Ch. 491 - Jade Beast Appears
The armored young woman quickly said, “Father, don’t be hasty. We should understand the situation first.”
“You, explain, what’s going on?” the middle-aged man glared at the nearby guards and asked angrily.
The two guards trembled all over, not daring to hide anything, and told the whole story in detail.
After hearing it, the middle-aged man frowned slightly and looked at Xu Zimo. “Even if my son was at fault, you think you can bully someone from the Jin Clan?”
“What a hassle,” Xu Zimo shook his head. “In that case, why don’t you gather all the members of the Jin Clan in a line? I’ll just kill them all at once.”
“You…!” the middle-aged man grunted, and the aura of an Empyrean Meridian realm cultivator surged from him.
“Father, don’t forget why we’re on this trip,” the young woman beside him said.
“Zhao’er, what do you mean?” the man asked, suppressing his anger.
Jin Qizhao took a deep breath and calmly said, “Father, let me handle this matter.”
She turned to Xu Zimo and said, “Young master, regardless of the circumstances, even if my brother started it, you did strike him. Why don’t we call it even?”
“Zhao’er, you…” the middle-aged man looked surprised.
Even Jin Chicheng looked confused. “Sister, you’re just letting me get hit for nothing?”
Jin Qizhao didn’t look at anyone else. Her eyes stayed on Xu Zimo, waiting for his reply.
Xu Zimo glanced at the one-armed elder, the Bloodthirsty Mad Blade. That elder had seen his strength on the ship. He must have given Jin Qizhao a warning. Otherwise, this incident wouldn’t have ended so easily.
“Doesn’t matter to me,” Xu Zimo said, returning the elder’s smile, then turned and reclined on the lounge chair again.
“Zhao’er, why?” the middle-aged man asked in confusion.
“I won’t allow anything to go wrong with this mission, Father. You understand why,” Jin Qizhao said coolly. “There’s no need to stir up trouble.”
The man snorted but didn’t say more. Even though the Jin Clan was the top clan in Gold Forest City, it had gradually declined in recent years. Now that his daughter had joined Sky Blade Sect and become the sect leader’s personal disciple, the family’s future depended on her. He dared not go against her.
More importantly, his daughter had always been strong-willed and independent, always striving to be better than others.
After the conflict died down, the middle-aged man and Jin Chicheng left in a gloomy mood.
Jin Qizhao then looked to the Bloodthirsty Mad Blade and asked softly, “Master, is he really that powerful? He looks about my age.”
“Zhao’er, never underestimate the people of the world,” the elder said with a shake of his head.
