103: Chapter 103 A Net of Heaven and Earth

The appearance of Qin Chuan was inconceivable to everyone in the Qin Family, because in their view, after challenging the Ancestor of the Xiao Family, he would surely have run away.

Yet, he did not run, and instead arrived at the Qin Family on the third day.

Not running?

Once the Ancestor of the Xiao Family makes an appearance, this guy will definitely die.

How much self-confidence must one have to think they can defeat the Ancestor of the Xiao Family?

However, the members of the Qin Family would not give him any pleasant looks, though they dared not say much.

Even if Qin Chuan was not a match for the Ancestor of the Xiao Family, he was still not someone the Qin Family could provoke.

Hostility!

Everyone in the Qin Family held hostility toward Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan did not pay any attention to the members of the Qin Family; he found a spot where no one was paying attention, sat down, and closed his eyes to rest.

Although there were many people in the Qin Family, no one thought that the person who challenged the Ancestor of the Xiao Family could be Qin Chuan, because he was too young, and furthermore, he did not look like a strong Martial Artist.

Time passed minute by minute.

Finally, the last day arrived, and then everyone discovered that the Xiao Family simply did not show up.

"What is going on?"

"Is the Ancestor of the Xiao Family not accepting the challenge?"

"I guess he won't come. The Qin Family went to apologize earlier."

"Doesn't that mean we wasted our money for nothing?"

"What a pity. It would have been great to witness this battle."

"..."

The countless people who had come to watch the battle were extremely disappointed.

They had originally thought they would be able to see a Land Immortal make a move, but in the end, the person didn't even show up.

However, in everyone's view, it was not that the Ancestor of the Xiao Family was afraid, but rather that he disdained to make a move.

Qin Chuan also smiled. The Ancestor of the Xiao Family actually dared not come. He did not believe it was because the Qin Family had apologized that he didn't show up.

"You are very lucky. After our apology, the Ancestor of the Xiao Family is no longer willing to lower himself to your level." Qin Chengwen glanced at Qin Chuan and let out an almost imperceptible snort.

"Qin Chuan, listen to your grandfather. Do not provoke the Ancestor of the Xiao Family. Cultivate well, and in the future, our Qin Family..." Qin De still wanted to persuade him a bit more.

However, before he could finish speaking, Qin Chuan had already stood up and left, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Qin De was a bit annoyed, but he did not chase after him.

"Father, what is there to say to a person like him? If our Qin Family hadn't gone to the Xiao Family to apologize, would the Ancestor of the Xiao Family have let him off so easily?"

Qin Chengwu spoke in a sarcastic tone: "Look at him acting all capable. He really thinks he is invincible in the world. This is a frog at the bottom of a well!"

"Exactly. If it weren't for obtaining a cultivation treasure, with just his Aptitude, he still wants to ride on our heads?"

"In my opinion, with a personality like Qin Chuan's, he probably won't live long."

"Today he dares to challenge the Ancestor of the Xiao Family; tomorrow he will dare to challenge other Land Immortals of various countries. Death is just a matter of time for him."

"..."

After seeing Qin Chuan leave, the members of the Qin Family finally dared to start making sarcastic remarks.

Qin De was lost in thought: "But having said that, do you think he will go to the Xiao Family?"

Once these words were spoken, everyone in the Qin Family was shocked.

"Father, do you mean to say that he would actually dare to go to the Xiao Family?" Qin Chengwu's expression was one of shock.

After being prompted by Qin De, everyone also felt that it was not impossible.

Qin Chuan now could be said to be bursting with self-confidence; it was possible he really might go to the Xiao Family.

"Then he won't be able to see tonight's moon."

"..."

This battle could be said to be all thunder and no rain.

As soon as people heard that someone was challenging the Ancestor of the Xiao Family, and that this person had even defeated the number one person of the Witchcraft Path, Huyan Jue, it attracted the attention of the entire Martial Arts world.

Who knows how many people flooded into the capital; many even spent large sums of money at the Qin Family to buy good spots to watch the battle. The better the spot, the more expensive the price.

As a result, the Ancestor of the Xiao Family did not come.

It was a classic case of all thunder and no rain.

This left everyone feeling a bit puzzled. They didn't think the Qin Family would run away; after all, the Qin Family was right there and couldn't escape.

But they never expected that the Ancestor of the Xiao Family wouldn't come.

"It seems this challenge was completely a misunderstanding. The Qin Family went to apologize; they probably paid a lot of money in compensation, otherwise, the Ancestor of the Xiao Family wouldn't have failed to show up."

"But exactly how much compensation was paid to make the Xiao Family let it go?"

"I remember the Young Master of the Xiao Family was heavily injured, and the challenge was issued because of that. Could the Ancestor of the Xiao Family really not be angry about this?"

Someone was analyzing.

But they couldn't analyze anything conclusive.

More people guessed that it was mainly because the Qin Family had apologized and provided huge compensation, which made the Xiao Family let the matter rest.

"I even saw the Young Master of the Xiao Family at a bar yesterday." Someone suddenly blurted out.

"Oh... then that's not surprising. The Young Master of the Xiao Family is safe and sound, and the Qin Family paid a huge compensation. It would be a ghost story if the Xiao Family came."

Just like that, through everyone's layers of analysis, the matter was thoroughly dissected, resulting in a conclusion that they believed was infinitely close to the truth.

Little did they know.

At this moment, the Xiao Family was facing a formidable enemy.

All Martial Artists above the Sixth Realm were recalled, and the Xiao Family even invited 7th Realm and 8th Realm Martial Artists with whom they had very good relationships.

To put it bluntly, the Xiao Family today was truly filled with strong experts.

The Xiao Family was very clear that the Old Ancestor would not go to the Qin Family. Not going there meant that Qin Chuan might come to kill them at their doorstep.

Therefore, the Xiao Family had made preparations early on.

There were three 8th Realm Martial Artists!

There were eight Level 7 Martial Artists!

There were several Martial Artists below the 7th Realm!

They were guarding against Qin Chuan coming to their door.

The Dragon Kingdom does not allow two Land Immortals to exist simultaneously, so a battle between these two was bound to erupt. Since the Ancestor of the Xiao Family did not go today, it was very likely that the other party would come to kill them.

The Xiao Family did not know if the Old Ancestor could defeat Qin Chuan, and they dared not gamble.

Just as the Ancestor of the Xiao Family did not go to accept the challenge, even the Old Ancestor dared not gamble.

Cultivation is not easy; one should cherish every step of the journey.

The Old Ancestor was a Land Immortal; it was truly not easy to Cultivate to this Realm.

Moreover, the higher one's Realm, the more they cherish their life; who would be willing to engage in a life-or-death battle with others?

However, setting up a Net of Heaven and Earth to wait for Qin Chuan to come to their door was certainly possible.

No matter how powerful Qin Chuan was, even if he killed his way through so many strong experts, by the time he finally faced the Old Ancestor, he would likely be quite exhausted, and by then, the Old Ancestor's chances of winning would only be higher.

However, some people had long guessed that Qin Chuan might take the initiative to attack their doorstep.

A very small portion of Martial Artists had come to the Xiao Family to watch the battle.

"Do you think this battle will erupt tonight?"

"If it really erupts, then we will be the first spectators."

"..."

These people, who considered themselves to have foresight, were all feeling smug.

At this moment, the Xiao Family had entered a state of solemn silence.

Everyone was quietly waiting for Qin Chuan's arrival; in the view of the Xiao Family, Qin Chuan would definitely come.

Young Master Xiao Jinxiu gritted his teeth: "As long as this guy dares to come, he can forget about leaving the Xiao Family alive!"

Patriarch Xiao Wuyan nodded slightly: "No matter how powerful he is, facing the Net of Heaven and Earth we have set up, he has absolutely no chance of survival!"
