Light Novel Pub

Chapter 177: Ambushed

By the time Qin Xuan entered Xuanlong City, it was already bright daylight.

The previous inn was naturally out of the question, so Qin Xuan, using his disguised identity, found another inn.

"Waiter, I want to do some business in this Xuanlong City. Which area of business is better here?"

Qin Xuan said, rubbing his teacup.

Hearing this, the waiter, seeing the Spirit Stone Qin Xuan gave him, immediately enthusiastically introduced all the information.

After getting a clear understanding, Qin Xuan went to that area to start looking for a suitable shop.

"Why are you asking about this? You’re a Disciple of the Azure Green Sect. You can’t possibly be doing business here all day, can you?"

Han Ye asked curiously.

Hearing this, Qin Xuan just smiled.

"This is where you don’t understand. Tell me, in this Xuanlong City, what did the Four Great Families rely on to become the Four Great Families?"

Hearing this, Han Ye immediately spoke without hesitation.

"Of course, it’s their fists. The Disciples of the Four Great Families are distributed among these Five Great Sects, which is why their people can be so arrogant. The strongest Cultivator in Fire Wind City is merely at the Tian Xuan Realm, and he’s from your Qin Family, so your Qin Family’s word in Fire Wind City is even more effective than the City Lord’s."

"It's the same here."

Qin Xuan nodded.

"Of course, fists are indeed the basis for guaranteeing the Four Great Families’ status, but this is not the root cause."

Qin Xuan said, pointing to a huge market in front.

"This is it."

"Cultivation and Realm don’t appear out of thin air; they are accumulated through a large amount of resources. The reason why the Disciples of the Four Great Families can continuously have outstanding individuals is because of the resources they control."

"Throughout Xuanlong City, although the City Lord controls the largest Building Outside the Building in Xuanlong City, below the Building Outside the Building, the Four Great Families control eighty percent of Xuanlong City’s shops. These shops absorb the most resources and Spirit Stones from the entire Profound Dragon Dao, which allows the Four Great Families to continuously cultivate talents and remain standing in Xuanlong City."

"These shops are like an endless supply of blood, continuously delivery ing the resources of the entire Profound Dragon Dao to the Four Great Families."

What Cultivators compete for are these resources.

Medicinal Pills, Cultivation Techniques, martial arts, and Spirit Stones!

These are the fundamentals.

"So, Young Master, you mean...?"

Han Ye asked Qin Xuan in confusion.

"For the Qin Family to rise, this business must be brought to Xuanlong City!"

"I have already informed the Family to open a Medicine Refining Workshop here, so as not to sit idly by and consume everything."

Qin Xuan mused, a glint flashing in his eyes.

With his current Alchemy strength, the Medicinal Pills produced by the Medicine Refining Workshop would surely be able to establish themselves here. Only then could they possess more resources.

The rise of a Family cannot rely solely on him.

With this Medicine Refining Workshop, the strength of the other members of the Qin Family could also advance further.

"Fire Wind City is still too small."

After selecting a suitable shop, Qin Xuan directly bought it with Spirit Stones.

At that time, it could be directly handed over to the Qin Family members for use.

After completing these tasks, Qin Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

"Now it’s time to go back."

Although not many people in the Azure Green Sect managed him, this did not mean he could ignore the Azure Green Sect and leave for extended periods.

Besides, if he didn't return for too long, others might become suspicious.

After sending the shop’s deed and other documents back to the Family, Qin Xuan hurried to the Sect.

After leaving Xuanlong City, Qin Xuan directly used his Wind and Thunder Wings to travel.

The speed of the Wind and Thunder Wings was much faster than his previous Spirit Beast. A few hours later, Qin Xuan appeared outside the mountain range where the Azure Green Sect was located.

"Oh?"

Upon reaching the outside of the mountain range, Qin Xuan frowned slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"Why do I feel uneasy? Is someone ambushing me nearby?"

Qin Xuan paused, looking towards the center of the mountain range below. Even from a long distance, he could feel the faint murderous intent emanating from below.

Hmph!

Qin Xuan let out a cold snort.

It seemed there were indeed some who didn't know their place and wanted to attack him!

Qin Xuan pretended not to know, only continuing to accelerate.

Since these people wanted to attack him, he naturally had to give them a chance.

Putting away his Wind and Thunder Wings, Qin Xuan immediately descended.

Finding a Spirit Beast, Qin Xuan slowly entered the mountain range on its back.

At this moment, Zhao Zheng had already rushed here after being notified by others. Looking at Qin Xuan, who was swaggering forward, a cruel murderous intent flashed across Zhao Zheng’s face.

"Don't rush. Wait until he enters the encirclement before making a move. At that time, don't easily kill him. I want to thoroughly humiliate him!"

The others heard this and nodded in agreement.

After a while, as Qin Xuan walked into the encirclement, Zhao Zheng gave an order, and the others immediately rushed out.

"Haha, Qin Xuan, there’s a path to Heaven you don’t take, and a door to Hell you choose to enter. Now, kneel down and acknowledge me as your master, and I can spare your life."

Zhao Zheng said smugly.

Hearing this, Qin Xuan was momentarily stunned, then couldn't help but smile wryly.

This was truly the Heavenly Dao of Reincarnation; no one could escape it.

He had just subdued Hu Mian, and this Zhao Zheng wanted to take him as a servant.

Qin Xuan could only sigh.

He glanced at the other party, and Qin Xuan shook his head slightly.

"Zhao Senior Brother, according to the Sect's rules, fellow Sect members should help each other. Aren't you afraid of being found out by the Sect Elders for doing this?"

"This place is so close to the Sect. Once the Sect Elders find out about this, you won't be able to escape responsibility."

Hearing this, Zhao Zheng snorted coldly, shaking his head disdainfully.

"You're really courting death. What 'can't escape responsibility'? Who do you think you are?"

"The Sect Elders will stick up for a piece of trash like you."

"Exactly! Don't even bother looking in a mirror. Zhao Senior Brother has Elder Zhao Cang above him, and even Zhao Jingyan Senior Brother. If you were a direct Disciple of one of the other peaks, it would be one thing, but what use is a mere direct Disciple of Lei Yun Peak? Just a direct Disciple of a Abandoned Peak, yet you dare to act so important here?"

Qin Xuan wasn't surprised by these words.

Indeed, the Disciples of these influential Great Families didn't put people like Qin Xuan in their eyes.

If the Zhao Family hadn't dared to seek revenge when Qin Xuan first ascended the ninth step of the stone staircase.

But once Qin Xuan became a direct Disciple of Lei Yun Peak, they felt confident in retaliating against him again.

Nothing else, a direct Disciple of Lei Yun Peak, offending him was no big deal.

In contrast, the direct Disciples of the other peaks couldn't be offended.

There was only Qin Xuan on Lei Yun Peak, so offending him was just offending him.

Moreover, they had also heard that Qin Xuan had rejected the Sect Elder’s invitation to take him as a Disciple, which had greatly displeased the Elder.

Therefore, from the very beginning, they felt that this Qin Xuan was easy to deal with.

Born into a small Family from a small place, with no backing, no one here would stand up for him.

Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng looked at Qin Xuan.

"Don't resist. If you honestly submit to me, I can consider pleading for you with the Family Elder and letting you off. But if you don't know what's good for you, then die here today."

Hearing this, Qin Xuan said nothing more. He glanced at the person, a cold sneer playing on his lips.

"Are you really not afraid that the Sect Elders will find out about this and heavily punish you?"

Zhao Zheng spat at Qin Xuan.

"Still trying to buy time? Let me tell you, although this place is close to the Sect, the Sect almost never bothers with this area. Even if you die here, no one will care. We specifically chose this place to deal with you, to leave no future troubles. You might as well just wait for death obediently..."

Before Zhao Zheng could finish speaking, Qin Xuan instantly vanished from his spot. When he reappeared, his heavy sword struck Zhao Zheng's back fiercely.

"Crack!"

Zhao Zheng's spine was directly broken by Qin Xuan!

"Ah!"

Zhao Zheng screamed in pain, his lower body already unable to move.

Qin Xuan was even more ruthless. He twisted Zhao Zheng's arm off with one hand and lifted him up.

"The Elders don't even care about this place, yet you still dare to bark at me!"

Qin Xuan had thought there was someone supporting them in the dark.

Without an Elder, yet they still dared to be so arrogant, Qin Xuan was determined to make them understand the consequences.
