Chapter 76: A Strange Person

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Qi Cheng stared at him for a while. He took back his sword and placed it around his waist with an ambiguous look in his eyes.

However, Ke Ruan knew that Qi Cheng had already agreed.

“I’ll give you a chance to prove that the Qi Family is innocent and clear all of our names from crime. As what you said, we will follow you. If you don’t do what you said today, we will kill you at all costs.”

Ke Ruan kept nodding. If he could save his life, he would be so grateful. So he would try his best to find out the truth.

“Settle the matter of Yuliang County as soon as possible. You know what to do with the county magistrate, don’t you?”

Ke Ruan nodded. “I know.”

He also thought the county magistrate was so shameless.

Ke Ruan had a look at them and said, “So, can I… stand up now?”

Everyone looked at Qi Cheng. To be honest, what Ke Ruan said was really touching. Besides, the chief also said that they would follow Ke Ruan. If Ke Ruan dared to lie to them, they would kill him at all costs.

Qi Cheng nodded slightly. Ke Ruan was delighted, and he quickly stood up and patted his clothes. He must practice his martial arts well when he went back. He would never allow himself to be as arrogant as he was today.

He didn’t even get a chance to fight back when he was beaten up, which was so embarrassing.

“You little bastard, I don’t trust you.” There came a roar, followed by a strong sense of anger. Ke Ruan was shocked, and his body sensed the dangers and subconsciously avoided the sword that was about to stab his vital part.

“Stop!” Qi Cheng was also shocked. When he saw that Ke Ruan avoided the stab, he sighed in relief subconsciously.

Although Ke Ruan avoided the sword, his arm was still stabbed. Soon, he could feel the piercing pain. Ke Ruan gasped and thought how he could be so unlucky. His arm was stabbed, and now someone stabbed the same position this time.

“F**k! Can you just listen to your chief?”

The man didn’t say anything at all. He just tried his best to assassinate Ke Ruan.

The killing intention was so strong, and Ke Ruan had never feel it even from Qi Cheng before.

The man’s eyes looked a bit cold.

Qi Cheng also realized that something was wrong. He went up to stop the man and gave an order, “Catch him. I want him alive.”

Ke Ruan was so touched. It took him so much time to convince Qi Cheng, and now he finally understood. Qi Cheng knew that he needed to keep Ke Ruan alive. For this reason, Ke Ruan thought that he must find out the truth for them.

Ke Ruan intended to avoid the fight but before he could do that, he heard a hurried voice, which was full of worries.

“Childe, be careful.”

“Qi Cheng, you…” Lin Qingye raised his sword and stopped Qi Cheng.

Ke Ruan’s eyes widened and said hurriedly. “No… General Lin, no…”

He didn’t have time to explain anything. The man who was full of killing intentions came straight at Ke Ruan with his sword.

More importantly…

Though Lin Qingye came, he did not help and even let those who were helping Ke Ruan go to help Qi Cheng instead.

Ke Ruan was on the verge of collapse.

Qi Cheng was eyeing on Lin Qingye in astonishment but his eyes were filled with pains. His brother Ye just pointed at him with a sword even without asking him the reason or whether he had hurt Ke Ruan or not.

Why?

“Qi Cheng, haven’t I told you not to hurt Ke Ruan before?” Lin Qingye glared at Qi Cheng coldly.

Qi Cheng could only feel the coldness all over. He wanted to explain but he couldn’t say a word.

Even Ke Ruan said it was not like this.

However, Brother Ye didn’t believe Qi Cheng, did he?
