Chapter 2245: Chapter 2245: Not fighting the bad guys, just targeting you!
“Take down the bad guy, and you’ll be Nuonuo’s real dad!”
An Jiuyue: “?”
Qian Jiyun, who was just about to make a move: “!!!”
That son of his, he really wanted to toss him away and make a new one with An Jiuyue. Honestly, he couldn’t stand listening to the little baby talk; every single word was an attack on his dignity as a father!
“You little rascal, better watch out or your dad might stop fighting the bad guys and focus on giving you a beating!” An Jiuyue said exasperatedly, raising her hand to pinch the little baby’s cheek.
Is this how you cheer your dad on? Always saying shocking things! If someone were listening, they’d think he wasn’t the real father here!
But she knew too well—if this little baby went a day without seeing his dad, he’d surely start clamoring to see him again. The father and son duo were incredibly close, yet every time they came together, squabbles were inevitable!
Over there, there was hardly any need to look at how the fight was unfolding.
The men of the Former Sovereign Emperor couldn’t withstand a single move from Qian Jiyun. As soon as he released his oppressive aura, they all fell to their knees like dominoes, “thud, thud, thud.”
The Former Sovereign Emperor, seeing how utterly useless his men were and knowing he couldn’t escape, decisively knelt before Qian Jiyun himself.
“Mercy, my lord, mercy! The Yiinn Family matter truly has nothing to do with me… no, with me personally. I was merely assisting the Emperor of Beikun. It was all his idea!”
He felt wronged—he didn’t even gain much from the Yiinn Family! How did he end up at a dead end where the blame had to fall on him too?
To think, the last time the Yiinn Stone Space had opened, the treasures obtained by his men were far less than those seized by Beikun Kingdom and the Central Imperial Country. In his view, his part in it was merely a side note.
“You certainly plead your case quickly.”
Yuu Rong, seeing him drop to his knees, was almost startled out of his skin.
That guy folded way too easily, didn’t he? Wasn’t it said that he was stronger than both the Emperor of Beikun and Emperor Zhong, with incredibly high cultivation?
But he sure didn’t look the part, more like a useless rabble incapable of achieving anything substantial.
Then again, thinking about it, if he truly were any good, he wouldn’t have turned his schemes toward the Yiinn Family—plotting their annihilation, no less. That was just asking to die, wasn’t it?
As long as the Yiinn Stone Space remained closed for too long, the Demon Heart Hall would inevitably catch wind of it, and then the High Priest Demon Heart would surely come knocking.
Escape for them? Fundamentally impossible.
“You feel wronged, eh? Why don’t you ask the members of the Yiinn Family that you plotted against and killed whether they feel wronged?” he said, stepping forward and kicking the Former Sovereign Emperor away.
Already bruised and battered, the Former Sovereign Emperor crumpled to the ground like a turtle flipped onto its back, his limbs flailing as he cried out in pain.
Yuu Rong turned his head away, unable to bear looking at such a disgusting sight.
What he didn’t know was that, as he looked away, the Former Sovereign Emperor—still whimpering moments ago—curled his lips into a cunning smile and suddenly sprang up.
Somehow, a dagger had appeared in his hand, which he now aimed straight at Yuu Rong’s neck.
“Watch out!”
Before Yuu Rong could react, Leng Yikun’s voice rang out.
In the next instant, the Former Sovereign Emperor was sent flying by a powerful kick—it was Leng Yikun who took action. He had been closely watching the Former Sovereign Emperor ever since Yuu Rong had moved toward him.
As expected, the Former Sovereign Emperor hadn’t given up. He planned to use Yuu Rong’s life as leverage to force their hand, allowing him to escape. Truly, his calculations had gone overboard.
Yuu Rong turned back to see the Former Sovereign Emperor lying crumpled on the ground after being kicked away. He blinked in confusion for a moment before turning to look at Leng Yikun beside him.
“That was…”
