C4 An Encounter With The Qin Family
Baoer was efficient, so she bought all the clothes and herbs in a short time.
After a simple wash and changing his clothes, Baoer helped him in drying and combing his hair before Chu Yan took a look at his face in the bronze mirror. Looking at his sharp facial features in the mirror, his eyes that were deep and sharp as a knife curved into a satisfied smile. "Hm, this is it."
Baoer, who was watching from the side, was in a daze. Chu Yan was now dressed in a white and blue robe while standing tall and elegant. He looked completely different from the previous beggar-like appearance.
She couldn’t help but praise, "Young master, you're so dignified!"
"Baoer's words are so sweet. Here, this is for you." Chuckling, Chu Yan picked a few low-grade Blood Replenishing Grass from the herbs that Baoer had bought and gave them to Baoer. He advised, "Take one every morning and night, and come back to find me after seven days."
"Thank you, Young Master." Baoer was pleasantly surprised. Although the Blood Replenishing Grass was cheap, it was not something that servants like her could consume.
Chu Yan nodded with a smile and then lowered his head. Now that he had finally freshened up, he could take a look at his situation.
He sat down and closed his five senses, immediately entering the meditation state. Not long after, he found his primordial spirit appear in front of the dantian's Nine Heavens Profound Pagoda.
Looking at the Nine Heavens Profound Pagoda, Chu Yan activated his Yuan Qi. Immediately after, three new stars appeared within his dantian.
"3-star vital body?"
Chu Yan grinned. Although 3-star vital body was not surprising, he had already reached the level of a normal person within a short time. What was more, since he was not in a hurry, he only opened the first layer of Nine Heavens Profound Pagoda. The further he went, the higher his vital body would advance and in a matter of time, he would finally breakthrough to 9-star vital body!
Therefore, he didn't linger on the matter of vital body and directly probed his cultivation base and body.
"Third level of Mortal Realm, one thousand catties of flesh."
Chu Yan became more and more excited. This proved that he had completely gotten rid of the title of trash, and in one night, he had broken through the two levels consecutively.
After confirming his condition, Chu Yan stood up in satisfaction and decided to go out for a walk. After all, this was his home from now on and he had to get familiar with it.
Unexpectedly, just as he stepped out of the door, he saw two sneaky figures from the corner of his eye. He could not help but laugh, "Aren’t those two figures the guards who had stopped me yesterday?"
"You two, stop!" Chu Yan shouted.
The two guards jumped in shock, but they didn’t stop and wanted to run away as if they didn't see Chu Yan.
Chu Yan was speechless. He didn't expect the two to have such an attitude. He hurried to the front and snickered, "Hahaha, the two of you were kneeling before me yesterday. But how come you don't know this young master today?"
The two guards felt wronged and Zhao Wu glared at Chu Yan while speaking, "You actually have the nerve to mention that! If I knew that you were a trash, I wouldn't have knelt down in front of you!"
"Exactly!" The other one, Zhao Liu, echoed his companion’s words.
Hearing the words of the two, Chu Yan laughed before coughing twice. He cleared his throat and asked curiously, "How did you two know this young master is trash?"
"If the whole Tianyong City knows about this, how can we not know?"
"Then, you didn’t think it could be a rumor?" Chu Yan smiled and said, "Let me ask you then. Have you ever given a thought to that? If I am really a piece of trash, would the Patriarch Liu still allow Qingcheng to marry me?"
The two of them frowned at his question. It sounded reasonable, but Zhao Wu was still unconvinced as he retorted, "Then, why did they say you are trash?"
"Let me tell you guys a secret. Not only am I not a waste, I'm also a peerless genius. Uncle Liu was worried that the other families would think highly of me and want to take me in as their son-in-law, so he intentionally spread rumors about me being a waste." Chu Yan's eyes widened as he began to speak nonsense enthusiastically. It was as if he was telling his own made up stories to the children.
The most ridiculous thing was that Zhao Wu and Zhao Liu actually believed him after listening to his nonsensical words. However, Chu Yan was actually not lying either. He was no longer a trash and would become a true genius soon.
Chu Yan pretended to be a magnanimous person and patted the two of them on the shoulder. "Silly kids, since you guys kneeled to this young master yesterday, you can just follow this young master from now on. This young master won't treat you unfairly."
"Thank you, Young Master!"
Just like that, Zhao Wu and Zhao Liu ended up obeying Chu Yan once again.
Just at this time, a commotion came from outside Liu Family's gate. It was Qin Feng who came, bringing a few Qin Family disciples to the Liu Family's door.
When the female disciples of Liu Family saw Qin Feng, all of them became infatuated with him.
"Quick, look! It's the third young master of Qin Family!"
"Damn, if sister Qingcheng can marry him, how good would that be? If it becomes like this, in the future, the Qin-Liu Family Alliance would be formed and it would definitely be a great thing for the Tianyong City. Unfortunately, Miss will have to marry that trash, Chu Yan.
Hearing the praise of the Liu Family’s female disciples, Qin Feng's mouth raised in a proud smile. Although he couldn't marry Liu Qingcheng, he was still very pleased to hear those words.
"How come he is called handsome with that look? It looks like this young master is pretty popular in the Tianyong City."
Chu Yan grinned and commented when he saw Qin Feng from behind. Then, he tilted his head and asked Zhao Liu, "Let me ask you. That kid, what is his background?"
That kid? Hearing his remark, Zhao Wu and Zhao Liu felt a bit awkward. After all, in Tianyong City, there were not many who would dare to call Qin Feng this way.
"Young Master, how could you not know? He is the third young master of Qin Family. He had awakened 4-star vital body and so, he is spoiled by the Qin Family a lot. He is quite famous in Tianyong City as well."
"A 4-star vital body? Is it that amazing?" Chu Yan smacked his lips.
"!!!"
Zhao Wu and Zhao Liu were stunned speechless and they thought simultaneously, ‘You have the nerve to say like that when your vital body is one star?’
However, Zhao Wu took the initiative to apprise him, "However, Young Master, you should be careful. Third Young Master Qin has always been Lady Qingcheng's number one pursuer and he does evil deeds recklessly. Since you are about to marry Lady Qingcheng now, I don’t think he would let you off so easily."
"It's none of his business if I marry my future wife or not." Chu Yan had a disdainful look on his face. As far as he was concerned, Qin Feng was just a small character that wasn't worth putting in his head.
At this moment, Zhao Tu hurriedly walked out from the main residence as he saw Qin Feng coming over. He greeted him quite politely,
"Third Young Master Qin? How come you're free to come today?"
"Where's Qingcheng?" Qin Feng directly said coldly, "I heard that Qingcheng is getting married. So, I came here specifically to give my blessings."
A slight frown flashed across Zhao Tu’s face. He was not an idiot. Qin Feng had always been Liu Qingcheng's number one pursuer. Now that Liu Qingcheng was getting married with other, would he come over to give her his blessings?
Thinking about this, he didn't know whether he should let Qin Feng see Liu Qingcheng or not.
"My wife isn't here. If you have something to say to her, tell me. I can tell her back."
Just when Zhao Tu was wracking his brain on what to do, a discordant voice sounded out. Chu Yan walked through the crowd with a straw in his mouth and his hands behind his back in a composed posture. Zhao Wu and Zhao Liu followed behind him, looking as if they weren't any weaker than Qin Feng and the disciples who came along.
"Eh, who is this person?" Seeing Chu Yan, the girls of Liu Family were all slightly stunned.
"Yeah, he’s so handsome. Even more handsome than third Young Master Qin!"
"Now that I look at him carefully, doesn’t he look a little similar to Chu Yan?"
"There’s no way! But he does really look like that guy. Right, he just said that sister Qingcheng is his wife, he can't be Chu Yan who was covered in filth during the day, right?" A female disciple cried out in alarm.
Zhao Tu saw Chu Yan came into the picture and was instantly depressed. Just one Qin Feng was enough to give him a headache, why did Chu Yan have to appear again?
Asides from that, why did it feel like there was something different about him?
Zhao Tu had been in the Liu Family for a long time and had seen a lot of people. However, when he looked at Chu Yan now, he could not see through him at all.
Chu Yan seemed to exude a unique temperament, and it even had a little bit of viciousness.
"Young Master Qin, he's that Chu Yan." A disciple beside Qin Feng informed in a low voice.
Qin Feng nodded his head and sized Chu Yan up before revealing a playful expression, "So, you are Qingcheng's famous fiancé."
"Yeah, I have heard about you too. I heard that you have been chasing after my wife for so long, but she didn't agree, right? Don't worry, I definitely won't be jealous. Who asked my wife to be so beautiful. After all, it’s also good to have a few spare tires behind a beautiful woman, huh!" The corners of Chu Yan's mouth curled up as he sneered coldly.
"Hiss!" At this time, the people of Liu Family could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. Zhao Tu also froze and his face turned pale. He did not expect Chu Yan to use such malicious words to humiliate Qin Feng in front of everyone!
Qin Feng clenched his fist and his face turned gloomy in an instant, but he soon let it go. He wasn't the type of person who acted on impulse. On the contrary, he knew what it meant to be patient and bear the pain of being stabbed.
He retorted, "Haha, kid, don't worry. I will continue to chase her until she’s with me. When that time comes, just don’t cry like a baby."
Chu Yan raised his eyebrows nonchalantly. "Don't worry about it. My wife is not blind!"
"You!"
Qin Feng's facial features twitched, and a disciple from Qin Family at the side could not hold it in anymore and scolded, "Bastard, how dare you! We are from the Qin Family. Even Liu Tianfeng has to be polite to our young master, not to mention you, a bastard from who knows where!"
Swish!
Suddenly, the look in Chu Yan's eyes changed and the aura around him became intensely heavy as he looked intently at the disciple who just spoke to him.
He stressed his words, "What did you just say? Say that again!"
Everyone was shocked by Chu Yan's sudden change. Even Zhao Tu’s face revealed a little surprise at this moment. Beside Chu Yan, he seemed to see a burning flame that was born from the rising of a superior king.
The disciple of the Qin Family was also shocked, but as someone from the Qin Family and with Qin Feng by his side, he immediately calmed down and repeated arrogantly,
"I said you're a bastard! What can you do to me-"
"Pah!" Before the disciple could finish his words, Chu Yan flicked his sleeve and a gust of wind was shot out towards him. Immediately, the disciple's face was whipped to the side by some strong force.
The slap was so heavy that the disciple spat out a mouthful of blood. He continuously retreated a few steps back as he glared fiercely at Chu Yan while pointing at him.
"Little bastard, even Liu Family dares not offend our Qin Family, yet you dare to hit me?"
"Qin Family? Could it be the descendant of Qin Po Shan? In the beginning of the year when the Long Dragon Kingdom was established, he served as the great general. The barbarians of the north were attacking aggressively at that time and Qin Po Shan alone had divine assistance as he led a group of one hundred people to attack the opponent party, Yellow Dragon directly while managing to aim the top level enemy's head from among tens of thousands of people, and breaking through the enemy's defenses." Chu Yan said in a casual manner.
The Qin Family disciple was stunned. He didn't know who Qin Po Shan was, he only knew that the Qin Family's ancestor was indeed the great general of the Long Dragon Kingdom back then. Anyhow, after listening to Chu Yan’s words, he raised his head proudly.
At the sight of this, Chu Yan rolled his eyes at the Qin Family disciple in disdain before continuing in a mocking tone,
"So what? Is it that amazing? Let alone Qin Po Shan being dead now, even if Qin Po Shan came out from his grave and continued to guard your Qin Family, I don’t care. You can ask him if he dares to touch me. Maybe the Liu Family fears you, but I, Chu Yan, am not afraid. Forget about hitting you, even if I kill you, I can still make your Qin Family not even dare to let out a fart!"
Crazy!
Chu Yan’s words could only be considered as 'crazy', but the surrounding area was completely silent. Especially Zhao Tu, who was silently observing Chu Yan with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
In fact, he was curious about Chu Yan since from the beginning. What exactly was Chu Yan's identity to be able to protect Liu Family from collapsing for ten years. And now, another sentence he spoke had directly revealed the founder of the Qin Family in this way.
