"It's not that I don't dare, I'm just a little embarrassed."
Lin Xiao hurriedly shook his head and smiled.
"As long as it's not that you don't dare!"
Xu Tianchong smiled gently and continued, "Nephew, now that things have come to this, I can only entrust Qing Province to you. There's no other suitable candidate, so don't shirk away!
The position of the Lord of Qing Province belongs to none other than you! "
"Thank you, Uncle Xu!"
Since Xu Tianchong had already put it this way, Lin Xiao no longer declined. He bowed seriously to Xu Tianchong and said solemnly.
"Don't worry, although I'm handing Qing Province to you, if you need my help, I'll do my best."
Xu Tianchong looked at Lin Xiao and patted him on the shoulder. After a moment of silence, he said, "Qing Sect has suffered heavy losses in the Asura Sect's attack this time. More than half of them are dead or injured. I can't joke around with the lives of the remaining people, but I won't be afraid of the Asura Sect!
I must avenge my dead brothers! "
"Avenge?"
Lin Xiao looked at Xu Tianchong in astonishment.
From Lin Xiao's point of view, Xu Tianchong had disbanded Qing Sect to protect it. However, he did not expect that Xu Tianchong would protect Qing Sect without withdrawing himself.
"That's right!
It's revenge! "
Nodding gently, Xu Tianchong looked into the distance and said firmly, "The Zhen King has killed so many innocent people in Qing Province. As the Lord of Qing Province, how can I not avenge him?
Doesn't the Zhen King care about the remnants of the Array Sect?
Then I'll kill all the remnants of the Array Sect and let him feel what I feel! "
This …
Lin Xiao looked at Xu Tianchong in astonishment.
Indeed, those who could become the Sect Leaders of the Ten Sects were not easy to deal with. Xu Tianchong usually looked very amiable, but once his bottom line was crossed, his response was very tough. Not only did he want to seek revenge from the Zhen King, he also wanted to kill all the remnants of the Array Sect!
However, Lin Xiao could also understand Xu Tianchong's mood.
Just now, in the Nine Suns Sky Burning Array, Xu Tianchong had bitterly begged the Array King to kill him and spare the people of the Azure Sect. However, the Array King didn't listen at all. He made Xu Tianchong watch the disciples of the Azure Sect and the citizens of the Azure State City die one by one in front of him. This hatred was etched into Xu Tianchong's bones.
Therefore, Xu Tianchong hated the Formation King to the bone!
To a large extent, it was precisely because Xu Tianchong chose to take revenge that he gave up the position of Qing Sect Lord and Qing Province Lord. It was because he didn't want Qing Sect and Qing Province City to be buried with him.
Under such circumstances, Xu Tianchong could only disband the Azure Sect and give up his identity as the Azure Province Lord. This was the only way for him to take revenge without implicating the Azure Sect and the Azure Province.
"Nephew, I'll leave Qing Province to you!"
At this moment, Xu Tianchong once again looked at Lin Xiao and solemnly instructed.
"Alright!"
Lin Xiao said resolutely.
Lin Xiao understood that what he took over from Xu Tianchong was not only the authority to manage Qing Province, but also the responsibility to protect Qing Province. However, he wasn't afraid.
"Good!
You're worthy of being my son-in-law. You're responsible! "
Xu Tianchong looked at Lin Xiao with admiration and said with a smile, "When I was young, I was as energetic as you. It's a pity that I'm old now!
However, even if I'm old, I won't let the Array Sect and Asura Sect off! "
"Uncle Xu, we still have to consider this at length."
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Xiao advised, "Whether it's the Array Sect or the Asura Sect, they're both very strong. We shouldn't be too radical!"
Lin Xiao was afraid that Xu Tianchong would be impulsive and go straight to the Asura Sect. If that happened, it would be over!
After all, the Asura Sect was stronger than the ten major sects combined. Even if Lin Xiao had the ancient Buddha Dipankara, he wouldn't be able to compete with the Asura Sect. At that time, he wouldn't be able to save Xu Tianchong.
"Don't worry, I won't be impulsive."
Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Xu Tianchong nodded gently and said, "Besides, I haven't recovered from my injuries yet. If I go to the Asura Sect at this time, won't I be courting death?
I'm not stupid! "
"It's good that Uncle Xu understands!"
Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Xu Qingruo was still at the Poison Lord's place and had not woken up. Lin Xiao still didn't know the real process of her being captured and brought to Meng Mountains. Even the culprit, Old Man Sun, was nowhere to be found.
Under such circumstances, Lin Xiao had to persuade Xu Tianchong in time and not let anything happen to him.
Seeing Lin Xiao's nervous look, Xu Tianchong chuckled and said helplessly, "Nephew, don't worry. I'm not the kind of person who acts on impulse. Although I'm not afraid of death, it doesn't mean that I want to die!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao laughed and looked at Xu Tianchong, "By the way, Uncle Xu, you want to hand over Qingzhou to me. What are you going to do?"
Since he had already agreed to take over Qingzhou, Lin Xiao naturally had to ask clearly.
"Don't worry about this. Just leave everything to me!"
Xu Tianchong glanced at Lin Xiao and said slowly, "I'll arrange everything. You just need to cooperate with my performance!"
"Cooperate with your performance?"
Lin Xiao looked at Xu Tianchong in surprise.
With a chuckle, Xu Tianchong said, "If you want the people of Qingzhou to be loyal to you, just the image of a 'hero' isn't enough. I'll arrange some other things to make them truly support you!"
"Uncle Xu, thank you."
At this moment, Lin Xiao didn't know what to say other than 'thank you'.
"You don't have to thank me. I should be the one thanking you!"
Gently shaking his head, Xu Tianchong said slowly, "If it weren't for you, perhaps today would be the day that Qing Sect was destroyed and Qingzhou City turned into ruins!
Nephew, you're worthy of being the Lord of Qingzhou. I also believe that you'll be an excellent Lord of Qingzhou! "
"Uncle Xu, you trust me that much?"
Lin Xiao was a little surprised by Xu Tianchong's trust.
"Of course I trust you!
However, you can rest assured that my trust in you isn't because of Qing Ruo, nor is it blind trust. It's based on my investigation! "
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Tianchong smiled and said, "In fact, I've been thinking about handing Qingzhou to you for a long time!
It's also because of this that I've investigated Youzhou and Bing Zhou. I'm very clear about how Youzhou and Bing Zhou were in the past and how they are now!
I believe that if you can manage Youzhou and Bing Zhou so well, you'll definitely treat Qingzhou well! "
This …
Hearing this, Lin Xiao was a little surprised.
Originally, Lin Xiao thought that Xu Tianchong had handed Qingzhou to him on a whim. However, it seemed that Xu Tianchong had 'premeditated' it.
"Uncle Xu, don't worry. I'll do my best to manage Qingzhou well!"
With regards to Xu Tianchong's trust, Lin Xiao nodded solemnly.
Whether it was for the system's mission or for his own morals, Lin Xiao wouldn't mistreat the people of Qingzhou. He could still guarantee this to Xu Tianchong!
