heard that Qin Yu hoped the old King’s lineage would support him in the struggle for the new King’s throne, he laughed out loud from anger.

However, he wasn’t stupid. Angry was one thing, but he didn’t lose his reasoning because of that.

As she finished speaking, although his face was ugly to look at, he had more or less calmed down. He leaned back against his chair without speaking, a thoughtful look on his face.

Cloud Mist observed him and said, “Clan Elder, the situation is like this…although I have no idea why Qin Yu is being so stubborn and refuses to bind with me…I can sense how firm his resolve is. If you force him, I fear problems will occur…”

“Problems?” Cloud Boundless sneered, “What problems can there be!? Does that boy think he can escape my palm!? To dare to repeatedly go against me, I will teach him why flowers are red!”

Cloud Mist said, “Of course. Clan Elder, if you want to you can easily suppress Qin Yu, so there is no way he would be so insolent before you. This is the reason he spoke to me about this matter first.”

Humph! It is my family’s daughter who understands the truth. That Qin Yu might have some minor tricks up his sleeve, but in front of this old man, it isn’t worth mentioning!

Cloud Boundless’ complexion immediately improved. He knocked the table and said, “I understand what you mean. You are afraid this kid will mess up and really spin things out of control…hehe, doesn’t he want to try it? Then let him undergo the test. Once he loses heart, he will naturally obey. Otherwise…”

He looked at Cloud Mist, “At that time, if that brat dares to go against his word, you cannot stop me from what I will do.”

Cloud Mist lightly said, “Of course, I hate being deceived by others the most. If Qin Yu doesn’t agree afterwards, I will not interfere with Clan Elder.”

Cloud Boundless laughed out loud, “Then go and prepare…I also want to see how much weight this brat has to put forth such a request!”

Cloud Mist respectfully bowed and walked away.

Sitting in a room, the meditating Qin Yu suddenly felt his heart palpitate with fear. He opened his eyes and muttered, “Who is talking about me again?

….

Within the Nightmare Clan, the most powerful faction that was respected and honored by others was the ancient King’s lineage. This was a recognized fact.

So when the late King thoroughly dissipated and this was confirmed, the ancient King’s lineage immediately became the most favored faction to succeed the throne.

In this context, giving the ancient King’s lineage some face and even secretly providing them some assistance could be considered a safe investment.

They didn’t ask for anything in return. Once the ancient King’s lineage took the throne, just guaranteeing their current status would be the biggest reward.

After all, it was said that every emperor brought his own courtiers. Once the new King ascended the throne, a major reshuffling was bound to happen within the Nightmare Clan.

Being able to preserve their status was already a rare and commendable feat.

Even now, no one knew how many people had provided certain conveniences to the ancient King’s lineage.

But this would undoubtedly be a very powerful force, strong enough that even the old King’s lineage would be continuously plotted against in Adversity Peak City.

Thus, this led to the attack within Nine Nether Pagoda, the accident at the City Lord Mansion’s banquet, and the assassination attempt by the Demon Commander powerhouse that was able to form a Dominion.

That’s right, everything that happened to Cloud Mist in an attempt to bring down the old King’s lineage and shove them so deep into the ground that they would never recover, was all the work of the ancient King’s lineage.

To be exact, this was not a secret in the Nightmare Clan. There was just no evidence…of course, this sort of thing never required evidence to begin with. Everyone could figure it out.

Everyone knew who did what. However, due to the weak potential of the old King’s lineage and in addition to no one having grasped their weakness, they could only endure it.

That’s right, the old King’s lineage was patiently enduring. Even if Cloud Boundless went mad against the Clan Elder Assembly, even if he went on a killing spree and eliminated numerous people.

Compared to the attacks by the ancient King’s lineage, the counterattack wasn’t anything to speak of. It had to be known that once something happened to Cloud Mist, all that awaited the old King’s lineage was utter ruin.

One could see which side was worse from a single glance.

But this didn’t mean that the ancient King’s lineage held everyone’s hearts in hand and could act without scruples.

It was said that if someone didn’t succeed the first time, they should try again, and if they didn’t succeed the second time, they should try a third time…but three attempts had failed, and they still hadn’t been able to capture Cloud Mist and cause heavy losses to the old King’s lineage.

This in itself was a considerable attack against the ancient King’s lineage. It would make people think that perhaps they overestimated the strength of the ancient King’s lineage.

Or maybe…the old King’s lineage had destiny on their side!

That’s right, it was good luck. Except for this, no one could figure out why Cloud Mist was able to escape three sure-kill attempts.

But regardless of whether they could figure it out or not, they all had to be careful. Had they taken too much of a risk in blindly placing their bet on the ancient King’s lineage?

No one made a statement, but the atmosphere in the quiet Adversity Peak City started to change.
