Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 363 - 345 Liu Baiying

Liu Baiying finished speaking and left with a piercing laugh.

Qin Qing’s heart swelled with even more guilt.

"Miss Hongxue, it seems... I’ve implicated you," Qin Qing said.

"Qin Qing!" Liu Hongxue stared at him earnestly, "Do you remember what we said in Qian Country?"

"Hmm?" Qin Qing frowned slightly.

"We said that we are friends! Right? Friends shouldn’t count these things against each other—going all out for a friend. Isn’t that what we are supposed to do?"

Qin Qing was moved and nodded, "Yes! Hongxue, we are friends!"

"It’s just that..." Liu Hongxue immediately continued, "Now the family wants me to return. If it’s true what my second sister said, that the family wants to take back all of my privileges, I’m afraid I won’t be able to help you and Little Shuang any longer..."

Qin Qing nodded.

He knew that if Liu Hongxue could help him, she would spare no effort.

"I need to go back to the clan first, you and Little Shuang come with me. I’ll see if I can ask the family’s pharmacist to take a look at Shuang’s illness first!" Liu Hongxue said.

Qin Qing glanced at Qin Shuang.

Qin Shuang’s skin was somewhat flushed, showing signs of Fire Disease since yesterday.

The situation seemed to be getting more serious.

There was indeed no time to hesitate.

"Alright!" Qin Qing nodded.

He led Qin Shuang and followed Liu Hongxue to the Liu Family estate.

The Liu Clan’s mansion was located in the central area of Tianyong City.

Since Tianyong City was the largest city in the southern part of Tai’a Ancient Country, the fact that the Liu Clan occupied such a central location within such an ancient and grand city and owned thousands of acres of land demonstrated the Liu Family’s status in Tianyong City.

Following Liu Hongxue into the Liu Family mansion, Qin Qing truly realized what a luxurious estate was.

All kinds of rare and exotic beasts were kept in the estate, precious Spirit Grass was planted in the gardens, and Qin Qing even saw a Tree of Life, with Fruits of Life hanging from it.

However, this Tree of Life was nurtured within a peculiar Spiritual Array and did not affect other parts of the estate.

"In Qian Country, Qin Sheng used every means and strategy just to obtain a single Fruit of Life, yet here in the Liu Family estate, Fruits of Life are merely ornamental items in the garden..."

Qin Qing sighed internally, acknowledging that without venturing out, he truly was a frog at the bottom of a well.

"Liu Hongxue, you’ve finally come back!"

Just then, a sharp and cold rebuke suddenly sounded.

Qin Qing looked up and saw a middle-aged woman with an exquisite makeup, quite stunning to look at with her melon-seed shaped face and slender eyes that gave a sharp and mean impression.

"Big Auntie!" Liu Hongxue hurriedly approached.

"Immediately roll over to the East Campus. You’ve caused a big disaster this time, and you might as well surrender the position of heir!" said the middle-aged woman coldly.

Liu Hongxue murmured quietly in response. She didn’t even dare to look directly into the woman’s fierce eyes as she pulled Qin Qing to leave.

"Stop!" the middle-aged woman shouted again, and this time her gaze was on Qin Qing, "And who are you?"

Just as Liu Hongxue was about to explain, the middle-aged woman rebuked, "Shut up, let him speak for himself!"

She extended her long finger, the nail polish on it a vivid red, and pointed at Qin Qing with an imperious attitude, "You’re not mute, why let someone else speak for you?"

"I am Qin Qing!" Qin Qing said.

"Qin Qing?" The middle-aged woman raised the corners of her mouth slightly upon hearing this and said, "As far as I know, there isn’t a prominent family or power with the surname Qin in Tianyong City, is there?"

"I am not from Tianyong City, not even from Tai’a Ancient Country... I come from Qian Country!" Qin Qing stated.

He felt there was nothing worth concealing about his origins; he indeed hailed from Qian Country, born in an inconspicuous place, but Qin Qing didn’t find this shameful at all!

One cannot choose their place of birth.

However, at this point, the middle-aged woman’s face showed an even stronger hint of mockery upon hearing that Qin Qing was not from Tai’a Ancient Country but from a nation called Qian Country.

She seldom even heard of Qian Country.

"There’s actually such a country on Tian Nian Star?" The middle-aged woman’s tone became even more derisive.

"Mother!"

Just then, Liu Baiying suddenly walked in from the outside.

"Bai Ying!" Upon seeing Liu Baiying, the middle-aged woman immediately showed a doting smile.

Her expression was completely different from the one she had when she was looking at Liu Hongxue.

This made Qin Qing secretly speculate—the middle-aged woman... whom Liu Hongxue called auntie.

Presumably, she was not Liu Hongxue’s biological mother, who should be a concubine of the head of the Liu Clan... 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

That is to say, Liu Hongxue and Liu Baiying were likely half-sisters sharing the same father.

"Mother, you might not know, but Qian Country is just an insignificant small country to the east of Tai’a Ancient Country. As for the size of this nation, it’s probably even smaller than Tianyong," Liu Baiying said mockingly.

The middle-aged woman suddenly understood, "Oh, I see. Liu Hongxue was exiled there, to Qian Country, right?"

"That’s right!" Liu Baiying nodded. "She was tasked by the family to go to Qian Country... Initially, the family wanted her to thoroughly train herself over there, but unexpectedly, she took a lover... Moreover, Mother, you might not know, but her lover is quite bold; he actually killed Xu Sihe’s wife and even severely beat their child."

"What?" The middle-aged woman’s expression instantly turned colder: "So, you’re the scoundrel who killed Mrs. Xu? Very well, since you’ve come together, you’ll both go to the East Campus. Right now, the head of the Xu family, Xu Sihe, is there. You’ll be skinned and have your tendons pulled out!"

Qin Qing’s expression darkened.

He looked coldly at the middle-aged woman and the young woman named Liu Baiying.

"Qin Qing, don’t be impulsive!"

Liu Hongxue whispered.

She knew of Qin Qing’s temper; even when he was just a Body Refining martial disciple in Tianjue City, he had faced the enemy alone, causing blood to flow into rivers and fought his way out of Tianjue City.

A Soul Refinement Realm daredevil who had slain scores of the second-generation rich in Luochuan Imperial City.

To have him explode on the spot and kill Liu Baiying and her daughter right there wasn’t impossible...

However, Liu Hongxue was well aware that if Qin Qing dared to do so, no one could save him once inside the Liu residence!

"Let’s go to the East Campus together," Liu Hongxue said softly.

Qin Qing nodded.

"Brother!" Qin Shuang tugged at her brother’s sleeve.

"Sister, are you afraid?" Qin Qing asked.

"Not afraid!" Qin Shuang shook her head: "As long as Brother is here, Shuang is not afraid of anything!"

"Alright! It’s okay, the fault doesn’t lie with you, and my father is not an unreasonable man..." Liu Hong said.
