"Thank you for the sword, Senior!"
Qinchuan held the bronze sword in his hand. He loved it so much that he couldn't put it down. There was probably no other sword in the world that suited him better than this one.
Lion Duke saw Qinchuan's happy face and chuckled. "Don't be so happy. Let me ask you, when you helped the 10th Legion destroy my Lion Tribe's skeleton fleet, did you ever think of me, your big cousin?"
Qinchuan's expression suddenly became serious. He looked at Lion Duke seriously and said, "To be honest, if I had to choose again, I would still help the 10th Legion. It's not because I don't care about you, Senior, but because I have to protect Eastern Mountain City and the people of the Star Dragon Federation!"
Qinchuan said this after careful consideration. He didn't want to lie to Lion Duke, and he was sure that Lion Duke didn't want to hear a lie. Therefore, he chose to be honest. If Lion Duke was angry and wanted to kill him, he could only accept his fate.
Lion Duke looked at Qinchuan with deep eyes. After a while, he said, "I am very satisfied with your answer."
When Qin Chuan heard this, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. However, he did not show it on his face. His expression remained solemn and serious.
"You are a human, and I am a monster. No matter what our personal relationship is, we should uphold justice in the face of major issues. You didn't do anything wrong by severely damaging the Lion Tribe in order to protect the human world."
Lion Duke looked at Qinchuan meaningfully and said, "Moreover, I didn't want the Lion Tribe to invade Eastern Mountain."
The Lion Duke was traveling through the mountains and rivers of the Star Dragon Federation. One day, when he was eating in a restaurant, he accidentally overheard someone talking about the war in the East Mountain. Only then did he learn about the Lion Tribe's invasion of the human world. After learning the whole story, he was extremely shocked and angry. He didn't understand why the Lion Tribe would appear in the East Mountain!
Looking at Lion Duke's gloomy face, Qinchuan was puzzled. He asked, "Is there something wrong with the Lion Tribe appearing in the frontline?"
"Of course not!"
Lion Duke snorted coldly and said, "The Lion Tribe is located in the center of the Demon Realm, and we protect the Demon Court. As long as you humans don't charge straight into the Demon Court, our men don't have to participate in the war.
But now, our Lion Tribe has suddenly appeared on the front line. Isn't this strange?! "
After listening to Lion Duke's explanation, Qinchuan finally realized the problem. He pondered for a moment and asked, "Could it be that the Lion Tribe took the initiative to fight?"
Lion Baron sneered, "I don't think that idiot Shi Fen has the guts to take the initiative to fight!
In my opinion, the appearance of the Lion Division at the frontlines must be related to Lion Fen! "
Qinchuan looked at Lion Duke and asked, "Senior, are you planning to go to the Lion Tribe to find out what's going on?"
Lion Duke was silent for a moment, then he picked up the wine jug on the table and took a big gulp. He then said to Qinchuan, "Although I am no longer the king of the Lion Tribe, and have even been expelled from the tribe, there are still many of my old friends and subordinates in the Lion Tribe. If I don't find out what's going on, I won't be at ease."
Qinchuan nodded, indicating that he understood Lion Duke's feelings.
"Kid, why don't you come with me?"
Lion Duke looked at Qinchuan with a subtle expression and said, "I'll take you to see the demeanor of the Lion Tribe's young men.
They will definitely give you a warm welcome. "
Qinchuan's face almost turned green when he heard this. Going to the Lion Tribe?
A warm welcome?
I'm afraid I'll be torn apart by the Lion Tribe!
Seeing the change in Qinchuan's expression, Lion Duke laughed and said, "What? Do you think I can't protect you?
Don't worry, but I'll use my monster powers to disguise you. They won't be able to recognize you. "
Even though Lion Duke had given his word, Qinchuan was still a little nervous. He couldn't help but ask, "Big Cousin, you come and go like the wind. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to bring a burden like me along?"
"There's nothing inappropriate about it. I can come and go like the wind, and I can also come and go like the wind with you." Lion Duke smiled and said, "Don't even think about rejecting me. You're going with me!"
Qinchuan smiled bitterly. Lion Duke had already insisted that he should come with him. If he were to refuse, then he'd be the one being shameless.
Lion Duke was smiling at him as if they had a good relationship, but if they were to fall out, then he'd be the one to suffer!
"I still have an elder with me. I want to talk to him first."
Qinchuan had a headache. He said to Lion Duke, "Big Cousin, wait for me here for a moment. I'll be right back."
"I know. You're talking about that Qin Jue. Go." Lion Duke looked in the direction of the door and said, "She's guarding outside."
Qinchuan was a little surprised. He stood up and walked out of the room. He opened the door and looked around, but he didn't find any trace of Qin Jue. At this moment, Qin Jue's figure suddenly appeared in front of him and asked, "Are you looking for me?"
When Qinchuan saw that Qin Jue was really outside the door, he said to Qin Jue, "Why did you follow me?"
"I'm worried about you."
Qin Jue looked at the private room with vigilance and said to Qinchuan, "I can't see through that person's strength!"
With Qin Jue's perfected Gold Core stage, the only person who could make her unable to see through him was the Nascent Soul stage!
Although Qin Jue didn't dare believe it, she had to admit that the person who was chatting and laughing with Qinchuan in the private room was most likely a Nascent Soul stage cultivator!
Of course, it wasn't impossible that the other party had a treasure that could conceal his aura. However, from the fact that Qinchuan had come out to look for her, the other party had clearly discovered her hiding outside the private room. This meant that the other party's cultivation was definitely not low!
"He's a relative of mine." Qinchuan awkwardly explained to Qin Jue, "He's a cousin of mine."
"Cousin?" Qin Jue frowned. "Why didn't I know you had such a cousin?"
Qin Jue had a very clear understanding of Qinchuan's network. She had never known that Qinchuan had such a high cultivation cousin!
"It's a long story. You just need to know that you're not his match. Don't think about testing him."
At this moment, Qinchuan had no choice but to remind Qin Jue. If Qin Jue wanted to test the Lion Duke and ended up finding out something, it would be bad.
When he heard Qinchuan say that he wasn't a match for his cousin, Qin Jue understood that Qinchuan was vaguely reminding him that his cousin was a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. His guess was right!
"My cousin wants to do something with me, so you can go back to Eastern Mountain City first. I'll go back by myself after a while. As for my safety, you don't have to worry."
"Where are you going?"
"To a place where you should be very enthusiastic."
Very enthusiastic?
Qin Jue's face was full of question marks. Could it be that he was going to acknowledge his relatives?
