C18 To See the Patriarch!

As the leader of the clan, Qing Zhi Jing's body naturally carried the dignity of a person in power. This dignity seemed to be innately born, causing others to feel fear towards him.

However, facing the two youngsters in the meeting hall, he had a kind and gentle smile on his face, and his imposing aura that made people not feel angry disappeared without a trace.

"Oh, so you're saying this is thanks to big brother Haotian blocking your path and helping you drive away that Fierce Beast?" Qing Zhi asked with a smile as he tilted his head.

"That's right! You didn't know I was scared to death! That fierce beast is this big! " While talking, Yu Meng gestured with her hands, as if she was trying to let her father, who was high up in the hall, see more clearly, "When I saw that monster, I was so scared that I couldn't move. Thank you, big brother Haotian, for dragging me back. Otherwise, father wouldn't be able to see my daughter!"

At the climax of her words, Yu Meng was unable to get rid of the laughing girl's personality. She hugged the clear scenery of the land and swung her arms back and forth, actually acting coquettish.

"Sure enough, little girls are just little girls. Acting like a spoiled child is their nature!" Thinking like this, but Haotian still couldn't stop his cheeks from turning red.

Although Haotian had always considered himself to be thick-skinned, bragging to Yu Meng from time to time that he was a righteous man, but even so, Yu Meng complimenting him in front of Qing Ji still made him feel very embarrassed.

Actually. At that time, the vicious beast was already heavily injured and didn't have much lethality. Furthermore, the situation back then wasn't as dangerous as Yu Meng had described. It was just that after he had advanced to the Perception Realm, he was more sensitive to danger in his surroundings compared to Yu Meng, so he had warned her beforehand. Moreover, he had only released the strength of a Sensory Perception Realm cultivator to scare the monster away. It hadn't taken much effort at all.

But now, with Yu Meng exaggerating, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he still felt a little embarrassed.

"Hur Hur Hur!" Naturally, he would not investigate just how big the vicious beast was in such a clear environment. It was very dangerous back then.

Now that his daughter had returned safely, he felt at peace.

Therefore, he didn't interrupt now. He just quietly listened and smiled, seriously sharing his daughter's adventure.

Haotian, on the other hand, didn't interrupt. He just stood to the side, watching silently.

As the great war between the tribes was imminent, all the members of the Xiangyun tribe felt an inexplicable pressure. As the leader of the clan, Qing Zhi Jing was the one bearing the brunt of the pressure! After all, the Naga Tribe had a population of 1.4 million, which was known as one of the twelve super tribes of the Divine Continent. Although the Xiangyun Tribe had Dragon Warriors and was known as the strongest tribe, that was only a thousand years ago. The Xiangyun Tribe had already begun to decline, and no longer had its former glory.

With a population of five hundred thousand members of the auspicious Cloud Tribe, could they compete against the snakeman tribe, which had a population of 1.4 million?

This was no different from striking an egg against a rock. He was courting his own death!

Thinking of this, Qing Zhi Jing sighed. He looked at his daughter who didn't seem to notice that he was in a bad mood. He was still talking about how he wished that the story wouldn't end so his daughter could continue to tell it.

Finally, the story came to an end.

Qing Zhi Jing knitted his brows, his hands massaging his temples that were aching. Exhaustion was brimming on his face.

Seeing her father so tired, Yu Meng couldn't help but feel her heart ache.

In fact, she also knew that her father must have been under a lot of pressure during her absence.

Outside, she was the daughter of the tribe leader and one of the few doctors in the tribe.

However, in front of his father, he would always be a obedient daughter, bearing the burden of saving his father's life!

This was the reason why she had exaggerated her actions of searching for medicinal herbs in the back of the mountain.

"Alright, Su'er, you go out first. I have something I want to say to Haotian!" Although Qing Zhi Jing was the head of the family, he not only cared for his children, but was also very honest with them.

At this moment, he didn't find any other reason to let Yu Meng go. Instead, he sent out a "expel the guest".

"Yes sir!" Yu Meng nodded obediently at her father, bowed slightly, and then left. However, she didn't forget to make a face at Haotian before she left.

Looking at the ghost face, Haotian couldn't help but bitterly smile.

"I can tell that Yu Meng likes you. She likes you a lot!" When Yu Meng's figure completely disappeared from their sight, Qing Zhi Jing suddenly spoke up.

These words were so sudden that it caused Haotian to be stunned on the spot, unsure of how to respond.

Seeing Haotian's dazed look, Qing Zhi Jing couldn't help but smile and say, "Don't think too much about it. Yu Meng is not only good-looking, but she also has a kind heart. With her status as a doctor, she is very popular in the tribe. There are a lot of people here to talk to you about matchmaking. "

Looking at the serious expression on Qing Zhi Jing's face and hearing his sincere words, Haotian, who had recovered from his shock, found it hilarious: a family, actually speaking in the same tone!

Of course, he understood that he could only think about it in his heart. He couldn't say it out loud.

Qing Zhi didn't know how to read the thoughts, so he naturally didn't understand what Haotian was thinking. He continued, "But I didn't agree to any marriage. Firstly, I feel that Yu Meng is still young and the time isn't right yet. The second was that Yu Meng was the daughter of the clan leader! With this identity, it was hard to tell if it was his good luck or bad luck. Since she was the daughter of the clan leader, she had to shoulder some of the responsibilities, such as the tribe's development and stability! So my plan has always been to be a marriage alliance! "By forming an in-laws with other powerful tribes, we gain the stability and prosperity of the tribe."

Hearing Qing Zhi Jing's words, Haotian finally understood what he was going to say. He couldn't help but feel an unexplainable anger. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Qing Zhi Jing gently wave his hand, stopping him.

"I know that you will definitely feel angry. Yu Meng had also expressed her displeasure towards me before, even though I …" "I used to hate myself from the bottom of my heart."

Ling Haotian stared blankly at the middle-aged man in front of him, when he suddenly realized that the silver white color on his hair, which was long worn out by time, was actually so obvious at this moment. He didn't understand why Qing Jing would leave him alone when the great battle between the two tribes was about to happen, nor did he understand why he said those words to him.

However, Qing Zhi Jing's honesty was beyond his expectations.

Ignoring Haotian's stunned expression, Qing Zhi Jing lightly dripped once, then continued: "Even if I hate myself, what can I do? I am the patriarch of the auspicious Cloud Tribe, and Yu Meng's father is next. For the benefit of the tribe, we sometimes have to make certain sacrifices, and these sacrifices are worth it, right? "

Facing Qing Zhi Jing's questioning tone, Ling Hao didn't know how to respond.

Being born in a royal family, although he was happy, it was actually a very helpless matter. Many things could not be decided by oneself.

Thus, no matter how much Ling Haotian tried to refute Qing Ji's words, he couldn't refute them. This was because even though the old man's words were a bit selfish, he was still a victim, so he once again fell silent. He didn't know how to reply.

After all, he had heard of the most beautiful scene in the world, so he still felt somewhat uncomfortable in his heart.

This uncomfortable feeling perfectly explained that at certain moments, one's senses were indeed stronger than reason.

"Haha …" Qing Zhi Jing scratched his head and smiled, then continued: "When I first heard of my thoughts, Yu Meng was also hurt and resisted. However, in the end, I was still unable to change my righteousness, and was forced to accept my arrangement with the peace of the tribe. However, it was also from that time onwards that the naive and lively young lady became a different person. She became a little silent and even though her face was full of smiles like before, I know that she is different. She is indeed different. "

Qing Zhi Jing frowned as he spoke. He seemed to be worried that Haotian wouldn't understand as he kept repeating the word 'different' repeatedly.

However, Ling Haotian was a Transcender. How could he not understand the bitterness behind these two lifetimes?

However, because he understood too much and understood too much, he felt that it was a bit too cliché.

"I am the leader of the clan, and then I am the father." "I've always thought that way, and I've always asked for it. Before the invasion of the Naga Tribe, I had even seriously considered Yu Meng's target for marriage and started preparing a dowry for marriage. However, when the snakeman tribe attacked us and the tribe was on the brink of destruction, I suddenly understood that I owed her too much. My seven feet body has already been promised to the tribe, but to my daughter, I have not done my duty! "

Qing Zhi Jing shook his head and sighed. His face seemed to have aged a lot, but he didn't mind as he smiled and turned to look at Ling Hao. Maybe I'm really old, but I've actually become so wordy. After saying so much, you must be wondering why I kept you here alone. Actually, it's not for anything else, but because I want to ask you for a favor! "

The tone suddenly became serious.

At that moment, the atmosphere in the hall became even heavier due to Qing Zhi's tone.

Facing this change in the scenery, Ling Haotian couldn't help but bitterly smile and say: "Patriarch Xiangyun is too polite, if there's anything you need to tell him, then it's fine. I'm not an ungrateful person, if it wasn't for you saving me and taking me in as an outsider, I might have already died in that mountain corner."

"That's what I want to say!" Qing Zhi Jing's expression didn't change because of Ling Hao's relaxed voice. Instead, he became even more solemn, "You are not from the Xiangyun tribe, so at this moment, you don't have any reason to stay in the Xiangyun tribe. Young man, I advise you to cherish your life and leave the Xiangyun tribe! Don't feel that you owe us. Back then, saving you didn't expend too much effort. So, it's better for you to leave. Leave the auspicious cloud, the further you go, the better! " Qing Ji calmly looked at Ling Haotian and said indifferently, "No one will blame you …"

"I'm not a person who forgets his roots!" Before Qing Jing finished his sentence, Ling Haotian had already repeated what he had said before.

The tone of his words was so bland, as if he was not in any mood at all.

"He's not someone who's afraid of death!" Ling Haotian suddenly said with a serious tone, "I don't know what you mean by those words. But I respect you as the clan leader, so I won't bother with you. But I think I must let you know my attitude. I swear to live and die with Mascot! "

The long tail revealed Ling Haotian's true emotions. He seemed to not be as calm as he appeared on the surface.

Yes, it didn't matter if it was the world of his previous life or the current Xiangyun tribe.

Fleeing before the battle was the equivalent of the world, and it was something that people despised. This was an insult to his character, and this was the reason why Haotian was so angry. Even though he knew that the best view was for his own sake, it wasn't the reason for him to insult himself.

Hearing Ling Haotian say this, a trace of hidden suspicion flashed through Qing Zhi's eyes.

Ling Haotian didn't notice that the view was covered very well.

"Good!" In this day and age, men are like you, hot-blooded and unafraid of death! " At this moment, Qing Zhi Jing's face was filled with emotion, as if he was moved by Ling Haotian's words of "vow to live and die together with Mascot."

"Actually, what I just said was just to test you." "But not all of that was a lie," she said softly. I have a request for you. It was Yu Meng. I want to ask you to leave the auspicious cloud with Yu Meng! "

Ling Haotian's anger was extinguished in an instant. He looked at the beautiful scenery with a face full of shock.

"I told you earlier, I owe Yu Meng too much! "In this moment of life and death, I finally understand. In my entire life, it could be said that I've been working hard for the Mascot Cloud Tribe. Therefore, I want to be a father and fulfill my responsibilities as a father." Qing Zhi Jing waved his hand and stopped Haotian from speaking. He continued, "I can tell that child Yu Meng likes you. She smiles very happily with you. So, I wanted her to continue to be happy, so I asked you to help me take Yu Meng away from this battle. "Also, you really can't be considered a member of the Xiangyun Tribe. There's no need for you to die with the Tribe!"

At this moment, the expression on Qing Zhi Jing's face was very sincere!

He was sincere to the point that Ling Haotian was no longer embarrassed to be angry. This was because he felt that the middle-aged man in front of him was truly thinking for his own sake, thinking for his daughter's sake.

"You know that it's impossible for her to leave you, the Xiangyun Tribe, so why do you need to make things so difficult for me?" Ling Haotian said with a wry smile.

"Yu Meng, she …" Just as Qing Zhi was about to say something, a tall and sturdy man rushed into the meeting hall.

From his attire, Ling Haotian could easily identify that he was a soldier!

"Report!" A prolonged stutter came from his mouth.

From his pale face, it seemed that something big had happened!

Sure enough, this soldier's words made Qing Zhi and Ling Haotian not in the mood to continue speaking!

"Snake-People Tribe, get ready to attack Mascot!"
