71 Wind Beats Lightning and Water beats Fire

WuXia "But, would they stoop so low to try to steal her techniques?"

Jiang Chen "WuHen entered the sect, when she didn't even enter Martial Disciple realm."

Jiang Chen " Xue family is already in panic right now. First, you have gone out of their control. You have been their top priority ,to suppress and use you as a bargaining chip for greater benefits."

Jiang Chen "Not only did they fail to do it. But,you turned out even more powerful than they can imagine."

Jiang Chen "If there is any one, who can fight me in equal grounds in this peak it is only you."

WuXia "That is already established."

Jiang Chen "Xue family very well know, what they did to you. You are one of the top figures already in the sect. You only weak spot is WuHen. So, for them to control you back, they need a leverage."

Jiang Chen "They already have your father. You seem indifferent about him.But is not the case with WuHen."

WuHen also understood this" But ,Brother Jiang he is my father."

Jiang Chen "I know, but for them he is just a leverage. His value is only till, the time you are valuable to them."

Jiang Chen "Once, you value fells to zero his life will be lost anyhow."

Jiang Chen "There are few situations you should never fell to. This is one of them."

Jiang Chen "I was thinking, we avoided situations, but they are restarted."

WuXia "What happened?"

Jiang Chen "Morning, I could sense hostile gauges from multiple individuals."

Jiang Chen "Previously, Xie Yang gave strict instructions to his members, that they should not get tangled with our side. But, I sensed severe hostility from his side. Xue family is there too. Han family."

WuXia "I could sense too. Yesterday, you sent Ning'er to address something ?"

Ning'er "I tried to warn Xie Ming, to not attempt to make Jiang Chen enemy. I also told her that Xie Yang would make a move on Jiang Chen sooner, she can gain from it."

WuXia "What was the need for it?"

Jiang Chen "That was just a precaution measure. Yesterday she sent a member of her group to ask Ning'er to leave me and to court Xie Chen."

WuXia "Really gutsy. But is Xie Chen really interested in Ning'er."

Ning'er gave a questioning glaze at WuXia 'what do you mean by that?'

WuXia "Everyone knows, you and Jiang Chen are engaged, who would dare to snatch her from you."

Ning'er "That is exactly what it is. Double trap, she wants to instigate Jiang Chen, against her family members. She would then come as perfect girl and try to help Jiang Chen solve the situation, possibly trying to court him. "

WuXia "Isn't is farfetched?"

Jiang Chen " She is too obvious. But, she was smart enough to understand, that she can't control me. She changed her tactics to hurting LingRou and frame Xie Yang."

WuXia "Hmm.Even you face similar situation?"

Jiang Chen "That is common. Our present major threats are Xie Yang, Xue Long and Han Family."

Jiang Chen "Bai Mo was approached by Han family. Xue Long's target is WuXia. If WuXia was on his side, he was half sure he can rule our peak. Xie Yang he was cautious enough to avoid me, but I don't know why he suddenly changed,his hostility was quite evident today morning."

WuXia "At present our faction is the strongest, with both of us in helm, no one should be our opponent."

Jiang Chen "But, main problem is both of us in one side.It is not acceptable to anyone."

WuXia "All the males want me and females want you." she said sarcastically.

Same time Meera knocked the door.

Meera "Young Master, young master Xie Yang is here to meet you."

Jiang Chen "What happened he is such rush?" everyone were confused and shocked.

WuXia "He is making his move too early, I don't think Xie Yang is that foolish."

WuXia "Except Ha Ling we all will leave."

Soon they left from other side of courtyard.

Ha Ling and Jiang Chen were the only ones left in the courtyard.

Ha Ling "It has only been a day, since we came to sect and already things are rocky."

Jiang Chen "Lets see?"

Xie Yang came after couple of minutes. He saw both Jiang Chen and Ha Ling sitting in the courtyard sipping tea.

Jiang Chen "Brother Yang, what an unexpected visit."

Xie Yang was not trying to hide his attitude.

Xie Yang " I have an important matter to discuss with you. "

Jiang Chen "What is there to rush , there are always matters of importance. Have some tea, my maid makes very good tea."

Xie Yang "Then I will have to taste it, that brother Jiang places in high regards."

Meera who was there served some tea to Xie Yang and then slowly left the courtyard.

Ha Ling "So, brother Yang tell us ,what is that important matter that you want to discuss with us."

Xie Yang "I am sure brother Jiang is no fool, you have grabbed too much attention already. You already know you are a hot candidate fro recruitment."

Jiang Chen "I am not interested in any recruitment." Jiang Chen didn't expect such a thing to come directly. Which fool would come this way directly.

Xie Yang then chuckled "I know you would say that. But, I would ask brother to reconsider it."

Jiang Chen "Why is that?"

Xie Yang " I have heard that you have formed a deal with Xie Ming."

Jiang Chen "I did, I was clear with her about it. She needed ten Perfect grade weapons. It was for price."

Xie Yang didn't know about anything,he just wanted to test the waters.

Xie Yang "By helping Xie Ming you would be opposing me. You understand that right."

Jiang Chen "I don't care about that, she made a good deal just for few weapons. I can do my trade freely."

Xie Yang "Hmm. Since you are already getting involved why that bitch, I have many better things to offer you."

Jiang Chen "What will I get? " Jiang Chen asked curiously.

Xie Yang "I will become the future patriarch of Xie family. You will get a good position ,I can provide you all kind of resources."

Jiang Chen "Is that so? What resources would I need? Weapons. I can make them. Pills, I concoct them. Martial Techniques I have them, I also can create them. Hmm other small things I can get them myself."

Xie Yang "Brother Jiang, you think you are great just because you are better than few people."

Xie Yang "You haven't seen the immensity of heavens at all. You have everything you want, but can you step out of the sect freely."

Xie Yang "The world outside is controlled by my Xie family. You will not get anything if I say so."

Jiang Chen "Are you threatening me?" Jiang Chen said furiously.

Xie Yang "Do ,you believe you and WuXia are only ones who learnt weapon skills."

Xie Yang "I am also an expert in using sword skills. I have learnt a sword skill called Thousand battles."

Jiang Chen "Good battle skill. You think you can subdue me because of that skill."

Xie Yang "Why not? Wind beats Lightning and Water beats fire."

Jiang Chen "Oh!"

Xie Yang "There is no Jiang family to support you, how do you think you will cope in this martial world."

Xie Yang " You have already made enemies with Han family, Ning family soon it would be Xue family."

Xie Yang "Han family is so adamant about killing you. Ning family already sent few members here to take you into custody."

Xie Yang "They will be arriving here sooner."

Xie Yang "Han family has already positioned few people outside the sect, to deal with you when ever they see you. Now, I can make Xie family your enemy too."

Xie Yang "So,what I am offering is pretty good for you. You just have to serve as my right hand man and you should also avoid Xue WuXia. Your life would be very simple."

Jiang Chen just chuckled hearing this.

Jiang Chen "You seem to be pretty confident on what you offered?"

Xie Yang "Ha Ha why will I not be?"

Jiang Chen "Because, you are not the only one who can offer this. Sai Family can also help me pretty much, I would just owe them a favor once. Also Xie Ming and Xie Chen they also have almost similar authority as you. Why would I need to be your Hench men for that. Already your sister is interested to be my woman."

Jiang Chen "Also my enemies are not just people you mentioned. I have already made lot enemies and will make lot more in future. You can't handle this."

Jiang Chen "Get Lost."

Xie Yang "I will see where you are getting that confidence from?"

Jiang Chen "You want to know? I haven't kept anyone alive. who even came to know quarter of my strength."

Jiang Chen "Since you are pretty confident .Why not have a spar on the stage, before everyone. You said Wind Beats Lightning and Water beats fire. Also, you have some battle technique too."

Jiang Chen chuckled "I already know you don't have courage to do so. I am just curious what made you so foolish to attempt to recruit me, when you were clearly shit scared of me. I just want to know, the real reason."
