Chapter 109: Allow Me to Make Peace

Not a single one of the imperial guards remained. Only the five eunuchs were left behind.

They had the upper hand and was more dominant, but now, the tables had turned!

Mi Kongqun was shaking with anger; his long slits that served as eyes stared at Qiu Jianhan like a venomous snake, his gaze was filled with endless malice.

Qiu Jianhan waved the sleeve of his robe, saying softly, "This old one has no interest in interfering with the vengeance of the martial arts world. Such petty personal grudges! Let me warn both of you - don't ever kick up a fuss in the city of the emperor or this old one won't be as merciful the next time!"

"Let us leave!"

"Mi Kongqun, we shall settle our differences after you finished putting these petty insignificances in order! This old one will not take advantage of your situation today. I suggest you be wise and do the right thing."

With a nod, the old marshal turned and left with big strides, not leaving a gap for anyone to interfere.

Yun Yang and the others were utterly impressed!

Old Marshal Qiu was indeed the expert. As they said, the older the wiser! His thuggish ways were really something to behold.

Yun Yang was immensely impressed!

Old Marshal Qiu Jianhan's roguish ways were divinely and perfectly timed.

He saw his nephew about to crumble and stepped in right away without waiting for the situation to worsen.

His strike landed on the Achilles’ heel without mercy.

Short and precise with the nation’s justice as his main point, it was an eye for an eye, tearing Mi Kongqun’s domineering aura to shreds and leaving him no chance to retort.

If Mi Kongqun dared to counter his argument, Qiu Jianhan would seize him immediately; the procedure that would follow was only taking its natural course.

Even if Mi Kongqun was wise and dared not to retaliate, Old Marshal Qiu could still drive his people away using his authority and in the name of justice, strip them of any support.

Old Marshal Qiu, who had taken sides despite saying that he could not be bothered since it was the martial arts world’s matter and he would not capitalize on the situation, had left just like that.

No, he had actually left behind a threat as well - we shall settle our dispute after you take care of things here.

Basically, it meant that if you did not take care of it nicely, this old one shall really settle the differences with you! Settle everything once and for all!

Let’s see how you tackle my nephew!

It would be your misfortune if you were knocked, bruised, wounded, or even dead when my nephew struck but if something happened to him, we shall go on ‘settling’ our differences!

The shamelessness of being thick-skinned in this was nothing compared to the thickness of a city wall! It should at least be compared to the corner of a city wall!

"He is indeed a real pain in the neck, the original thug, the epitome and perfect embodiment of being unreasonable! The exemplary paradigm! Impressive, I’m in awe!" Yun Yang was deeply moved.

There was so much room for improvement and so much for him to learn on being shameless, being a pain in the neck, playing the rogue and being absolutely unreasonable!

Look at the old marshal, he had turned the tables around the moment he saw that his nephew was at a disadvantage.

The marshal’s tactic was so much more cunning than the crooked ones he had thought of just now - simple, rebellious, and direct!

The effect was instantaneous, the impression lasting and real!

Looking at the five eunuchs who were dumbfounded, they could barely contain their laughter. There are just a few of you castrated men , who had long stayed hidden in the palace, and you want to pick a fight with Qiu Jianhan, the veteran rogue, the original thug, the real pain in the neck?

Both parties were on two wholly different levels!

Even if you discounted everything else, both sides were already different by one important organ!

Mi Kongqun snorted coldly with squinted eyes, looking at where Qiu Jianhan left.

"The old marshal is eloquent with his gift of parting words. This is just a petty personal grudge, why kick up such a fuss? The hour is late too, let’s settle this quickly. It’s nothing big after all, it’s only right we end this with haste." Yun Yang stepped forth with graceful steps and began mediating. "Actually, I believe that this was just all a misunderstanding. Keeper Mi is not an outsider, Young Master Qiu is also a friend; let’s talk harmoniously to end this misunderstanding. How about that?"

Mi Kongqun scanned Yun Yang with his icy gaze, clueless as to who this fellow, who had popped out of thin air, was.

Who do you think you are, forcefully being the peacemaker between two strongly opposing parties? Who gave you the right?

"Never mind, you folks are really reluctant to talk." Yun Yang changed his tone immediately seeing that no one was going to reply him. "There’s always a plaintiff and defendant in all grudges. Let’s end the matter of the martial arts world with the ways of the martial arts world. Why not be straightforward and end this resentment here with the ways of a martial artist!"

"I suggest a fight!"

"The harder your blow is, the more correct you are." Yun Yang said, "On one side will be the four great families while the other side, the five eunuchs. From the number of people, five is still more than four; I can chip in too. It’s Eunuch Wu over there, isn’t it? We've acquainted already, let us have a chat! I’ll leave the rest to the rest of you."

He was being utterly shameless! As Yun Yang finished speaking and when the rest were still in a daze, he had sprung up and charged towards Eunuch Wu.

Let ninth sir have a proper look at this fellow’s real ability.

On the other side, Qiu Yunsan was easily compliant. "Boss Yun’s words are exactly my thoughts

. Leave Keeper Mi’s people alone, we shall only be serving Keeper Mi alone today! Charge!"

Before the echo of his words had the chance to quieten, the eight main guards of the four noble families and the other guards had already dashed forward.

They were seasoned players of such events, not daring to make any rash moves, not when the imperial guards were plenty and their dominance distinct. Now that the scales had tipped, in addition to the obvious implied killing intent by Old Marshal Qiu before he left, it was best if they could keep Keeper Mi in his place once and for all. Besides, how could Dong Tianleng and gang be left out in the name of doing others a favor, just to go along with the advantageous situation and bully the minority?

"Here we come! F*cking sheet, not only were we manipulated by you this time, the aftermath we were in had come from this too. We have to settle this with Mi Kongqun!"

"Yes, I need his compensation for my smallpox!"

"Me too!"

"That Shui Yuehan is most probably his accomplice as well!"

"Exactly right, they must belong to the same team! Look out for my punch!"

…

Eunuch Wu who saw Yun Yang charging towards him fled without a single word or change of expression.

Yun Yang gave chase, throwing a brick right at the back of Eunuch Wu’s head; it struck with a thud; the man giving a dull groan of pain.

This was only the beginning though. Yun Yang had somehow managed to procure seven to eight bricks in his arms and threw them at the eunuch one after another. Eunuch Wu struggled, finally running to a corner but he had already been hit by five to six bricks then.

The impact was hard, the eunuch was bleeding and swelling in the places where the bricks had made contact.

Yun Yang was thrilled, knowing that this man did not dare expose his real abilities out in public. He enjoyed the situation; he could attack him directly since the eunuch was holding himself back. You could either expose yourself or die from being hit by me!

Yun Yang roared and gave chase with all his might. However, he was stunned when reached the turn.

The street was empty. No trace of Eunuch Wu could be seen

.

"He has indeed escaped!" Yun Yang turned to return right away, refusing to give this fellow a chance to assassinate him. He could not win him now so it was already great that he could take his advantage like this.

"This fellow will indeed only show his real cultivation base when away from the attention of the crowd and won’t give me a chance to retaliate." Yun Yang thought as he walked, "But shouldn’t this fellow be in the same gang as Mi Kongqun? Why does he not dare to showcase his real ability in front of him?"

"He’d rather be beaten to death and humiliated badly but won’t show his real strength. Why is that?"

This was the current riddle but Yun Yang believed that he could solve it soon now.

This man had already suffered twice from his actions; it would be the biggest puzzle if he did not wish to take revenge.

Just from the last incident, he had come back for revenge rather quickly. It was easy to determine this person’s vengeful personality. Yun Yang believed that he would try to kill him again soon and he would be able to figure everything out then!

…

When Yun Yang returned to the scene once again, he was shocked.

Three out of the four eunuchs who were left had already collapsed, leaving only Mi Kongqun alone to defend himself. Mi Kongqun’s abilities were exceptional, looking rather relaxed even when he was alone against the attacks of four young masters, eight guards, and some thirty to forty experts!

He moved around the crowd agilely, his occasional attacks were sure to strike someone and send him retreating and bleeding!

This Keeper Mi was obviously an accomplished expert!

He could keep up with the simultaneous attacks of forty to fifty experts. Although most of them were in their fourth or fifth peak, all eight guards were the sixth peak and above, two of them were even seventh peak experts!

The combined effort was a significantly mighty power but even they could not take down Mi Kongqun!

From what Yun Yang was seeing, Mi Kongqun was not even using his maximum ability.

Either it was Old Marshal Qiu’s echoing warning or he knew himself that it meant nothing for both parties to have a brawl in the open; it could even be the buffer they needed to end this grudge. However, if he had really killed these four popinjays by mistake… even if he was divinely skillful or even if he hid in the palace forever, he would never be able to escape his fate of death by the hands of four noble families.

Yun Yang was extremely sharp, being able to pick up this point instantly. He had even concluded that his own group would not be able to kill Mi Kongqun tonight!

"Stop it!" Yun Yang hollered. "Everyone, honor my presence, please! Let me be the peacemaker!"
