Chapter 1242: Chapter 220: Struggle in the Trap
Chu Sheng knew that there might be soone secretly fanning the flas, wanting to see Qingtian Escort Agency’s disgrace. However, whether it was the City Lord Mansion manipulating behind the scenes or so other force causing trouble, it didn’t matter. The disgrace that Qingtian Escort Agency suffered could be reclaid, and everything would not be a problem. They might even reopen the Lingnan escort route, which would be a great gain for Qingtian Escort Agency!
Accompanied by the escort masters from Qingtian Escort Agency, they grandly returned to Hang City. Even before entering the city, the escort masters could feel the villagers whispering about them.
A Great Master, Tong Yuan, following behind Chu Sheng, raised his eyebrows and said, “Why do I feel like these people are talking about us?”
Upon hearing this, Chu Sheng calmly said, “Shut up, let’s return to the agency first.”
With Chu Sheng’s command, the escort masters suppressed their doubts and quickly returned to the agency.
Upon returning to the agency, Chu Sheng imdiately ordered the gathering of all escort masters.
At the sa ti, he also called Master Lei over.
“Lei Zheng, where is Qin Hong now?”
In response to Chu Sheng’s calm inquiry, Lei Zheng imdiately said, “Chief, I’ve kept that kid stabilized at the Yuelai Inn.”
“You did well,” Chu Sheng nodded in satisfaction. Lei Zheng was clever enough; it seed he hadn’t chosen wrong by leaving him in charge. Chu Sheng then said, “Since that’s the case, bring him over. He beat the Great Master of my Qingtian Escort Agency; we can’t just let this go!”
Hearing the chief’s words, Lei Zheng imdiately understood his attitude towards the matter and nodded in agreent.
Soon, Lei Zheng arrived at the Yuelai Inn and found Qin Hong, who was ditating.
Opening his eyes and exiting his ditation state, Qin Hong opened the door and was not surprised to see Lei Zheng.
In recent days, Lei Zheng had been visiting almost daily to console him, making Qin Hong feel as if he were a one-in-a-million Martial Arts Genius.
“Haha, Brother Qin, the chief has returned today and can’t wait to see a young genius like you. Co on, let’s et the chief.”
Without saying more, Lei Zheng pulled Qin Hong out of the Yuelai Inn. To be honest, Lei Zheng was quite tired of flattering Qin Hong during this ti. After all, he was a master in the Mountain Opening Realm in Hang City and had his own dignity. He couldn’t endure this any longer and hoped the chief would resolve it soon.
Following Lei Zheng’s footsteps, they arrived at the training ground in the agency’s backyard once again.
The row of houses and walls that Qin Hong had destroyed earlier had been repaired. At this mont, nurous escort masters from Qingtian Escort Agency stood straight around the large training ground, each holding a weapon, exuding a murderous aura.
These escort masters carved their paths with blades and swords, with each carrying the burden of multiple or even hundreds of lives.
At the center high platform of the training ground sat a tall, burly middle-aged man, his expression indifferent and unreadable.
Behind him stood a row of six people, the six Great Masters of the escort agency, along with the already disabled and Lei Zheng standing in front of Qin Hong, forming a complete group of Qingtian Escort Agency’s eight Great Masters.
Seeing the intense atmosphere in the vast training ground, Qin Hong’s pupils slightly narrowed. This did not seem like what Lei Zheng had told him!
Upon seeing Qin Hong’s face for the first ti, Wei Ming was taken aback. From the chief’s earlier vague words, Wei Ming had guessed they were likely dealing with soone, but he hadn’t expected it to be the young talent he had previously invited to join the agency.
“Chief, uh…”
Wei Ming just wanted to speak but was interrupted by Chief Chu saying, “Shut up, this is not your place to talk today!”
With Chu Sheng’s growing pressure, Wei Ming didn’t dare to contradict, feeling extrely anxious but helpless.
“Chief, the person has been brought!” Lei Zheng bowed to Chu Sheng before quickly retreating from the Martial Arts Arena, leaving Qin Hong alone, watched coldly by everyone in the spacious arena.
At this point, if Qin Hong couldn’t realize what was going on, he’d be an idiot.
“Are you Qin Hong?”
Facing Chu Sheng’s inquiry, Qin Hong said, “Chief Chu, I ca to join your Qingtian Escort Agency, and this doesn’t seem to be a way to treat guests, does it?”
“Insolent!” A Great Master imdiately rebuked, “Our chief asked you a question, and you dare not respond?!”
“Haha, if Qingtian Escort Agency does not welco , then I can leave,” Qin Hong gave Lei Zheng a deep look. Now, he understood that the flattery and sweet talk of recent days were all nonsense.
With that, Qin Hong intended to turn and leave.
But the way down from the Martial Arts Arena was already blocked by a group of escort masters who stepped forward.
Seeing the escort masters surrounding the Martial Arts Arena, Qin Hong turned to Chu Sheng and asked in a deep voice, “Chief Chu, what does this an?!”
“What do I an? If you want to join my Qingtian Escort Agency, you should co with sincerity. You spouted nonsense in my agency and even injured our Great Master. Do you really take my Qingtian Escort Agency as a joke? You injured my agency’s Great Master. Today, my agency demands an explanation!”
Hearing this, Qin Hong’s expression turned grim, and he asked in a deep voice, “May I ask what explanation Chief Chu wants?”
In response, Chu Sheng smiled and gestured, and Ao Bao, sitting in a wheelchair, was pushed out.
At this mont, Ao Bao was wrapped in bandages, and speaking seed difficult. He could only glare at Qin Hong with eyes that seed to spit fire.
“Kneel and apologize to our Great Master Ao Bao of Qingtian Escort Agency, then break an arm, and you may leave!”
Kneeling and apologizing wasn’t unacceptable to Qin Hong, who had grown up surviving under others, but breaking an arm would end his martial arts path, which he would never agree to.
Of course, Qin Hong couldn’t agree to either of these things. With his master backing him, he had nothing to fear!
Thinking of the suprely powerful Lu Hong, Qin Hong’s spine straightened unconsciously, and he sneered, “What if I say no?”
Upon hearing this, Chief Chu laughed, “Then you shall be buried in the backyard of my Qingtian Escort Agency today. My agency is not a place any Tom, Dick, or Harry can trample upon. If I let you go today, what would happen if soone else injures our escort master tomorrow? Wouldn’t my agency’s spine be broken? My agency is united, and anyone who hurts or disgraces our escort masters, we will surely avenge, even if it ans being crushed to powder. We will never compromise!”
Chu Sheng’s words instantly ignited the fighting spirit within the escort masters.
They all shouted, “Kneel! Apologize!”
Indeed, Chu Sheng placed himself on the moral high ground and rallied the hearts of the entire agency.
His approach was typical; ignoring the facts and asserting you are wrong, you must admit it.
At this mont, explanations were useless for Qin Hong, and the only option was to fight!
He had co in a rush at Lei Zheng’s call without even bringing his wooden sword. Facing so many opponents empty-handed made him less confident, but thinking his master might be hiding nearby, he no longer worried.
“Qingtian Escort Agency is so imposing, bullying an ordinary civilian like ? If so, let see your agency’s capability!”
As Qin Hong’s voice fell, a burly man, nine feet tall, standing behind Chief Chu, roared angrily: “Insolent! I will take you on!”
Saying this, he leaped into the Martial Arts Arena, grabbing the two axes at his waist, and attacked Qin Hong fiercely.
Without a weapon, Qin Hong naturally couldn’t confront him barehanded and hurriedly retreated to dodge.
The burly man wielded his axes with fierce montum, leaving Qin Hong with only the option to dodge, unable to get within three ters of him.
Seeing Qin Hong being forced to retreat and dodge by the burly man, Wei Ming felt a twinge of pity. This young man was soone he had once invited into Qingtian Escort Agency, and now such a calamity had occurred. Wei Ming also had responsibility, but he couldn’t change the chief’s mind, so he could only…
“Young hero, catch the sword!”
Wei Ming gritted his teeth and tossed his weapon into the Martial Arts Arena.
