C536 It Was That Simple

Du Qi looked over and saw a man in black standing at the stairs leading to the second floor. He was staring at Bi Yulian angrily. Bi Yulian didn't dare to say anything after hearing what the man said. She could only glare at him angrily, but she was afraid that the man would find out. She only glared at him and immediately looked away. She looked at Du Qi with pity and pity. She said softly, "Big Sister has other matters to attend to. Young Master, take care of yourself." After saying that, Bi Yulian hurriedly went to the stairs.

Seeing Du Qi looking at him, the man squeezed out a smile and said politely, "Myriad Grade Hall's Xia Jianren is here to welcome you. Please follow me, Young Master!" When Du Qi came close, Xia Jianren turned around and led the way.

Du Qi was slightly startled when he heard that. He did not expect that the one who kidnapped Chang Xiaowu this time was actually someone from Myriad Grade Hall. He couldn't help but feel angry in his heart. Without saying a word, he silently followed Xia Jianren and turned into the stairs. After passing through the corridor and arriving at the backyard, Du Qi saw flowers and trees in the courtyard. The green was abundant. When he was in the middle of it, he suddenly felt energetic and the trees were hidden. He saw countless independent courtyards.

Following behind Xia Jianren, Du Qi had long seen two men in black standing proudly in front of a small courtyard. A man in purple, about forty years old, was looking at them from between the two men. He saw them. The man in purple quickly tidied his clothes and pretended as if nothing had happened. He turned around and looked away. Xia Jianren hurriedly went over and said respectfully, "Reporting to Elder Hong, Young Master Du has arrived!"

Only then did Elder Hong turn his head around and size Du Qi up and down. He gave a fake smile as he bowed and said, "Benefactor Young Master Du is busy with matters. Today you have graced us with your presence. It is an honor for everyone in my hall. Quickly come in!"

Du Qi returned the salute and said, "Elder Hong is too polite, please!"

At this moment, there were already three people sitting in the living room. When they saw Du Qi come in, the three of them were still sitting there without moving, and their expressions were arrogant. Du Qi saw that all three of them were over fifty years old, and his eyes sparkled as he looked at them. Their temples were raised high. Their martial arts and cultivation were clearly not weak. They did have the right to be proud. The one sitting in the upper seat was a Daoist who looked like a sage. The second one was dressed like a merchant. His body was slightly thin and weak, while the other person was dressed like an old farmer. His body appeared to be extremely tough.

Elder Hong invited Du Qi to sit in the guest's seat and introduced him one by one, "This is our clan's Guardian Daoist Yun Xiao. These two are our clan's guest chamberlains, Fang Jian, Hero Fang, and Yuan Shiling, Hero Yuan. Please advise us, Young Master."

Glancing coldly at the three people, Du Qi said proudly, "No problem, no problem. Elder Hong, sit down and talk!"

Elder Hong obeyed and sat down under the three people, but he looked at the three people and said nothing more. Daoist Yunxiao looked sideways at Du Qi, a mocking smile hanging from the corner of his eyes. He casually said, "It's alright for a little kid to be arrogant and rude, but if this continues, he will suffer a great loss in the future."

Du Qi was too lazy to talk with them, so he smiled and said, "Daoist Priest called me here, and you didn't just call me here to teach me a lesson, right?"

Daoist Cloudy Heavens said again, "The little child is not only arrogant and rude, but also has quite a temper. He doesn't have the slightest intention of respecting the elders. Sigh! No wonder the world of Jianghu is deteriorating day by day. What should we do if this continues? Sigh!"

Du Qi smiled and said," Old people with morals should think of themselves as Jingzhi. Those people who only know how to take advantage of their old age and look down on their old age, those without morals, what need is there to respect them? Elder Daoist, you don't have to stare at me, and you don't have to take a seat in front of me. Ha!"

The anger on Daoist Cloudy Heavens' face disappeared in a flash. He forced out a smile and said happily, "A little child really knows how to speak. It suits this poor Taoist's taste very much. It seems that our cooperation will be very pleasant. Little Hong, you tell him!"

Elder Hong hurriedly said respectfully, "Yes, Daoist!" Then, he turned to Du Qi and said, "Young Master is a young hero and we admire him greatly. This time, we have no intention of inviting Young Master here. We just want to provide a wider stage for Young Master so that he can show off his skills. Mighty the Jianghu."

Du Qi smiled and said, "I am young and ignorant, I don't understand what you mean. Elder Hong, please speak clearly!"

Elder Hong smiled and said, "It is very simple. As long as young master collaborates with us, you can do whatever you want!"

Du Qi smiled and said, "I wonder how we should cooperate?"

Elder Hong smiled and said, "This is even simpler. As long as Young Master obeys Daoist Yunxiao's orders from now on, he can act according to Daoist Yunxiao's wishes."

Du Qi said in surprise, "It's that simple?"

Elder Hong smiled and said, "It's that simple!"

Du Qi said, "Elder Hong is very generous. I should have given my all to agree, but I'm used to being idle..."

Elder Hong hastily interrupted Du Qi's words and said with a smile, "Young Master need not be in a hurry to reject our good intentions. Please take a look at Sect Master Chang first. What do you think?" Without waiting for Du Qi's reaction, Elder Hong continued to shout loudly, "Open the door!"

Following Elder Hong's call, the door that was facing Du Qi suddenly opened. Chang Xiaowu, who was covered in wounds, collapsed in a chair. Two men in black carried the chairs out and placed them in the middle of the living room. Du Qi resisted the urge to rush to Chang Xiaowu's side, but he still asked anxiously, "Brother Chang, how are you?"

Elder Hong smiled and said, "Young Master, don't worry. Sect Master Chang is fine now. We found out that Sect Master Chang was seriously injured, so we asked the famous doctor to treat him. Because we were worried that someone would disturb us, we found this quiet place. We didn't ask Sect Master Chang and the young master for permission beforehand, so there might be some misunderstandings. Young Master, please understand."

Chang Xiaowu, who seemed to be in a deep sleep, opened his eyes with great effort when he heard Du Qi's call. When he suddenly saw Du Qi in front of him, his eyes lit up and he said weakly, "Why is Young Master here?"

Before Du Qi could reply, Elder Hong said first, "Young Master Du came specially to pick up Sect Master Chang and bring him home."

Chang Xiaowu perked up when he heard this. He suddenly shouted, "Young master, leave quickly. They have no good intentions!"

Elder Hong seemed to be a little displeased and said, "What Sect Master Chang said is wrong. In the future, we will be partners with Young Master Du. Naturally, we will be respectful to Sect Master Chang and will not dare to offend him again."

Chang Xiaowu said with doubt, "Young Master is willing to submit to them for a mere Chang Xiaowu?"

Du Qi glanced at the somewhat embarrassed Daoist Yunxiao, Elder Hong and the others and said with a smile, "Brother Chang has always been a hero in my heart. For the sake of Brother Chang, I can do anything!"

Chang Xiaowu's eyes suddenly widened, and he shouted, "Young master prioritizes righteousness. Why are you so indecisive today? Hurry up and leave this place, don't let them take advantage of you!"

Du Qi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Big Brother Chang, I know what to do."

Staring at Du Qi, Chang Xiaowu angrily shouted, "What do you know what I'm doing? You think you are smart, but you are so stupid. If you still recognize me as your big brother, just listen to me. Leave this place as soon as possible, don't have any connections with these treacherous people! Otherwise, I, Chang Xiaowu, won't have a friend like you! "
