Rebirth of Devouring Dragon Emperor

Chapter 416 Giving in

Although people's appearances are all different, people who are related by blood always have similarities.

Ye Qing has lived for so many years that his eyesight is not comparable to that of ordinary people on Earth. If he looks carefully at these people on Earth, he can probably tell that they are somewhat similar.

Therefore, he quickly found out the one among these seven or eight earthly immortals who belonged to the Xiao family.

Compared to the Xiao family immortal who was crushed to death by him in the square before, the one in front of him looked older and stronger.

After the Xiao family's earthly immortal entered the room, his gaze, like everyone else's, instantly focused on Ye Qing.

But unlike the others, his eyes were very complicated, with curiosity, anger, hatred, uneasiness, anxiety, and fear...

There are so many different things.

However, he didn't seem to have too strong hatred, which surprised Ye Qing.

Logically speaking, he crippled Xiao Feng, killed Xiao Yun and one of the two earthly immortals of the Xiao family. This person should have wanted to kill him.

However, he never expected that after this person entered the room, he did not have the slightest intention of attacking him. On the contrary, this person was still suppressing his emotions, as if he was afraid of being too conspicuous and thus attracting his attention.

But what this person doesn’t know is how sharp his senses are.

With a little attention, he noticed the difference of this earthly immortal from the Xiao family, and just by looking at him more carefully, he had guessed his identity.

Then, he asked directly.

When the Xiao family's earthly immortal heard Ye Qing's question, his expression suddenly froze.

Ye Qing's actions caught him off guard.

He never thought that he had concealed his identity very well and was very careful, so as not to let Ye Qing know his identity too early.

He wanted to observe Ye Qing first and find out more about Ye Qing before making a decision.

However, he never expected that Ye Qing would find him at a glance, and then put the two of them on opposite sides with just one sentence.

At this moment, he can no longer keep a low profile.

He had to respond to Ye Qing's question, which meant he had to make a choice.

Should I attack Ye Qing or bow to Ye Qing?

To launch an attack means to mobilize the Xiao family to fight against Ye Qing and avenge the dead.

He bowed his head and naturally begged Ye Qing for mercy, begging Ye Qing to let the Xiao family go. At the same time, he would not pursue those people from the Xiao family who were killed or injured at the hands of Ye Qing, and would put aside all hatred. Those who were killed or injured would be considered to have died in vain.

How should he choose?

The Xiao family's earthly immortal hesitated for only a second before making a decision.

"Senior, you misunderstood."

He looked at Ye Qing and shook his head, saying, "I am not here to accuse you of anything. I am here to reach a settlement with you on behalf of the Xiao family, and at the same time, to apologize for the offense that our family members have committed against you before."

He gave up decisively.

Before coming, he looked at the two corpses of his own family, one old and one young, in the hall where the earthly immortals gathered. He was furious. Even though he was dissuaded in every way, he still couldn't swallow this anger. He vowed to see Ye Qing's ability with his own eyes before making a decision.

However, when he got here, he instantly became cowardly, and the time he spent on making his choice was less than two seconds.

He chose to bow to Ye Qing, which also meant that the entire Xiao family bowed to Ye Qing.

They would no longer pursue the matter of Ye Qing killing their people, and in order to resolve the grudge with Ye Qing, they would have to pay something.

This is the price of bowing your head.

However, he still chose to give in.

the reason is simple.

Because the corpse of the earth immortal in Ye Qing's hand was not yet completely cold.

The fear on the corpse's face was terrifying.

Just now when they were outside the house, the earth immortal's miserable plea for mercy and Ye Qing's cold words were enough to make him lose all the courage to go against Ye Qing.

He can't afford to offend this person.

You can’t mess with the Xiao family!

He even realized just now that he was almost blinded by hatred.

Their advice was correct. Such a terrifying Ye Qing was not someone they could deal with at all. If the Xiao family insisted on going against Ye Qing, then the only thing waiting for them was the extermination of their entire clan.

He almost became the sinner of the Xiao family's destruction!

The Xiao family's earthly immortal was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.

And after Ye Qing asked this, he no longer dared to be tough and could only lower his posture.

He didn't dare to provoke Ye Qing.

He had seen Ye Qing's indifference, and he also knew that Ye Qing would kill someone over a disagreement, so he was not sure whether Ye Qing was holding a grudge or whether he would kill someone just because his attitude was slightly wrong.

He didn't dare to gamble.

Therefore, he could only admit defeat, be humble, and beg for mercy.

In order to protect his family, he had no choice but to do this. This was the only way he could go.

"what?"

Ye Qing was still somewhat surprised at the attitude of the Xiao family's earthly immortal.

He had seen too many stupid guys who couldn't see the situation clearly in front of him, couldn't distinguish reality, and even selectively ignored certain things and couldn't see him clearly.

Ultimately, leading to death.

Unexpectedly, this earthly immortal from the Xiao family had some foresight and knew that he couldn't afford to offend him.

Ye Qing's eyes swept over Wan Qianbai and Du Ling.

The two men's expressions froze, especially Wan Qianbai, whose expression was a little awkward, as if he wanted to explain something but didn't know how to say it.

Ye Qing immediately knew that the Xiao family's earthly immortal had such an attitude, most likely because of Wan Qianbai.

I must have persuaded him privately.

But he didn't care about it. He didn't argue with Wan Qianbai, but turned his attention to the Xiao family's earthly immortal again: "Do you know that I was the one who crippled Xiao Feng of your Xiao family?"

The Xiao family earth immortal was stunned when he heard this, then nodded and replied: "I know."

"Then do you know that I just killed two people from your Xiao family and disabled one, and one of them is the next heir to the Xiao family, and the other is a terrestrial immortal?"

Ye Qing asked again.

"……Know."

The old man from the Xiao family continued to answer, his expression a little stiff.

"So, you don't know there's a deep hatred between us?"

Ye Qing asked again.

The old man from the Xiao family started to get nervous now.

Ye Qing's first two questions were undoubtedly like rubbing salt into his wounds, trying to uncover his scars and expose his wounds so that they could not be hidden.

Moreover, it happened in front of so many people.

He had already admitted his mistake, but Ye Qing didn't let him go and even humiliated him like this. One can imagine how frustrated he felt.

However, as soon as the third question came up, his frustration was immediately thrown out of his mind.

Now all that was left in his heart was nervousness.

What does Ye Qing mean by this?
It is true that there is a deep hatred between them, but why should they speak it out?
Could it be that Ye Qing does not intend to resolve the hatred between them, but instead wants to confront them to the end?
In other words, Ye Qing is still unwilling to let the Xiao family go?

Is it not enough to cripple and kill two people? Do we have to kill them all?
The Xiao family's earthly immortal immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"Senior, that... our Xiao family offended you before. They were at fault first. Although your punishment was a bit harsh, they deserved it. We dare not put the blame on you, and we have no intention of making an enemy of you."

The Xiao family earth immortal looked at Ye Qing and said cautiously: "So, in fact... there is no deep hatred between us. At most, they were too arrogant, so they were punished. I hope you will not vent your anger on the entire Xiao family because of their personal offense against you. I am here to apologize to you on behalf of the Xiao family!"

As he said this, he actually bowed respectfully to Ye Qing.

Ye Qing was slightly stunned.

"So, you don't plan to avenge them?"

Ye Qing looked at the Xiao family's earth immortal carefully, saw the seriousness on his face, and asked.

Hearing Ye Qing's question, the Xiao family's earthly immortal shook his head repeatedly.

"No revenge, no revenge."

He said repeatedly: "Senior, you are willing to end the feud with the Xiao family and not bother with us. We are already very grateful. How dare we seek revenge? Those guys deserved it. It would have been fine if they had caused trouble themselves, but they almost implicated the family. They really deserved it."

The Xiao family's earthly immortal has completely given up on all his dignity.

In order to protect his family, he gave up all his face and dignity.

Ye Qing looked at him for a while, said nothing, and then turned his head.

The Xiao family's earthly immortal breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Qing's action most likely means that he will no longer bother with the Xiao family.

Just don’t care about it, just don’t care about it!

As long as Ye Qing lets the Xiao family go and doesn't kill them all, everything will be fine.

Although they lost an earthly immortal, which is equivalent to losing an arm, at least they still have another one. They can get through the days ahead if they are a little cautious.

If Ye Qing still pursues the matter, then there will be no future.

At this moment, he actually began to feel fortunate and even a little grateful to Ye Qing.

Thank you Ye Qing for your magnanimity!

At the same time, he cursed Xiao Feng, Xiao Yun and the others in his heart. It was bad enough that they acted recklessly and caused trouble everywhere, but this time they even brought such a big devil to the family...

He deserved to die!
