Chapter 84. King Realm? Let him try!
A moment later, Situ Qing, who had a solitary temperament and a cold face, was led to the ornate meeting hall with a puzzled expression.
If it was in the past, she would naturally be able to enter the meeting hall as soon as she wanted to. However, now, she was already a useless person and a laughing stock of the entire Situ Clan. She had already fallen into the situation of washing clothes for others, so itâs easy to guess what the clan head was thinking nowâ¦
Logically speaking, she had already lost her right to enter the meeting hall. What was this about today?
âSheâs here.â
The clan head glanced at Situ Qing and nodded with a smile.
Unlike the expression of disgust that she had seen before, the current Patriarch Situ had a fervent look in his eyes, a smile on the corner of his mouth. It was as if she, Situ Qing, had once again become that genius that could bring glory to the Situ family.
What happened?
Situ Qingâs heart tightened.
Everything in the Situ Clan was based on benefits. If she couldnât bring benefits to the clan, she might become a chess piece that could be abandoned at any time. How could it attract a warm smile from the clan head?
The people of the Situ Clan all had a âgoodwillâ expression on their faces as they looked at Situ Qing with a smile, especially her two older brothers. But itâs clearly a kind of ridicule in their eyes.
âQingâer, you also know that youâve already become a cripple. itâs a waste of resources for you to stay in my Situ family.â
âFurthermore, after all these years, the resources that the entire clan has invested in you can be said to be vast. You should know that as well.â
Patriarch Situ picked up a cup of Spirit Tea and casually blew a mouthful of hot air, yet his words were icy cold and heartless.
âIâll betroth you to Young Master Zhao of Blissful Palace. From today onwards, youâll no longer belong to my Situ family. Youâll be a member of Young Master Zhaoâs family. Remember to serve Young Master Zhao well. If youâre negligent⦠Heh!â
Situ Qing raised her head in shock when she heard this, and then she looked around. All she saw was smiles filled with âgoodwillâ, and her entire body trembled as she lowered her head. In the end, she revealed a look of despair.
The Blissful Palaceâs reputation was well-known. She had heard about the girls that had fallen into their hands, there was no good result. The Young Master of Blissful Palace was even more infamous and cruel!
Not to mention that her cultivation base had already been crippled now, even if she was at her peak, her death sentence was also destined if Young Master Zhao became interested in her.
The Situ Clan was truly heartless.
âPack up, you will follow Young Master Zhao from today onwardsâ¦â
âNo, I refuse!â
Situ Qingâs expression was expressionless, and her bearing grew even colder. She was just like a cymbidium, stubborn and independent.
Although her voice wasnât loud, her tone was filled with firmness and there was enough in it so that everyone could hear it clearly at least!
âWhat did you say?â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Patriarch Situ narrowed his eyes and glared at Situ Qing with a hint of warning in his eyes.
Buzz!
At the same time, a surge of spiritual energy fluctuation rose from Patriarch Situâs body, and an unconcealed and powerful pressure suddenly surged onto Situ Qingâs body.
âNo!â
Situ Qingâs face was pale. Facing the pressure, she stubbornly raised her head and her eyes coldly stared at the Patriarch Situ.
In the past, she was one of the best geniuses in the entire Rock Devil City. Now that she was reduced to washing clothes for others. What was more was that the family even wanted her to become somebodyâs cauldron?
How was she willing?
âYouâre too arrogant! Are you unwilling?â
Before the patriarch could say anything, an elder of the Situ Clan started laughing.
The corners of his mouth curled into a sneer, and his eyes were filled with inexorability and stared at her.
âDo you think you are still that genius?â
âWake up. Youâre just a cripple right now. If we donât marry you to the Young Master of the Blissful Palace, how could we get back the resources that were spent on your cultivation? You have to know that the Situ family never raises useless people!â
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone nodded in agreement.
Before that, they thought that they would not be able to make up the resources Situ Qing wasted, but no one expected that Young Master Zhao of the Blissful Palace happened to pass through Rock Devil City!
Normally, it would be impossible for the Situ family to have a relationship with the Blissful Palace. But now there was such a good chance, how could they give it up?
As long as the Young Master Zhao was pleased with their service, even if he gave them a few praises, no family would dare to provoke their family in the Rock Devil City for the next ten years.
This was a great opportunity for the Situ family to rise!
What they sacrificed was only a disgrace of the Situ Clan! If this business was completed, the benefits would roll in. It could be said to be a huge profit!
No one would care about Situ Qingâs thoughts!
Not to mention that she was already a cripple, even if she was still that genius, as long as the benefits were enough, the Situ Family would still hand her over!
Patriarch Situ snorted coldly, his tone was icy cold, and he said cruelly, âNo matter whether you are willing or not today, youâll have to agree. Iâve already written a letter to Young Master Zhao. As long as Young Master Zhao comes, youâll obediently go over! Or else, your younger brotherâ¦â
Situ Qingâs expression changed drastically when she heard this.
She used to be a great genius, but her younger brotherâs aptitude was quite ordinary. It wasnât too good, but of course, it wasnât too bad either. Anyway, in Rock Devil City, he could be also called an ordinary genius. Situ Qing and her younger brother Situ Bai had an extremely good relationship.
Situ Qing never expected that this matter would affect Situ Bai.
Her entire body trembled as she looked at Patriarch Situ with a pleading tone.
âOuch, itâs a real beauty. I really like your crying face!â
At this moment, a bewitching voice rang out.
Everyone raised their heads to look at the source. A young man appeared at the gate, dressed in pink robes with a bewitching expression and a wicked smile. He shook a paper fan and slowly walked in.
He looked at Patriarch Situ with a faint smile and then turned his gaze on Situ Qing. In the eyes, a greedy light flashed away fastâ¦â¦.
âPatriarch Situ, this little sister is the third young miss of the Situ family that you intend to give to me, right?â
This young man was just the Young Master of Blissful Palace, Zhao Tai!
At this moment, with Patriarch Situ in the lead, everyone stood up with flattering and respectful expressions on their faces. Situ Feng and Situ Han hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and bent down to invite Young Master Zhao in.
âYes, yes.â
Patriarch Situâs eyes were filled with fervor. He came down from his position and smiled happily. Even his eyes had narrowed.
He was overjoyed!
Young Master Zhao had indeed come!
âOh? But it seems that she is unwilling, it is as if, I, Zhao Tai, am forcing your Situ family into this agreement?â
Zhao Tai raised an eyebrow and looked around. The corner of his mouth contained a cold smile, and his expression became cold too.
âNo, no, we donât dare!â
Patriarch Situâs expression changed and his heart tightened too when he saw Zhao Taiâs cold expression. He fiercely glared at Situ Qing and berated her.
âShe is a member of the Situ family. We have spent endless resources on her these years. Iâm the Patriarch of the Situ family; I have the right to send her to you, Lord Zhao. From today onwards, sheâs no longer a member of the Situ Clan, but your woman, Lord Zhao!â
âBesides, no one doesnât know your name in the Southern Province, Lord Zhao, who would dare to meddle with your things? Since now she is your woman, you can deal with her as you wish, she is here!â
Hearing these words, Zhao Tai immediately smiled with satisfaction and walked to Patriarch Situâs seat. He closed his paper fan and sat down with his legs crossed, his eyes filled with amusement.
âYes, what you said is true.â
He sized Situ Qing up from head to toe. Evil flames flickered in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his lips. Clearly, he was very satisfied.
When everyone from the Situ Clan heard this, they cupped their hands in flattery, and the Patriarch Situ revealed even more joy.
âAs long as you, Lord Zhao is satisfied, itâs enough for us!â
At this moment, Situ Qingâs face was deathly pale, filled with despair. She never expected Patriarch Situ to be so heartless!
It seems that no matter what, Patriarch Situ was already determined to give her to Zhao Tai!
In the entire Rock Devil City, who would dare to meddle with Lord Zhaoâs things? After all, the Blissful Palace has a legendary King Realm force behind it.
At this moment, outside the Situ Clanâs gate, Xuan Yi, the Golden King, and the Blade King, the three of them had watched everything that was happening in the Situ Clan with their Divine sense.
Xuan Yi shook his head and smiled, his eyes were extremely cold.
âWhat a cruel Situ family.â
In order to flatter somebody, they had the heart to send their daughter to a stranger, dealing with this strangerâs wish.
âNo one dares to meddle? That may not be the case. I intend to meddle in todayâs matters!â
Swish!
Xuan Yi stepped forward and appeared in the meeting hall of the Situ Clan.
âSitu Qing, Iâll keep her!â
âIâm here now. Iâll see who dares to touch her!â
Xuan Yiâs expression was icy cold as he brought the two Kings, appearing before the stunned crowdâ¦
