100: Chapter 100 I would like to ask Mr. Qin for help
"Why haven't you scrambled off yet?"
Xiao Xueqing cast a cold glance at her third uncle.
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart; fortunately, she happened to be nearby and arrived within five minutes, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.
She had a very good impression of Mr. Qin and also intended to recruit him. If her third uncle had died at his hands, even if she remained polite on the surface, there would inevitably be some lingering resentment in her heart.
Xiao Sen said nothing, turned around, and left with a gloomy face. He was, after all, the Third Master of the Xiao Family; being forced to kneel by a Junior, and in front of so many people at that.
He truly couldn't save face.
All he could say was that this matter... was not over!
"Then... Miss Xiao, may I get up now?"
Zhou Qiang asked cautiously.
Xiao Xueqing said expressionlessly, "You should ask Mr. Qin!"
"Mr. Qin, I have offended you just now; may I get up now?" Zhou Qiang had no choice but to ask Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan waved his hand, not intending to pursue the matter further.
"Miss Xiao, if there is anything you need, feel free to give orders at any time." After getting up, Zhou Qiang said this to Xiao Xueqing and then retreated with his men.
Xu Zihao and the others were filled with shock; the crisis had actually been resolved just like that.
It was too dramatic.
Who could have imagined that Xiao Sen would actually be forced to kneel and apologize.
However, they didn't think Qin Chuan was particularly powerful; they could only say he happened to know Miss Xiao and was extremely lucky.
Yun Mei gritted her teeth. She was, of course, happy that Qin Lan was able to turn danger into safety, but she didn't know what mindset to use when facing Qin Lan in the future.
"Mr. Qin, could we step aside to talk?" Xiao Xueqing asked.
Qin Chuan nodded and left with Xiao Xueqing, taking his younger sister along.
Originally, Qin Lan wanted to go up and talk to Yun Mei and the others, but thinking about how they had abandoned her just now, she felt conflicted inside.
She wouldn't blame Yun Mei, but it was unlikely she could completely forgive her in her heart.
The vehicle Xiao Xueqing was sitting in was a Rolls-Royce Phantom. After getting into the car, Qin Chuan noticed that his sister's mood was a bit low.
"Is it because of what just happened?"
"Mm..." Qin Lan didn't hide it. "I know that in that situation, protecting oneself is the right thing to do. After all, we are just roommates; there is no need to offend people who cannot be offended for my sake, but... I still feel a bit sad in my heart."
"Miss Qin, one day, you will find a true confidant." Xiao Xueqing smiled.
"I hope so." Qin Lan's mood remained very low.
Xiao Xueqing grabbed Qin Lan's hand: "People all have an instinct for survival, but if it were me, I would not abandon a friend, just as you would not abandon your friends."
Qin Lan looked at her in surprise.
"As long as your conscience is clear, that is all that matters." Xiao Xueqing smiled.
"Conscience is clear..." Qin Lan murmured.
"Is that Xiao Sen your third uncle?" Qin Chuan changed the subject.
Like today's incident with Yun Mei, Qin Chuan had experienced countless such things in the Cultivation World; it was already considered decent that they hadn't trampled on you while you were down.
"Mm." Xiao Xueqing nodded.
"Isn't your Xiao Family a Martial Arts Family? Your third uncle is just an ordinary person." Qin Chuan looked slightly puzzled.
Xiao Xueqing said helplessly: "Even the strongest Martial Arts Family cannot guarantee that everyone has the talent to Cultivate, or that everyone wants to Cultivate. Moreover, there is no Family that lasts forever. My third uncle has neither martial arts talent nor the heart to Cultivate; he just wants to indulge in pleasure."
"The great-grandson of our Dragon Country's strongest expert, Young Master Xiao Jinxiu, is still a Cultivation Trash. He has piled up so many resources and worked hard for so long, yet he still hasn't entered the Qi Transformation stage."
For a Martial Artist, Qi Transformation is actually a threshold; only after entering Qi Transformation can one be considered to have truly entered the martial arts.
Just like immortal cultivation, only after Foundation Establishment can one truly embark on the path of immortal cultivation.
"Is the Land Immortal in the Xiao Family?" Qin Chuan asked suddenly.
"Mm."
This wasn't a secret. Xiao Xueqing said: "The Xiao Family is the number one Family in the Dragon Country. Do you know how old the Ancestor of the Xiao Family is now?"
"How old?"
"At least one hundred and fifty years old!"
When mentioning this, Xiao Xueqing was a bit shocked: "Even at the Eighth Realm Peak, one cannot escape the natural law of aging and death, yet the Ancestor of the Xiao Family has actually lived to be one hundred and fifty years old."
"So, some people in the Martial Arts World guessed that once one steps into the Land Immortal realm, one is truly transcendent, and one's lifespan will extend accordingly."
"Up until now, not a single Land Immortal has died of old age."
"However, too many Eighth Realm Peak Martial Artists want this Land Immortal to die, so many times, Land Immortals die from being besieged by numerous experts."
"This has led to the fact that, until now, no one knows exactly how long a Land Immortal can live."
One hundred and fifty years old!
For the Cultivation World, this lifespan is not considered long.
However, it is indeed quite difficult for a human to live to this age.
"Does your Xiao Family also have Eighth Realm Peak Martial Artists?"
"Mm." Xiao Xueqing nodded slightly. "However, as long as the Ancestor of the Xiao Family is alive, there cannot be a second Land Immortal. I heard that a while ago, a Mysterious Expert appeared, who seemed to be a Land Immortal."
When she said this, her gaze towards Qin Chuan carried a hint of strangeness.
She did not continue this topic.
"I heard that the Qin Family offended the Xiao Family today?"
Xiao Xueqing was, after all, Miss Xiao; her sources of information were naturally very fast.
"Oh, you know about it?" Qin Chuan looked interested.
"Mm." Xiao Xueqing said: "Because people from the Qin Family went to apologize."
"Apologize?" Qin Chuan frowned.
"Yes, the head of the Qin Family, Qin De, went to the Xiao Family to apologize. It is said that they paid one billion in compensation and a Magical Artifact."
"The Qin Family is generous."
Xiao Xueqing was filled with emotion when mentioning this.
Qin Chuan sighed; the Qin Family had chosen the Xiao Family after all.
"I also heard that the reason the Qin Family offended the Xiao Family was because you challenged the Ancestor of the Xiao Family?" Xiao Xueqing blinked her large eyes.
"I wanted to see the strength of a Land Immortal." Qin Chuan said.
There were quite a lot of people at the Qin Family at the time; this matter naturally could not be kept hidden.
"A Land Immortal is terrifyingly powerful. If the Ancestor of the Xiao Family really accepts the challenge, you must be careful." Xiao Xueqing warned.
"I will." Qin Chuan nodded.
"However, you specifically asked to talk to me; it shouldn't just be to gossip about me and the Xiao Family, right?"
"As expected, nothing can be hidden from Mr. Qin."
Xiao Xueqing smiled lightly: "There is indeed one thing I would like to ask Mr. Qin for help with."
"Once it is accomplished, I will reward you handsomely."
"I am not interested in money." Qin Chuan said indifferently.
How could someone from the Cultivation World be interested in money? Let alone him, even some high-level Martial Artists had lost interest in money.
A confident smile appeared on Xiao Xueqing's face.
"Mr. Qin, if you knew where we were going, you would definitely be interested."
