Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1034 - 1030: He Made an Exception (Second Update)
The President nodded repeatedly, showing a look of apology.
From an outsider’s perspective, one might really think that this President would rather offend the people from the General Association in order to give them face.
In reality, only he himself knew.
When he saw the Venerable, without saying a word, wanted to kill Mr. Long directly, and treated them as if they were already dead.
The President immediately confirmed one thing, which was that the Venerable wanted to shift all the blame of losing the copper mirror onto their shoulders.
At this moment, if Mr. Long and his group left, they would have no chance of turning the situation around.
Almost instantly, without thinking, the President decided to seize this only saving grace of Dragon Spirit and the others.
Of the people present, only a few probably did not understand the situation.
Therefore, everyone watched everything unfold with tacit understanding.
If the elder had succeeded the first time, killing Dragon Spirit and Xuan Chu directly, his goal would have naturally been achieved.
But now, his attempt failed, his motive was seen through, and it was clear he couldn’t make another move.
The elder withdrew his previously murderous gaze, no longer looking at Dragon Spirit.
His previous attempt could be said to be out of anger, and if successful, no one could say anything.
But now the opportunity was lost, making a move was unnecessary.
The President, also an old fox, seeing the unfolding scene, internally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he held the position of a small President in a remote place, who doesn’t have a few acquaintances, a few senior brothers, or a sect.
Some things can be done but cannot be out in the open, especially when seen through and the first move has been lost.
No matter the unusual stature of the Venerable, someone can manage him.
Losing the copper mirror was originally a serious crime, and if it was known by those above that he shirked responsibility by doing superfluous things, the crime would only increase.
The President pretended not to understand everything.
Continuing forward, he said in an innocent tone, "Mr. Long, I know you are definitely very angry now.
But given such a significant event, everyone’s mood is somewhat agitated.
I hope you can give me some face, first have a look at the few from the General Association, and after their condition stabilizes, we can discuss apologizing to you."
The President’s attitude was very humble; as long as the two parties didn’t start fighting, he would thank the heavens.
Dragon Spirit continued with a cold hum, clearly indicating that the anger wasn’t easy to dissipate.
Ultimately, it was still Xuan Chu who stood up, saying that he was set to be a good senior brother who covers for his junior brother.
"President, my junior brother doesn’t have a great temper either, but we must give you some face.
Consider this a gratitude for your hospitality these days. Allow me to check on the injuries of the few from the General Association."
Dragon Spirit proudly walked to the chair beside him, crossing his legs as he sat.
This attitude brightly showed everyone he could give them some face, but this face was limited.
No one can simply let things go with just a few words of apology after offending him.
As long as there is a way out, someone can treat the injuries of the General Association people, which is enough.
As for whether Dragon Spirit or Xuan Chu treats them, it is not important.
The other people from the local association, seeing the earlier tension, now saw it finally improving.
They also breathed a sigh of relief, ah, they really have had it tough.
Xuan Chu walked towards the bed, passing the elder while releasing his own pressure.
This pressure had a trace of Heavenly Dao Restriction’s power.
Xuan Chu had almost never used the power from Heavenly Dao Restriction to oppress anyone.
But at this moment, he made an exception.
Xuan Chu’s master once wondered if Yun Ran might be the first person for whom Xuan Chu made an exception.
Xuan Kong even pondered whether, if Xuan Chu made an exception for Yun Ran, he would be manipulated by Yun Ran, that clever girl.
But he might have never dreamt that the exception made by Xuan Chu was not for Yun Ran but for Dragon Spirit, who wasn’t very compatible with him.
Although the elder didn’t kill Dragon Spirit and Xuan Chu with a single hit, he didn’t take the two young men seriously.
Therefore, when Xuan Chu passed by him, he didn’t even think of defending himself.
So when Xuan Chu’s pressure with Heavenly Dao Restriction hit the elder directly.
With a "poof," the elder not only spat out blood, his whole face turned a bit red.
At the same time, a voice drifted to his ear.
"This is the price of your daring to strike!"
The local association’s people, seeing this scene, were again so shocked they lost their expression management.
Is this how experts are; making moves so casually?
One makes a move out of disagreement, attacking to cut off a person’s head.
The other, also out of disagreement, just passes by and causes someone to spit blood.
Is this the way experts exchange moves; this precision in control, the move only assaults the targeted person.
While others, even those standing next, won’t be affected at all.
The President’s eyes flashed, having seen Mr. Long make a move, knowing Mr. Long’s techniques are extraordinary.
Whether it was saving their lives earlier, catching the Two-headed Resentful Spirit Snake easily, or fighting with the Black Robed People who stole the copper mirror.
These all evidenced Mr. Long’s power reaching a terrifying level.
For a sect or individual, having one or two outstanding disciples is already quite good.
So, Xuan Chu, who hadn’t made a move, in their eyes.
Was regarded as one whose brain worked well, able to control his junior brother, with skills but likely not exceeding Mr. Long’s.
But what happened just now, shattered their conventional views.
Who said a sect or a family can’t have many prodigies?
With just a sidestep, leaving the respected Venerable, feared by them, in such a state.
Even without feeling his pulse, they could see the injuries on the Venerable weren’t light.
Those few from the General Association who are still unharmed.
Initially had no options, thinking a live horse is worth treating as a dead horse, just considering if the person might help.
So their attitude was like that.
Otherwise, those repeatedly seeking out Xuan Chu and his companions were all locals from the association, they didn’t come even once.
After witnessing Xuan Chu’s strength.
Both the local association people and the General Association people couldn’t help swallowing their saliva.
