"Kid, don't mess around!" Consort Qian was speechless.
If she could kidnap the bride, then she might as well cancel the marriage. The Qian Clan's influence might be a little stronger than the Wu Clan, but martial artists and great clans could not break their promises. A man could not stand without his word, and clans were even more so.
"How is this messing around? You haven't married yet. I like you, so I will fight for you. Why are you worrying so much? Everyone has the right to pursue happiness, especially marriage. Why must we listen to other people's arrangements?" Qinchuan smiled and said with a serious expression.
"I don't like you. Besides, you can't let the family break their promise because of me." Consort Qian frowned.
"Strength is everything. Who said we broke our promise? It was just an engagement, not a marriage. So many people separate every day, and so many divorce. Why do we have to make ourselves suffer?"
"You don't understand. It's not easy for a person or a family to survive. It's said that the more you gain, the more you'll lose. The children of big families have been living extravagantly since they were young, but they can't make their own decisions when it comes to marriage. Not to mention the South Sea City, it's the same even in bigger cities and bigger families." Qian Fei smiled bitterly.
Qinchuan actually understood, but he didn't like it.
Old Master Qian looked at Qinchuan. It was good to be young. Unfortunately, Qian family hadn't reached the level where they could do whatever they wanted in South Sea City. Otherwise, they wouldn't have to Consort Qian.
…
After leaving the Qian Clan, although Qian Fei's matter wasn't very happy, Qin Chuan's matter was resolved. With the Qian Clan's old man's help, the elders usually wouldn't make a move. Furthermore, if they couldn't kill Qin Chuan, then after ten years or ten years, their clan would definitely disappear. No one would take this risk, and there was no need to take this risk.
If Qin Chuan had the strength now, he could help his father recover. If he had the strength, he could help his aunt. If he had the strength, he could find his mother. If he had the strength, he could help Qian Fei.
The path of the Martial Dao was difficult and bumpy. It was to pry into the Heavenly Dao and transform fortune. The path forward was like walking on thin ice, and the slightest carelessness would cause one to stop or even die horribly.
Qinchuan had already received two inheritances. As long as he progressed on the path of martial arts, he would be able to make a name for himself in the future. However, this process was still full of twists and turns.
…
Pa!
Qinchuan opened his eyes and a faint smile appeared on his face. He had broken through to the eighth grade of the Martial Path.
Qinchuan heaved a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't someone surpassing the tenth rank, he could at least stay alive.
When they got back, it was still early. Su He and the little girl were doing morning exercises. Su He's posture was very good, and her set of boxing techniques was very pleasing to the eye.
Although Sun Baobao was still young, she learned things very quickly. She was also good at fighting. If there was anything wrong, Qinchuan would go over and teach the little girl step by step.
After spending more than a month together, everyone was familiar with each other. The inheritance of the Golden God Eye came from Old Sun. Although it was bought, Qinchuan was still grateful. No matter what, he had to repay them.
"Sister Su, are you interested in learning medicinal cuisine and medicine?" Qinchuan thought about it and asked.
Su He looked at Qinchuan strangely.
"Sister Su, just tell me if you are interested," said Qinchuan.
"Yes!"
Just like that, Qinchuan would take some time out every day to teach Su He medicine and medicinal cuisine. He didn't expect Su He to have such a high comprehension of medical skills, and she was also very dexterous. After a week, Qinchuan could eat good medicinal cuisine.
Qinchuan, who had nothing to do, went out to see what good things he could buy. After all, he had the Golden God Eye now, and it was time to buy an alchemy furnace.
Along the bustling street, Qinchuan walked aimlessly and looked around. It was rare for him to be so free. He didn't know how long he walked, and he looked around.
Bei Family!
This was the Bei Family of Nanhai City. Qinchuan thought of Bei Xueyi. He had been in Nanhai City for so long, but he didn't come to find her?
Did his feelings for her fade, or was it too long?
The Bei Family was one of the top families in Nanhai City, and their mansion was not inferior to the Qian Family. There were two guards at the door, and they stopped Qinchuan who wanted to enter.
"This is the Bei Family, may I ask who you are looking for?" The young guard on the left stopped Qinchuan politely.
"I'm looking for Bei Xueyi!" said Qinchuan.
"I'm sorry, Bei Xueyi has left for a year," the guard said directly.
"He left!" Qin Chuan was not very surprised, he had expected this.
Five years was enough for her to walk out of Nanhai City, and it would be very difficult for Qinchuan to find her again. There were so many cities around, and who knew which one she was in?
Since Bei Xueyi wasn't here, there was no need for Qinchuan to go to the Bei Family.
… …
On this day, Qinchuan received an invitation to the Nanhai City's Young Generation Exchange Competition.
To put it bluntly, it was a competition to determine the ranking of the younger generation. This competition was organized by a few big families in Bai Li City, to encourage the younger generation to work hard, and also to see the good seedlings of the families.
Ranking in the competition was a kind of status, and people would look up to you wherever they went. You could also get rewards, and if you were lucky, you could even get the favor of a certain girl.
Therefore, the younger generation of Nanhai City was very optimistic about this competition. This was a very prestigious competition in Nanhai City.
It was jointly organized by the Qian Family, Yue Family, Wu Family, Qi Family, Bei Family, Pan Family, and dozens of other families. Moreover, the rewards were distributed according to the ranking. The stronger family would get more rewards.
The rewards were pills, weapons, cultivation techniques, martial skills, movement skills, and so on.
The participants had to be at least in the seventh stage of the Martial Path, and they couldn't be over thirty years old.
The competition was in three days, and the venue was the Hundred Li Martial Field!
… …
"Hahaha, I finally broke through to the ninth stage of the Martial Path!" Wu Yuncong couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He was especially happy. He had finally broken through before the competition. The ninth stage of the Martial Path was the same as Yue Tian of the Yue Family, so he shouldn't lose to him.
Yue Tian was the strongest of the younger generation in Nanhai City, but he didn't get along well with the geniuses of the other families. In the eyes of Yue Chen and Wu Yuncong, this was looking down on them. One was at the eighth stage of the Martial Path, and the other was at the ninth stage of the Martial Path. The gap was very big.
Three days passed in a flash. On this day, the Hundred Li Martial Field was completely surrounded. When Qinchuan came, he could only enter through a special passage.
The martial field was covered with a layer of red carpet, which made people feel very festive.
"Qinchuan, over here!"
Qinchuan looked over and smiled. It was Qian Jian, Consort Qian, Qin Qing, Su He, and the others.
"Qinchuan, look, that's Yue Chen, the number two genius of the Yue Family!" Qian Jian pointed in a direction.
In his twenties, he was as strong as an iron tower. He looked a little simple and honest, but there was a trace of treachery in his honesty.
With just a glance, Qinchuan knew that this big guy was a body cultivator. His physical fitness was very strong, and his physique was also very good. If his perception was enough, he might be able to break through to the tenth stage of the Martial Path.
"That's Qi Kun!"
"Which one is Wu Yuncong? Oh, it's big sister's fiance!" Qian Jian stuck out his tongue.
Consort Qian pretended not to hear.
"This is Wu Yuncong. He's tall and straight. Unfortunately, that thing is too small. Oh right, it's even smaller than yours." Qinchuan said to Qian Jian.
"Eh, you've seen it before?" Qian Jian asked curiously.
"I know medical skills. Medical skills pay attention to look, listen, ask, and feel."
Qinchuan wasn't talking nonsense. However, it wasn't entirely because of his medical skills. It was mainly because of the Golden God's Eye.
"What a pitiful guy." Qian Jian looked at Wu Yuncong pitifully.
"Enough, you two!" Consort Qian couldn't listen anymore. She didn't want to understand. Unfortunately, with what happened last time, it was difficult not to understand.
"What are they talking about? What size?" Qin Qing asked Consort Qian curiously.
Consort Qian smiled and said a few words in Qin Qing's ear, making Qin Qing speechless.
The relationship between Qinchuan and Qian Jian was very good. Sometimes, people were so strange, as if they hit it off.
After knowing that Qinchuan knew medical skills, the two of them had more topics to talk about. After knowing that Qinchuan could make him stronger, he was so excited that he called him brother-in-law.
Slap!
Qian Jian's head was knocked by Consort Qian. Looking at his sister's gloomy face, he could only smile awkwardly. Qinchuan sat upright, making Consort Qian's hand stop.
On one side of the martial arts field was a row of armchairs. Some old people were sitting on them, including the Qian family's old man, the Qi family's old man … and there was actually a young woman.
The young woman should not be very old, but it was impossible to tell her exact age. Her skin was snow-white and delicate, and she had a pair of phoenix eyes that were long and deep. Her purple pleated skirt accentuated her curvaceous figure, and there was an intoxicating smile on her mature and charming face.
A middle-aged man went up to announce the rules of the competition. No intentional injuries, no poison, no hidden weapons, and if the opponent admitted defeat, they must stop immediately …
No hidden weapons. Qinchuan was speechless. His strongest weapon was hidden weapons, or rather, his most effective attack was hidden weapons.
There was a number on the invitation. Whoever was called would go up and compete. Finally, the last person standing on the martial arts stage would be the strongest among the young people in Nanhai City.
The top ten of the competition would be rewarded.
The first to go up was a youth around sixteen or seventeen years old. Qinchuan didn't recognize him. He was at the seventh stage of the Martial Path. He was at the bottom of the competition, but he was also the strongest.
The two numbers next to each other were dueling. This young man was number one, so he fought against number two. The winner continued to fight against the winner of number three and four.
Qinchuan was number eighty-five!
The battle was actually very fast. Martial artist battles were dangerous and intense. Three moves would determine who was stronger, and ten moves would determine the winner. Those who fought for half a day were just ordinary people.
Of course, there were some special situations where they were evenly matched and had shocking endurance, so they could fight for a longer time.
Wild Cloud Piercing Blade!
The one fighting with the youth was a twenty-year-old youth at the late seventh stage of the Martial Path. He held a golden blade in his hand, and he used his ultimate move right away.
The youth waved his blade, and the youth dodged nimbly. Unfortunately, he wasn't as skilled as the youth, and he was defeated after a dozen rounds.
Next was number three, four, five, six …
