Rebirth of an Idle Noblewoman Chapter 215 - Deader Than Dead

Chapter 215: Deader Than Dead

In the Wanqi mansion, a tall handsome man stood in front of a pet.i.te flaming red bird, listening to the criticism that came from the animal.

“You’re an idiot. Beauty Qiao expended so much effort to heal you, and now you’re walking into death yourself!” Even though it was a bird full of feathers, Wanqi Jue could feel the anger and resentment radiating from it.

He sighed, completely accepting the fact that this bird that could talk was real indeed. He also knew that the bird was a divine beast, but it never told him its name.

“Great Divine Beast.” Wanqi Jue knew that this was Gu Xiqiao’s pet, so he didn’t dare to neglect it in the slightest. More importantly, the teleportation technique that the divine beast had used to transport all his people had completely won him over. “I don’t have the intention to die, it was just an illusion just now. My subordinates have already broken through to rescue the people.”

Wanqi Jue valued lives more than anyone else, how could he do such things just because of one word from Wanqi Yun?

But it was extremely dangerous just now, if they didn’t have the help of the power of the divine beast, they would have had to sacrifice at least half the people to get out. Unlike now, when they could all retreat as a whole, just because Wanqi Yun had found his weakness.

“At least you’re still salvageable.” Xixi flapped its wings. “Beauty Qiao has woken up this morning. Mama Tang has come over to check on her so she won’t be coming. But her next step in the plan should have already been sent to you.”

Gu Xiqiao didn’t have the intentions to come over at all, and it seemed that she had already predicted that something would happen, and before she dispatched Xixi over, she had already sought out Boss Bai, Yao Jiamu, Yu Ning, and many others.

Xixi didn’t know what Gu Xiqiao had been up to since she woke up, but it didn’t dare to slack off from the task that Gu Xiqiao had given it. Now that Gu Xiqiao had woken up, Xixi was in good spirits, but in the few days when she was unconscious, Xixi had been worried out of its mind.

Especially because Jiang Shuxuan wouldn’t tell it anything! If it wasn’t for the fact that Xixi had gone home to see Haha that day and the dog had informed it, Xixi wouldn’t have known at all.

And that was why it had picked a fight with Jiang Shuxuan before coming here.

Of course, Xixi was completely beaten to the ground.

Thinking about this, Xixi lamented a little.

“She’s woken up? What does that mean?” Wanqi Jue looked up suddenly, his piercing eyes on Xixi.

Xixi glared at him. “Isn’t it because she was saving you! That’s why you have to value your life more, otherwise, before I even bother to teach you a lesson, others will come and hammer it into your head instead!” Xixi wasn’t willing to say anymore on the topic.

Wanqi Jue was silent when he heard the first sentence, his eyes dropping slightly as his face darkened. He pursed his lips rightly. “Alright, I understand. I will guard my life properly this time.”

Even a child can still be taught, and Xixi was satisfied with his answer, but then it got dejected in the next moment.

There was n.o.body it knew in this group. Haha wasn’t here, Beauty Qiao wasn’t here, there was also no Little Wuzi for it to bully. Sigh, it really was such a cold, lonely life here.

“My lord, your aunt has awakened.” A subordinate knocked on the door, informing Wanqi Jue.

Wanqi Jue turned around to go to his aunt, and after determining that she was fine, he went back to his room. The email that Gu Xiqiao had sent him was on his computer, and clicking on it to open it, he chuckled lightly after a long while.

Ever since he disappeared from the airport, Wanqi Yun and the leader never bothered him again. Wanqi Jue knew that they were planning something again, but he didn’t continue to bother about them, but had gathered the remaining people from the Wanqi family.

Wanqi Yun had taken a small portion of the people from the family, while a big portion of the others who had refused to accept Wanqi Yun had been rounded up and arrested by the leader on criminal charges.

The Wanqi family were only left with the elderly, women and children now.

The leader didn’t dare to touch the Wanqi family previously due to their prestige, but now, not knowing what crazy thing had happened, they had gone and imprisoned most of the Wanqi family people.

Wanqi Jue wanted to break in alone to rescue the Wanqi family people one by one, and kill off the leader at the same time. He restrained this impulse, because although he had the strength to do it, there were still some who were weaker than him in the Wanqi family. Sure, he could get away on his own, but what about the others?

He couldn’t just leave them there to die! If he was that sort of person, then he would have just killed the people who he didn’t like in the first place!

Sometimes, when a person has so much burden, it was had to move when it restrained his hands and legs.

Wanqi Jue knew that the leader knew what he was capable of too, and that’s why he took so many hostages to control Wanqi Jue. Obviously, the effect was achieved.

The special forces in England were shuffling.

The ancient and mysterious force of the Wanqi family was bound to be extinguished, this was obvious on the surface.

Wanqi Yun had taken the Wanqi family people to seek refuge from the leader, and in his possession countless resources, while Wanqi Jue was all alone with just a few subordinates. If you compared to the leader, there was no comparison at all, the outcome was already obvious to everyone else.

Wanqi Jue, once a stunning leader who made countless people in the special forces envious and jealous, had now fallen to such a pitiful state.

Even Krebs, who had the strongest and solid relations.h.i.+p with the Wanqi family, had taken refuge with the leader. In everyone’ eyes, the outcome was inevitable.

Some people felt regretful at the situation, but no one was crazy enough to reach a hand out to Wanqi Jue at this time.

As the most powerful person of this generation in England, Wanqi Jue’s status in England’s Special Forces was still far inferior to that of Jiang Shuxuan in China’s ancient martial arts world. But it was still quite authoritative, and he had helped England solve many problems before. Almost every family had been helped by him before.

Even so, no one wanted to help him at this time, but instead were tossing rocks down a well[1].

“Lord Krebs, I heard that Wanqi Jue disappeared from the airport suddenly. There are rumors that Wanqi Jue had help from the G.o.ds, and they had obtained a supreme teleportation technique. Should we…” One of the Krebs family members was looking slightly worried at the news.

Hearing those words, Krebs rubbed his chin that was full of beard, a dim light crossing his eyes. “Teleportation? Wanqi Jue? He’s not that person from China. Wanqi Yun has already obtained the mark of inheritance from the Wanqi family yesterday, no matter what Wanqi Jue has up his sleeves, he can’t escape from the palm of the leader.”

“Wanqi Jue has already obtained the Seal of Inheritance?” The doorman repeated, shocked. The Wanqi family’s mark of inheritance was England’s most mysterious and precious power. And it was because of this that the leader had always held some jealousy in his heart, and not made a move against them.

Ignoring everything else, it was only because the mark that the leader had been afraid of. That was a testament of how terrifying the mark was.

“Not only has he gotten it, he has even shared the seal with the leader.” Krebs laughed loudly. “So tell me, what part of Wanqi Jue should we be afraid of now? With the Seal of Inheritance, even if he is a G.o.d, he would still need to surrender! What we need to do is to express our loyalty to the leader as soon as possible. If we’re late, then we won’t make it in time.”

At Krebs’ remark, the doorman also nodded his agreement. Indeed, compared to the mark of inheritance, Wanqi Jue wasn’t anything at all.

The news that the Seal of Inheritance had been received by the leader spread like wildfire across England as well as its people.

***

At the same time, it was also known to Wanqi Jue. Wanqi Yun had suddenly sent him a video.

In the video, Wanqi Yun’s face was full of mockery, resentment, and sarcasm.

“I was actually going to kill you straight at the airport, but then I changed my mind. I want you to watch as the Wanqi family disappears bit by bit, watch as your most trusted people betray you one by one, and watch those closest to you vanish one by one. All while you sit there, helpless to do anything.” Wanqi Yun flashed a sinister smile at this point. “The first one will be your niece, Yin Aoxue, who you tried to hide away in China. Good luck.”

The screen turned black, and Wanqi Jue’s face twisted. He swept the laptop off the table in anger, calling s.h.i.+ Haizhe’s phone immediately.

Wanqi Yun was a cruel person, s.h.i.+ Haizhe was definitely not a match for a master that was above level seven. For Wanqi Jue to say he wasn’t worried was definitely a lie, and he was regretting the fact that he didn’t bring Yin Aoxue with him now!

***

At the same time, Wanqi Yun was waiting for his subordinate to get him a picture of Yin Aoxue. He wanted to send it to Wanqi Jue as soon as possible, and he wanted to see the look on Wanqi Jue’s face when he received it. While he was waiting, his subordinate gave him a call, horror in his voice. “My lord, there is a powerful woman by Yin Aoxue’s side. All three of our level seven masters have been beaten by her! She used only one move, just one move!”

The power structure in England was divided into twelve levels according to their ranks, but there had not ever been one who had reached the highest level. Even the strongest master in England, Wanqi Jue, was only at level nine.

The three level seven masters were Wanqi Yun’s final trump card, and he had initially thought that sending those masters would make an easy task of killing off the girl, as well as handling s.h.i.+ Haizhe. He didn’t expect this to happen.

Wanqi Yun was already on cloud nine imagining his success, but then the computer in front of him turned on suddenly, a little with golden hair appearing on the screen. “Hey ugly! Sister Gu, hurry and close the video, I don’t want to look at this ugly guy! I want to talk to Brother Wanqi, he’s way better looking than this ugly thing!”

The video turned off then, and Wanqi Yun angrily slammed his hand down on the computer.

The computer was crushed in an instant, leaving on the crackle of electricity.

Everything that came after that went downhill, as though it had been cursed. He had deliberately released the news of the Seal of Inheritance to divert Wanqi Jue’s attention, and borrowed a level seven master from the leader to sneak into the Wanqi family to find Wanqi Jue’s aunt, which he would take as a hostage to threaten Wanqi Jue.

He had thought that it was a foolproof plan this time, but he didn’t expect to find a beast that could breathe fire appearing in between them. The people he had sent in were burnt to crisp, and a level seven master was laid to waste just like that! Fortunately for him, the leader looked the other way regarding the loss of a level seven master due to the Seal of Inheritance. But he could see that the leader was starting to get dissatisfied with him after losing a level seven master.

Wanqi Yun then stopped his plan on making Wanqi Jue suffer for a while. He’d make Wanqi Jue kneel in front of him and beg for mercy at the end anyway!

When he thought about it this way, Wanqi Jue felt so much better.

Until a few days later, when he listened to reports from his subordinates and found out that Wanqi Jue had somehow made contact with England’s secular world, and was even openly cooperating with them.

Wanqi Yun and the leader felt that this was a move made by Wanqi Jue out of desperation, otherwise he wouldn’t be doing something like this. What would he benefit from getting involved with the secular world? What could they do? Even if ten thousand of them came at him, he wouldn’t need more than a finger to wipe them out.

Moreover, these forces were not from the traditional forces of England, but rather an emerging force from China.

It wasn’t only the leader and Wanqi Yun who thought so, even the people in power from England thought that Wanqi Jun had driven into a corner by Wanqi Yun and had gone mad. Cooperating with people from the secular world, had Wanqi Jue gone out of his mind?

Because of this, those who had initially thought that Wanqi Jue still had some hope to be saved, and wanted to watch the fire from the sh.o.r.e and later on throw a lifeline to Wanqi Jue all vanished those thoughts. They felt that Wanqi Jue was no longer a strong weapon, so what if he was strong in his own rights? Being burdened by a bunch of secular world people, it was better to just turn and take refuge with the leader.

However, within just a few days of these remarks and thoughts, those who called the secular world people ‘burdens’ received a literal slap in their faces.

Not knowing what method these regular people had used, they not only got rid of the charges that had gotten the Wanqi family people locked up, they also managed to release everyone. All the evidence had been dug out, and although the leader knew it was fake, he couldn’t find any reason to refute it, so he could only walk away with a black face!

Daring to fight against the leader so openly and direct, haven’t you seen that even a master like Wanqi Jue hadn’t dared to do so?

The people in the power world looked at these regular people, thinking that they were definitely dead people walking. To dare to offend the leader like this, do they really not value their life anymore?

And so the next day, there were people who couldn’t wait to curry favor with the leader. They wanted to make trouble for these regular people, and compete with them, and even sign a death warrant for them.

Although this person wasn’t a great expert, he was still about the level of a level six master. He had thought that this was just a small matter to kill off these regular people with a pinky finger, but he didn’t expect these ‘normal’ people to band together, and when they moved, it became a scene of slaughter!

Those few people who had come to make trouble were kicked back to their homes crying.

Within a few hours, this incident had spread wings and flew through the entire world.

The power world suddenly fell into panic, they didn’t expect the regular people to be so terrifying, to be able to fell masters between the range of level five to six! After several inquiries, they found out those ordinary people were from China, and their organization was called ‘The Bai Gang’.

The Bai Gang? What the h*ll was that? Why hadn’t they heard of them before?

No matter how, these people had really shaken up the power world. The people from the power world didn’t dare to underestimate them any longer, and even those who had sympathized with Wanqi Jue’s situation were now green with envy. What kind of luck did Wanqi Jue have, to be able to enlist the help of such powerful people!

How great would it be if those people could be used by them?

Once the remark was out, it was unstoppable. If you could reach this extent by using regular people, then what else could be achieved if they were instead replaced by a bunch of level five masters? Would they be able to breakthrough and reach level ten?

Thinking of this, the hearts of those in the power world couldn’t help but tremble in excitement. They wanted to find a chance to single out somebody from China, but as though the China people could read their minds, they were never alone, and stuck together all the time.

“What s.h.i.+tty good luck!” Kreb’s clan leader slammed his fist on the table in front of him.

Next to him, the doorman was also in shock. “Master Krebs, what should we do now? With Wanqi Jue finding such power suddenly, if he really rises again, then our Krebs family will…”

He didn’t dare to continue his sentence, but Krebs knew what he meant. Once Wanqi Jue recovered, the first one he would not let go and forgive would be the Krebs family.

“Don’t worry,” Krebs said, a sinister smile on his face. “The leader has already gotten the seal of inheritance, he only needs to wave his hand to beat Wanqi Jue. As for those regular people in the Wanqi daily, there are so many people who are jealous of their secret ways right now, do you think the leader would let them go?”

The doorman’s heart jumped in his chest. “You mean, the leader will kill all of those ordinary people?”

Krebs glanced at him, but didn’t answer. His smile seemed to imply what the other had just said.

No one in the world could escape the punishment of the seal of inheritance.

***

At the same time, in the power circle of England.

The leader that had been in seclusion for many days had finally emerged once again.

“Leader, we are about to launch the final step. Which stage have you reached regarding the fusion with the Seal of Inheritance?” Wanqi Yun asked with a smile as he raised a gla.s.s of wine to his lips.

Hearing the question, the leader smiled smugly. “The highest limit possible, fifty percent.”

Having said that, he stretched out his hand, opening his hand to show a black half square symbol on his palm.

When the mark emerged on his palm, the entire room was filled with an invisible pressure.

Wanqi Yun couldn’t bear the pressure, falling to his knees with a ‘thump’. “Leader, with this seal, you are invincible!” There was envy in his downcasted eyes when he said that. When he had first gotten his hands on the seal, he had wanted to fuse it with himself. Unfortunately for him, the seal did not acknowledge him.

He didn’t expect the leader to succeed, and Wanqi Yun felt the jealousy burning from the bottom of his heart.

“Why don’t you try it,” The leader placed the seal on the ground, and the seal expanded to the size of a child of about seven to eight years old.

Wanqi Yun looked at the seal and reached out to touch it. As soon as his fingers touched the dark, cold seal, a stab of pain pierced through his mind.

He let go immediately, jealousy and shock in his eyes. Its power was far, far more powerful than he had ever imagined.

The Seal of Inheritance only recognized one master at a time, and it was an ancient seal that was pa.s.sed down in England. Only, it had been missing for three generations, and it was unknown why it suddenly appeared in the Wanqi family, and falling into Wanqi Yun’s hands completely by accident. Wanqi Yun had immediately brought it to the leader when it happened.

“Does this mean we can go for Wanqi Jue, leader?” A deep-rooted resentment burst forth on Wanqi Yun’s face. He had been waiting for this day for too long.

Wanqi Jue was just too powerful, and he was helpless against him. Now that they had the Seal of Inheritance, Wanqi Jue’s doom was inevitable!

The leader turned to look out the window, laughing loudly. “I too, cannot wait.”

Can’t wait to see how Wanqi Jue would be beaten down like a dog.

“As for those people from China, I hope that leader, you would spare some of them. Their secrets to being so strong, if we can use those secrets on our own people in the power world, then even without the blessing of ancient martial arts of China, we will be able to have authority in the Special Forces world, and we may even be able to surpa.s.s the ancient martial arts world!” Wanqi Jue was no different than a dead person in Wanqi Yun’s eyes, and because of that he was thinking further into the future. With Wanqi Jue dead, Wanqi Yun would be relying on the leader in the future. Being able to raise a good suggestion now and curry favor with the leader, coupled together with the favor that he had gotten due to the Seal of Inheritance, how could he not have a good life waiting for him?

More importantly, the higher the authority England had in the Special Forces world, then his own position would naturally be higher too. The resources he would be able to get would also increase, and once the qualifying tournament came around this year, he would surely get famous!

With these thoughts in his mind, Wanqi Jue followed behind the leader as they went to look for Wanqi Jue.

***

In the Wanqi house, Wanqi Jue was sitting in the garden. Opposite him, a middle-aged man sat. “Boss Bai, I really admire the strength of your subordinates.”

The admiration was clear on Wanqi Jue’s face, as well as shock. Although Boss Bai and his people were all regular people, the strength that they all had demonstrated had been acknowledged by the Wanqi family, and even himself.

“It’s all because of Miss Gu’s remarkable abilities,” Boss Bai said with a light smile on his face.

The reason they were here was to rescue the people from the Wanqi family, and now that their purpose had been achieved, it was only natural for them to return.

“Take me with you, Boss Bai!” Xixi suddenly flew out from the house, landing on Boss Bai’s shoulder.

Boss Bai’s eyes widened, and he said with a solemn expression, “Master Xixi, you can’t leave yet.”

Xixi’s head drooped after hearing those words, looking dejected as though he was not loved at all.

Wanqi Jue glanced at Xixi, then took out a generous gift, and Boss Bai accepted it without any further words.

Boss Bai didn’t refuse, because although they weren’t wanting for money in the Bai gang, he didn’t want to reject Wanqi Jue’s good intentions.

“Master, bad news! The traitor Wanqi Yun has come with the leader!” A young man from the Wanqi family ran into the garden suddenly, a panicked expression on his face. “The leader… the leader has the Seal of Inheritance of the Wanqi family!”

Wanqi Jue, who initially still had a smile on his face was instantly alarmed, the friendly expression on his face vanis.h.i.+ng. “What did you say?!”

The young man repeated it again, and glanced at Boss Bai with wide eyes. “Those juniors have already been taken to the bas.e.m.e.nt.”

The bas.e.m.e.nt was a room that Boss Bai and his people had dug with their own hands, and the Wanqi family had been confused at the beginning, as to what the purpose of the room was for. After finding out that Wanqi Yun couldn’t even penetrate the room, they came to know how terrifying the room was.

Especially today when Wanqi Yun’s sudden arrival, they were ushered into the bas.e.m.e.nt one by one by Boss Bai’s people.

Wanqi Yun had arrived unexpectedly, but the people that Boss Bai had brought weren’t panicked at all, bringing the Wanqi family people into the bas.e.m.e.nt in a calm manner. If someone had told them that Boss Bai wasn’t aware that Wanqi Yun was coming today, no one would believe it!

Wanqi Jue was already aware of Gu Xiqiao’s capabilities, and he no longer felt that anything could surprise him anymore, so he walked out the door. Outside, Boss Bai’s regular people were gathered. None of them had left, and there was no fear on their faces, but in fact, there was antic.i.p.ation in it?

Wanqi Jue knew that they weren’t aware of the horror that was the Seal of Inheritance, so he tried to explain, “… The leader is here for me today. Hurry and go into the bas.e.m.e.nt, I’m unable to fight against the Seal of Inheritance, and I won’t be able to make sure you all are unscathed.”

“It’s fine, we’ll just watch the show.” Boss Bai said as he laughed lightly. “Just do as you normally do.”

Wanqi Jue opened his mouth to say something else, but something dark pa.s.sed over his head and he looked up, his eyes widening.

There was a sudden pressure in the area.

Bang!

The black Seal of Inheritance fell right in front of Wanqi Jue, and dust rose up all around them.

The sudden pressure around the place made Wanqi Jue feel like ten thousand tons on his shoulder, and his legs were buckling under it, and beads of sweat rolled down his face.

Wanqi Jue took painful steps towards the Seal of Inheritance, leaving a deeper imprint in the ground after each step. He reached out both hands to pick up the seal of inheritance, although his strong mental power helped him resist the spiritual power of the seal, the seal itself remained unmoved.

“Wanqi Jue, you actually want to move the Seal of Inheritance?” A sneer came from the top of his head suddenly. “The Seal of Inheritance is heaven’s will, and apart from its master, no one will be able to shake it at all.”

Wanqi Jue raised his eyes and saw Wanqi Yun and the leader looking at him, with mocking eyes as though they were looking at an insect that they could easily crush.

“Although I can’t move the Seal of Inheritance, you can’t kill me either!” Wanqi Jue shouted, letting go of the seal suddenly.

He knew that Wanqi Yun’s words were right. Apart from its master, there was no one else in the world that could move the seal of inheritance. That was how strong heaven’s will was in the world.

But, did they really think that he had no other ways of preserving his own life?

In order to kill him, the leader would need to enforce all the power he had in the power world, otherwise, don’t even dream of it!

Wanqi Yun had yet to respond when the leader made his move first. He waved his finger slightly, and the seal retracted, shrinking in size before returning to his palm. His gaze was still on Wanqi Jue, and then turning to see Boss Bai and his people behind him. “Whether I will be able to kill you or not is one thing, but I can kill all the other people behind you with just a thought!”

“You dare?!” Wanqi Jue spat fiercely, glaring at the leader.

The leader laughed coldly, not deigning to respond to Wanqi Jue’s words. The seal of inheritance in his fingers already flying towards the s.p.a.ce above the heads of Boss Bai and his people.

Xixi, who was on Boss Bai’s shoulder saw the seal flying above their heads and its body enlarged suddenly. As it grew, a mighty power that was comparable to the Seal of Inheritance burst forth from it. Xixi raised its head upwards, letting out a deafening scream.

The sudden appearance of the bird led to the leader letting out a startled gasp, but there was no mercy in his mind as he forced more power into the seal. Under heaven’s will, how long could this bird last?

Under such a threathening force, Wanqi Jue watched Boss Bai and the others who were under the protection of the red bird, bloodl.u.s.t seeping into his eyes, the chi in his body rising bit by bit. The leader and Wanqi Yun who were so focused on the Seal of Inheritance, didn’t notice the change in him at all.

Wanqi Jue’s consciousness was fading in and out, but he felt the power in his body rising, hurry, just a bit faster…

“Xixi!” He heard Boss Bai’s shout, and Wanqi Jue’s eyes were blood red.

The leader looked at the bird that was thrown to the ground, where it had returned to its smaller size. He could feel the power in the Seal of Inheritance, and the world really was now within his hands. He could already imagine the countless people kneeling in front of him, under his feet and rule.

“Go, Seal of Inheritance.” With a wave of his hands, the seal slowly pressed down on Boss Bai and his people.

At this moment, Xixi, who had been lying on the ground suddenly jumped up and shouted, “Beauty Qiao, if you continue to just watch the show by the sidelines, I’m going to break up with you!”

Beauty Qiao? The leader and Wanqi Yun were shocked. There was another person in the area, and they didn’t feel her presence at all?

Just when the two were looking around for this ‘Beauty Qiao’, they suddenly heard a voice.

“Don’t be like that Xixi, I just wanted to see what the h*ll was this Seal of Inheritance.” The air fluctuated for a moment, and then a pale figure appeared in front of them. Her jet-black hair rippled like mist, her cold face seemingly carved from jade reflected the sun rays, a jaw-dropping beauty that stunned everyone who looked at her.

They watched as the figure walked forward, grabbing the Seal of Inheritance with her bare hands. Her slender white fingers contrasted against the black seal.

The legendary Seal of Inheritance that was said to not acknowledge or bend to anyone else’s’ will except its master, suddenly lay on her palm obediently. “Huh, it isn’t anything much, it is?”

As the leader and Wanqi Yun watched this scene unfold in front of them, the word ‘shocking’ was not sufficient to describe their feelings. How could the Seal of Inheritance be controlled by another’s hands, that even the leader, who was the master of the seal, was not able to recall it!

“Beauty Qiao, stop this nonsense. Hurry and avenge me!” Xixi stood on trembling feet, obviously heavily injured.

Gu Xiqiao shot Xixi a look, and smiled suddenly. Turning her head, her eyes fell on the leader and Wanqi Yun. The seal flew over to the two.

“You can’t do this, I’m the leader of England…”

Before he could finish his words, the two of them were crushed under the Seal of Inheritance, deader than dead.

Boss Bai and his people, who were still behind Wanqi Jue, could only watch this person standing in the yard, amazement clear in their eyes.
