518: I've lived this long for nothing.

"In front of a Genius, age is not a measure of strength at all."

"Only those without talent would use age as an excuse."

"Why were you able to become the spear immortal? It's because of talent. And, you also had a good master."

"If you didn't have talent, even if you lived until old age, you wouldn't have achieved the status of spear immortal."

"Prince Duan is not someone who can be measured by common logic; you have always been judging this matter with prejudice," Baili Dongjun said.

Sikong Changfeng fell silent; he knew his Senior Brother was telling the truth.

There was a reason why he was like this.

Because, ever since his daughter escorted Ye Anshi to Snow Moon City with Lei Wujie, Tang Lian, and the others last time, his daughter's personality had undergone a huge change.

His daughter, who usually practiced her martial arts diligently, had no interest in training lately and spent all day dazing off.

How could he not know? His daughter had fallen for someone, and the culprit behind it all was none other than Duan Zhengchun.

Duan Zhengchun was excellent, but he had too many women around him; he didn't want his daughter to get caught up in harem struggles.

Therefore, whenever Duan Zhengchun was mentioned, he would subconsciously belittle him. There were indeed some prejudices involved.

However, this was also him as a father refusing to let his daughter fall into a fire pit.

At this time, Baili Dongjun also noticed his Junior Brother's abnormality.

"You didn't do anything detrimental to Duan Zhengchun, did you?"

"How is that possible! I just..."

"Sigh... Senior Brother, I'm also very helpless."

"Haven't you noticed that Qianluo has rarely gone out since the last incident?" Sikong Changfeng sighed helplessly.

"Hmm? What's wrong? What happened to Qianluo?" Baili Dongjun looked at his Junior Brother with a Face full of confusion.

Why did the conversation suddenly shift to Qianluo? Could it be that his Junior Brother's prejudice against Duan Zhengchun was because of that girl, Qianluo?

"Sigh, ever since the escort of Ye Anshi, this girl has become like a different person. She doesn't practice much anymore, just dazes off by herself every day, and sometimes even giggles foolishly."

"In this situation, there is only one possibility: this girl is suffering from unrequited love."

"And the object of this unrequited love is none other than this Duan Zhengchun," Sikong Changfeng said irritably.

Suddenly, Baili Dongjun understood what was going on.

So, that was where the problem lay.

But it made sense; Sikong Changfeng treasured his daughter very much.

If she were looking for a partner under normal circumstances, he wouldn't have any objections.

But if the target was Duan Zhengchun or the Imperial Family, Sikong Changfeng would definitely not agree.

The events that happened back then gave them all a bad impression of the Imperial Family.

Sikong Changfeng was absolutely unwilling to let his daughter marry into the Imperial Family.

However, now that Qianluo had already fallen, no wonder he had prejudices against Duan Zhengchun.

Duan Zhengchun could be considered a member of the Imperial Family, and he already had many wives. As the number one spear immortal of Northern Li, how could Sikong Changfeng be willing to let his daughter become someone else's concubine?

Besides, who knows what would happen in the future? What if she were mistreated?

"So that's how it is. I was wondering why a normally clever person like you suddenly had a prejudice against Duan Zhengchun; it's because of Qianluo."

"But, Junior Brother, matters of the heart need guidance, not obstruction," Baili Dongjun said helplessly, patting his Junior Brother's shoulder.

"I know that, but you know what that girl's temper is like."

"How about, Senior Brother, you help me go and persuade her?" Sikong Changfeng looked at his Senior Brother with a glimmer of hope.

"Me? Forget it. I can't understand the thoughts of young people nowadays," Baili Dongjun waved his hand quickly.

"Sigh, this can't go on."

"If she's set on it, won't our generations be messed up in the future?"

"How would I Face Second Senior Sister then? Originally she was my elder, but in that case, wouldn't I become her elder?"

"If Second Senior Sister finds out, she will definitely skin me alive," Sikong Changfeng said, wanting to cry but having no tears.

"Oh, since you can't figure it out, then don't think about it. It only adds to your troubles."

"You have to believe that things will work out in the end. Do you want Qianluo to hate you or thank you?"

"You just need to explain the pros and cons clearly to her. At that time, how she chooses will be her own business."

"After all, children grow up and have their own ideas."

"Besides, I think Prince Duan isn't bad, is he? Otherwise, how could your Senior Sister, someone with such high standards, take a liking to him?" Baili Dongjun smiled and patted his Junior Brother's shoulder.

Sikong Changfeng frowned in thought; those words seemed to make sense.

"No matter the outcome, if Duan Zhengchun dares to bully Qianluo, even if I have to risk this old life, I'll make him pay," Sikong Changfeng finally sighed helplessly, uttering harsh words to express his frustration.

Baili Dongjun shook his head helplessly.

Let alone you, even if you add me, risking our lives wouldn't do anything to him.

"Alright, let's watch. There might be a big battle next," Baili Dongjun said, shaking his head.

The Sword Guardian raised his hand, and within the range of the Sword Intent, all the precious swords soared into the sky and gathered above him.

"Boy, let this old man see your Duan Family's lineage martial arts, the Six Meridian Divine Sword," the Sword Guardian snorted coldly.

"Six Meridian Divine Sword? If I were to use it, you wouldn't even have a chance to make a move," Duan Zhengchun shook his head.

With his current strength, if he were to use the Six Meridian Divine Sword, even he wouldn't know how powerful it would be.

This Sword Guardian was truly confident, actually making such a request.

"Hmph, arrogant and ignorant. Even if your Duan Family Old Ancestor were here, he wouldn't dare say such a thing."

"Ignorant junior, today, this old man will let you know the price of arrogance," the Sword Guardian snorted coldly, the Sword Intent on his body becoming even more turbulent.

The precious swords suspended in the air all emitted a series of humming sounds.

"Hmm, the momentum is not bad, but it's still not enough. If Eternal Life Li were here, he might make me take it somewhat seriously. As for you, you've lived all these years for nothing."

"Spending every day working in isolation, wasting your prime years. Now you're only in the Half-Step Shenyou Realm, not even in the Earth Immortal Realm. Where do you get the confidence to make a move against me?" Duan Zhengchun shook his head helplessly.

Duan Zhengchun's words made the Sword Guardian's expression even uglier.

Back then, his fame was such that even Eternal Life Li had to give him some Face.

When did a junior dare to speak to him like this?

"Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Ancestor..."

The Sword Guardian shouted angrily, and the countless swords suspended above his head charged straight at Duan Zhengchun.

Looking at the flying swords, Duan Zhengchun's Face was calm. He just stood there, with no intention of defending at all.

"Prince Duan, get out of the way!" Ye Xiaoying shouted in a hurry to remind him.

"Don't worry, these alone can't hurt me." Duan Zhengchun turned back and gave Ye Xiaoying a reassuring smile.
