108 Offerings
"Where is your Wanjian Manor's tribute for this month? And where are your elders and manor lord? I don't care what happened to you, the tribute items cannot be missing."
Then he glanced back at the surviving girl and a dozen or so male servants not far behind him, looking at them expressionlessly, as if they were merchandise, and said...
"Their quality is acceptable. Send them to the alliance as tribute; don't skimp on them next time you come. Otherwise, your Ten Thousand Swords Manor would have no reason to exist."
Qiu An and Gui Lin were completely stunned. They had just been rescued! Following instructions, they settled the survivors and collected the remains and bones. They were so busy that they were out of breath.
Two people suddenly appeared. They claimed to be from the One Qi Alliance, launched into a tirade of insults, and then demanded tribute!
Qiu An, looking uneasy, asked, "Our Ten Thousand Swords Manor has always been a righteous sect. Why would we offer tribute? I've never heard of such a thing before."
The woman chuckled, "Our Qi Alliance is also a righteous sect. We protect the safety of all regions and fight against evil spirits and monsters. Providing them with such a safe environment is only fair; it's only right that they offer some tribute."
Qiu An's face darkened. "When did our Ten Thousand Swords Manor ever join your One Qi Alliance?"
"Hmph, enough nonsense. A year ago, when you joined, it was your own lord of the Ten Thousand Swords Manor who personally came to request it. Now, if you want to back out, it won't be so easy."
After speaking, he unleashed his aura, and the sword energy on his three-foot sword turned green. A strange, dark, and sinister fragrance wafted over, and the two of them immediately felt somewhat confused. He was a sixth-level expert.
Looking at the two women opposite him, they were absolutely stunning. At that moment, one of them was striking a seductive pose, saying, "My lord, come here!"
The two rushed over quickly. Before they could take a step, they cried out, "Ah!" and fell to the ground with a thud.
On his foot, there was a small hole about the size of a thumb, which had just been pierced by a wisp of sword energy, and blood was flowing incessantly!
A woman with an even more slender figure beside him sneered, "They really can't resist temptation. Even the slightest hint of it is enough to make them succumb. This Ten Thousand Swords Manor is truly pathetic!"
"What my sister said is true. Apart from the manor lord and a few elders, the other members of Wan Family Manor are too weak. No, having another place to offer tribute is a good thing."
After all, the checks are stricter now. And, I've heard that someone has formed a group at the border market. This person is extremely ruthless, making it difficult for us to buy anything of decent quality.
The older sister gave a low hum, "Don't worry, little sister. It won't be long before the alliance leader's strength increases. Then we'll go and wipe out that brat He Chen. That way, the border will still be unclaimed and chaotic, which will be easier."
These people, protected by the alliance leader, should be paying tribute, shouldn't they? Otherwise, if the demonic beasts came, it would be their death!
The younger sister agreed, saying, "Sister is right. I wonder what level you've reached in your cultivation? They're captivated by just one look. Is the Alliance Leader captivated too?" The two of them were actually using vulgar language in public. Clearly, they didn't consider them human beings.
"The One Qi Alliance," He Chen murmured. He hadn't heard of it before; he was truly ignorant! But this place belonged to Changzhou, so it was normal not to have heard of it.
"But since you want to kill me, then I won't hold back!" He gently pulled the two women closer and asked, "Will you come with me, or wait for me somewhere else?"
Knowing their lovers' strength, the two women remained silent, simply embracing each other gently around the waist.
Receiving an affirmative answer, he laughed, "Haha, very well, watch me finish this quickly." With a light step, he activated his footwork, using the Cloud Wind Step, carried by the wind, and flashed down to the ground.
'I heard you're going to make offerings, but I don't know what they are. And what are you going to do with them?'
Just then, the sisters were chatting, their conversation growing increasingly vulgar and obscene. Suddenly, they saw two stunningly beautiful women, though clad in black which seemed inappropriate, they were even more beautiful than the divine martial arts they had cultivated. Absolutely unacceptable!
Jealousy immediately arose in my heart!
Looking at He Chen, he was tall and strong, dressed in all black with a sword at his waist, exuding confidence and a captivating fragrance. It was almost impossible to resist him!
She was overjoyed. "Sister, we're so lucky! Such beautiful women and such elegant, picturesque men. It's truly a blessing from heaven! If heaven bestows such a gift and we don't accept it, we'll surely be punished!"
Having said that, he prepared to rush forward. His sister reached out and pulled him back, "Young hero, we don't know where you come from. We, the One Qi Alliance, are merely here to collect tribute as usual. This Wan Family Village joined us, but hasn't offered any tribute for quite some time, so we've come to investigate!"
Having said that, he secretly activated his cultivation technique, and a wisp of the serpent demon's evil energy quietly spread out. The serpent's nature became chaotic!
This technique has attracted many young heroes, resulting in the capture of numerous young men who willingly sacrificed themselves. Women who cultivate the Serpent Demon Heart Sutra become exceptionally beautiful. Men who cultivate it also become exceptionally handsome.
Suddenly, an image appeared before He Chen's eyes. His father floated before him, saying, "That woman over there is so beautiful, why don't you hurry up and pursue her?"
Upon opening his consciousness, he saw that the beautiful woman before him was now completely different. She was old and ugly, her face covered in wrinkles. It gave him goosebumps!
'Is this a temptation?' Then, I didn't want to ask any more questions.
With the gentleman's blade in hand, he casually slashed, unleashing a burst of blade energy. At that moment, he saw He Chen and the two women, their eyes glazed over. The two sisters, who had just smiled slightly, were caught completely off guard.
The blade flashed, aimed straight for her fair neck. Too close, there was no time to dodge. There was no way to avoid it, no way to withstand it!
The older sister grabbed her younger sister. With a push and a block, she quickly used her serpentine footwork to escape at full speed on all four legs.
With a single slash, a head flew off, blood splattering everywhere! The fleeing sister didn't even glance back. She was already ten feet away.
He Chen strode forward, his sword flashing with lightning speed. With a horizontal slash, he was about to sever the head when his sister, as if she had anticipated this, raised her three-foot sword and the tip of her sword met the attack with a clanging sound.
The blade's energy slashed past, and with a cry of "Ah!" he narrowly avoided it, but the energy still grazed his face, leaving a thin line of blood. Black blood slowly oozed out!
"My face, are you trying to kill me?! I'm going to devour you alive!" He was completely insane.
He Chen scanned with his divine sense and saw a faint snake shadow appearing and disappearing within his body. He activated the Thunderfire Heart Technique, gathering immense thunder and flames that roared fiercely.
Swiftly, gathering strength, he leaped down, unleashing a full-force strike. The blow came crashing down, a bloody gash symmetrically slicing through the middle.
Thunder and fire converged, and the snake shadow within his body hadn't even reacted. The lightning struck. It seemed he was reduced to ashes!
At this moment, the two women could no longer hold on. He Chen rushed over immediately, caught them in his arms, and vanished in a flash.
Upon arriving at a secluded spot shrouded in dark clouds, the Sky-Covering Array was activated. The cloud bed offered relative safety. Time to circulate internal energy to heal the poison!
Things have become restless. The cloud bed bobs up and down in the wind! My hair sways from side to side in the wind!
Occasionally, a fluffy tail would appear, wagging gently. Half an hour later.
Calm down. Close your eyes, I'm too tired, I'll fall asleep!
Just then, a gust of wind blew out, and my sweat evaporated rapidly. I felt the urge to hug myself to keep warm. The clouds thickened again, enveloping me once more.
Let's fall into a deep sleep together!
