Chapter 1648: You come, I go (1) Chapter 1648: You come, I go (1) âCommander Xia sure knows how to joke.â The eighth Guardian spoke in a daze, not knowing how to reply to Xia qingchenâs words.
what?
â Xia qingchen seriously replied, â what joke am I making?
â
Here it comes again!
The eighth Guardian bared his teeth and said,âcommander Xia, do you understand your situation?â At a time like this, youâre still watching the old people kneel and offer their heads?â
Xia qingchen flipped through the pages of his book and said nonchalantly, ââMe?
I was assassinated by an old man and Iâm the victim.
Whatâs wrong?â
The eighth Guardian rolled his eyes and said,âdid I say that?
Iâm referring to your current situation!â
âRiding a Tiger and finding it hard to get off, who?â Xia qingchen shifted his gaze away and said, â you mean the old man?
Iâm sorry, but Iâve never thought of them as Tigers.
Theyâre just sick cats at best.â
The eighth Guardian opened his mouth, but he could not say anything.
âI canât even communicate with you.â I wonât waste any more time, â the eighth Guardian said.
Iâm here today to deliver a few words from the Grand Guardian.
Only then did Xia qingchen put down his book.
He glanced at him, his expression very calm.
âSpeak.â
It was as if he already knew why the eighth Guardian was here.
The eighth Guardian extended three fingers and said, â
âThereâs no need to be first!â
âSecond, the big picture is the most important!â
third, reduce big things to small ones!
The three âbigâ represented the attitude of the tomb keeper.
What he meant was that there was no need to go head to head with the elders.
He had to look at the big picture and reduce this big matter to a small one.
When Xia qingchen heard this, he smiled and didnât say anything.
âWhat are you laughing at?â âI think the Grand Guardian is right,â the eighth Guardian said seriously.
Xia qingchen smiled calmly.
Iâm laughing.
The tomb keeperâs attitude isnât unexpected.
From the very beginning, he had already anticipated the attitude of the tomb keeper-to keep the peace.
Why?
Because they werenât the ones being assassinated, they werenât the ones being humiliated, and they werenât the ones losing face.
So, of course, they wanted to keep the peace.
The eighth Guardian tutted and said,âwhy donât you understand?â Youâre the one in a disadvantageous position, so keeping things to yourself is the best way.â
Xia qingchen retorted, â you want me to keep the peace?
are you saying that I deserve to be assassinated?
thereâs no need for the old people to take responsibility for hiding the murderer?
itâs also fine even if I lost all my face at noon?
â
The third question gave the eighth Guardian a headache.
then let me ask commander Xia, do you really have a way to make those old people obediently kneel and give up their heads?
â
âThey donât fear anyone other than the chief gravekeeper.
What makes you think you can make them do this?â
âSince you canât do it, whatâs the point of being in a stalemate?
Itâs better to take the initiative to declare peace.â
Xia qingchen replied,âfirst!
I have a way to make them kneel and offer their heads!
Second, they might not be afraid of you, but they have to be afraid of me, Xia qingchen!
Third, even if I take a step back, would they be willing to accept my declaration of reconciliation?â
The eighth Guardian didnât even bother to listen to the first two points.
Who didnât know how to say harsh words?
Regarding the last point, he patted his chest and said, â donât worry about that.
As long as you are willing to publicly announce a settlement, the gravekeeper will be willing to come forward and negotiate with the elders.
I believe they will be willing to give you face.
when the time comes, the elders will also announce to the outside world that they have reached a settlement.
the conflict between you two will naturally be resolved.
Thereâs no such thing as losing face or not.
His thoughts were pretty good, but Xia qingchen merely laughed it off.
Letâs not talk about whether the old men would give face to the chief gravekeeper and sincerely announce a truce.
Even if they announced a settlement, from the perspective of outsiders, it would seem that he, Xia qingchen, was the one who admitted defeat first.
He was the one who had spoken those harsh words, yet he took the initiative to announce a truce when the time was almost up.
No matter how one looked at it, Xia qingchen was the one showing weakness, right?
This was even more laughable than the elderly not coming on time to kneel and deliver their heads.
Fortunately, the eighth Guardian had the face to say that there was no such thing as losing face first.
Moreover, if they were to take a step back and reconcile, would the conflict be naturally resolved?
Why was the matter of him, Xia qingchen, being assassinated written off just like that?
was he going to act as if it had never happened?
âCommander Xia, say something, is this okay or not?â
Xia qingchen waved his hand.
you can go back now.
Pass on my message!
âFirst place!
A vile person intoxicated by success!â
âSecond!
Be careful!â
âThird!
A small punishment and a big warning!â
When the eighth Guardian heard this, he rolled his eyes.âItâs a waste of your breath to talk to me like this!â
Xia qingchen retorted with three idioms,âsmallâ.
What he meant was that the old people were villains who got what they wanted, so the Grand tomb Guardian had better be careful.
After all, a dam of a thousand Li could collapse at the hands of an ant nest.
He definitely couldnât let the old people off.
He would use this incident as a small punishment to warn them.
âIf you understand, then pass on the message.â âSend our guest off!â Xia qingchen said indifferently.
âYou âŠâ The eighth Guardian was dissatisfied.
The guard outside the door had already entered and interrupted him, ââEighth Guardian, please!â
The eighth tomb Guardian glared at Xia qingchen and flicked his sleeves.
âThe stones in the latrine pit are stinky and hard!â
Seriously, he was doing this for Xia qingchenâs own good, but in the end, the other party didnât even appreciate it!
Did he have to wait until noon to become the laughingstock of all mankind?
They were in the human Alliance.
Once the news spread, it would spread to every corner of the continent at an alarming speed.
From then on, everyone would know about it.
This would be a fatal blow to Xia qingchenâs prestige!
âYou donât know what a good person is like!â The eighth tomb Guardian said hatefully.
He left the tent with a gloomy face and happened to meet Zhang Xiaofeng and old Duke Yu.
âMy Lord, are you here to help master Xia?â Zhang Xiaofeng asked with a smile.
The eighth tomb Guardian did not even look at her.
He snorted and said, ââAsk him yourself!â
The expressions of the two of them froze, and they instantly had a bad premonition.
They hurriedly went in to ask Xia qingchen, only to find out that Xia qingchen had rejected the suggestion from the Grand Guardian.
Duke Yu sighed,âah!â This was such a good opportunity!
Youâll be able to take this opportunity to step down from the stage!â
âThis is great.
The only gravekeeper who can help us has been rejected,â Zhang Xiaofeng said with a frown.
Xia qingchen had even blocked the last path.
you guys, why are you so worried?
as the saying goes, things will work out when they get there.
Difficulties will be solved in the end.
Xia qingchen spoke.
Duke Yu rolled his eyes.
if thatâs the case, why are we worried about the demons?
weâll cross the bridge when we get there.
Zhang Xiaofeng could not help but criticize him.
young master Xia, you canât help but be anxious.
There are only three hours left until noon.
Do you know how many people are waiting to see you make a fool of yourself?
â
moreover, the messenger of the divine nation has already appeared on the continent.
He might be silently observing the strong people of the continent!
as far as I know, every time, the messenger of the kingdom of God is most enthusiastic about taking away outstanding young people.
If there is no choice, they will only choose the right one from the middle-aged and elderly.
if you speak ruthlessly to the old people this time but canât do anything and become the laughingstock of the world, your prestige will be damaged and you will be despised by the envoys of Scandinavia.
This will seriously affect your future!
Old Yu agreed with her,âthatâs right!â If big brotherâs cultivation base is average, then itâs fine.
Losing face wonât cause any substantial loss, but youâre different.â
