"Acknowledge you as my master?
No way! "
Qin Shi smacked his lips. He clearly knew what Pu Quan wanted to say, so he rejected him mercilessly.
"Why?" Pu Quan was stunned.
Qin Shi hesitated for a moment, then he straightened his body and said seriously, "Think about it, I'm such a talented man. Why would I acknowledge you as my master?
Isn't that the same as destroying my future? "
"Pfft, brat, I'm a dignified Talisman Magician. Those who want to acknowledge me as their master can line up from the east gate to the west gate of Rainbow Cloud City. How dare you say that I'm destroying your future?" Pu Quan was furious.
"Then why don't you look for them?"
Qin Shi shrugged as he spread his arms out nonchalantly.
He really wouldn't acknowledge Luo Feng as his master. He didn't want to be bound to Rainbow Cloud City or even the Red Flame Empire, so he would never acknowledge Luo Feng as his master.
Pu Quan's smile froze, and he scolded, "You … you're pissing me off!
You brat, do you know what it means to be grateful?
Do you know how to be grateful?
Thank you for coming to my rescue! "
"Hehe, these are two different things …"
"How are they two different things?" Pu Quan scolded angrily, "Don't try to fool me again with what happened last time."
"Err … these are two different things. I'll treat you to a drink later, but regarding the matter of acknowledging me as your master … there's no need to talk about it." Qin Shi scratched his head awkwardly and smiled foolishly.
Pu Quan was unwilling to give up, but when he was about to open his mouth, Qin Shi had already turned around and walked towards Luo Xuexian. This made the corner of his eyes twitch, and he suddenly became speechless.
"Xuexian, it's fine now!"
Qin Shi whispered when he returned to Luo Xuexian's side.
Luo Xuexian smiled, but it was a forced smile, "Hmm … I believe that Young Master Qin can do it."
"Xuexian!"
At this moment, a whistling gust of wind blew.
Luo Feng was burning with anger. He swept through the forest like a gust of wind and landed beside Luo Xuexian.
Standing next to Luo Xuexian, he probed her body with his spiritual energy and immediately sensed the damage in her spiritual veins. His body trembled, "Xuexian, your spiritual veins …"
"Father …"
When Luo Xuexian saw Luo Feng, tears welled up in her eyes. She sobbed and lowered her head. "I'm unfilial … I can't participate in the competition in Purgatory … I can't bring honor to the Luo family."
"It's not your fault …"
Luo Feng's body trembled uncontrollably as he clenched his fists tightly. "The Wei Clan is really going too far!"
"Let's go, Dad will bring you home!"
He picked up Luo Xuexian and leaped toward the Luo family.
Qin Shi hesitated for a moment before finally following Luo Feng, leaving Pu Quan alone in the dense forest.
Pu Quan was depressed, but his eyes were burning with unwillingness, as if he had to win or die trying. He caught up to Qin Shi, "Hmph, I don't believe this. Do you think I, Pu Quan, can't deal with you?"
…
The Luo family.
Luo Feng sent Luo Xuexian back to her room to rest while Qin Shi and Luo Tingting took care of her in the room.
Luo Feng left the room and called for a meeting in the main hall.
Entering the main hall, he closed his eyes and sat at the head of the throne with a heavy expression. He held the dragon head of the throne in his hand, and it kept creaking.
Luo Yiming, the third son of the Luo family, Luo Jinxin, Luo Haiqing, and the other collateral descendants were enraged after learning about Luo Xuexian.
"Father, let's fight it out with the Wei Clan. We can't let this matter go!"
"That's right, the Wei Clan has really gone too far in the past twenty years. They don't even put the Luo family in their eyes!"
Luo Yiming suddenly stood up and clenched his fists in self-blame. "I'll go and kill them!"
"Stop right there!"
Luo Feng opened his eyes and roared.
"Father!" Luo Yiming gritted his teeth indignantly.
"What can you solve if you go?"
After a moment of silence, Luo Feng finally spoke. His eyes were bloodshot. "Right now, the most important thing is the competition in Purgatory!
Although there are two powers in Rainbow Cloud City, the Wei Clan has already surpassed us … "
"If we still can't get the Purgatory Tower, I'm afraid the Wei Clan will attack the Luo family in less than twenty years …" As the head of the family, Luo Feng had a long-term vision. "At that time, not only Xuexian, but the entire Luo family will die!"
For a moment, the main hall was silent.
It was so quiet that it was almost deathly still. They all understood what Luo Feng meant.
"Yiming, if you want to avenge Xuexian, then win the competition in Purgatory in a month!" Luo Feng spoke again, breaking the silence in the main hall.
Luo Yiming paused and said, "I definitely will!"
"But Patriarch … now that something happened to Xuexian, the juniors of our family who can participate are only the collateral descendants." Some of the Luo family elders hesitated for a moment before revealing the secret.
The main hall was silent again, and then there was a lot of discussion.
Yes, with Xuexian's accident, the Luo family had already lost the opportunity to participate in Purgatory.
Of the Luo family's collateral descendants, there were a few juniors who could represent them. However, the strongest among them was only at the early stage of the Spirit Breaking Realm.
The Wei Clan's three young masters were at the middle stage of the Spirit Breaking Realm, and the eldest young master, Wei Yan, was at the peak of the late stage of the Spirit Breaking Realm. With such strength, the Luo family had no chance of winning.
What to do …
Amidst the silence, the Luo family's first elder, Luo Xuan, suddenly coughed a few times and said, "I have someone I can recommend."
Luo Feng's eyes flashed with a strange light. "Who?"
"The Zhao Clan's Zhao Xin."
Luo Xuan pondered for a moment before saying, "I believe everyone knows Zhao Xin's feelings for Xuexian. As long as the two of them are married now, Zhao Xin can represent the Luo family in the competition!
His strength is at the middle stage of the Spirit Breaking Realm. He might be able to help the Luo family, "Luo Xuan added, his eyes shining brightly.
Luo Feng's expression turned ugly, and he gripped the dragon throne tightly. "You want Xuexian to get married now?"
"What else?
Xuexian caused the Luo family to lose a chance. Can't she make a small sacrifice? "Luo Xuan suddenly became arrogant as he questioned Luo Feng.
"This is not Xuexian's fault!"
"Then is it our fault?
We waited bitterly for 20 years, and because of her carelessness, we were pushed into despair? "Luo Xuan's words tugged at the heartstrings of the Luo family.
All the collateral family members discussed this, their voices filled with complaints.
Luo Yiming and Luo Jinxin both frowned at this sight.
Luo Yiming clenched his fists and thought to himself, This old fox often gets close to the Zhao Clan and always goes against Father. I should have guessed that he would stir up trouble at this critical juncture!
Being suppressed by his clansmen, Luo Feng fell into a difficult position.
Luo Feng had some understanding of Zhao Xin. He was a typical profligate son of a wealthy family. He was extremely unwilling to marry his daughter to such a person.
Moreover, Luo Xuexian did not like Zhao Xin at all. In fact, she even somewhat detested him.
"No, I'll think of another way." Luo Feng finally shook his head.
"Clan Head, you have to think this through. You can't ruin the entire Luo family for your own selfish desires!" Luo Xuan narrowed his eyes. A cold gleam flashed in his eyes as he purposely emphasized the word 'selfish'.
Some of the elders and attendants of the collateral family also became restless. A few of them stepped forward and said, "That's right. Right now, Young Master Zhao Xin is our only choice."
Luo Haizhu, Luo Xuan's son, sneered mockingly, "Haha, Luo Xuexian is already like this. It's good enough that someone is willing to marry a woman who has been trampled on, yet she's still being picky?"
"Luo Haizhu, say that again!"
"Bang!"
Luo Feng slammed his palm on the dragon throne, shattering the dragon's head. Rage surged in his heart.
Luo Yiming and Luo Jinxin were even more furious. Their younger sister was humiliated, and they flew into a rage, "Luo Haizhu, say that again. Do you believe that I won't kill you?"
"Yo … kill me?
If you are so capable, why don't you go look for the Wei Clan?
Why are you acting so arrogant in your own home? "Luo Haizhu disapproved, his voice purposefully mocking.
Luo Feng clenched his fists, "Luo Haizhu, you …"
However, at this moment, a mocking voice resounded in the hall, "Haha, Patriarch Luo Feng, why are you quarreling with this bunch of lowly people?
Isn't that degrading? "
"Who is it?"
The hall was startled, and everyone's gazes looked toward the entrance.
Qin Shi flicked his sleeves, stepped over the threshold, and entered the hall, "Everyone is here. Just in time!"
"Young Master Qin …"
"Qin Shi?" Luo Feng, Luo Yiming, and the others were stunned.
Luo Xuan stood up. He did not know Qin Shi, and his voice was oppressive as he rebuked, "Who are you?"
Glancing at Luo Xuan, Qin Shi's eyes were cold. He had heard everything that Luo Xuan had said just now. Because of this, he did not give Luo Xuan any face, "Who am I?
I'm your Grandpa Stone! "
The hall was startled. No one had expected that Qin Shi would speak to Luo Xuan like this.
It was the same for Luo Feng, Luo Yiming, and the others.
Luo Xuan's face turned grim. No matter what, he was someone with half a foot in the grave. Being scolded by a brat who was still wet behind his ears made him instantly furious. He raised his hand and sent out two beams of spirit energy, "Stinking brat, you're courting death!"
"Luo Xuan, don't offend him. He is the benefactor of the Luo Family!" Luo Feng's eyes narrowed, but it was already too late to stop him.
As the spirit energy approached Qin Shi, Qin Shi tilted his head disapprovingly.
Bang!
"Old bald donkey, if you want to hurt my disciple, you have to ask for my permission first!" At this moment, a black shadow flashed into the Luo Family's hall and blocked the spirit energy like an iron wall.
This black shadow was Pu Quan, and he was like a haunting ghost that had been pestering Qin Shi.
Qin Shi did not mind this. It just so happened that he had a free bodyguard.
Facing Pu Quan, Luo Xuan's expression became serious. He was at the middle stage of the King Spirit Realm, but he was actually blocked with a single attack?
He roared in a low voice, "Sir, this is my Luo Family. Could it be that you want to go against my Luo Family?"
"Go against me? What can you do to me?"
Unexpectedly, Pu Quan did not give him any face at all. He pointed at Luo Xuan and scolded, "Today, I'll tell your Luo Family that if my disciple is harmed in the slightest, your Luo Family will be buried with him!"
What!
These words were too arrogant, weren't they?
The Luo Family was a great family in Rainbow Cloud City, and even the Wei Family's Patriarch did not dare to say such words.
Because of this, everyone started to guess Pu Quan's identity.
"Cough, cough, old fellow, who is your disciple?" Qin Shi at the side curled up the corners of his mouth and corrected him.
Luo Feng had an expression of helplessness. He had seen Pu Quan before, and he knew Pu Quan's strength. If they were to compete in spirit energy, perhaps he would be superior, but the problem was that Pu Quan's main cultivation was not spirit energy.
Luo Xuan focused his eyes, and a strand of spirit energy condensed in his hand, which surged toward Pu Quan. "Haha, you talk big!
I want to see just how capable you are! "
Bang!
However, Pu Quan merely widened his eyes, and the spirit energy directly collapsed in the air. "You overestimate yourself!"
"Spirit energy?"
Luo Xuan was shocked, and his eyes instantly filled with terror.
Everyone in the Luo Family's main hall was shocked, and their faces were filled with disbelief.
They knew Luo Xuan's strength, and he was second only to Luo Feng in the Luo Family.
However, he was actually completely defeated by Pu Quan?
Seeing this scene, Qin Shi had his hands in his pockets, and he maintained a watch from the side. He needed this kind of deterrence from Pu Quan.
Pu Quan snorted coldly, and he actually raised his hand with killing intent. A strand of spirit energy that was like a soaring dragon condensed in the Luo Family's main hall, and a single strike actually sealed Luo Xuan's entire body, causing him to be unable to move in the slightest.
