The three figures appeared very suddenly. In the Han Family's territory, the air seemed to have stopped and there was no sound.
Han Long's eyes narrowed. When his gaze stopped on the elder who had spoken, his frail body shivered. His face, which had always been calm, had a hint of timidity. "Perfect Domain Realm?"
Qin Shi was also shocked when he saw this scene from the ruins. The elder gave him a feeling that he could look down on the three old dogs of the Chaotic Realm, or even surpass them.
Most importantly, the elder had called Xiao Mi Cai 'Empress'?
"These people are from the Rainbow Auspicious Cloud Snake tribe?"
Qin Shi thought to himself. Then, he couldn't help but exclaim in shock, "Does that mean that Xiao Mi Cai is the next leader of the Rainbow Auspicious Cloud Snake tribe?"
Although he had heard from the Blood Shaman that Xiao Mi Cai's bloodline was very pure, and it was very likely that she was of the royal bloodline of the Rainbow Auspicious Cloud Snake tribe, he hadn't expected her to be a noble queen.
However, if one were to say that Qin Shi was astonished, then the Han Clan was terrified. The strength of these three people had already surpassed their understanding. Even Han Long was nothing in front of them.
"May I know who the three of you are? Can you tell me your names?
Why are you interfering with the Han Family's matters? "Han Long's face was ashen as he gritted his teeth.
The old man who spoke earlier turned around and looked at Han Long disdainfully. He said coldly, "Haha, a fellow who has lived for several hundred years actually killed a teenage girl and a twenty-something year old junior. Aren't you afraid of being shamed by the world if word of this gets out?"
"This is my Han Family's matter!"
"Then, you injured my Empress. Is that also my family's matter?
Can I also take your life? "
Boom!
Suddenly, the elder's aura changed drastically. Just the airflow from his words was enough to suppress Han Long to the ground. He couldn't move at all.
"Third Brother!
Stop! "
Qin Shi thought that if it wasn't for the other old man stopping him, that old man would have probably used the Qi flow to shatter Han Long. However, the old man who suddenly spoke clearly had an extremely high status among the three. With an indifferent voice, the old man who attacked immediately calmed down and stopped.
After that, the old man in the lead turned to Little Mi Cai and said respectfully, "Empress, we have come late. However, there will be no more problems from now on. Please return to the clan with us."
"That's right. Empress, we are the subordinates of Leader Cai Hao. Now that Leader has been harmed by a scoundrel, our tribe is facing both internal and external threats. We are willing to invite you to return to the tribe and take charge of the overall situation," the other person said at the same time.
Looking at the three of them, Xiao Mi Cai's face was also in a daze. One could tell that she was also at a loss.
"Why? Why is it me?" Xiaomi Cai trembled.
"The blood of Leader Cai Hao flows in your body. I'm afraid that no one is more suitable than you in the tribe." The old man in the lead said.
Qin Shi was shocked. He then narrowed his eyes and recalled the strange reaction that Little Mi Cai showed towards the Rainbow Auspicious Cloud Snake Leader's blood essence during the memorial auction. He couldn't help but say, "So, that blood essence is Little Mi Cai's real father's blood essence?
No wonder … she was so emotional. "
Hearing that, Xiao Mi Cai seemed to have expected it. However, she clenched her fists with unwillingness and her beautiful eyes stopped on Qin Shi.
Feeling her reluctant gaze, Qin Shi raised his head and nodded at her.
"Let's go back."
"Daddy …!" Xiao Mi Cai shouted as tears flowed down her face.
"Empress, we don't have much time left. Even if it's us, we won't be able to maintain the connection from the Beast World to the Human World for long. Let's go." The old man said.
After struggling for a while, Xiao Mi Cai's gaze turned resolute, as though she had seen through everything. She sighed helplessly and after that, her aura suddenly changed. Her colorful hair fluttered in the wind and her delicate face seemed to be covered with smoky makeup. The blood in her body flowed and she no longer looked as innocent as before. Instead, she looked extremely domineering, like the queen of a clan. She spoke to the three old men, even her voice had changed, "What are the names of the three of you?"
The three old men were stunned and quickly replied.
"Replying to the empress, you are Cai Qing, Cai Yan, and Cai Yu!"
"Cai Qing?"
Xiao Mi Cai repeated. Her beautiful eyes turned and stared at Han Long. She pointed at him and said, "I order you to kill him."
"What?"
The Han Family's disciples were shocked. Han Long's old face twitched a few times and he subconsciously retreated a hundred meters.
"Empress, this …!"
"What?
My words don't work?
You better get someone else to be the empress, "Xiao Mi Cai said coldly.
Cai Qing and the other two were obviously put in a difficult position. After a while, the three of them looked at each other and couldn't come to a conclusion. Cai Qing then said, "Replying to the empress, it's not that I don't want to agree … It's just that I can't do it."
"Can't do it?"
Xiao Mi Cai's expression changed and was full of mockery. "A Perfected Domain Realm expert is telling me that you can't kill a Phenomenal Domain Realm expert?
Do you think I'm stupid? "
"I don't dare to!"
Cai Qing lowered her head and said helplessly, "Replying to the empress, I can't do it. It's not that I can't kill him, but … but …!"
"But what?" Xiao Mi Cai asked.
"The Beast World has a rule that no one from the Beast World is allowed to interfere with the affairs of the Human World. Otherwise, once the other races know about it, the Rainbow Auspicious Cloud Snake Race will become the target of everyone. Of course, many races have done it before and no one pursued it. However … the situation of my race is different now. There are cracks in my race and there are countless other races eyeing on us. If we interfere too much in the Human World at this critical juncture, it will definitely be used against us and our race will be in grave danger."
"I don't care. Even if it's the lives of my entire race, it's not enough to save my father's life!
Do it!
Kill him! "Xiao Mi Cai said angrily.
Han Long squinted his eyes and his hatred was clear.
Qin Shi also frowned.
"This …!"
Cai Qing gritted his teeth but didn't move. Instead, he cupped his fists towards Xiao Mi Cai and said, "Empress, you can't treat the lives of my race as a joke. I beg the empress to take back her order."
"I beg the empress to take back her order!" Cai Yan and Cai Yu said at the same time.
"You guys!"
Xiao Mi Cai's charming face turned extremely cold and she suddenly laughed hysterically, "Haha, hahaha, good good good. This is the empress you guys are talking about?
The so-called only obeying me?
Bullshit!
That's my father. Are you guys asking me to watch my father get killed? "
"Empress …!"
"Enough!" Xiao Mi Cai raised her sleeves and said to the three of them, "You guys aren't going to make a move?
Then I will do it myself. If you want my father's life, I will have to die first! "
That arrogance was very similar to the original Xiao Mi Cai. But even so, she still gave off a coldness that pushed people a thousand miles away.
As Xiao Mi Cai finished speaking, a layer of colorful clouds brushed past and she closed in on Han Long.
At this moment, Cai Qing and the other two became anxious. Cai Qing stretched out his withered hand and didn't care about the difference in seniority as he used his qi field to suppress Xiao Mi Cai.
"What are you guys doing?" Xiao Mi Cai roared angrily.
"Empress, you can't do this!"
"Am I the empress or are you the empress?
How dare you order me? "
Xiao Mi Cai's qi field shot out in all directions and forced the three of them to retreat. That wasn't from the suppression of spirit power but the suppression of the purity of her bloodline.
"Xiao Mi Cai!"
However, an indifferent voice suddenly broke the argument. Xiao Mi Cai lowered her head and saw that Qin Shi had already stood up from the ruins.
His calves were still trembling and he had no choice but to use one hand to support himself on a piece of broken rock while his other hand wrapped the tattered black robe tightly. That was the robe that Yu Luocha had mended for him.
"Father …!"
In that instant, Xiao Mi Cai seemed to have returned to the past. Her beautiful eyes were filled with a faint red glow and tears were welling up in her eyes.
"Listen to the three seniors and return. Your clan needs you. Don't destroy your entire clan because of me. If that's the case, even if I survive, I will be in so much pain that I wish I was dead. You know that."
"But … Father, you will die." Xiao Mi Cai's voice was hoarse.
Qin Shi smiled and shook his head, "You have been by my side for so long. Don't you understand me?
How many times have I almost died?
In the end, didn't I still survive?
So, I will be fine. You said that you believe me, right? "
"I …!" Xiao Mi Cai choked.
"Listen to your father. Go back to your clan."
Qin Shi spoke once again. Soon after, he turned around and spoke to Cai Qing and the other two, "Three seniors, my daughter is still immature and has been spoiled by me during these years. I know that the three of you truly treat her well. Therefore, bring her away from this place and promise me that you will protect her well. Regardless of whether it is here or when you return to the Beast Realm, you must protect her well."
The mouths of Cai Qing and the others twitched. One could see that the three of them were helpless. Cai Qing said, "Little fellow, don't worry. Her Majesty will be fine."
Hearing that, Qin Shi let out a breath. From Cai Qing's words, he knew that the Rainbow Auspicious Cloud Snake Race would not be peaceful at this moment. If little Mi Cai returned there, she would definitely be in danger. Furthermore, little Mi Cai did not have any schemes. She was so naive that she would definitely be at a disadvantage in such a situation. So, with the guarantee of the three of them, he could be at ease.
"That's good."
"Little fellow, I'm sorry. Don't blame the three of us." Cai Qing sighed.
Qin Shi shook his head. He really had no intention of blaming them. If he could exchange his life for the safety of Xiao Mi Cai and the Rainbow Auspicious Cloud Snake Race, he felt that it was worth it.
"Empress, he has already spoken. Let's leave this place. The void that connects to the Beast Realm is about to collapse."
Cai Qing glanced at the void hole and saw that it had indeed become chaotic. She anxiously said to Xiao Mi Cai.
However, Xiao Mi Cai ignored her. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Qin Shi. Only when Qin Shi nodded to her did she start sobbing.
"Father … in the future, Xiao Mi Cai will not be able to stay by your side anymore."
In the end, she tried her best to restrain herself and shifted her gaze away from Qin Shi. She turned around and faced the void with her fists clenched.
A desolate and delicate voice reverberated in the sky.
"Han Clan, if anything happens to my father, there will be a day when your entire clan will be buried with him. I will carve the tombstones of your entire clan in this basin."
