The Emperor is Above

Chapter 43 I Don't Need to Sorry

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. I've seen people fighting for fame, wealth, titles, and nobles. I've also seen people fighting for fields, houses, money, and grain. There are also people fighting for beautiful women, but this is the first time I've seen someone fighting to admit that he is a fool."

After arranging tasks for everyone, Qing Yi turned around and looked at the merchant. He still had his hand on the hilt of the sword, smiling, but his eyes were slightly cold.
"We fought off an ambush by dozens of wild bandits from the Blood Wolf Tribe on the way and shot dead a junior totem warrior, but there were still beastmasters from the Blood Wolf Tribe lurking in the dark.

I originally wanted to remind you to be careful of night attacks, but I didn't expect you to be so arrogant and rampant. Is there anyone in the world more stupid than you?

Although you are a foolish person seeking your own death, I don't want these dozens of people to die together because of your stupidity. That's all I have to say. Take care of yourself."

"You bastard, you are still wet behind the ears, and you are not qualified to blame me?" The merchant was immediately humiliated and angry by Qing Yi's ridicule.
"You are barely fifteen years old, and you grew up among the ignorant people of your village. Yet you dare to boast that you can kill a junior totem warrior, and you dare to insult me ​​and call me a fool seeking death."

At this point, he waved his hand and ordered several guards around him, "Catch him for me. He offended me today, and I want him to know who is seeking his own death."

"As ordered!"

The four guards were silent. They drew their swords without hesitation after receiving the order and coordinated with each other to surround the enemy from all sides.

Qing Yi noticed that many drivers and servants in the caravan were quietly shaking their heads, and he couldn't bear to look at them again. The young man just now didn't move, as if he didn't know what was happening in the outside world.

He continued to sneer, "Haha, I was definitely wrong just now. There are too many stupid people in this world who don't believe that they are stupid. It is the whole world that is at fault. I should let the stupid people die of stupidity!"

The merchant became even more furious, his face flushed with shame and anger, and he desperately urged the four guards to take Qing Yi down, otherwise he would be severely punished.

"I'm sorry, young man! Although you are kind enough to remind me, we are following orders and have no choice but to offend you!" The oldest of the four guards looked slightly apologetic, but he drew his sword and slashed at him without mercy.

"Be careful, we are coming too!" another guard warned, and stabbed with a sword from the side and rear without hesitation.

"I don't need to apologize, it's a pity that the four of you followed fools. I hope you can live to see tomorrow!"

The conversation did not delay the fight between the two sides. Qing Yi was instantly shrouded in sword light. In his eyes, the coordination of the four guards was too disorganized and full of flaws.

"Ding Ding Ding-"

After only a brief moment of confrontation, the swords in the hands of the four guards were knocked down. They retreated back in horror, their fingers, wrists, and arms so numb that they could not move.

"Manager Shangqiu, we brothers have done our best!" The older guard who had just reminded Qing Yi said helplessly, "The other party may look young, but his strength should not be underestimated. Let's not pester him any further."

The short and fat businessman known as Shangqiu's manager became more and more angry and said, "Dongmenhu, you four brothers are really useless. Everyone says you are tigers, leopards, bears and wolves, but I think you are just four useless sick cats."

"Meow-"

The civet cat lying lazily on the roof of the car not far away suddenly made a dissatisfied sound, which made Shangqiu's manager feel a chill down his spine.

He did not continue to scold the four brothers of Dongmen, but turned and ran to the young man who was alone by the fire, still with an arrogant look on his face, and said:
"Gongsun Wu, if you can defeat the man who humiliated me, I will take the responsibility for the loss you caused to the caravan."

"Ok?"

The handsome young man's eyes jumped, and he seemed to be somewhat moved by the merchant's suggestion, but then he still lowered his head and said, "Manager Shangqiu, I appreciate your kindness, but I advise you to quickly prepare to beware of the wild people's night attack."

"Gongsun Wu, I treated you with all my kindness in the past, but you caused the caravan to lose a lot of money. Now I am kind enough to help you, but you are so ungrateful."

The Shangqiu manager could not persuade the young man, and he could not help but get angry and said, "Do you think the other party can kill a junior totem warrior?" "Haha!"

The young man named Gongsun Wu couldn't help but chuckle, his eyes full of mockery, "Manager Shangqiu, even someone as down and out as me, Gongsun Wu, can be promoted to the eighth-grade warrior realm at the age of sixteen.

He was able to kill a junior totem warrior at the age of fifteen, so what's so unbelievable about that? Wasn't the prince of Xinghou already a sixth-rank upper-armor warrior at the age of twenty?"

"How can a foolish boy from the countryside be compared with a great man from the capital? Not to mention being compared with the prince of the king, is he worthy?"

The Shangqiu manager rebuked Qing Yi angrily before looking at the young man angrily and said, "Gongsun Wu, are you really not going to help me?"

"That depends on me being able to beat them!" Gongsun Wu poked the bonfire in front of him and said helplessly, "The four brothers from Dongmen are ninth-grade warriors, and their combined attack skills are as good as those of eighth-grade warriors, but they were defeated in the blink of an eye.

Now the other party is still showing mercy. If you continue to be relentless, what if you really anger them and they kill us all, and then say that it was the barbarians and thieves who did it? What will you do then?"

"He dares?" Manager Shangqiu suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He quietly shrank his neck and secretly glanced at Qing Yi not far away. Even the strongest Gongsun Wu admitted that he was not as good as the other party. He was afraid of really angering this young man.

"hey-hey--"

Although the distance was quite far, Qing Yi could still hear Gongsun Wu's words. He pretended to sneer murderously and made a throat-cutting gesture towards the short and fat merchant.

This time the short and fat merchant didn't dare to say anything more. His face turned blue and red, and he returned to his camp, suppressing his anger.

After such an unexpected conflict, the two families were separated by dozens of feet, each guarding their own camp, and no longer had any thoughts of interacting with each other.

"Haha, our village chief is still so awesome!" At the camp on top of the hill, although the people in Huaiqiu did not rush over, they were always paying attention to Qingyi's safety, ready to provide reinforcements at any time if anything unfavorable happened.

At this time, the camp on the top of the hill had been arranged, with a warm campfire burning, and the pots and pans brought by Tu Shigu were just right for use.

Two large copper pots with a diameter of more than four feet were placed on the campfire. Chai Yong, Daniu and his men indeed caught two alligators from the nearby river. Although they were both young ordinary wild beasts, they weighed at least two hundred kilograms.

After washing and peeling, cut into large pieces and throw into the copper pot. Simply sprinkle some salt, ginger and garlic. Soon the soup in the pot will turn milky white. Add some wild vegetables growing out of the grass, and the aroma will immediately come.

After a sumptuous dinner, Qing Yi asked Chai Yong to arrange people to take turns on night duty. The others finally breathed a sigh of relief and finally had time to rest.

Naturally, Tun Shigu's servants were frightened along the way, and most of the militiamen in Huaiqiu were fighting and killing for the first time, so they were inevitably excited along the way, and soon the exhausted people fell into a deep sleep.

Because of its previous contributions, the little fox was given a large piece of alligator meat and was also assigned to help keep watch at night to prevent sneak attacks by the wild folks.

The tabby cat had a good appetite and ate a lot, but it was still lazily lying beside the campfire and taking a nap, not disturbed by today's battle at all.

The night in mid-spring is still a little chilly, and the gentle night breeze makes the bonfire flicker.

"Ouch——"

Suddenly a loud wolf howl broke the silence of the night. Qing Yi immediately drew his sword and stood up to look towards the source of the sound.
