Chapter 202 - 202 Explanation
202 Explanation
Mo Yuan shook his head. Although he could sense that the world was about to change through a secret technique, he could not know the exact time. He replied softly, “Except for the ancient shaman race, no one can detect the exact time of the world’s great change, not even the Gods. But I’m sure it won’t be long.”
“Thank you for the information, Your Highness!” Qin Chen expressed his thanks and discussed the war between the two factions before leaving the demon god race. After that, he found the big scorpion and the other two near Yinyue City.
...“Elder King, are you alright? Did the demon god race give you any trouble?” Seeing that Qin Chen had returned, the big scorpion hurriedly stepped forward and asked with a nervous expression.
When Patriarch Wandu and Ice Mother saw that Qin Chen had returned safely, their eyes turned gloomy for a second before they quickly smiled and ran to welcome him.
They asked, “Elder King, you’re finally back. How did the discussion with the demon god race go? Are they willing to join hands with the human race?”
Qin Chen took a deep look at Patriarch Wandu and Ice Mother, then replied softly, “I’m fine, but the demon god race doesn’t want to join forces with us.”
Hearing this, the big scorpion’s expression changed slightly, while Patriarch Wandu and Ice Mother heaved a sigh of relief. Both of them thank the Gods for this outcome as they sneered at Qin Chen, “Elder King, is it because you didn’t try hard enough to persuade them that the demon god race refused to join forces with the human race? Didn’t you say that the matter was a guarantee when you came to Yinyue City?”
“Hmph, you two are really interesting. The demon god race is not willing to work with the human race, but what does that have to do with the Elder King? If you’re so capable, go talk to the demon god race yourselves!” The big scorpion snorted coldly.
Patriarch Wandu sneered and did not let the matter rest, “This matter concerns the survival of the human race. If the Elder King did not manage to convince the demon god race, how are we going to explain this to the Supreme Sage Qin Tian and the others when we return?”
“Enough. I will give the human race an explanation for this,” Qin Chen snorted coldly, then flew towards the Great Qin Dynasty with the big scorpion.
Looking at the back of the man and the demon, Patriarch Wandu’s face turned cold. He didn’t avoid Ice Mother at all as he snorted, “Elder King, when we return, I will definitely destroy you.”
…
Qin Chen and the other three returned to the Great Qin Dynasty’s imperial city soon. When Supreme Sage Qin Tian and the rest received the news, they gathered in the great hall of the imperial palace to welcome them. All of them looked at Qin Chen and the other three with burning gazes, wanting to know the outcome of the Elder King’s negotiations with the demon god race.
“Elder King, you’ve worked hard. Did the demon god race agree to join forces with our human race?”
“Hahahaha. Since the Elder King has personally gone, I’m sure the demon god race has agreed.”
“Don’t keep us in suspense, Elder King. What’s the demon god race’s attitude? Are they willing to join forces with the humans?”
When the group of people saw that Qin Chen had returned, they couldn’t help but ask him eagerly.
Supreme Sage Qin Tian cleared his throat to silence the crowd. After that, he asked, “Elder King, did the demon god race agree to join forces with the human race?”
“Hmph, I’m afraid to disappoint you all, but the Elder King didn’t manage to convince the demon god race, and the demon god race won’t be joining forces with the human race,” Before Qin Chen could reply, Patriarch Wandu spoke first, his eyes full of mockery.
When the group of people heard this, their eyes were filled with disappointment. They did not expect that the Elder King would not be able to convince the demon god race.
At this time, Ice Mother secretly gave a look to a few of the Sages at the sides. Then, the Sages began to speak one after another, mocking Qin Chen sarcastically.
“Wasn’t the Elder King full of confidence before he left? Why didn’t you manage to convince the demon god race?”
“I heard that Elder King went to the demon god race alone to negotiate. Now that the negotiation has failed, shouldn’t he give us an explanation?”
“Hmph, the Elder King is so arrogant. How can he convince the demon god race?”
“Since the Elder King is so incompetent, how can you not give us an explanation?”
Upon hearing these voices, many in the hall frowned. Patriarch Kuang Ren was more infuriated. He unleashed his Supreme Sage might and barked at the few people who were speaking, “Do you have no brains? The demon god race is one of the ten thousand ancient races, so it’s only right that they don’t agree to work with us. How can you blame the Elder King?”
“Hmph, old man Duanmu, are you trying to exonerate the Elder King? This matter was clearly due to the Elder King’s incompetence, so he naturally has to give us an explanation,” Patriarch Wandu retorted.
“That’s right,” Ice Mother sang along, “It’s only natural that one should be punished for one’s incompetence. Even the Elder King has to give us an explanation. ”
“Explanation? Don’t forget, you two went with the Elder King. Yet you two shameless old hags dare to ask the Elder King to give you an explanation?” Patriarch Kuang Ren shouted coldly, not taking heed of Patriarch Wandu and Ice Mother’s words at all. He simply scolded the two for being shameless in front of everyone.
Patriarch Wandu and Ice Mother’s faces turned red with anger. Patriarch Wandu even shouted at Patriarch Wandu, “Old man Duanmu, since you’re speaking up for the Elder King, could it be that he is your family’s live-in son-in-law? No matter what, he has to give us an explanation today.”
“I’ll f*cking give you an explanation! If you want an explanation, I’ll give it to you. I’m just afraid you won’t dare to take it!” Patriarch Kuang Ren shouted coldly. He took out the Heaven-devouring Emperor Bottle and tried to suppress Patriarch Wandu.
Patriarch Wandu’s expression abruptly changed. He then looked at Supreme Sage Qin Tian and shouted, “Supreme Sage Qin Tian, are you going to let this mad dog bite people?”
Supreme Sage Qin Tian’s eyes narrowed and his expression turned ugly. He turned to Patriarch Kuang Ren and said softly, “Brother Duanmu, we’re all humans. Let’s stop!”
Patriarch Kuang Ren harrumphed. He did not want to make things difficult for Supreme Sage Qin Tian. Hence, he kept the Heaven-devouring Emperor bottle. However, his eyes were still staring at Patriarch Wandu and Ice Mother as he exerted a great amount of pressure on the two.
Patriarch Wandu ignored Patriarch Kuang Ren’s gaze and snorted again, “Supreme Sage Qin Tian, if the Elder King does not explain himself, I’m afraid everyone will complain.”
“Hmph, I’d like to see who’s so ignorant to be in cahoots with you, you shameless old man,” Patriarch Kuang Ren said coldly as he glared at the crowd, silencing them.
“Old man Duanmu, aren’t you going too far by bullying everyone?” Ice Mother snorted.
Patriarch Kuang Ren’s eyes turned cold as he glared at Ice Mother. A terrifying pressure came crashing down, causing Ice Mother to be caught off guard and retreat a few steps back.
At this moment, Qin Chen, who had been silent all this while, suddenly yawned. He looked at Patriarch Wandu and Ice Mother coldly and said in a deep voice, “What kind of explanation do you want me to give you?”
