25: Qin Lie arrived, Mo Hongchen

"Whatever you want!"

"But you can't kill him!"

"This is the Academy, a place to Cultivate talent! Randomly killing people will attract the dissatisfaction of some powerful and influential individuals."

"You don't have the Qin Clan's support, only Her Majesty the Empress. When it's time to restrain yourself, this old man thinks it's better to do so!"

Dean reminded him.

Those in power are sometimes swept along by the general trend!

If he offends too many powerful families, Chu Yuehua, after weighing the pros and cons, might not necessarily protect Qin Wushang.

After all, his surname is Qin!

Not Chu!

Of course, this still depends on Qin Wushang's own value!

"Understood!"

Qin Wushang said.

"Um... Senior Brother Qin, I'm sorry, I spoke too harshly earlier!"

At this moment, Chu Qingci, head bowed like a child who had done wrong, walked over, fiddling with his clothes.

"It's fine! If I were to hold it against you, that punch back then would have been enough to kill you!"

Qin Wushang said indifferently.

He could tell that neither of the siblings had ill intentions.

Otherwise, how could that punch back then have merely left a fist mark?

With his strength, striking a Cave Heaven Realm brat, one punch would be enough to send him to his grave.

Chu Qingci breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Qin Wushang's words!

He looked up, forced a smile, and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Qin!"

"Oh, right! Senior Brother Qin, my father's surname is also Qin! Are you related to my family?"

He asked out of curiosity.

His father was a live-in son-in-law, from the Qin Clan, the Yunmeng Qin Clan.

It was very far away, and he had never been there!

It was said to be a large clan!

"No!"

"I'm just an ordinary person! If there's nothing else, go about your business!"

Qin Wushang shook his head.

Based on his memories from his previous life, he had already guessed whose children the siblings were when he saw them.

The Qin Clan, a Prodigy of Qin Zhantian's generation!

Qin Zhanzhou!

An even more prodigious existence than Qin Zhantian!

If he hadn't left the Qin Clan, he should have called Qin Zhanzhou 'Third Uncle,' and these two siblings would have been his cousins.

However, that person, like him, had also severed ties!

So, on the surface, they had no relation, and even if they did, he couldn't be bothered to claim this kinship!

"In that case, we'll be leaving first!"

"Senior Brother Qin, take care!"

Chu Zhixia nodded, bowed, and bid farewell.

She glanced at Qin Wushang, her beautiful eyes holding a different meaning, then pulled her stinky younger brother and headed towards the other side of the plaza.

"Sister! What's the rush? I still have so much to say to Senior Brother Qin!"

"Oh, right! Sister, do you really believe Senior Brother Qin is an ordinary person? I don't! I feel like he must be a Prodigy from our father's Qin Family!"

"Sister! Don't you agree?"

"Sister! I am the Future Great Emperor. Do you think I should fight Senior Brother Qin in the future, or follow him to grow strong?"

Chu Qingci was dragged along, his mouth chattering nonstop, not forgetting to turn back and wave at Qin Wushang.

Qin Wushang ignored him, turned, and left.

He had no acquaintances here, so he naturally wandered around, looking for individuals with Opportunity.

...[Name: Shi Zhenxiang]

...[Recent Opportunity: Slayed a Black Forest Demonic Serpent and found an undigested fourth-grade Spirit Fruit in its feces (can be plundered)]

After wandering around the Academy, Qin Wushang saw many people and many panels.

Without exception, either there was no Opportunity, or it was some trash Opportunity.

And it hadn't triggered the System's selection mission!

Helpless, he could only return to Emperor Mountain to Cultivate!

...One day later.

An old man arrived at the Great Chu Academy.

"Hey! Did you know? The world-renowned Prodigy Qin Wushang is actually a guy in his twenties!"

"Isn't that right! I was also very surprised! A Body Refining Realm practitioner in his twenties! It's said he spent twenty years in Body Refining to break the record!"

"Spending twenty years laying a foundation seems to have great benefits! Look, isn't he directly opening all nine meridians!"

"What's so great about opening all nine meridians! Brother, your news is outdated. True Disciple Qin is an existence who opened three Cave Heaven Realms in one step! He punched and exploded the Heir of Tianwu's Dao Palace Divine Prayer!"

The old man, dressed simply, as if no one was around, walked directly through the outer sect area and inner sect area of the Academy... He listened to the discussions of the passing Disciples, and the more he listened, the happier he became!

"This is Shang'er!"

"My Grandson, Qin Lie's!"

He couldn't help but sigh, and his anger towards Qin Hao's actions grew even more intense.

If it weren't for that cursed guy, the whole world would now know... Qin Wushang of the Qin Clan!

They would be discussing Qin Wushang of the Qin Clan, not some True Disciple of the Academy or personal Disciple of the Empress!

"Lie'er! You still came!"

At this moment, a voice sounded, and the old man turned his head.

An old woman walked towards him.

"Revered Master!"

"Alas, who told him he was of my Qin Clan Bloodline! No matter the reason, I had to come and see this boy!"

Qin Lie looked at the approaching person, bowed, and said helplessly.

The person who came was the Grand Elder of the Academy, a Saint Venerable expert of the Academy, his Revered Master, Grand Master Mo Hongchen!

"He won't go with you!"

"Her Majesty the Empress won't allow it, and the old fogeys of the Academy won't agree either."

Grand Master Mo Hongchen said.

Qin Wushang's movements had been very significant these days, and even though she had semi-retired, she had begun to pay attention to this young man.

She didn't believe Qin Wushang would go with Qin Lie.

The Academy wouldn't agree either!

He was too prodigious; the Great Chu Academy needed such a Prodigy!

"That's his business! Ultimately, I am still his grandfather, so I should still come."

Qin Lie said.

He had never thought of forcibly taking Qin Wushang away; he only came to see his Grandson whom he hadn't seen in a long time.

How to choose was Qin Wushang's business!

"Think what you want!"

"But if you try to forcibly take him away, as a Grand Elder of the Academy, I, as your Revered Master, will also intervene!"

Grand Master Mo Hongchen said.

Although the two had a hundred years of Revered Master-Disciple affection, she now pledged allegiance to the Great Chu Empress.

"Since you were fortunate enough to Breakthrough to Saint Venerable, you should actually be thinking about how to advance further."

"As for the Qin Clan's mess, if it were me, your Revered Master, I would have thrown it away long ago and let them perish on their own!"

Grand Master Mo Hongchen said again.

The Qin Clan was no good!

Whether in its prosperous times or its current decline, it was no good!

"That's not Revered Master's home, so Revered Master naturally speaks easily, but I am different."

"That is, after all, where I grew up."

Qin Lie shook his head and smiled bitterly.

The two walked side by side towards Emperor Mountain.

"You've already given enough!"

"If it weren't for you forcibly extending the clan's fortune, the Martial God of that year would have already annihilated the entire Qin Clan! Why would he have merely driven you out of the Imperial Capital?"

Grand Master Mo Hongchen said.

The Martial God was Chu Yuehua's father!

A generation's hegemon, but alas, fate played a trick, and he couldn't complete his ambitious endeavor.

"Let's not talk about what happened back then! I'm nothing; Zhanzhou made the biggest sacrifice!"

"Revered Master!"

"Let me enter Emperor Mountain by myself!"

Qin Lie said.

Since Grand Master Mo Hongchen appeared here and was taking him towards Emperor Mountain, Her Majesty the Empress must have given instructions.

He was allowed to enter Emperor Mountain by Her Majesty the Empress!

"It's fine! We're just old bones! A little exercise!"

"Besides, I also want to see that child!"
