172: Lin Qingxue's father Lin Tiannan
Upon hearing this, Lin Qingxue shyly nodded.
Qin Tian pondered for a moment, then decided to summon Gray Wu Chang to make a grand entrance. With a Peak Returning Void Realm servant, who would dare to disrespect him wherever he went? His prestige would instantly soar.
Thinking of this, his mind stirred, and the High-Grade Treasure Artifact mask appeared directly in Gray Wu Chang’s hand. He transmitted a message via Divine Sense, “Gray Wu Chang, put on the mask and transform into an old servant.”
“Yes, Revered Master!”
Upon hearing the command, Gray Wu Chang quickly put on the mask, transforming into a gray-robed old man, and his robes also changed into those of a family servant.
With a sweep of Divine Sense, Gray Wu Chang appeared directly before Qin Tian.
“Greetings, Revered Master!” Gray Wu Chang knelt and bowed.
“Rise!”
Lin Qingxue, seeing an old servant suddenly appear, looked at Qin Tian in surprise and asked, “Hu… Husband! Who is he?”
“Haha! I fished him out of a stinking ditch. I saw he had Peak Returning Void Realm cultivation, so I reluctantly took him as a servant!” Qin Tian laughed.
“What? A Peak Returning Void Realm servant?” Lin Qingxue was greatly astonished.
“Lin Qingxue, there’s no need to be surprised. Someone at the Peak Returning Void Realm is nothing more than Zhang Fei eating bean sprouts, a piece of cake. In the future, it will be common for Great Emperor powerhouses to become our servants.”
After a moment of shock, Lin Qingxue nodded gently.
Before, she thought Qin Tian was a Young Master from a Holy Land powerhouse, or a Saint of a Holy Land. After asking her other sisters, she realized that Qin Tian was merely the Sect Master of the small Heavenly Demon Sect, and his Sect only had a few Nascent Soul Realm Elders, not even a single Soul Transformation Realm cultivator.
She never expected that he could even take a Peak Returning Void Realm cultivator as a servant? She didn’t believe that this person was truly fished out of a stinking ditch by Qin Tian.
Listening to her younger sister Tong Yan, Qin Tian knew a method of enslavement. She thought he must have subdued this old man and then planted a slave mark on him.
“Gray Wu Chang, this is your Mistress. From now on, when you see her, you must be as respectful as you are to me, understood?” Qin Tian commanded coldly.
“Yes, Revered Master!”
“Greetings, Mistress!” Gray Wu Chang knelt and bowed.
“Ri… Rise!” Lin Qingxue said, trembling slightly.
She couldn’t help but be nervous. The highest cultivated person in their Sect was her Revered Master, who was at the Early Stage Body Integration Realm. Her father, as the Grand Elder, was only at the Late Stage Returning Void Realm. Now, with a Peak Returning Void Realm servant, she felt it was unreal just thinking about it.
“Thank you, Mistress!”
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
Suddenly, in the valley ahead, ripples appeared in the Void Realm, and a middle-aged man slowly walked out from within.
The middle-aged man was seven feet tall, dressed in a green robe, wearing a jade crown, with his black hair tied up with a jade hairpin. Below a pair of sword-like eyebrows were deep, ocean-like eyes, and a high nose bridge. He had an extraordinary Aura.
Qin Tian knew at a glance that this person was Lin Qingxue’s father, bearing a three-point resemblance to her. From this, it could be seen that he was also a handsome man in his youth.
“Father!” Lin Qingxue, seeing her father Lin Tiannan, quickly ran to him.
Lin Tiannan, seeing Lin Qingxue, rubbed her small head and smiled.
“Xue’er, you’ve broken through to the Soul Transformation Realm? Good, good, good!” Lin Tiannan laughed loudly.
Immediately, his gaze fell upon Qin Tian and Gray Wu Chang, and his brows furrowed slightly. “Xue’er, who are they? Where is your Senior Brother Jiang Chen?”
Lin Qingxue’s Face flushed upon hearing this. She came to Qin Tian, hugged his arm, and stammered, “He… His name is Qin Tian, and he… he is my Husband!”
“What?!”
Lin Tiannan was greatly astonished, then burst into anger, “Xue’er, how dare you! You already have a fiancé, yet you dare to secretly commit to someone else outside!”
Feeling her father’s fury, Lin Qingxue’s Face turned pale, and she didn’t know how to explain it to him.
Qin Tian patted Lin Qingxue’s small hand and comforted her, “Don’t be afraid, watch me.”
Qin Tian slowly walked to Lin Tiannan, slightly cupping his hands, “Greetings, Uncle.”
“What are you? What right do you have to call me Uncle?” Lin Tiannan said disdainfully.
“Presumptuous! How dare you be disrespectful to Young Master!” Gray Wu Chang roared.
As soon as his voice fell, an overwhelming pressure erupted from Gray Wu Chang’s body, surging towards Lin Tiannan.
Lin Tiannan felt a pressure several times stronger than his own rushing towards him, as if to crush him into powder.
“Peak Returning Void Realm?” Lin Tiannan exclaimed in shock.
He used all his strength to resist the pressure but still retreated three steps.
“Old Grey, don’t be rude!” Qin Tian commanded coldly.
“Yes, Young Master!”
As his voice faded, the pressure receded like a tide. Lin Tiannan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looking at Qin Tian in shock.
He never expected that this Little White Face would have a Peak Returning Void Realm guard.
“What is his identity? Could he be the Young Master of some major force? Otherwise, how could he have a Peak Returning Void Realm powerhouse as a guard?” Lin Tiannan muttered in his heart.
Thinking of this, cold sweat instantly drenched his back.
Their Tian Yuan Sword Sect was currently in a precarious situation, and they absolutely could not offend any other forces, otherwise, what awaited them would be the destruction of their Sect.
Even against this Peak Returning Void Realm old man, he was not an opponent. He would at least need to join forces with the other Elders to contend with him. Sect Master Lin Ruohan was poisoned by cold Qi and was still unconscious, so she couldn’t make a move at all.
“This Young Master, I was rude just now. Please don’t take it to heart!” Lin Tiannan gritted his teeth.
As the Grand Elder of the Tian Yuan Sword Sect, he had always held a high position. Now, he had to apologize to his daughter’s man, which made him very unhappy, but for the sake of the Tian Yuan Sword Sect, he could only endure it.
“Uncle, there’s no need to mind. I haven’t taken it to heart. Speaking of which, I should thank you. If it weren’t for you, how could I have such a gentle and virtuous wife as Qingxue?” Qin Tian laughed.
Qingxue hugged Qin Tian’s arm, swaying it while cooing, “Husband, my father has a bad temper, so please don’t blame him, okay?”
“Don’t worry, your Husband isn’t that petty!”
“Thank you, Husband!”
“Kiss!”
Lin Qingxue gave Qin Tian a hard kiss on the cheek.
Seeing his daughter kissing and hugging an outsider, Lin Tiannan felt a mixture of emotions and was very displeased, as if his most beloved treasure had been snatched away by someone else.
“Xue’er, you still haven’t said, what exactly is going on?” Lin Tiannan said angrily.
Qin Tian’s eyes turned cold as he looked at Lin Tiannan and laughed, “Uncle, although Qingxue is your daughter, she is also my wife, so please speak more politely.”
Lin Tiannan felt very frustrated upon hearing this. “What kind of situation is this? His daughter ran off with someone else, and he can’t even scold his own daughter?”
Looking at the gray-robed old man beside him, he sighed helplessly.
There was no other way. He couldn’t win in a fight, and besides, there might be some major force behind the other party that he simply couldn’t afford to offend.
“Xue’er, tell Father, what exactly happened? Where is your Senior Brother Jiang Chen?” Lin Tiannan asked.
Lin Qingxue’s Face flushed, and she stammered, “My Senior Brother and I met villains in the Xuantian Secret Realm. He… he gave me to the villains to save his life. The villains… gave me a drug. It was… it was Husband who repelled the villains and… and detoxified me!”
“What? Jiang Chen actually gave you to villains?” Lin Tiannan flew into a rage.
Lin Qingxue nodded slightly, with tears seemingly glistening in her eyes, showing extreme grievance. “Senior Brother Jiang Chen later found out that I was no longer pure. He… he even slapped me and called me a cheap woman!”
“What, that scoundrel Jiang Chen dared to hit you? And dared to call you a cheap woman?”
“You said you are no longer pure? What happened? What poison did you get?” Lin Tiannan asked angrily.
Lin Qingxue nodded gently, tears seemingly sparkling in her eyes, revealing an extremely wronged expression.
“It… it was Bliss Powder!”
