Fairy Tail: I Am the God
Page 716
Tianming pursed his lips. Besides, the system hadn't told him when he would be able to learn these things; it hadn't even given him a timeframe.
Chapter 1019 Powerful Mechanical Beast
Xiang Yu watched helplessly as Duanmu Rong rescued the person, but he couldn't move. You're right, Xiang Yu was indeed drugged by Duanmu Rong, but this would end in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
They could also use the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to leave, both safely and by taking advantage of their activities to get far away.
"Big sister, you were really amazing just now. I didn't expect you to subdue this person in such a short time."
Tianming's eyes sparkled. No matter how fierce Duanmu Rong was, she couldn't resist the sincere words of a child. So she nodded haphazardly and told Tianming to bring Gai Nie out quickly so that she could take this opportunity to apply medicine to him.
Once everything was settled and Xiang Yu and the others had regained their strength, Tianming asked worriedly, "Big sister, they all seem to have recovered their strength now. If that's the case, how are we going to leave?"
Duanmu Rong smiled and said, "Don't worry, if I want to leave, this place can't hold me back at all."
Wow! Tianming was instantly captivated by this cool older sister, but little did they know, a disaster was about to strike.
At this time, the Qin King sent a large army to surround the Xiang residence. After Xiang Yu recovered his strength, he asked Duanmu Rong to go to the Xiang residence with him. Before they could take any action, they heard from their servants that the Qin Emperor had sent a large army to surround the place.
Xiang Yu's first thought was of Duanmu Rong, since Qin Shi Huang was very likely coming for Gai Nie. He didn't expect that Qin Shi Huang still had as many spies as before.
To prevent these men from escaping, Xiang Yu told them to hurry to their uncle's place and see if his uncle would release them.
Unfortunately, the Xiang family believed that Duanmu Rong was a spy and betrayed them to the King of Qin, who had always wanted to wipe them out.
So they wanted to kill these people, but someone recognized Duanmu Rong's identity and thought that if they killed them in such a hurry, they might not be able to explain it to the Mo family.
Just as they were about to ask what to do, a servant came to report that Qin soldiers had already stormed into the Xiang residence, and if they did not go out to fight, the Xiang family would not be able to hold out for long.
Xiang Yu glared at them fiercely a few times, then asked his uncle if he could use the money to kill these soldiers.
However, Xiang Bo was unwilling. Although he knew that his nephew was highly skilled in martial arts, he was no match for these well-trained soldiers.
So Xiang Bo ordered Xiang Yu to stay there and protect the three of them. Xiang Yu didn't understand why his uncle would give such an order, but he always listened to his uncle, so he reluctantly protected them.
Xiang Bo joined the battle, but many members of the Xiang family had already been injured before that.
Therefore, many people were already exhausted and had no way to cope. In the midst of the chaos, Tianming, who was carrying Gai Nie on his back, and Duanmu Rong originally wanted to escape from this place, but they were surrounded by government soldiers.
Just then, Dongguo Zhi, the leader of the Mohist school, arrived with his men and saved the Xiang family, as well as Tianming and the others.
After killing all the soldiers, Dongguo Zhi ordered Zhang Liang to cover the rear and set up the Bagua Mind-Controlling Formation to prevent anyone from getting close.
When Dongguo Zhi met Duanmu Rong, he fell in love with the beautiful and fiery Duanmu Rong. Although he had liked her for a long time, he always wanted to attract her attention.
But Duanmu Rong didn't like this, so she always spoke harshly to him.
Chapter 1020 Elegant and Refined, Young Master Zhang Liang
Although the woman before him was feisty and beautiful, Dong Guozhi still liked her very much. From the first moment he saw Duanmu Rong, his heart was completely devoted to this woman.
Upon seeing Duanmu Rong, all the other women around her paled in comparison; only she stood out, radiant and beautiful.
"Oh dear, hearing you say that makes me a little sad," Dong Guozhi said, feigning sadness.
Duanmu Rong ignored him and walked directly to Tianming's side, saying to him, "Put him down now and let me see if his wound has reopened."
Upon hearing this, Tianming quickly and gently put Gai Nie down. Then he noticed that Gai Nie's face was even paler than before, and couldn't help but ask Duanmu Rong, "Is Uncle about to die? If not, why does his face look so terrible?"
Just as Tianming put Gai Nie on the ground, everyone present saw it. Among them, Xiang Yu couldn't help but draw his sword and slash at the enemy of their clan, but was stopped by the quick-witted Xiang Bo.
Xiang Bo gently shook his head, signaling his nephew not to do that. It wasn't the right time yet, and besides, they couldn't bring themselves to do it now, since the Mo family was here.
Duanmu Rong remained silent as she watched Gai Nie's wounds worsen, but her furrowed brows betrayed her.
Tianming thought to himself, "It seems that Uncle is really doomed this time. It's all the fault of those pursuers. They made it hard for me to walk while carrying Uncle, and they reopened Uncle's wound."
Seeing this, Dong Guozhi thought his chance to show off had come. Although he hated his beloved woman touching other men's bodies, he felt it was no big deal in order to impress Duanmu Rong.
He took a few steps to Gai Nie's side, but Tianming quickly blocked him, saying fiercely, "Who are you? What do you want? I'm warning you, if you dare to take another step forward, I'll kill you."
Dong Guozhi laughed. Where did this kid come from? It's ridiculous. He even hit me. I wonder if he can defeat me.
He wanted to make sarcastic remarks, but then he remembered that Duanmu Rong and the child had a good relationship. If he angered the child, Tianming might speak ill of him in front of Duanmu Rong, which would be a loss.
So Dongguo Zhi looked at Tianming with a smile and said, "Tianming, you can't be like this. Have you forgotten? We knew each other before, and, well, you know what I mean."
Tianming glared at Dongguo Zhi. So what if they knew each other? Anyone who dared to get close to the uncle now was no good.
"I don't know, I don't understand. Don't go any further. If you do, don't blame me for being rude. In the end, you'll only lose more than you gain!"
This kid, Dong Guozhi never expected to be tricked. He's been acting all high and mighty since we last met.
So Dong Guozhi, not to be outdone, started arguing with Tianming, to the point that everyone present could only watch as two childish brats bickered.
Duanmu Rong was reapplying medicine to Gai Nie, but there was a constant chattering in her ears, so she couldn't help but yell.
"You two, shut up! Can't you even apply the medicine quietly?"
Hearing that Duanmu Rong was angry, the two of them looked at each other and didn't dare to say anything.
Zhang Liang smiled and shook his head, then stepped forward and said to Xiang Bo, "I have come today to seek cooperation with the Xiang clan. I wonder if Lord Xiang Bo would be willing to come with me to the meeting hall to discuss this?"
Chapter 1021 Turning the Tables to Resolve the Situation
Xiang Yu knew from his own experience that this person was not there to negotiate. After all, the Mo family's Eight Trigrams Caution Formation was blocking the Qin army. If they did not agree, they might withdraw.
However, Xiang Bo did not think so. Although their family's enemies were also there, the most important issue now was how to get rid of these Qin soldiers.
Although the formation was very effective, they didn't know how long it could last.
"Very well, I would like to ask Young Master Zhang Liang to accompany me."
Then Xiang Bo led Zhang Liang and him into the main hall, where Leon also appeared.
Tianming couldn't help but get angry when he saw Leon. When they were captured, this man escaped right under their noses and disappeared without a trace.
His sudden appearance now made Tianming feel that Leon was even more unreliable.
Without explaining, Leon walked straight to Duanmu Rong's side and whispered, "Let's carry him inside now. We can also use some hot water to wipe his body."
Duanmu Rong looked up at Leon and casually clicked her tongue. It wasn't that she didn't want to go in, but look at the Xiang family's attitude. They were already being lenient by not sending anyone to beat them up, yet they still dared to make demands.
"Hey, Leon, I know you must have a way, so don't keep it to yourself."
When Tianming saw this person laughing, he knew that the man must be plotting something bad.
Sure enough, Leon didn't waste any words. He took the token that Xiang Bo had given him earlier and went to stand in front of Xiang Bo.
He showed him the token and said something to him, but Xiang Bo's face looked very bad. In the end, he still nodded. Tianming could see clearly that Xiang Bo's nod was reluctant!
Then Leon returned with a smile, followed by two attendants. He then had these two attendants slowly lift Gai Nie and take him to the room that Xiang Bo had prepared for them.
Dong Guo Zhi also wanted to go with Duanmu Rong, but since he was the leader of the Mohist school, Zhang Liang pulled him away.
After all, they hadn't yet made their request to the Xiang family, and they couldn't afford to let sentimentality get the better of them under these circumstances.
On the way to the room, Tianming asked Leon what he had just said to Xiang Bo and why he suddenly agreed. Tianming wondered if the token had played a big role.
Leon thought it was nothing, but he had saved that person's life years ago, and the person had given him a token and told him that he could tell him anything in the future and he would do his best to help.
Tianming stared at Leon speechlessly. Although he had already guessed this situation, hearing it from Leon's own mouth made him feel bored.
Upon learning of Tianming's thoughts, the system burst into laughter and quickly relayed the message to Leon. Leon, upon receiving it, curled his lip and thought, "That brat, really."
He didn't even ask himself where he had gone. Oh well, he had prepared a big gift for this brat anyway.
After escorting Gai Nie to his room, Xiang Bo thoughtfully provided him with food and bath supplies, and Tianming, who hadn't eaten all day, began to wolf down his food.
Duanmu Rong helped Gai Nie change his gauze, wipe his upper body, and then applied the herbal medicine again. She then sat at the table, elegantly drinking water, a stark contrast to Tianming's ravenous eating.
Chapter 1022 The Old Fox in Human Skin
Seeing this, Leon quietly left. He was going to another place to take a good look at the cooperation between the Mo family and the Xiang family.
The other four arrived at the main hall. Zhang Liang spoke first, "Lord Xiang Bo, we came here today to try to broker a cooperation between the Mohist school and the Xiang family. We wonder if you would agree?"
"Impossible. Our Xiang family doesn't need anyone's charity; we can still defeat the Qin soldiers outside."
Xiang Yu spoke up before Xiang Bo could, and Xiang Bo, upon seeing this, angrily rebuked Xiang Yu. He then said to Zhang Liang, "This child has been spoiled by me since he was a child, so he is somewhat ignorant of his place. Please forgive him."
Zhang Liang waved his hand, and Xiang Bo realized just how powerless the Xiang family was because of this incident.
At this moment, Leon also came over, waving his fan and saying, "Thank you so much for your help today, Brother Xiang."
Xiang Bo immediately recalled what had happened at the door. Leon smiled and held the token he had given him, his eyes filled with threat as he said, "Take Gai Nie to his room. If you don't help, don't blame him for breaking the formation."
How could Xiang Bo not agree to that? Besides, he had indeed promised this person that he would help him if he had any problems.
But on the other side were his enemies. Seeing that Xiang Bo still wouldn't agree, Leon said again, "Another wave of Qin soldiers is coming. Are you sure?"
Xiang Bo's expression darkened, and in the end, he had no choice but to agree.
Now that he saw Leon, Xiang Bo wished he could kill the token he had given him. He finally realized that the person in front of him was not a good person at all, but a fox in human skin.
"No, no, I wouldn't dare," Xiang Bo replied with a livid face.
Dong Guozhi just smiled and nodded when he saw Leon. He didn't want to be with this cunning person. Who knows, he might gnaw you to pieces one day. Leon was really scary.
Zhang Liang showed no unusual behavior and greeted Xiang Yu as before, while Xiang Yu ignored him.
