Chapter 140 Should I or You Do It?
Chapter 140 Should I or You Do It?
Upon hearing this, Shan Tianxie nodded slightly, his eyes blazing: "How do you plan to thank me for saving your life?"
I had already thought it through when I left the valley. Although Yue Qing's cooking skills were not as good as Zhu Ting's,
However, the difference wasn't significant; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to forge banknotes so indistinguishable from genuine ones.
Once he's under his command, Yue Qing can try out some of his wildest ideas.
For example, let's see if we can replicate Zhuge Liang's wooden ox and flowing horse in a one-to-one fashion.
And when I was watching TV series back then, there was this Mo family in some martial arts drama, and wow, even wooden birds could fly in the sky, it was so scary!
"this......"
A simple sentence from Shan Tianxie left Yue Qing speechless. Isn't this the style of all young heroes in the martial arts world these days?
I remember when I faked my death and escaped, in the martial arts world, people usually just exchange pleasantries and then talk about how to express their gratitude later.
He didn't realize that the world of martial arts had changed so quickly. Now, saving someone meant immediate payment?
Besides, he was just being polite according to the old custom. He hasn't thought of anything to repay him with yet.
"Ok?"
When Shan Tianxie saw Yue Qing standing there in a daze, he raised an eyebrow. Yue Qing still needs to work on his quick wit. You're penniless right now. Besides your own skills, what else do you have that's worth valuing?
Upon hearing this "hmm," Yue Qing broke out in a cold sweat, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, as if his life was about to end.
At the same time, his mind raced. Could this young master think he was joking?
What can I possibly do to repay this kindness now?! Stop being so stubborn, think of something!
Otherwise, Yue Qing glanced at the corpse lying in the pool of blood and secretly shuddered.
I wonder how painful it was for that guy who just left. If I can't come up with anything else, I'm afraid I'll also perish here.
Seeing Yue Qing's face growing paler and paler, Shan Tianxie sighed inwardly, "I still have to be more direct."
"Yue Qing, besides your appearance, what else do you have that I could possibly want?!"
"people?!"
Yue Qing was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xia'er beside him, his expression instantly becoming extremely complicated.
Good lad! So he's taken a fancy to my daughter, but he and Xia'er have been living in this Cloud Temple for years.
Naturally, he understood his daughter's feelings. His daughter loved Hua Manlou. What should he do now?
Which is more important, the daughter's love or their lives?
In an instant, Yue Qing looked at her daughter, who was crying her eyes out.
With a heavy heart, he realized that his daughter had already sacrificed too much for him, and he couldn't let her sacrifice again. This was the responsibility that an ordinary father should have!
Yue Qing, who thought he had thought things through, looked at Shan Tianxie with a calm expression.
"Young Master, Xia'er has long harbored feelings for Young Master Hua, and I'm afraid she cannot repay your life-saving grace to me with this!"
"I dare to ask you, sir, to change your terms; otherwise, you may take my life back!"
Hearing this, Xia'er scrambled to Yue Qing's side, crying out, "No! Father, now that you've finally escaped, how can I just watch you die?!"
She turned to look at Hua Manlou and said softly, "Young Master Hua, Xia'er will no longer be able to accompany you to admire the flowers. You must take good care of yourself."
"Xia'er, you..."
Just as Hua Manlou was about to say something, Xia'er turned to Shan Tianxie, her face full of resolute determination to feed the demon with her own body.
"Since you saved my father, young master, I will repay you with my life, serving you like a slave! Please spare my father's life."
"Brother Shan, have you really taken a liking to Xia'er?"
Hua Manlou also seemed somewhat incredulous, and then continued, "I remember you two only met for the first time today, this..."
Seeing this scene of fatherly love and filial piety, Shan Tianxie felt speechless. How did they suddenly start acting out a scene of forcing a good woman into prostitution? He was completely stunned.
What on earth is Yue Qing thinking?! How did Xia'er and Hua Manlou even get connected?!
At this moment, the drizzle beside her also whispered something.
"I didn't realize that the young master would like this kind of thing. He really is a hidden talent."
Chaos! Chaos! Everything is in chaos!
"When did I ever say that the person I wanted was Miss Xia'er?!"
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this, and then Yue Qing felt a chill in his heart, his eyes filled with contempt as he looked at Shan Tianxie!
Since it's not his daughter, then it can only be him.
Seriously? He's so old, why does he have to suffer like this? He really doesn't understand any of these young martial arts heroes these days.
However, for the sake of the father and daughter's lives, he had no choice but to compromise himself!
Upon seeing Yue Qing's expression, Shan Tianxie instantly realized that the old man had misunderstood again, and he was immediately furious.
He cursed inwardly, thinking it was only because Zhou Wuse wasn't there, otherwise he would have shown him what it meant to be separated by life and death between two men!
He completely abandoned any other thoughts, controlled his urge to kill, and spoke each word through gritted teeth.
"What I want is for you, Yue Qing, to serve me in the future." Then he thought for a moment and added, "Your skills are what I value most."
"I see! I'm willing!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Qing readily agreed. After all, both of the previous outcomes were too bad, and now that it was just about risking one's life for someone else, it was much easier to accept.
Seeing this scene, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Oh, it was just a misunderstanding. It's alright then.
It seems that only Shan Tianxie was injured at the scene!
Just then, Shan Tianxie's ears twitched as he heard someone rushing towards them at high speed.
"Hmm? Someone's here? Let's go out and see."
After speaking, Shan Tianxie took the lead and walked out of the house, followed closely by the others.
This included Yue Qing and his daughter, but they were surrounded by the disciples of the Blissful Paradise Sect. Given their small size, they were not easily noticed unless one got close and observed them carefully.
Dan Tianxie walked outside, his eyes slightly narrowed as he looked into the distance. After recognizing the person who had come, a smile flashed across his lips.
Because the person who came was none other than the head manager of Datong Money Shop – Boss Qian.
Qian Laoda walked briskly, his belly, accumulated from years of socializing, rose and fell, but it did not hinder his speed in the slightest.
"It seems things are going very smoothly on Lu Xiaofeng's end. Judging from his flustered appearance, it's obvious that things have been exposed."
Dan Tianxie looked at Hua Manlou to the side and asked, "Shall you do it or should I?"
Although he really wanted to vent his anger on someone, he had a good impression of Hua Manlou. He thought he should ask the owner first before beating the dog.
"I'll do it myself."
Hua Manlou pondered for a moment, and ultimately decided to handle it himself.
