Chapter 1550: Took Leave
Chapter 1550: Took Leave
Took Leave . . .
Cha Yunduan smiled and said, "At this moment, my life is in your hands. You control me, and you control my men. He won't disobey you. No matter how much he hates to do it, he will. Brother Cha, you must understand though. You can't always have my life in your hands. When things are out of your control, you won't like it."
"Perhaps, you don't care. You can ignore it. Is the Monarch's Hall going to ignore it?"
Cha Yunduan was frank, and he said, "So please give it a second thought."
Cha-Eun Xiao stayed quiet for a while. He then looked at Meng Youjiang and Rong Ke'er.
Meng Youjiang tried to stay spirited and then said in a deep voice, "I am fine. I will follow no matter what decision you make."
Cha-Eun Xiao stayed silent again.
Cha Yunduan was glad, so he added, "Monarch Cha, listen. I will give your man a bottle of dan beads. That is a secret formula of my clan. There are three dan beads in one bottle, each of which can save a man from death one time. I will also give you a hundred thousand purple spirit coins as compensation for what my man did. I am sure this horrible accident has created a barrier on your man's path of cultivation. I promise, whenever he needs help, he will get it from the Great Cha Clan! We will use our special technique to help him get a breakthrough!"
Cha Yunduan looked so sincere. He then continued, "Monarch Cha, I think these are enough to show my sincerity. If you are still unsatisfied, just tell me what you want. I will do my best… All I am asking is not to let my man kneel!"
"It is a man's dignity!"
Cha Yunduan said, "Please, Monarch Cha."
The skinny and tall guard was shocked. He was emotional. "Master!"
He obviously didn't know that his master would pay such a big price to keep him from being humiliated, so he was moved.
"I started all of this. If I didn't make such a reckless move, things wouldn't be this difficult." Cha Yunduan paused and said, "I will wait for your decision."
"Thank you so much, master!" The skinny man knelt down.
Cha-Eun Xiao coldly smiled.
Cha Yunduan played well in this.
First of all, he would like to pay that much to buy his man's loyalty. After this, the skinny guard would be absolutely loyal to him and die for him. Second, if Cha-Eun Xiao accepted the terms, he would have to send Erhuo back, and Cha Yunduan would be free. At last, Cha Yunduan was doing all this for Meng Youjiang, not for Cha-Eun Xiao.
If Cha-Eun Xiao refused it, he would keep Meng Youjiang from getting a great profit, and the chance to have a breakthrough!
Cha-Eun Xiao thought even deeper than that. Cha Yunduan had sent a message to everybody. 'I care for my man! I can give up that much for just a guard of mine, so how could I mistreat any of my followers!'
'If you join me, I will do the same for you!'
That was his strategy.
Cha Yunduan's life was in Cha-Eun Xiao's hands, yet he could still make such a brilliant move. He had said several things but never asked to be let go of. That was clever.
Cha-Eun Xiao was angry, but he had to admit that this descendant of the Great Cha Clan was incredible! He had power, schemes, and grace!
"Why not?" Cha-Eun Xiao smiled and said, "Please, keep your word, Master Cha."
…
After a while, Meng Youjiang stood up. He was completely cured.
Cha Yunduan had helped him a lot, but Cha-Eun Xiao's dan bead also made a big difference. That was why Meng Youjiang could be well again in such a short time. The Hall of Life and Death had given treatments to a lot of people during those days, who got injured differently. Erhuo had developed many new dan beads. The dan bead Meng Youjiang got from Cha-Eun Xiao was great at curing injuries. Without Cha Yunduan's help, Meng Youjiang wouldn't be well so soon, but he would be fine sooner or later!
However, since Cha Yunduan was willing to help, why should they refuse?
As Meng Youjiang became well again, things weren't so intense anymore.
Cha-Eun Xiao called for Erhuo, and the cat left Cha Yunduan's shoulder.
Nobody saw how it moved. That was unbelievably fast. If these people didn't see it with their own eyes, they couldn't believe a cat could be that fast.
"Now, it is done. Problem solved. We can talk about serious business. We came here for a reason after all." Cha Yunduan touched his throat, and his face looked colorless. He was bleeding.
"I will keep the scar on my neck." Cha Yunduan softly smiled and said, "It will remind me of what happened when I was careless. If anybody gets to do this to me again, I must be an idiot."
Cha-Eun Xiao blandly said, "Master Cha, you are an incredible man indeed, who always learned from his own failure."
"Life is full of surprises. There is always something I should learn." Cha Yunduan said, "You have spoken for yourself, and you are right. We won't take the Monarch's Hall from you, but we will take the seven clans back."
"Everybody has his own thoughts. I won't stop anybody who wants to leave. If anybody wants to stay, I can't kick them out either." Cha-Eun Xiao said.
"Thank you, Monarch Cha." Cha-Eun Xiao slightly nodded.
The two of them started to look at the four old men and the men behind the old masters' back. They had gathered together now. These people were elites of the four clans, and now they felt it was difficult to make the decision.
"What are you thinking? Come on! The Seven Golden Lotuses must stay together!" The chief of the Qin Clan shouted and said to the four old masters. "You idiots! Are you going to keep being stupid?"
Master Yun made a sigh first and then waved his hand. "Let's go then!"
