Chapter 5742 Cutting off the Past

The tattered waterwheel was thrown in front of Shui Qizhen and his son, left to be watched by the Shui clan's high-ranking officials.

Looking at the miserable appearance of the water truck, some people subconsciously wanted to step forward and help him up.

"You, who are you?"

Some people couldn't help swallowing their saliva when they saw this situation, and questioned Zhang Yifeng in a serious voice.

The scene became a little chaotic for a moment, but Zhang Yifeng remained indifferent and just looked at Shui Qizhen quietly.

"Thank you sir."

Shui Qizhen took a deep breath and realized that it was time to make the final decision.

He first raised his hand to stop those who wanted to help lift the waterwheel, and then shouted loudly: "Stop it, Mr. Zhang is the real benefactor of our Shui clan."

"If it weren't for Mr. Zhang, I'm afraid our Shui clan would have become a victim of this Shuiche's ambitions."

"And you all are just paralyzed by the disguised appearance of the waterwheel."

After Shui Qizhen finished speaking, his eyes swept over everyone in the Shui clan.

His majesty as the head of the clan was fully displayed at this moment.

After hearing Shui Qizhen's words, everyone stopped and dared not approach the waterwheel anymore.

Those who had just questioned Zhang Yifeng's identity also shut their mouths.

Seeing this, Zhang Yifeng moved his fingertips, and a gust of spiritual wind swept the waterwheel men in the room out and threw them to the ground.

As the spiritual wind moved, the hoods on these people's faces were pulled off, revealing their true faces.

The Shui clan members nearby immediately recognized these people. They were the young members of the clan whose strength had grown by leaps and bounds in recent years.

"These people were bewitched by the evil power of the devil in his body and obeyed his orders."

"Now I have eradicated the evil power of the devil in their bodies, and they have returned to normal."

After Zhang Yifeng finished speaking, these people slowly opened their eyes and stood up from the ground with a confused look on their faces.

Looking at the waterwheel that was knocked to the ground, several people were stunned at the same time, and then anger rose in their eyes.

"Damn it, he made us do so many dirty things!"

One man roared, and was about to rush over and chop the waterwheel to pieces with one blow.

Shui Qi was really quick-witted and had them under control.

"Now, you should understand that what I said before is not fiction, right?"

Shui Qizhen pointed at the dying waterwheel on the ground and said in a deep voice.

The people around him all looked incredulous when they heard this, and it took them a long time to calm down.

"Xuan'er, since this matter was caused by you, it is up to you to put an end to it."

After sweeping his stern eyes over everyone present, Shui Qizhen called Shui Xuan to his side and handed him the long sword in his hand.

Shui Xuan subconsciously took the long knife and looked at the dying water wheel on the ground with a complicated expression.

"Hahahaha, the winner takes it all, let's get started."

Shuiche laughed loudly, but did not say a word to defend himself at the moment of his death.

"Although you have been hypocritical in the past, I truly regard you as a brother in my heart."

"If you have a chance in your next life, repent."

Shui Xuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The moment he opened his eyes, he slashed with his sword, and blood splattered.

Putting down the long sword in his hand, Shui Xuan felt a sense of loss.

The people around looked at the decapitated body on the ground, and there was a flash of regret in their eyes.

If Shuiche can use his abilities for the right purpose, he will become a great help to the Shui clan in the future.

Even with his status as a close friend of the young clan leader, it is not impossible for him to control half of the Shui clan in the future.

As a result, because of one's own selfish desires, this is the outcome today.

"Chief of the Water Tribe, I have solved the hidden dangers of your clan for you. What did you promise me before?"

Zhang Yifeng's eyes moved slightly, he walked in front of Shui Qizhen and asked in a calm voice.

"Don't worry, sir."

Shui Qizhen nodded heavily. He would naturally never forget Zhang Yifeng's kindness.

He took something out of his arms and handed it to Zhang Yifeng.

It was the token of the Water Clan, a water-blue token.

As soon as the token was in his hand, it quickly turned into a stream of light and penetrated into the mark on the back of Zhang Yifeng's hand.

Instantly, the engraved light became brighter, and there was another mark.

According to his speculation, he only needs to obtain one more token to pass this trial.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a plop and couldn't help but look up.

Shui Xuan was kneeling in front of Shui Xin with his head down, and he said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you before."

"I won't blame all this on the water truck. Ultimately, it was my lack of trust in you that led to all this."

"From today on, I am willing to give you the position of young clan leader. You will lead the future of the Water Clan!"

Shui Xuan shouted loudly and kowtowed heavily to Shui Xin.

"No, Young Clan Leader."

"Yes, the position of young patriarch is very important, how can we give it up so easily?"

When the elders around heard this, they rushed forward to dissuade him.

Now they have realized that they had fallen into Shui Che's trap of sowing discord, and they have regained their former good impression of Shui Xuan, the young patriarch.

Hearing that Shui Xuan was going to give up the position of young clan leader so easily, he immediately spoke out to dissuade him.

However, Shui Xuan looked determined and wanted to pay for the trauma caused by his previous bad behavior.

"Brother Xuan, I accept your bow."

"But I am well aware of your abilities. Under your governance, the Water Clan will have a better tomorrow."

"So I won't accept your request. If you really feel guilty towards me, then let this incident teach you a lesson."

"To enable the future Water Clan to flourish is the best consolation for me."

Shui Xin stared for a while and then spoke slowly with a smile on her lips. She raised her hand and helped Shui Xuan up.

Even though he almost died on the grassland before, he did not hold any grudge against Shui Xuan.

Shui Qizhen, who had been silent for a long time, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.

What he feared most was that after this incident, Shui Xuan and Shui Xin would both have grudges in their hearts.

But at this moment, seeing the two of them open their hearts and express their feelings for each other without any hindrance was enough to prove that he was thinking too much.

Hearing Shui Xin's words, Shui Xuan's expression kept changing, and finally he took a deep breath.

"I promise that I will never make the same mistake again."

Shui Xuan looked up at the night sky and assured in a serious tone.

Seeing this, everyone around nodded in agreement.

However, in this peaceful scene, Zhang Yifeng slowly walked towards the city gate of the Shui clan.

Now that the matter is over, there is no need for him to stay here any longer.

The most urgent task is to find the last piece of the engraved puzzle, which will bring him one step closer to the inheritance of the Ancient Immortal Emperor.

"Wait, Mr. Zhang."
