Chapter 1229: Taking the Initiative!
Seeing the suspicious looks from everyone, Qin Tian chuckled lightly, "What, you don't believe me?"
"Boss, it's not that we don't believe you, it's just that the enemy's strength is truly terrifying, so I think..."
Lin Yu didn't finish his sentence, but Qin Tian waved his hand, "Second brother, I understand what you mean. But, when have you ever seen me boasting or being overly confident?"
Qin Tian's question stumped Lin Yu.
The group thought carefully and realized, indeed, Qin Tian had always been humble and never exaggerated his abilities.
Duan Xiaodao stood up and said, "Actually, the boss is right. Honestly, second brother, your concerns are unnecessary. On this Earth, with the boss's and Qiuniang's Qi Refining Middle Stage skills, even if they can't win, probably no one can catch them if they decide to run. So, you're overthinking it."
"However, boss, I have an unreasonable request," Duan Xiaodao changed the subject, "I want to go with you."
"What are you going for? You're not healed, and we also need someone to protect here..."
"Boss, I..."
"I know it's because of the Purple Heavenly King Han Zishuang, fourth brother, don't worry, even if Qiuniang and I confront her, we absolutely won't harm her." Qin Tian comforted Duan Xiaodao.
"That's not the only reason, boss, I... I just... want to see her..."
Upon hearing this from Duan Xiaodao, Qin Tian understood very well that the fourth brother, troubled by love, was no longer the cold and unsympathetic person he used to be, but a lovestruck fool.
"Then let's go together."
Qin Tian thought for a moment and said.
He knew that even if he didn't let Duan Xiaodao go with them, Duan Xiaodao would go to find Han Zishuang by himself.
His injuries aren't healed yet, and meeting Han Zishuang might be dangerous. It's safer to go together.
Zhou Yang and the others also wanted to go, but they were aware that their strength wasn't enough yet, so they only mentioned it casually.
"Ma'am..."
"Qiuniang, I told you, don't call me 'ma'am,' just call me Murong."
"How can that be, that's how the boss calls you, I... then can I call you Sister Fei? Although I'm actually older than you..."
"Anything's fine, it's just a title."
While everyone in the living room was making a major decision, several women came back outside.
However, the scene upon their return made Qin Tian quite surprised.
Du Qiuniang was holding Murong Fei's arm, and the two of them were chatting and laughing as they came back from outside. They looked like close sisters, entirely unlike they had just had a conflict!
"These women... change so easily... I can't keep up." As a seasoned womanizer, Xiao Zhuang was dumbfounded.
"Why, do you have a problem?"
Murong Fei and Du Qiuniang walked up to Qin Tian, and seeing him staring at her, Murong Fei said.
"No, no problem..."
Qin Tian chuckled and looked at Du Qiuniang, who also smiled.
"Qiuniang, come over here, I need to tell you something."
Without another word, Qin Tian pulled Du Qiuniang aside.
He first told Du Qiuniang about the decision they had just made, and Du Qiuniang said, "Alright, dealing with enemies like Skull, Qiuniang wants to accompany the boss. Qiuniang will follow the boss's arrangements."
After she finished speaking, she was about to turn back, but Qin Tian hurriedly pulled her back.
"Boss, didn't you say you had something to tell me, is there more?" Du Qiuniang looked back at Qin Tian.
"Yes, um... I was just curious, weren't you worried that Murong was angry at you earlier? Yet in just ten minutes, you managed to smooth things over?"
Qin Tian was puzzled. In his impression, Murong Fei was a stubborn woman. Even if Du Qiuniang apologized, it would take one or two days for Murong Fei to let it go.
Solving it in just ten minutes? Qin Tian felt that Du Qiuniang was even better at coaxing women than he was.
"Yeah, Sister Fei is quite nice, no grudges." Du Qiuniang said.
"You just apologized, and Murong became as close to you as a sister?"
"Of course not, I promised Sister Fei something."
"What did you promise?"
"To help her with cultivation. I told Sister Fei that I am a Qi Refining Middle Stage Immortality Cultivator and can help her, and then Sister Fei was really nice to me."
"Uh..."
Qin Tian rolled his eyes, thinking, smart! Qiuniang's move was indeed smart! She hit Murong's weak spot.
One must know, currently, Murong Fei is basically obsessed with cultivation, wanting to become stronger.
At this time, with Du Qiuniang, such a cultivation expert, promising to help her, she must be overjoyed and wouldn't have time to be upset over a small matter.
"Then, it's settled with dealing with Skull. Me, fourth brother, and Qiuniang, the three of us are more than enough. You guys focus on cultivating and strengthening yourselves as quickly as possible. We have a long road ahead."
After making the decision, Qin Tian took Duan Xiaodao and Du Qiuniang and left the camp.
"The Heavenly Kings, they're coming out! Qin Tian has returned. Qin Tian, Duan Xiaodao, and the woman he brought back, the three of them have left the camp."
When the three of them left the camp, information was instantly relayed to Skull's side.
Near the camp, there were spies set up all over by Skull.
"Very good, keep investigating, see if it's just the three of them or if those cowardly War Dragons have come out too!"
The Red Heavenly King said coldly in a room.
Beside him stood the Gold Heavenly King and the White Heavenly King.
Three of the Four Heavenly Kings were present, only the Purple Heavenly King Han Zishuang was missing.
"Red Heavenly King! Red Heavenly King! They're here!"
At this moment, a subordinate ran in a panic into their room.
Before the three could ask, the subordinate said, "The War Dragon's Qin Tian, Duan Xiaodao, and a woman, they've found their way here, just three miles away!"
White Heavenly King was taken aback, "How did they find their way here?"
"They captured our two scouts and coerced them. Those two traitors, scared of dying, led them here!"
"Heh, Qin Tian, I wasn't looking for him, yet he delivers himself to me, good! Saves me the trouble!"
The Red Heavenly King gritted his teeth, his eyes emitting a red glow.
He was the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings, at the Qi Refining Early Stage, on par with Han Zishuang. However, he was arrogant and had never fought with Qin Tian, naturally not taking Qin Tian seriously.
"Let them in!"
The Red Heavenly King said confidently.
"Big brother, should we inform our master? That boy Qin Tian is indeed not weak, and now with that traitor Duan Xiaodao assisting him, it might not be easy for us to win." Gold Heavenly King said.
White Heavenly King nodded in agreement, "True, in a one-on-one fight, probably none of us three can beat Qin Tian. So, even if we don't tell our master, we should at least notify our two allies here in Zhonghai City. I think with Qin Tian showing up, they'd be very interested in teaming up with us to take him down!"
