Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Lingxiao Sect Disciples Never Abuse Power to Bully Others

Translator: 549690339

Qin Changqing said indifferently: “My cultivation is not as good as my junior brother, so I have to go all out. Besides, this matter concerns the lifelong happiness of Xue’er and me. How can I not take it seriously?”

Murong Ba said solemnly: “Can I take this as your attitude towards the Murong Family? You talk about a marriage proposal, but you show no mercy to Xue’er’s younger brother… Xue’er, is this the husband you chose?”

“Grandfather, I…

Murong Xue bit her lip, “Grandfather, my senior brother’s actions were indeed a bit heavy-handed, but you also know about Ao Tian’s temper. With his arrogance and domineering attitude, what will he do if he meets an opposing cultivator when he goes out in the future?”

“Hmph! You’ve grown bold, daring to teach me a lesson!” Murong Ba snorted coldly and looked at Qin Changqing: “Qin Daoyou, the matter of the marriage proposal is of great importance. Allow my Murong Family to discuss and give you an answer later. Before a conclusion is reached, please let Xue’er return to the mansion.”

Qin Changqing shook his head: “I don’t care about your discussion, but Xue’er must stay by my side.”

Murong Ba’s face darkened: “Xue’er has been away from home for a long time, and her father misses her very much. How can you hinder a father and daughter from meeting?”

“Meeting? That’s simple. I’ll go with Xue’er.” Qin Changqing smiled, “And I can meet my future father-in-law too.”

“You’ve gone too far!” Murong Ba shouted angrily, “My Murong Family’s daughter is not yet married, and your behavior, Qin Daoyou, jeopardizes her reputation!”

With that, his aura surged, releasing the Foundation Establishment Peak’s cultivation without restraint, his clothes fluttering without wind, exuding an imposing air!

Unexpectedly, the sound of a sword suddenly rang out.

Clang-

A cold light flashed, and Murong Ba staggered back a few steps, his eyes full of shock as he stared at the woman standing beside Qin Changqing.

“You!

Qin Lingshuang said coldly: “Think carefully before you speak. Consider the consequences before you act.”

Outside the Murong Mansion, there was dead silence.

As the sword light streaked by, the red lantern hung on the beam of the gate fell to the ground, shattering on impact.

Everyone’s eyes followed the sound, looking at Qin Lingshuang in unison, who was holding the sword in her right hand, standing silently beside Qin Changqing.

Last time, he fought for her; this time, she would fight for him.

Gululu-

Swallowing noises could be heard.

“So… this young lady is the most formidable one.”

“Forgive me for being blind, I thought she was just an ordinary disciple.”

“The cultivation of the old Murong Family master is Foundation Establishment Peak. Although he has no hope for the Golden Elixir stage, his strength should not be underestimated.”

“This woman is even stronger.”

“As expected of someone from Lingxiao Sect.”

What was initially thought to be just a bystander turned out to be the main character.

Upon looking at Qin Lingshuang again, she was wearing a shallow blue dress, her long hair fluttering, looking like a celestial beauty from the mortal world.

Murong Ba was astonished. He could clearly feel that Qin Lingshuang’s cultivation was inferior to his own, but now that he was locked in her gaze, a strong sense of impending crisis welled up within him.

He then realized that the gap between the disciples of a large sect and the Cultivation Families like theirs was too vast!

With the same cultivation, the core disciples of the sect could exert a fighting power far beyond that of ordinary Loose Cultivators.

“Who are you?” Murong Ba asked solemnly.

“Oh, her? She is my junior sister, Qin Lingshuang.” Qin Changqing said with a smile, completely unconcerned with the idea of living off his junior sister.” What’s wrong with men living off women?

Moreover, ordinary people couldn’t enjoy such a privilege even if they wanted to. “Qin Lingshuang?”

Murong Ba’s face changed.

He thought of the ranking of the top ten in the Lingxiao Sect’s Grand Competition, the female disciple Qin Lingshuang, who defeated the Tier 10 Foundation Establishment with her Tier 8 Foundation Establishment!

This girl was actually his sister disciple?

It had to be said that Murong Ba’s intelligence was a bit outdated.

Or it could be said that it wasn’t easy for people outside the sect to get such information.

Otherwise, with a little inquiry, he would know about Qin Changqing’s situation in the secret realm and his relationship with Qin Lingshuang.

“Grandfather.” At the moment when Murong Ba was hesitating, Murong Xue spoke up: “Xue’er came back to the family for two reasons: one is to celebrate your birthday, and the other is to inform you of my decision. My senior brother and I already have a deep bond and have promised each other our lives. I hope you can allow my request for the sake of your beloved granddaughter.” Murong Xue knew what was important and knew what to say at the right time.

She was well aware of Murong Ba’s character – to put it bluntly, he was a bully who only cared about profit.

Her father’s incident was also due to Murong Bat s decision; otherwise, he wouldn’t have ended up crippled.

But after all, he was her grandfather, and Murong Xue didn’t want her marriage to cause trouble for the Murong Family.

Murong Ba’s eyes flickered, and he suddenly sighed: “Fine. Since you’ve decided, then… ‘

“Wait!”

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

The crowd parted.

Seeing the people coming, Murong Ba had a bad feeling in his heart.

“Ah, it turns out to be the Gongsun Family Patriarch. I apologize for the oversight.” He bowed his hands to the newcomer.

The man who spoke was a middle-aged man dressed in a brocade robe, with a resolute face and an air of authority. Gongsun Ming, the current head of the Gongsun Family, had reached the Foundation Establishment Peak many years ago and was said to be half-step into the Golden Elixir stage.

Qin Changqing looked at him, and information about the other party surfaced in his mind.

Gongsun Ming was much younger than Murong Ba and currently held a position in the Dayan Dynasty, serving as one of the four leaders of Yinxu Prefecture. The four leaders of Yinxu Prefecture corresponded to the four deacons of the Lingxiao Sect, and this correspondence was obviously not coincidental.

Several people accompanied Gongsun Ming, one of which was walking side by side with him. He looked about thirty years old, and Qin Changqing guessed that he must be Gongsun Yang, the one who wanted to marry Murong Xue.

The Gongsun Family’s power was far beyond that of the Murong Family.

It was said that the Gongsun Family’s ancestors had already reached the Golden Elixir stage, but they had never shown themselves to the public; no one knew if it was true or not.

“Murong Family Patriarch, ” Gongsun Ming glanced at Qin Changqing and Qin Lingshuang, then continued indifferently, “From your tone just now, it seems you intend to agree to this marriage?”

Murong Ba was at a loss for words.

“Do you still remember that you promised to marry Murong Xue to my son?

Now you’re going back on your word. Is this the way the Murong Family always goes back on their word, or do you think my Gongsun Family’s face is not as good as a Lingxiao Sect disciple?”

Facing Gongsun Ming’s questioning, Murong Ba could only bite the bullet and say, “Gongsun Daoyou, you can see the situation for yourself. I really have no choice.”

“Since you have no choice, leave it to my Gongsun Family to handle it.”

Gongsun Ming could naturally hear the insinuation in Murong Bat s words, but he was trying not to offend either Qin Changqing or his own family.

In this case, he couldn’t be bothered to waste time arguing with Murong Ba.

“Qin Daoyou,” Gongsun Ming’s expression remained calm, “Since you’re a disciple of the Lingxiao Sect, you shouldn’t interfere in our family affairs. If everyone was like you and used the Lingxiao Sect to pressure others, there would be no need for others to marry, you’d marry all the girls, and there would be no need for others to do business, you would take it all.”

Qin Changqing replied modestly, “Patriarch Gongsun, you’re overreacting.

Lingxiao Sect disciples never take advantage of their position.”

Gongsun Ming snorted lightly, “Then what are you doing now?”

Qin Changqing said, “It’s just that I personally like to take advantage of my position..”
