Chapter 940 - 597: Falling Out, Refining Golden Core Level Primordial Blood

"Gongsu Family has the face to come looking for us?"

"We haven’t even demanded an explanation for the death of Junior Brother Zhao Gang and others!"

"Perfect, we can settle the past scores with them!"

...

Upon hearing Gongshu Yu’s words, the disciples of Qiankun Sect all turned pale and became angry.

"Alright, calm down, visitors are guests, let’s not be rude."

Qin Zheng’s expression changed slightly.

But he still first calmed his junior brothers and sisters down.

Currently, they are in the secret realm, the road ahead is uncertain, now is not the time for conflict with the Gongsu Family.

"Let’s go out first and see what the Gongsu Family’s purpose is in coming here."

Qin Zheng opened the Array, leading the junior brothers and sisters out of the valley, and saw that it was indeed Gongshu Yu, waiting outside with the Gongsu Family.

"Brother Qin Zheng, long time no see, how have you been?"

Seeing Qin Zheng and others come out, Gongshu Yu asked with a smile.

As if completely ignoring the unfriendly expressions on the faces of the Qiankun Sect disciples.

"Thanks to your good fortune, everything is fine, except for the tragic deaths of my Junior Brothers Zhao Gang and Wang Ming."

Qin Zheng’s expression was calm, but his words were not.

Upon hearing this, the unfriendly expressions on the Qiankun Sect disciples’ faces worsened.

"Regarding the fall of your two esteemed junior brothers, I am deeply saddened too, but I regret that my limited strength only allowed me to barely protect my family members, unable to assist them at that time, I truly feel ashamed."

Gongshu Yu looked embarrassed, which only fueled the anger of the Qiankun Sect disciples more.

Chu Xiaoqing couldn’t hold back any longer and shouted, "It was clearly you who betrayed us that day, fleeing on your own and disrupting the Array, causing Senior Brother Zhao Gang and others to die, and now you dare to come here with sarcastic remarks, it’s utterly outrageous!"

"Indeed, simply bullying intolerably!"

"Truly deceitful people!"

"Shameless, to think the dignified Gongsu Family among the Thirty-six Upper Families is so despicable!"

For a moment, emotions ran high, and other disciples of Qiankun Sect also began to curse.

Upon hearing these blunt curses, the expressions of the Gongsu Family members changed too.

Initially, they didn’t think much of the Qiankun Sect disciples, but upon hearing their insults, they couldn’t tolerate it.

"Outrageous, daring to insult our Gongsu Family, are you tired of living?"

"We’re here to show you respect, and yet you don’t recognize our goodwill and dare to insult us, it’s simply reckless!"

"Calling us betrayers, clearly it’s you who lacked credibility. When we entered the secret realm, we agreed to explore it together, but you were too weak to withstand the Mutant Beast’s attacks and suffered casualties, now you put the blame on us, it’s utterly nonsensical!"

"Cursing our Gongsu Family, have you considered the consequences, perhaps your Qiankun Sect wants to start a war with us?"

"You..." Listening to the Gongsu Family not only refuse to admit mistakes but also try to shift blame, Chu Xiaoqing became even angrier.

She couldn’t believe that the Gongsu Family could be so shameless.

She immediately felt anger rising and wanted to draw her sword.

"Xiao Jing!"

Qin Zheng’s expression was similarly unpleasant, but he still stopped Chu Xiaoqing’s actions.

Currently, the overall strength of the Gongsu Family is stronger than theirs, and Gongshu Yu’s realm is a notch higher than his.

If they really start fighting here, Qiankun Sect is likely to lose.

Therefore, Qin Zheng tried to suppress his anger and looked at Gongshu Yu.

"Young Master Yu, you didn’t come here just to mock us, did you? Tell me, what is your true purpose?"

"Brother Qin Zheng, you misunderstand me. I indeed came to express apologies." Gongshu Yu said with a smile.

But he saw the cold gaze in Qin Zheng’s eyes.

Slightly taken aback, he decided not to keep up the pretense: "Of course, besides apologies, I also want to discuss with Brother Qin Zheng about our families’ collaboration."

These words ignited another wave of anger among the Qiankun Sect disciples, eager to curse.

But Qin Zheng waved his hand to hold them back.

"Young Master Yu, you must be joking." Qin Zheng said coldly, "Do you think after what happened, our families can still trust each other?"

"This shouldn’t be a problem. If Brother Qin Zheng doesn’t trust us, we can mutually swear the Divine Soul Oath, that way you can be assured, right?"

However, Qin Zheng remained unmoved: "Young Master Yu’s intentions are understood, but due to the deaths of Junior Brother Zhao Gang and others, we are disheartened.

Moreover, Junior Sister Qing Zhu and others are still recovering from their injuries and need rest.

We don’t wish to venture into the secret realm for now, please seek help elsewhere, Young Master Yu."

Upon Qin Zheng’s refusal, Gongshu Yu’s smile slowly faded.

"So, Brother Qin Zheng truly doesn’t want to collaborate anymore?"

"You all should leave."

Gongshu Yu looked quietly at Qin Zheng, seeing his calm expression but firm eyes, and immediately understood his meaning.

"Brother Qin Zheng, have you forgotten how your sect’s Senior Brother instructed us when we came in, urging our families to cooperate and seize opportunities in this secret realm, and now you want to unilaterally break the agreement, have you figured out how to explain it to Senior Qian Lingxiao?"

"This is our Qiankun Sect’s matter, there’s no need for you, Young Master Yu, to worry about it." Qin Zheng said indifferently.

"Fine, very well." Gongshu Yu’s face darkened, "I hope Brother Qin Zheng doesn’t regret today’s choice."

"Please leave."

Gongshu Yu clenched his Jade Fan in his hand, but ultimately chose not to act.
