(Today there are four updates, one in the morning, afternoon, evening and at midnight. Are you all satisfied with yesterday's explosive chapter? Hehe, if you're satisfied, please continue to vote for this book.)
If Qin Wushuang had said this before the previous battle, Xi Meng Yu would have taken it as a joke and let it pass by like a gentle breeze, without any reaction.
But this battle is more victorious than a thousand boasts, and has more persuasive power than ten thousand words.
In a world where martial arts reign supreme, everything is decided by strength. Only strength can be the unshakeable truth.
After this battle, Ximen Yu also experienced Qin Wushuang's madness. He looked calm and composed, but his city was quite deep.
However, once it erupts, it's like a volcanic eruption. At the beginning of the war of words, I had already fully experienced Qin Wushuang's sharp tongue and his ability to grasp every loophole in language and respond quickly.
Unexpectedly, when it came to action, Qin Wushuang was just as unreserved, and even more frantic than when he spoke.
Especially just now in the battle, Ximen Yu clearly felt Qin Wushuang's fierce fighting style, that kind of fearless momentum, the courage and determination to survive after being placed in a desperate situation, is precisely the most valuable quality of a strong person.
An opponent who can remain calm and crazy at the same time is the most terrifying.
It's like a volcano, serene and calm when not erupting; once it explodes, it completely reveals its crazy side, with a destructive temperament.
This temperament that would rather burn jade and stone together made Ximen Yu have to take Qin Wushuang's words seriously, carefully savoring them.
He didn't doubt at all that the young man in front of him had that kind of courage and audacity.
Ximen Dafang, although the number one family in Nan Yun state, is not invincible. The older Ximen Yu gets, the more experienced he becomes, and the more thorough his understanding of worldly affairs. He considers things more comprehensively and is more stable.
In recent years, he has lost some of the straightforwardness and decisiveness of his youth, becoming more tactful and diplomatic.
It's hard to predict what will happen in life. Disaster and good fortune can occur suddenly, and often, disasters are caused by unintentional mistakes.
The current situation forces him to weigh this issue.
The core of the problem is whether it's worth being an enemy of such a vigorous and unstoppable young man.
And what kind of consequences will Sima Da's clique ultimately bear for making an enemy of someone like this!
No matter how he changed his mind, no matter how he deduced, he couldn't deduce an answer that satisfied him. He sadly discovered - in the face of this young man's threat, the mighty Ximen clan was actually helpless!
Pursue and kill?
The Thirteen Eagles of the Cold Blood are elite, but even the leader of the Cold Blooded Thirteen Eagles is inferior to Xi Men Yu. This sect master can't even get any benefits, and the Thirteen Eagles going after him will only be sending themselves to their deaths in vain.
The most frightening thing is that once this young man has made up his mind to be an enemy of the Ximen family, all sorts of sinister means will come out one after another, either by ambushing or assassinating, or using poison...
All sorts of tactics, indeed make one defenseless.
The Ximen family is wealthy and influential, with a big signboard, so their goals are also bigger.
Facing such a formidable opponent, hiding is definitely not an option. Once the other party does not play by the rules, the consequences are indeed very serious.
Kill all of Ximen's family. Although this sentence sounds very awkward to Ximen Yu, it is a possibility that cannot be avoided.
"Whether Ximen Qing is a friend or foe can be decided with just one word from the gatekeeper."
Qin Wushuang observed the words and expressions, in fact, he had already seen the contradictions in Ximen Yu's heart. Speaking out to remind him was just to break Ximen Yu's last bit of luck, letting him thoroughly see through the situation.
Ximen Yu sighed and asked, "I have only one question at the moment."
"Master Valve, may I ask."
"I don't dare ask, Qin Xiaoge, who did you learn from? Have you already received the spiritual connection?" Ximen Yu could only consider it from this direction.
Otherwise, as a child from a humble background, it would be impossible to rise so quickly in just a few years, the speed is simply comparable to lightning.
With the foundation of the Qin family, even if it was a wealthy family more than 100 years ago, it is impossible to produce such an evil spirit. The only explanation is that Qin Wushuang had another strange encounter.
And this strange encounter might just be what everyone in Baiyue Kingdom has been dreaming of but can't get - a chance to meet their soulmate!
At this point, a thread of jealousy flashed through Ximen Yu's heart uncontrollably.
How many people, can't be met but can't be sought after, a lifetime of longing, yet never had even half a point of spiritual connection. And this Qin family child, no status, no position, no innate talent, what's the reason, such good luck, just fell on his head?
But no matter how unbalanced he felt in his heart, he had to accept this reality.
Spiritual affinity is such a wonderful thing, in the world of secular martial artists, even if you practice to the peak of True Martial Realm 9th stage, you may not necessarily receive a spiritual affinity; while some True Martial Realm only have three or four stages, but because of predestined arrangement, they got a spiritual affinity.
To sum up, strength has an impact on spiritual connections, but it has never been a decisive factor.
To say something superstitious, this might be a destined encounter.
Qin Wushuang smiled but didn't respond, which made Ximen Yu even more convinced of his own speculation.
Spirit Realm, existing within the Tian Xuan Continent, yet transcending beyond the various countries of the Tian Xuan Continent. Generally speaking, strong individuals at the Spiritual Warrior level rarely participate in worldly disputes.
At least in a subordinate country like Baiyue, it is difficult for a strong and powerful warrior to emerge in a hundred years.
Even if there is such a seedling, it will soon be taken away by the suzerain state and never return to its hometown again. Even if it eventually cultivates into a strong spiritual martial artist, at most it can only bring glory to the ancestors and improve the family's status a bit. It is fundamentally impossible to directly return to serve the family.
Therefore, the strong and powerful are forever mysterious and unpredictable.
Qin Wushuang refused to reveal the truth, which is also in line with the characteristics of strong people in the spiritual world. This made Ximen Yu even more convinced that Qin Wushuang's master was related to a powerful spirit warrior.
At this thought, all of Ximen Yu's hesitation disappeared without a trace.
In the face of a Lingwu strongman, let alone Ximen Dafeng, even if it were the true martial sacred land of Baiyue State, as long as the Lingwu strongman is willing, with just a flick of his finger, he can turn the entire true martial sacred land into dust and ashes, vanishing in an instant.
With a sigh, Xi Men Yu's voice was bleak as he said: "Disperse, the engagement between my Xi Men family and the Da Qi Shi family is dissolved!"
He immediately added another sentence: "However, everything must be done according to the plan you mentioned, Qin Xiao. I, Ximen Dafu, will propose to cancel the engagement, and then the Dahe family will publicly apologize and provide symbolic compensation."
"How much compensation?"
"Symbolic compensation, would I, Ximen Dafu, have the lion open its big mouth?" Ximen Yu smiled bitterly and repeatedly. "Qin Xiaoge, my face as Ximen Dafu has been thoroughly lost to you."
Qin Wushuang shook his head and said, "Why did the master of the Ximen clan come to this conclusion? This solution is beneficial to both parties and can be considered the most ideal way to end things. At least, my Qin family and the Ximen clan will not have to be sworn enemies for generations to come. Isn't this a matter that concerns the rise and fall of our families?"
Ximen Yu could only comfort himself like this.
At the same time, he made up his mind - the Ximen family would never be enemies with the Qin family for generations to come!
"Qin Xiaoge, as the saying goes, 'heroes emerge in youth', tonight I'm hosting a banquet and inviting all the young warriors who participated in this trial from Nan Yun state, please do me the honor of attending."
Since it's been decided to make amends with the Qin family, let's take a step back. Ximen Yu is an old sly fox and naturally won't give up on maximizing his benefits.
If this can be achieved and an alliance with the Qin family is formed, it will be a great blessing in disguise for the future development of the Ximen clan.
Compared to being entangled in the spiritual realm background, what does this little concession made by Ximen Dajie, who temporarily gave up on this point, count as?
The daughter won't marry Da Xiyang, will she be worried that she can't get married? As long as the West Gate's big family is willing to drop a hint, how many of those aristocratic young masters in Nanyun State wouldn't want to curry favor with them?
"We must take this opportunity to repair our relationship with the Qin family and bring the two families closer together!" Ximen Yu secretly made up his mind.
