Soaring of Galaxia
chapter-596

Since Mu Rong Qianji had opened his mouth to speak, the four warriors ceased to argue, for he was the Lord of the Floating Snow House. Even if they had come from the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, the emperor has the final rule, so they had no choice but to restrain their actions.

In fact, Mu Rong Qianji understood this clearly more than anyone else. Someone behind the scene must have directed these four young men to come here. Certainly it would be a great conspiracy.

Whether this plot was targeting Qin Wushuang or the Floating Snow House, he must wait and observe. However, regardless the outcome, he must treat today's situation carefully.

Even with one foolish move, he could offend all powerhouses represented before him. Even if the Floating Snow House wished to put one's own safety before matters of principle, they would fail to achieve this.

Everyone fixed their gaze upon Mu Rong Qianji meanwhile Qin Wushuang had become incredibly alert. He felt reassured by Mu Rong Qianji's intellect however, Qin Wushuang knew that in this current situation, the pressure shouldered by the Floating Snow House would be immense. When Mu Rong Xu wished to resist, she was stopped by Qin Wushuang's gaze.

Qin Wushuang did not wish Mu Rong Xu to continue putting pressure on him.Her further involvement would work to the disadvantage of the Floating Snow House. Although Qin Wushuang did not favor the higher-ups of the Floating Snow House, he had always respected Senior Mu Rong Qianji. Of course, he did not wish for him to be in a difficult situation.

Regardless the difficulty of the task, he would meet any demand. He must complete it for Xu'Er and render those bastards speechless.

Mu Rong Qianji said lightly, "IN the deep valley behind the mountain of the Floating Snow House, there is an area of deep and serene Black Water. This is rumored to be the territory seized by the Immemorial Phantom Dragon. In the past, the Black Water had evoked many legends. The greatest legend was that beneath the Black Water, there lay the eggs of the Phantom Dragon. The one who could acquire an egg would get hold of the bloodline of the Phantom Dragon and achieve the Supreme Dao."

A cold shiver ran down his back as Qin Wushuang could already see where this was going to some extent.

Indeed, Mu Rong Qianji continued, "The five of you are towering figures among the population. This Phantom Dragon bloodline could only be discovered and not sought. If anyone of you is able to find this Phantom Dragon bloodline and present it to the Floating Snow House, this would be the betrothal gift required for the marriage proposal. The Floating Snow House will surely marry my daughter honorably."

These people were all stunned, Black Water?

Yan Zhuiyang smiled bitterly. "Lord Mu Rong, since the bloodline of the Immemorial Phantom Dragon has existed for the past ten thousand years, is it possible that the Floating Snow House has already sent people to scout the area?"

"Of course there have been. However, they have not proven lucky. After they had gone down, they were either unable to find it or encountered trouble and backed out. Some were never able to return at all."

As soon as he spoke these words, the color of everyone's complexion had turned somewhat greenish. Unable to return? You still want us to go or do you wish to make us suffer?

Mu Rong Qianji said with a faint smile, "Everyone, perhaps this condition is somewhat harsh, but it's the best solution I can come up with at this time. If none of you possess the courage and without such resolution, I cannot trust that you will treat my daughter with sincerity."

Inwardly, Qin Wushuang was secretly thrilled with the method Lord Mu Rong had come up with. These words had been rather stimulating for him. Since the risk appeared to be rather grave, it would be strange if these people who had gathered here for fun would be willing to go.

On the contrary, Qin Wushuang said with a faint smile, "Since Lord Mu Rong requires such a task, I will of course risk my life to keep the nobleman company. Everyone, now is the time to prove your determination and courage before Lord Mu Rong."

All four appeared to find this a difficult demand.

Mu Rong Qianji said, "Young Master Qin, don't agree to it so quickly, you must consider it carefully. Perhaps you may not escape once you enter that Black Water. This will be no game."

Qin Wushuang said with a tranquil and calm tone, "Ever since I stepped onto the path of martial arts, I have been through many many narrow escapes. Besides, I share feelings with Xu'Er. This is the best chance to prove myself and is exactly the challenge I'm looking for. Additionally, if I could not accept this for the person I love, my life would boringly drift on without purpose."

Yan Zhuiyang hardened his heart and said, "Qin Wushuang, do not think that you are the only who can talk the talk. I will accompany you. You three, do you have the courage to follow?"

Through an exchanging glance, Lei Jiao and Yan Zhuiyang had understood each other perfectly and said, "Of course I will go. I cannot be outmatched by a kid from the human countries. Whoever does not go would be a coward."

Even if that Hu Qiulan and Wu Dingyuan wished to evade, they had lost their chance. Lei Jiao had already pushed them into a dead corner. Whoever does not go would be a coward. Despite not being a disciple to the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gate, they were famous disciples to their clan. If they were to display chicken out in this quest, they would squander their clan's reputation.

By weighing up their words and observing their facial expressions, Qin Wushuang knew the type of plot they had come to an agreement. Remaining calm and collected he asked, "Lord Mu Rong, since this is a competition, I would like to ask if after entering the Black Water, are we allowed to fight in close combat with the intent to kill."

Mu Rong Qianji said with a low voice, "I would not dare to make my judgment on this matter. If you truly wished to compete and fight, please invite your seniors. Have them oversee it and sign the life and death contract. All matters of life and death are in no relation to my Floating Snow House. With this done, I would agree."

This was human nature. The Floating Snow House would not wish to invite trouble during the competition.

Yan Zhuiyang laughed. "Great, my Second Suzerain has always admired the honest reputation possessed by the Floating Snow House and wished to pay a visit. I can use this opportunity to invite my Second Suzerain to come."

The Second Suzerain spoken from his words was of course, the second leader of the Heavenly Punishing Villa Yan Guinan! This person was one of two Supreme Dao warriors from the Heavenly Punishing Villa.

Mu Rong Qianji inhaled a mouthful of cold air. An elite warrior of the Supreme Dao would come? This had indeed, exceeded his expectations!

Lei Jiao also laughed. "Since Senior Brother Yan had already made his stance, then I should invite my Second Clan Leader to come"

Wu Dinglan and Hu Qiulan were all sidekicks, yet they had to declare their position at this moment. These two clans were also second-rate powerhouses that possessed similar strengths to the Floating Snow House and the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. Only, they were forced to come after receiving the invitation.

Mu Rong Qianji stopped his gaze onto Qin Wushuang. With a smile, Qin Wushuang said, "I will take responsibility for my own matter, there is no need to invite anyone."

Mu Rong Qianji shook his head. "That would be inappropriate, you must have your senior present. Or else, surely there would be endless troubles afterwards. Additionally, for this match, I will be requesting the supervision from the Heavenly Emperor. The Heavenly Emperor will send someone to oversee it and prevent people from accusing the Floating Snow House of playing favourites."

After consideration, Qin Wushuang nodded. "Ok, I will ask what the seniors of my clan think."

After he walked out the door, Qin Wushuang used the jade identity plate of the core disciple to make direct contact with Qin Chongyang. He spoke in detail of the matter and the situation at hand.

Being an incredibly keen figure, Qin Chongyang knew that this was a plot targeting Qin Wushuang or even the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan from the four powerhouses. He asked with a low voice, "Wushuang, what do you think?"

"Since they took the initiative to seek trouble, I can use this chance to give what they ask for."

Qin Chongyang seemed to be in favor of this.. It had been more than a day or two since he desired to take a jab at the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect. He had never found a suitable way to do so until now He could not break out a major Supreme Dao war, right? If Qin Wushuang was able to ruthlessly crack down on the enemies' core disciples, the ripple would carry.

Immediately, he asked, "Wushuang, how much assurance do you hold?"

Qin Wushuang said, "Unless they have reached the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary, I am one hundred percent confident. Even if they did, I would still be eighty percent sure!"

"Oh?" This was beyond Qin Chongyang's expectation. "How can you be so sure? Fantastic! I will ask the Second Chief now!"

After a moment, Qin Chongyang sent through his spiritual perception. "Wushuang, the Second Chief is incredibly interested in your suggestion. This time, he will step out to support you! Don't worry about Lei Ming or Yan Guinan, they can threaten me, but they would never be able to do anything to the Second Chief!"

It meant that the strength of Qin Yunran, the Second Chief, was higher than Qin Chongyang? At the time, Qin Wushuang did not possess much knowledge about elite warriors of the Supreme Dao. Upon hearing the words of Qin Chongyang, he felt much more determined. As long as the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan supported him, he would have the confidence to strike down the opponent!

Since the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the other three powerhouses had taken the initiative to provoke Qin Wushuang, he would not let them do what they wanted. Hee was not a weakling nor an easy-going person.

Especially after the other parties harbored such ingenuine motives and were using Mu Rong Xu to create a scene, this had become Qin Wushuang's new driving force! Whoever gets in his way will suffer!

After he had walked back to the great palace, Qin Wushuang's confident smile was helping lift Mu Rong Xu. Initially, Mu Rong Xu had been deeply worried and queasy, but now felt calm after seeing Qin Wushuang's brilliant smile. His smile reminded her of March's radiant sunshine.

"Lord Mu Rong, the Chief of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan will come."

Overjoyed, Mu Rong Xu knew that since the Chief of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan would come, it proved that her beloved had acquired true status in the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan and received formidable treatment!

Mu Rong Qianji joined in laughter. "Ok, I will send my request to the Heavenly Emperor now."

Upon receiving the request from Mu Rong Qianji, the Heavenly Emperor himself had displayed immense interest. He agreed to Mu Rong Qianji's request and issued the Heavenly Emperor imperial order. It was expected that everyone would compete fairly and not form any lasting grudge that would cause trouble in the future. He also promised that he would send Xin Wuji, the heir of the Heavenly Emperor to supervise.

The son of the Heavenly Emperor, the number one elite warrior known among the young generation of the Xuan Yuan Mound would oversee it! Certainly this would make for a great scene.

This would be the unprecedented great occasion for the Floating Snow House. At this moment, sweeping away their previously gloomy mood, Mu Rong Qianhuan, Mu Rong Qianshan and Mu Rong Qianlin had felt incredibly proud and looked forward to the upcoming grand occasion!

On the other hand, Qin Wushuang was at peace with himself. He knew that most likely, this plot was completely targeted at him and the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan.

This feat was not only to shatter the other party's chances for a proposal, but to fight for his destiny and future with Mu Rong Xu. It would also be about the entangled fate between the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan and the Sound of Thunder Sect, the Heavenly Punishing Villa!

Even before the battle could begin, there were countless layers of significant meaning!

Naturally, Qin Wushuang was fearless. He never feared any battles. Even if he were to face the most promising young talent of the Xuan Yuan Mound, he had nothing to fear. After the battle with the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, Qin Wushuang's state had rose to a completely higher level. He was no longer a martial artist at the level of the human countries. Instead, he was completely adapted into the competitive level of the Xuan Yuan Mound. Additionally, he was handling a butcher's cleaver with ease!
