Chapter 281: Chapter 281 Dragon King Calms His Anger!

”Where did you get this Jade Pendant?!”

Qin Tian bellowed, his expression suddenly stern as he stared at Qiuniang, his gaze instantly revealing a thick intent to kill!

Hoo hoo!

The cold wind howled, and the temperature around them plummeted!

Standing a few meters away from Qin Tian, Mu Yunxi could feel the killing aura emanating from him, her expression slightly changing as well!

This killing aura was fearsome!

Even more bone-chilling than the killing aura emitted by Mu Yunxi herself!

Is this... the legendary Dragon Soul, Dragon King?

Mu Yunxi’s dark eyes looked at the furious Qin Tian, her mind pondering.

At this moment, Qin Tian naturally did not notice Mu Yunxi’s gaze; all his attention was focused on the Butterfly Jade Pendant in Qiuniang’s hand!

Hoo hoo!

In the evening breeze, Qin Tian’s figure flashed, and he instantly appeared in front of Qiuniang. By the time Qiuniang realized what was happening, she only felt a numbness in her arm, and the Butterfly Jade Pendant was easily snatched by Qin Tian in the blink of an eye!

Hiss!

Qiuniang gasped in cold air, her face, smooth as jade, instantly turning pale!

Such skill was simply beastly!

She looked at Qin Tian in utter silence, her breathing heavy!

The leader of the Dragon Soul, the Dragon King Qin Tian, was better seen than heard; with such skill, he could easily kill her!

Thinking back to how she was putting on airs in front of Qin Tian just now, Qiuniang found it laughably embarrassing—it was like brandishing a broadsword before Guan Yu, utterly shameless!

”Tell me, have you ever met the owner of this Jade Pendant? Where is she now?”

Standing in front of Qiuniang, Qin Tian’s expression was extremely serious, and even his speech became abnormally excited.

Around them, the killing aura spread, causing Qiuniang, who had seen her share of grand scenes, to feel a bone-chilling, suffocating fear!

A suffocation that made one’s legs go weak!

Even Mu Yunxi standing by felt somewhat tense. Qin Tian’s expression now completely differed from the relaxed, smiling face he usually showed her.

A complete transformation, as if he was a different person!

”The owner of that Jade Pendant, she must be really important to him... But who exactly is she...?”

Although Mu Yunxi’s face showed no change, curiosity had already risen in her heart.

”Dragon King... Dragon King, calm your anger...”

Facing the formidable Qin Tian, Qiuniang felt a bone-chilling terror for the first time, even more so than when she met the Sect Leader of the Three Poison Sect, Du Tianxie!

”Dragon King... this jade pendant was given to me by Miss Tang Wan. I absolutely have not harmed her... I swear... nor will I ever harm her,” Qiuniang said, trembling.

”Hmph, you had better be telling the truth!”

In Qin Tian’s eyes, it was as if light was about to burst forth. He said angrily, ”This jade pendant is a personal belonging of the girl, treasured and never leaving her side. How did it end up with you? Did she give it to you willingly? Do you know her?”

A series of questions left the nervous and frightened Qiuniang unsure of where to begin. She could only panic, her eyes reddening as she wept, ”Dragon King... please let me finish. This jade pendant, truly, was given to me by Miss Tang Wan. I swear!”

Seeing Qin Tian’s skeptical look, Qiuniang continued, ”It was about half a year ago. We encountered Miss Tang Wan while she was collecting herbs on Nanshan. At that moment, my men wanted to kidnap her, and indeed, I also harbored the intention of taking her.”

”After we brought Miss Tang Wan back to our camp on Nanshan, my men wanted to dishonor her, but she stopped them. I initially did not want to interfere with such matters, but then Miss Tang Wan mentioned your name, and also, she said we were all sick!”

”At that moment, my men and I were stunned because indeed, each one of us was sick with a severe poisoning. We had to obtain the antidote from the Sect Leader every month to alleviate the poison, or else each of us would die agonizingly from full-body pain.”

”I think you might have heard of our Sect Leader’s character, Dragon King. To control the members of the Three Poison Sect, he had each subordinate take poison, myself included.”

”When Miss Tang Wan said we were sick and then described the symptoms of our poisoning, my men and I were shocked. Thus, I made a decisive decision, treating Miss Tang Wan well, and my men even knelt before her, begging her to help cure us.”

”Miss Tang Wan was kind-hearted and didn’t hold our previous rudeness against her. She agreed to help cure us.”

”She stayed in our Nanshan camp for a whole half month and utilized her profound medical skills to truly cure everyone. My men and I were grateful to her, offering to collect herbs for her, give her money, but she wanted nothing, only making one condition.”

”At that time, we had four girls in our Nanshan camp who had been kidnapped to be sold overseas. Miss Tang Wan had met them once, so the kind and benevolent Miss Tang Wan proposed that we release these four girls.”

”I hesitated for a long time, saying that the girls had already been ordered by someone for a total of one million. If we released them, we couldn’t explain it to the Sect Leader... Indeed, I did not want to let them go at that time.”

”Unexpectedly, at this moment, Miss Tang Wan took out two jade pendants she carried with her, one of which was a heart-shaped jade pendant, quite ordinary and possibly worth only a few hundred yuan; the other jade pendant was this butterfly jade pendant.”

”Miss Tang Wan unhesitatingly gave me the butterfly jade pendant, saying it was to redeem those four girls. As soon as I saw this butterfly jade pendant, I knew it was worth a fortune. So at that moment, I intended to agree, but then I had a change of heart. Having spent half a month with Miss Tang Wan, I truly... had been transformed by her kindness. Thinking of how she had cured our poisoning and saved our lives...”

”So, at that moment, I rejected Miss Tang Wan’s condition, saying I didn’t want the jade pendant, and I would release the people. At that time, I thought, this amount of over a million yuan, I could just pay it myself. But when Miss Tang Wan saw my refusal, she didn’t give up and insisted on giving me the jade pendant.”

”At that time, I asked for the heart-shaped jade pendant, thinking it was just a very ordinary piece of jade worth a few hundred yuan. By symbolically accepting something, Miss Tang Wan would no longer insist. But unexpectedly, Miss Tang Wan cherished that heart-shaped jade pendant as a treasure and preferred to give me the butterfly jade pendant worth several million yuan rather than the heart-shaped one worth a few hundred yuan...”

”We were at an impasse for a long time; finally, I could only accept Miss Tang Wan’s butterfly jade pendant. But later, I myself turned in one million yuan. This jade pendant I have always kept, and in my heart, I truly had come to think of Miss Tang Wan as a friend; Dragon King, I swear, I definitely did not harm a hair on Miss Tang Wan’s head, knowing she was your sister. I could never lay a finger on her...”

Qin Tian looked indifferently at the speaking Qiuniang, knowing that this woman had not lied.

At least, Qiuniang had met Tang Wan and knew some of her stories.

Otherwise, she could not possibly have known about the heart-shaped jade pendant.

Heart-shaped Jade Pendant—

It was the fifteenth birthday gift that Qin Tian had given to Tang Wan!
