Chapter 1104B. The Way Thing Are
Not too far away, beneath a thick demon tree, Cloud Boundlessâ eyes flashed with disappointment. He heaved a sigh. This boy was actually able to endure it. He really had no sense of bravery at all; it was just too disappointing.
How could he not remove the marking he left behind? If he did, he could use that as an excuse to directly capture that boy and tie him down. Once he mixed the two together and the raw rice was cooked, who cared whether he liked it or not?
Tsk tsk, that girl Cloud Mist was good at everything, but she was still a woman. She was far too stingy in her actions and couldnât cleanly finish what she started.
Hum hum, this involves the future of the old Kingâs lineage, so who cared if he was shameless? After firming his resolve, Cloud Boundless lightly humphed and walked away.
There was no need to worry. Since he decided not to care about face anymore, Qin Yu was no different from a dish laid out in front of him. He couldnât run away even if he had long legs!
Cloud Boundless certainly wasnât bored enough to go strolling through the gardens every day. Those old bastards from the Clan Elder Assembly had been tossed around by him several times and their attitudes had relaxed. Today, he would put some more pressure on them and take what benefits he could before considering this matter.
Within the carriage, in front of the two demon maids, Qin Yu still managed to maintain a calm façade. But once he entered the inn his face thoroughly darkened.
His first sentence left Black Astral feeling fearful and apprehensive. âIf you use all your strength, can you defeat that old freak Cloud Boundless?â
Feeling fear and apprehension was one thing, but since Qin Yu asked him this question, he should give a reply. Black Astral earnestly thought about it and honestly said, âI shouldnât be able to.â
Qin Yu rubbed his eyebrows, âYou have reached the peak of the Demon Commander boundary and have even touched the King level threshold, yet you still arenât his match?â
âSir, touching the threshold of the King level is only a rough idea. If I had to describe it, while I might have grabbed onto the threshold with my hand, Cloud Boundless has already moved half his body in. He might just have half a foot left remaining outside.â
Black Astral had a helpless expression. With his current boundary, he could barely be considered as being in the same boundary as Cloud Boundless. It was because of this that he could clearly feel how great the disparity was between the two of them.
And there was another point Black Astral didnât speak of. As the Clan Elder of the old Kingâs lineage, it was impossible for Cloud Boundless not to have some other cards in hand.
For him to appear at this time in Adversity Peak City and also manage the business of the old Kingâs lineage, that was enough to indicate how high his status was.
If someone said he had no cards in hand? Hoho, that was simply impossible!
Of course, even if he said this he still had to express his opinion. As a subordinate, wasnât one of his duties sharing in the sorrow of his master in critical times?
He might not be able to do this, but he still had to appear as if he tried!
Black Astral took a deep breath and said, âSir, if I must, I can place my life on the line and delay Cloud Boundless for a few moments!â
Old Fox glanced over. This old black dogâs brain seemed to have developed a second time recently. He was able to speak such eloquent words.
He had already seen that even though Qin Yu asked this question and his tone was unwilling, he actually wasnât prepared to fight with the old Kingâs lineage. Otherwise, he wouldnât have asked this question so directly. He was likely just venting the discontent in his heart.
Sure enough, Qin Yu simply shook his head and didnât say anything else.
Black Astral relaxed inwardly. It was wonderful to live, especially since he had already seen the possibility of breaking into the King boundary.
Please donât fight! Please donât fight!
Old Fox hesitated for a moment before saying, âSir, may I ask what happened?â He was curious about what relationship the old Kingâs lineage had with Qin Yu. Both sides had been harmonious before, so how had things taken such a drastic turn after just one trip?
Even though he had seen relations deteriorate before, he had never seen them deteriorate at such speed!
Qin Yu waved his hand in annoyance. It wasnât possible for him to tell them. Was he supposed to tell them that he was being forced into a marriage? These two old demons might not say anything about it, but they would surely laugh in their hearts. Moreover, they would likely follow their intuition and try to persuade him to agree. After all, no matter how they looked at it, Qin Yu wouldnât be suffering a loss here.
Whatâs more, this matter involved far too many variables. If even a little of it was leaked out, that would be troublesome.
He could only suppress it in his heart!
âIâm going to rest. If thereâs nothing then donât disturb me!â He stood up and walked away, nodding at Mian Ya who was serving tea.
She hurriedly stepped to the side. It was only when Qin Yu left that she looked up and revealed a sorrowful expression.
What happened during this period of time? Qin Yu looked annoyed and angry. She had no chance to display all her skills.
If things continued like this, that would be troublesome!
As Mian Ya felt gloomy and hopeless about her future, Qin Yu was pacing back and forth in his room, all sorts of thoughts flashing in his mind before being erased.
The old Kingâs lineage was about to be finished, and right now, Qin Yu was the treasure that could save them all. It was easy if he wanted them to give up on him. He could simply look for another life-saving treasure and do an exchange with them.
This sounded simple, but accomplishing it was impossibly difficult. Otherwise, the old Kingâs lineage wouldnât have been forced to this step.
Qin Yu slapped his forehead. Donât worry. Donât worry. Break this matter down and carefully deliberate over it.
The reason Cloud Boundless wanted to force a woman onto him was because he wanted to give a future hope to the old Kingâs lineage. Of course, there was the possibility they wanted two children, three children, or to just use him as a breeding horse, the more the merrier.
The reason he did this was because of Cloud Billow. A woman couldnât become the new King. If it was just this then it was fine. Even if they lost the fight for the new Kingâs throne, while the old Kingâs lineage might lose their hands and feet, they wouldnât be completely finished off.
The key was that there was a problem with Cloud Billow herself. She would soon be unable to continue her act.
Qin Yuâs eyes brightened. If he helped Cloud Billow solve the problem in her body, would that change Cloud Boundlessâ mind?
After a few moments thinking about this idea, he eventually sighed and revealed a helpless look.
He was afraid this wouldnât work.
Cloud Billowâs status was already suspected. She could avoid it once, but not for a lifetime. After all, there was no reason to guard against thieves all day long.
Since there was a better choice that could easily dispose of the hidden dangers to the old Kingâs lineage, Cloud Boundless wouldnât give up.
UnlessâŠhe gave him a better option that couldnât be refused at all.
Qin Yuâs face was dark and uncertain. He continued to think of various ideas, but none of them satisfied him.
At a certain moment, Qin Yu felt as if he had caught onto something. Yet as if it were a fog, he couldnât come up with anything.
Just what was it?
The feeling was that this idea was right beside him, but no matter how hard he tried he couldnât catch it.
Cloud BillowâŠforced marriageâŠbloodlineâŠ
A lightning bolt tore through the thick layer of fog. Qin Yu came to a realization as his eyes flashed with a sharp light.
Thatâs right, it was the bloodline!
No matter what situation the old Kingâs lineage was facing, the reason Cloud Boundless thrust Cloud Billow at him was because they wanted to âborrow his seedâ.
And the premise of âborrowing his seedâ was based on Qin Yuâs bloodline. It satisfied their requirements of producing descendants for the old Kingâs lineage that were sufficiently outstanding.
Even if they lost the qualifications to struggle for the new Kingâs throne, these outstanding descendants would guarantee that the old Kingâs lineage wouldnât wane and wither away.
In the far off future, they might even have a chance of staging a comeback.
After all, while the King was King, that didnât mean they wouldnât die. Otherwise, the situation now where various factions vied for the throne wouldnât have appeared.
Then, what about directly giving them the throne? Or to be more exact, could Qin Yu replace Cloud Billow to be the new successor of the old Kingâs lineage?
The heart of the abyss beat in his chest. He licked his lips, feeling parched over how bold his idea was.
If he succeeded, the harvests would be astonishing. He could openly and honestly enter the Nightmare Ancestral Land and unravel all the riddles.
And even if this idea seemed bold, it wasnât impossible. Because in truth, Qin Yuâs abyssal bloodline came from the vanished previous Nightmare King.
In terms of bloodline alone, even a direct descendant like Cloud Billow couldnât compare to him in terms of purityâŠor to be more exact, there was just no way to compare them.
A bloodline obtained by inheritance and one directly seized werenât on the same level to begin with. It could be said that what flowed through Qin Yuâs body was the bloodline of the last Nightmare King!
But even so, how could the old Kingâs lineage accept Qin Yuâs proposition? This wasnât a simple matter.
With Cloud Boundlessâ crafty and sinister disposition, once he learned of this his first thought would surely be to plunder Qin Yuâs bloodline.
Thatâs right, that would definitely happen!
So he couldnât allow that old freak to know about this first. He could only begin from Cloud Billow!
After all, there were two people in Adversity Peak City who had absolute influence over the old Kingâs lineage.
Of course, even if there were several more, the only one Qin Yu could contact was that woman.
He had saved Cloud Billow twice. And since she took the initiative to propose marriage to him, she must be satisfied with him.
Cough cough, this wasnât a boast. Rather, anyone with some intelligence could figure it out. Or Cloud Billow would never have tried talking to him and would have allowed Cloud Boundless to do it all instead. If that old freak really had been the one to make a move at the start, then Qin Yu wouldnât have been able to delay for time and he wouldnât be as relaxed as he was now.
In shortâŠhe had to contact her. Even if he wasnât successful, the situation wouldnât spin out of control and thoroughly collapse.
In truth, while this was risky, the degree of danger was within Qin Yuâs withstanding limits.
Have you heard about the titan true body? If that wasnât enough, he could also summon the Demon Dragon Elder. Preserving his life was no problem.
There might be a better plan, but there wasnât enough time for him to think of one.
Cloud Boundless might have been brightly smiling, but judging from his actions he was bound to be extremely anxious.
One dayâŠhe had one day at most. If he didnât respond, that old freak would make his move.
He had to hurry!
Qin Yu took a deep breath and suppressed all these tumbling thoughts. After considering things a few more times, he pushed open the door and walked out.
He had to look for Cloud Billow!
