23: Chapter 23 Qin Chuan Cannot Meet My Needs

Childhood sweethearts?

Qin Chuan paused. Memories of the two of them quickly surfaced. Calling them childhood sweethearts was a bit of a stretch, but it wasn't entirely inaccurate. Before he began cultivating, and before he realized he wasn't good enough for Song Yao, he had indeed had some thoughts about Shen Wangshu.

As the young master of the Qin Family, he had considered himself more than enough to be a match for Shen Wangshu.

Shen Wangshu's appearance was not much inferior to Song Yao's. Back then, when Qin Chuan was just an ordinary person, how could he not have been tempted?

However, his memory of Shen Wangshu was still stuck in high school. She had been a bit immature back then, unlike now, where she had grown into a great beauty.

For Shen Wangshu and Aunt Meng, it had only been a few years since they last met, but for Qin Chuan, it had been a full five hundred years.

Time could wash away everything, but Family affection had become an obsession in Qin Chuan's heart.

The current Qin Chuan naturally no longer had those old feelings for Shen Wangshu; he even felt that his former self had been a bit childish.

"Wangshu, long time no see." Qin Chuan waved his hand.

"Long time no see." Although Shen Wangshu had been complaining in the car, she was still polite on the surface. After meeting him, she began to size Qin Chuan up.

He looked quite handsome, but at her level, what kind of handsome men hadn't she seen?

Moreover, she was extremely dissatisfied with her mother's emphasis on them being childhood sweethearts. If it were the old Qin Chuan, she would have felt his Family background was more than enough to match her, but the current Qin Chuan was just lacking.

Shen Wangshu's standards were very high. Family background could be set aside for a moment, but personal ability had to be strong.

Qin Chuan... obviously did not meet her requirements.

Even when the Qin Family was at its Peak, Shen Wangshu would not have thought much of Qin Chuan, let alone Song Yao, who enjoyed the title of the number one beauty in Jinling.

Afterward, Aunt Meng took Shen Wangshu to visit Qin Lan. She asked after the siblings and gave them some money.

Qin Chuan had originally refused, but Aunt Meng seemed to understand the current situation of the Qin Family and insisted on giving it to him, adding: "Jinling is not peaceful right now. You and your sister should focus on university, and if you need any help, contact Wangshu anytime."

After leaving the Qin Family, Shen Wangshu complained a bit: "Mom, why did you have to emphasize that we're childhood sweethearts?"

Aunt Meng understood her daughter's temper and didn't get angry: "You two are childhood sweethearts. You were in the same school for elementary and middle school. Even though you weren't in the same high school, you ended up at the same university."

"Can that really be considered the same?" A look of disdain appeared on Shen Wangshu's face. "Did he get in on his own merit? Jinling University Business School, he bought his way in. He even used connections to keep his enrollment status with money. If it were a normal 985 university, his status would have been revoked long ago."

"You child..." Aunt Meng frowned, wanting to lecture her, but sighed helplessly in the end.

"Mom, let me tell you, I have a classmate who is a Martial Artist. Do you know what a Martial Artist is? A Martial Arts Family is not something our ordinary families can compare to. If there's a chance, I also want to step into the world of martial arts!"

Speaking to the end, a look of longing appeared on Shen Wangshu's face.

"Sigh..." Aunt Meng sighed again. "Regardless, Xiao Chuan's parents took special care of our Family back then. Without them, our Family wouldn't be where it is today. You should help Xiao Chuan out more."

"Got it, got it." Shen Wangshu replied impatiently.

Meanwhile.

In the Ye Family of Jinling.

Ye Nantian was on the phone.

"Nantian, what exactly happened at the Martial Arts Exchange Conference? I heard that many Alliance Guards died. You were at the scene; how could you not control it?" Long San's voice came from the other end of the phone, carrying a hint of reproach.

As a 7th Realm Martial God, how could Ye Nantian be unable to control the scene?

"Elder Long, I..." Ye Nantian really wanted to reveal Qin Chuan's identity, but he had been warned. If he said it out loud, his own life might be in danger.

"The other party is too strong. I didn't dare to make a move rashly."

"Even you are wary of him?" Long San's voice became grave.

"Yes." Ye Nantian did not hide this aspect. "My full-strength strike was easily blocked by him. And if I hadn't conceded at that time, I would likely have been the one dead."

Long San fell silent.

Since when did such an awesome existence appear in Jinling?

"Have you investigated the other party's identity?" Long San continued to ask.

"I have." Ye Nantian didn't hide this either, because it was not a secret at all. Even if he didn't say it, Long San could easily investigate it.

"The Qin Family... Qin Chuan."

Subsequently, he recounted the grievances between Qin Chuan and Qi Mingyu in detail.

Long San was also annoyed when he heard this: "These Martial Artists just use martial arts to violate the law. Even those Alliance Guards are birds of a feather."

He extremely loathed those Martial Artists who attacked ordinary people. The establishment of the Alliance Guard was meant to prevent this, but in reality, it had no effect at all.

The Alliance Guard had more or less become a shield for these Martial Arts Families.

"Sigh!" Speaking to the end, Long San sighed. Such a situation was not something he could change. "How is the search for that Mysterious Expert going?"

Ye Nantian raised an eyebrow. Dare I say that the Mysterious Expert is Qin Chuan? He immediately said: "No trace."

"That's true. If a Land Immortal does not want to be found by us, it is very difficult for us to find them. It's just that the Earth Alliance will know sooner or later, and it will be us who are in trouble then." Long San said with a bitter tone.

After chatting for a while longer, Ye Nantian hung up the phone and then called the Ye Family's butler in.

"How is the matter I asked you to investigate?"

"Old Master Ye, the Qi Family has been reduced to scorched earth." The butler said, looking extremely horrified.

The Qi Family was a major Martial Arts Family in Jinling, but they were all killed overnight, and the Qi Family had even been turned into scorched earth.

What kind of terrifying power was that?

What kind of great power did the Qi Family offend?

Ye Nantian was not surprised by this. Just kidding, that was a Land Immortal. Looking at the whole of Jinling, no, the whole Earth, how many people could contend with him?

One thing he was certain of was that among the eight Land Immortals currently on Earth, none were likely to be a match for Qin Chuan!

"Huff..."

Ye Nantian let out a breath: "I just hope no one is blind enough to offend him, otherwise they won't even know how they died."

Clearly, Ye Nantian's worries were justified.

Because today, someone had already come to find trouble with Qin Chuan. It was none other than the Alliance Guard. The leader was Qi Bingbing's suitor, named Guo Sheng, who held a significant position within the Alliance Guard.

Upon learning that the girl he liked had been beaten, he spent a few days organizing, and immediately brought people to the door.

"Qin Chuan, get out here!"
