118: Chapter 118 Wei Qiankun

"Tell me in detail about the situation outside!"

The old man sighed deeply.

"Yes!"

Wei Emperor nodded respectfully and then slowly began to recount the recent situation, specifically mentioning Ximen Qing.

"What is the situation with this Ximen Qing?"

The Great Wei Old Ancestor asked specifically. A newly appeared Return to One Realm Martial Artist had a huge impact on the landscape of the Hundred Kingdoms Territory, especially a Return to One Realm Martial Artist like this with no faction background and no ties.

"This Ximen Qing has a mysterious background. He is a Martial Artist who fled here from the outer regions to avoid being hunted down. His specific identity is unknown."

Wei Emperor thought for a moment before speaking slowly.

"Hmm, I understand. You may leave first. I will emerge from seclusion."

The Great Wei Old Ancestor gave a soft hum and then spoke gently.

Hearing his Old Ancestor say this, Wei Emperor could only leave the Forbidden Ground helplessly.

Not long after he left, the figure of the Great Wei Old Ancestor also vanished. He then left the Forbidden Ground and headed towards Yong Province.

Daoquan Mountain, inside the backyard of the Gu Family.

Qin Xiao was soaking in the hot spring room of the Gu Family, served by several beautiful maidservants nearby.

Suddenly, he turned his head to look at the sky to the upper left and said in an unfriendly tone: "Fellow Daoist, is something the matter? How much longer do you intend to watch?"

"Fellow Daoist Ximen's strength is truly unfathomable. You discovered me so quickly."

An old man wearing a dragon robe suddenly appeared in the hot spring room, his eyes gleaming as he looked Qin Xiao up and down.

"I am the Great Wei Old Ancestor, Wei Qiankun. Greetings, Fellow Daoist!"

Wei Qiankun's sudden appearance startled the maidservants serving Qin Xiao, causing them to let out exclamations, but after seeing Qin Xiao's calm expression, they quickly calmed down.

"So it is Fellow Daoist Wei. I wonder what business you have with me?"

Qin Xiao narrowed his eyes, watching Wei Qiankun quietly while becoming vigilant, pondering the purpose of this person.

Wei Qiankun did not speak, only glancing at the maidservants.

"You all may leave!"

Qin Xiao immediately understood and gestured to the maidservants.

"Yes!"

Hearing Qin Xiao's instruction, the maidservants hurriedly bowed and retreated.

"Now, can you tell me your purpose, Fellow Daoist?"

After the maidservants had retreated, Qin Xiao looked at Wei Qiankun and spoke slowly, the vigilance in his eyes undiminished.

"What does Fellow Daoist Ximen think of my Great Wei?"

Wei Qiankun was silent for a moment before asking slowly.

"How is Great Wei? Fellow Daoist Wei should know better than I do!"

Qin Xiao retorted. The current situation of Great Wei was clear even to him, an outsider; as the Old Ancestor of Great Wei, could it be that he didn't know?

Wei Qiankun asked tentatively: "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Ximen has joined any faction?"

"That I have not."

Qin Xiao shook his head; he had a slight guess about the purpose of Wei Qiankun's visit.

"I would like to invite you to become a consultant for the Great Wei Dynasty and protect the Great Wei for a hundred years. What is your intention, Fellow Daoist?"

Seeing Qin Xiao shake his head, Wei Qiankun was immediately overjoyed and asked directly.

He knew his own physical condition—he didn't have many years left to live. He wanted to find a backer for Great Wei before he died, and Ximen Qing, who hadn't joined any faction, was undoubtedly the best choice.

"Fellow Daoist Wei is joking. I have no intention of joining any other faction."

Qin Xiao refused directly without even thinking. How could he possibly do such a thankless job?

"Fellow Daoist Ximen, don't be in such a hurry to refuse. If you are willing to become a consultant for my Great Wei and protect the Great Wei for a hundred years, I am willing to offer one Heaven-Grade Low Grade Cultivation Technique, two Heaven-Grade Low Grade Martial Skills, one Earth-Grade Top Grade Spirit Weapon, two bottles of Earth-Grade High Grade Spirit Pills, and one hundred thousand Spirit Stones."

"Hiss!"

Hearing the conditions offered by Wei Qiankun, Qin Xiao couldn't help but gasp. Great Wei's Family fortune was quite substantial!

He was not lacking in Heaven-Grade Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills, after all, he had snatched quite a few from Yang Hao, but this Earth-Grade Top Grade Spirit Weapon, Earth-Grade High Grade Spirit Pills, and these one hundred thousand Spirit Stones were quite tempting to him.

He only had about 3,000 Spirit Stones on him, he didn't have an Earth-Grade Top Grade Spirit Weapon, and Earth-Grade High Grade Spirit Pills could also be of great use to him.

"Fellow Daoist wants to buy time for the Yin Yang Realm Martial Artists of your Family to achieve a Breakthrough to the Return to One Realm?"

Qin Xiao looked at Wei Qiankun with a faint smile.

Wei Qiankun nodded: "Yes, I want to buy time for my descendants to achieve a Breakthrough to the Return to One Realm. The Great Wei Imperial Dynasty is a great undertaking that my ancestors carved out with great difficulty, and it cannot be ruined in my hands."

He had two descendants who were exceptionally talented. Under his cultivation, they had already reached the Peak of the Yin Yang Realm and were currently training in the outer regions. He believed they would have a chance to achieve a Breakthrough to the Return to One Realm in the future.

And he didn't have much time left; he couldn't protect Great Wei for much longer, which was why he came to find this Ximen Qing.

Qin Xiao narrowed his eyes and did not speak for the moment, his mind racing.

He was quite tempted by the conditions offered by the other party. Protecting Great Wei for a hundred years was nothing to him.

He was originally from Great Wei, so naturally, he hoped that Great Wei could be stable; this way, he and the Qin Family could continue to develop low-profile.

Moreover, this Wei Qiankun didn't have many years left to live. Once he died, Great Wei would be in his own pocket, to be dealt with as he pleased, to do whatever he wanted, with no one left to keep him in check.

He could use Great Wei's resources to cultivate and develop his own Family, allowing his Family to develop rapidly.

However, there was a problem with this, which was that after this Wei Qiankun died, all the pressure would fall on him, and the Return to One Realm Martial Artists of the other three kingdoms were not to be trifled with either!

However, this pressure was not very great for him because it was rumored that the Old Ancestors of the other three kingdoms were slightly weaker than the Great Wei Old Ancestor.

Therefore, his strength was more than enough to protect Great Wei.

Seeing that Qin Xiao did not speak or refuse, Wei Qiankun was overjoyed, which proved that the other party was somewhat tempted and that they could continue to negotiate.

Wei Qiankun immediately said: "As long as you agree, Fellow Daoist, you can make any requests you have. As long as it is within our power, we will certainly not refuse. I heard that you like beauties, Fellow Daoist. My Great Wei can search the whole country for beautiful women for you to enjoy."

Wei Qiankun knew that it was very difficult to get a Return to One Realm Martial Artist to protect Great Wei for a hundred years.

But he didn't want to give up; he had to fight for it no matter what, even if it meant paying any price.

After a quarter of an hour, Qin Xiao said slowly: "Fellow Daoist Wei, I can agree to your request, but I also have a few conditions?"

Seeing Qin Xiao agree, Wei Qiankun was overjoyed and immediately said: "What conditions? Please feel free to state them, Fellow Daoist Ximen."
