God Emperor

”Stop! ”

The two of them immediately stopped in their tracks amidst Zhang Ruochen ’s order.

The nine shadows on the left superimposed on each other, forming Zhang Ruochen ’s body.

Similarly, the nine shadows on the right superimposed on each other and formed Han Qiu ’s body.

Han Qiu was still immersed in the intricacies of the array. And thus, she was very confused when Zhang Ruochen called for a stop. She asked, ”Why did we stop? Didn ’t we do that perfectly? ”

”Perfect? ”

Zhang Ruochen said, ”You think that is perfect? We had no tacit understanding at all. The eighteen shadows ’ sword techniques were completely disjointed, and our Sword Comprehension couldn ’t connect as well. We failed to perform the true form of the Yin-Yang Two Forms Sword Array, let alone arouse the heaven and earth ’s Spiritual Qi. ”

Feeling a bit annoyed, Han Qiu said, ”Am I the one to blame for not having a tacit understanding? You ’ve never thought of me as your friend and are always on guard. How can we build a tacit understanding when you carry such attitude?

I ’m very curious to know why you are so hostile to me? I ’ve never done anything to you. Instead, I ’ve always tried to be friendly. ”

Zhang Ruochen was silent for a moment, and then he said, ”If I really do have such hostility toward you, I wouldn ’t have saved you in the first place. ”

”Then why? Is it because of… Zhang Tiangui? ” asked Han Qiu.

Not denying her statement, Zhang Ruochen replied, ”Yes. Clever as you are, you must have noticed that Zhang Tiangui and I are already as incompatible as fire is to water. Our fight is inevitable. How can I let my guard down when you ’re his junior sister apprentice? ”

Han Qiu said, sighing, ”I noticed that something was wrong between you two when we were in Yunwu City. But I didn ’t know it was so serious.

Perhaps Zhang Tiangui has done something wrong. But overall, he is a good person. Not only is he talented and honest, he also treats everyone nicely. If there really is a tension between you two, I can act as an intermediary and resolve it for you. After all, you are brothers. ”

Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, ”There are some things that are better left unsaid. One day, you ’ll understand. There is no such thing as brothers in the Royal Family. Well, this is our personal matter. You needn ’t worry about this! ”

Han Qiu stared fixedly at Zhang Ruochen ’s eyes as if she wanted to read his mind. She thought to herself, ”Maybe Zhang Tiangui had done something awful to Zhang Ruochen? Was it so awful that there ’s no room for reconciliation? ”
