Chapter 214
Could sparrows and swallows match the will of the great swan? This was a common saying that even children had probably heard of . However, there were many people who would consider themselves to be great swans .
This man had actually said that he was Yan Que, the very Yan Que who had created this saying . His tone was rather subdued, as if he was afraid that they wouldn't have heard of him .
Lu Qubing's cough became even more intense after he heard this introduction . There were only a few people who could make Viceroy Lu cough that violently .
"Yan Que, we fought side by side all those years ago . Why have you come all this way to interfere?" Lu Qubing said after taking a deep breath .
"I know what you mean, Old Lu, but that man is my grandnephew and the only male heir of our family, so I had no choice but to come . " As Yan Que spoke, his fingers caressed the saber hanging by his side gently .
The old saber, just like Yan Que's eyes, seemed to have gone through great vicissitudes .
"Why do you want to take away four of them?" The Flame Emperor's voice sounded rushed .
"Since when do you have the right to speak in my presence?" Yan Que glared at the Flame Emperor . Although he had scolded him, his tone was still as calm and unhurried as ever .
Given the Flame Emperor's temperament, if anyone dared criticize him this way, he would normally have retaliated in the same way . However, he now seemed even-tempered and not the least bit embarrassed, as if the man had been right to ask this question .
"Enough! What Old Flame asked is a question I would also like you to answer!" Lu Qubing said .
"This is a task assigned to me by the clan . " Yan Que stared at Lu Qubing as he answered in a deadpan manner . "Although some of these young men are failures, when all is said and done, they are still a part of the Yan Family," Yan Que said calmly and earnestly .
When they heard his words, everyone's faces twitched . Lu Qubing could guess the objective of the ancient martial families .
If they considered Luo Yunyang's decision to execute these young criminals a challenge, then the ancient martial families would use this method to show their high status .
Meanwhile, they would push Luo Yunyang's face in the dirt without restraint .
If Yan Que took four people away, then someone not much weaker than him would soon arrive and take four more away .
There were about 10 of them, so if they were all taken away and not a single one was executed, then the incident at the Yellow Leaf Platform would turn into a joke .
Lu Qubing was about to say more, when Luo Yunyang waved his hand and told Yan Que decisively, "No!"
Luo Yunyang didn't care what sort of person Yan Que was . All he knew was that, no matter what happened, he had to defy his authority .
Otherwise, he wouldn't be the Blood Strike Guard Commissar for much longer .
Yan Que remained silent . He wasn't looking at Luo Yunyang . Instead, he was staring at Lu Qubing . He clearly still treated Lu Qubing as the decision-maker .
Meanwhile, Lu Qubing was coughing so hard that he couldn't even breathe properly .
He seemed to be grieving as he went through this round of violent coughing . In the end, he fixed his gaze on Luo Yunyang .
"You are the Blood Strike Guard's commander-in-chief, so you will be calling the shots today . However, you should know that Yan Que became a martial grandmaster three years after the apocalypse, so you have to be really careful!" Lu Qubing suddenly shuddered . "Back then, he fought with a Martial God who had yet to become a god-grade entity, but couldn't be defeated in less than 100 moves . "
