Chapter 1676: Chapter 1708: When a Fake Jerk ets a Real Jerk
Qin Residence.
In a side courtyard, within the grand hall.
Blue smoke curled around.
Qin Shuang savored the Enlightennt Tea, fragrance lingering on her lips and teeth. Just as she was about to recite poetry to add a scholarly air, she was stunned by the boldness of the four who were with her.
These four were carefree, clinking their teacups together and then chugging the contents down, even swallowing the Enlightennt Tea Leaves whole.
This is a tea ceremony, not a drinking binge; even if you are ancient cultivators who do not need Enlightennt Tea to advance your cultivation level, there’s no need to behave like mountain bandits, is there?
“May we walk freely within the Qin Family estate?”
asked Wu Tianlong.
“Within this small courtyard of my daughter, you may, but other areas have designated overseers. If you enter without permission, misunderstandings may arise and that would be detrintal.”
Qin Shuang silently put down her Enlightennt Tea Leaves. She realized that these cultivators were different from those pretentious young nobles she usually encountered, they were too real, frighteningly so.
In truth, she doesn’t enjoy drinking tea and reciting poetry, but the environnt in the Abyssal Domain over the years had forced her to converse about the ancient and present with those who only make terrible poetry.
Wu Tianchou: “This courtyard is too small, nothing much to stroll about.”
Wu Dazhuang: “We wish to et the Family Head of the Qin Family, could you perhaps make an introduction?”
Qin Shuang: “In two days, there will be a martial arts contest for marriage; the Family Head will be present in person. If you can prevail, you will be granted an audience with the Family Head.”
Wu Tianlong: “That’s right, take first place on the stage and marry Immortal Xiu Fang, and if not, then marry Miss Shuang’er.”
With these words spoken, silence fell over the scene for a mont.
Wu Tianlong looked proud, feeling that his words were grand and that any woman should be overwheld by his domineering aura.
“Brother Heavenly Dragon is quite generous, embracing the world. Unlike Brother Heavenly Dragon, I’m not interested in the Qin Family’s eldest daughter.”
Li Xiaobai coughed lightly and said flatly.
Indeed, Wu Tianlong is getting on in years, doesn’t even know how to flirt with girls, opening his mouth only to put them off.
Qin Shuang wanted to say sothing, not yet having the chance when a piercing voice ca from outside the hall.
“From afar, I heard soone spouting nonsense here, not even placing the Qin Family’s immortal in their eyes; this princely heir must see who you are!”
Several figures entered the grand hall, the leading figure strode in with a slim build and a malevolent air between his brows.
“Shuang’er, who are these young gentlen, and why have they co visiting without a word?”
“Qin Yu, what are you doing here? Do you now dare to barge into even my private courtyard?”
Upon seeing him, a flicker of disgust flashed in Qin Shuang’s eyes as she coldly spoke.
“I’ve heard there were young experts invited to the residence, so I beca curious and ca to see for myself.”
Qin Yu wore a wicked smile on his face, sizing up Li Xiaobai with a gaze full of aggression.
“Speaking of which, you just returned from a Secret Realm, hurriedly eting the Family Head; have you brought back so treasure?”
“You’ve been spying on !”
Upon hearing this, Qin Shuang’s delicate face instantly darkened, realizing her movents were completely monitored, every step tracked.
“This is a husband’s concern for his soon-to-be bride just before their nuptial night.”
“Who are you, daring to flirt with my fiancée from the Qin Family? Do you have a death wish?”
Qin Yu’s eyes were cold, fixed on Li Xiaobai—the young man who kept pestering Qin Shuang.
Li Xiaobai picked his nose, glanced sidelong and said, “Young man, watch your words carefully. My family’s depth is beyond your grasp.”
“Exactly, whose belt ca loose, letting out this big simpleton?”
“Did this guy overhear us just now; should we eliminate the root?”
“Only the dead can keep secrets forever!”
Wu Tianchou and the other two couldn’t care less about Qin Yu, speaking among themselves to decide whether to act. They were confident they could kill him without alerting anyone.
“Impudent!”
“How dare you be so insulting to my young master!”
“My young master is of the direct lineage of the Qin Family, a standout among the younger generation of experts, and yet you had the gall to verbally insult him? You’re dood!”
The two sycophants behind Qin Yu shouted sharply.
This is the “excellent match” Qin Shuang spoke of; indeed, nothing special, Li Xiaobai pondered. He preferred not to cause a big scene, yet sohow kept attracting these annoying flies.
Unfortunately, this backup plan actually has a fiancé, appearing at the most inconvenient ti.
After a mont’s thought, he flicked his hand, tossing a token.
“Wu!”
A large ‘Wu’ fell at Qin Yu’s feet.
Qin Yu looked at the token, frowning slightly in confusion, “Wu? Wu Family? There’s no notable family nad Wu in the city.”
“Look carefully, this is the ‘Wu’ of the Wu Clan.”
Li Xiaobai said calmly.
“Oh, so just so lowlife acting up, planning to participate in the martial arts contest?”
“Uh…”
Li Xiaobai and Wu Dazhuang exchanged glances, sowhat speechless; it was the first ti the Clan Leader’s Token was ineffective. Alas, these younger generations are too inexperienced to recognize the token.
“This young master won’t make things difficult for you today, break your own arm and get out of the Qin Family, leave the Abyssal Domain, or on the stage, this young master will cripple both your arms and legs!”
Qin Yu grinned wickedly, speaking with a playful tone.
“Enough! This is my Qin Shuang’s residence, not yours to cause a scene!”
“Qin Yu, stop with your nonsense; the Family Head has decreed the marriage contract between us, so why participate in the martial arts contest? If this gets out, where would my reputation go?”
Fire burned in Qin Shuang’s heart as she glared at Qin Yu.
“Who said having a marriage contract prevents soone from joining the martial arts contest for marriage?”
“The Family Head married you to as a favor, if I conquer all the heroes and win the beauty, it’s my strength being shown!”
“Besides, two sisters serving one husband, if word got out, wouldn’t it be quite a tale?”
Qin Yu raised his eyebrows indifferently, puffing himself up, confident in his standing as a strong contender on the stage.
Qin Xiufang’s figure, appearance, strength, cultivation level, and background—any one of these would make a man’s heart race. If he could successfully marry her, Qin Shuang, in comparison, could be tossed aside like a rag.
“You bastard!”
Qin Shuang’s eyes reddened, her body swayed as she slapped him, but Qin Yu easily blocked her and backhand slapped her to the ground.
“Bitch!”
“Know that only by marrying can you escape your mother’s dirty, lowly status!”
Qin Yu’s voice was fierce, blue veins bulging at his temples as he raised his foot for a vicious kick.
Suddenly, he felt his body uncontrollably fall to his knees in the direction of the outsiders. He saw the young man who threw the token sitting in a Taishi Chair, casually spinning a twig in his hand.
“In all my life, I detest those who are disloyal, untrustworthy, immoral, and unkind. Coincidentally, you embody all these qualities.”
“Pay attention to these in your next life.”
