Chapter 27 - Your Father Has Been Worried Sick About You

Translator: Zayn_

Another half a month passed.

Qin Chuan’s prestige in Minghao City increased day by day. He was like a fierce dragon that had crossed the river, suppressing all the local tyrants.

Even the City Lord’s mansion was weaker in front of him.

After all, he was a ruthless man who had crippled Master Pang Qi!

Moreover, after Master Pang Qi was crippled, he actually went silent. After so long, there were no signs of revenge.

This way, everyone felt that Qin Chuan was unfathomable and was a terrifying existence that they absolutely could not provoke.

And today, City Lord Bai Chen suddenly came to visit Qin Chuan.

After he entered the house, he did not waste any time and directly said, “Brother Qin, I came here today to tell you about an opportunity.”

“Tell me about it.”

Qin Chuan poured a cup of tea and handed it to him.

Bai Chen took the teacup and said, “Two days ago, in an area under the jurisdiction of Minghao City, the flood destroyed a mountain and revealed the tomb of an expert.”

“According to the array formation and seal on the outside of the tomb, we can see that this should be the tomb left by a Nirvana realm expert.”

“You want me to rob the tomb?”

Qin Chuan asked with a smile.

“No, no, no. This kind of tomb is not very useful to us, but it is a good experience for young people.”

Bai Chen said seriously, “There are various mechanisms and opportunities in the tombs of these powerhouses, which can train the young people’s reaction, insight, mental quality, etc…”

“Moreover, this is also an opportunity for the young people to communicate and compete. After all, young people need competition to have the motivation to cultivate.”

Qin Chuan heard this and asked, “You mean, you have told a lot of people that there will be a lot of young people going to this tomb?”

“Hehe, sorry for making a fool of myself, Brother Qin.”

Bai Chen smiled awkwardly and said, “I did sell this information to a lot of nirvana-level forces and got a good profit.”

“However, this is not only for my own personal benefit. The law of the dynasty actually encourages this kind of behavior.”

“After all, I just said that this is a good opportunity for young people to gain experience. The stronger the younger generation is, the stronger the overall strength of the Nine Sun Dynasty will be.”

Qin Chuan narrowed his eyes when he heard this.

The overall strength of the dynasty?

Generally speaking, when it came to overall strength, there must be something that was the common enemy of everyone.

He thought about it and decided that since his son had gone out shopping, it wouldn’t be embarrassing to ask.

“Brother Bai, does the Nine Sun Dynasty have any external enemies?”

He asked.

“Hehe, not really, it’s just that…”

Bai Chen laughed bitterly and sighed, “Sigh… in the last Seven Nation Tournament, the Nine Sun Dynasty came in last place.”

When Qin Chuan heard this, he suddenly wanted to laugh, but he held it in.

He had received professional training, so it was impossible for him to laugh, unless he couldn’t hold it in.

“I see.”

He took a deep breath, then nodded as if nothing had happened, and said, “But I’m so poor. I’m afraid I can’t afford to buy this news of yours.”

“Brother Qin, what are you saying? Since I’m here to tell you personally, I naturally won’t take your money.”

Bai Chen shook his head with a smile.

“I’m not used to accepting no reward for no merit. You’re making me uncomfortable,” Qin Chuan said as he looked into his eyes.

“I’ll be frank with you. I don’t have any other purpose. I just want to be friends with you… I wonder if you’re willing to be my friend.”

Bai Chen met Qin Chuan’s gaze without dodging.

The two of them looked at each other for a few seconds.

Qin Chuan retracted his gaze and said with a smile, “What’s wrong with having more friends?”

Bai Chen smiled as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden. Then, he took out a rolled-up sheepskin scroll.

“This is the map of the tomb. You can bring Qin Zi there yourself. Of course, you can also let him follow the people from the City Lord’s Mansion.”

Qin Chuan rejected the sheepskin scroll with a smile and said, “I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t be going. I’ll have to trouble you to take care of that kid.”

Hearing this, Bai Chen’s spirits were lifted!

Qin Chuan wasn’t going?

He was going to hand his son over to him directly?

How much trust was this!

“Since brother Qin trusts me so much, then I promise that I won’t let anything happen to him,” Bai Chen said solemnly.

“Okay, have some tea.”

Qin Chuan raised his teacup and said.

“Okay.”

Bai Chen also raised his teacup. The two of them clinked their teacups, looked at each other, smiled, and took a sip.

Soon.

Bai Chen left.

Qin Chuan narrowed his eyes.

The reason why he didn’t personally bring his cheap son to the tomb was because… he had to stir up trouble behind the scenes.

Once he wore the black robe, father and son had nothing to do with each other.

Once he wore the cloak, no one would know him!

He had to “protect” behind the scenes to ensure that his cheap son would cause the biggest mess.

You kill, I stab.

You run, I create rumors.

It was that simple, it was that real!

Moreover, in some places where fish and dragons mixed together, facing unknown dangers, his survival ability might not even be as good as his son’s.

Therefore, he was unwilling to enter a dungeon with his son.

For example, if the father and son were trapped in an array formation together and he was helpless, wouldn’t the image of an ‘invincible expert’ be destroyed?

A true invincible expert must have no shortcomings and should be able to solve all problems.

Even if it was a domain that he wasn’t very good at, he would still be able to reach the magical realm of ‘understanding’ a little.

Only then could he be considered invincible!

There was no way to explain the concept of image. If it collapsed, it would mean that it collapsed. No matter how he tried to save it, it would be useless.

Therefore, it was not suitable for him to act together with his son. He was more suitable to be the mastermind behind the scenes, a temporary firefighter.

“Dad, I’m back.”

Not long after, Qin Zi walked through the main door in a refreshed manner. His footsteps were extremely light.

Looking at this kid’s appearance, Qin Chuan guessed that he must have picked up something from a stall by the side of the street.

However, this kid came back like this almost every day… Wasn’t that a little too much?

“Sigh, I don’t know how long this Minghao City’s treasure reserves can last…”

He sighed in his heart.

A rice worm was enough to eat up a rice vat, and a King of Luck was enough to empty out a main city’s fortune.

…

Wujiang City.

Originally, it was just an ordinary second-tier city. Although there were occasional disturbances, it was still relatively calm.

However, in these two days, because of the matter of the tomb of a Nirvana realm expert, a large number of experts had poured in from all directions.

These people were like fierce dragons crossing the river, pressing down on the natives of Wujiang City so much that they didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.

However, fortunately, these people didn’t cause trouble in the city. In fact, many people didn’t even enter the city. Instead, they directly entered the tomb of the expert.

And on this day.

The Wujiang City’s Wanbao Chamber of Commerce branch welcomed a special guest. This person was dressed in a black robe, and his identity was unknown.

However, this person took out a Supreme VIP card, scaring the person in charge of this place quite a bit.

She was very clear what this meant.

This was a Nirvana realm expert!!

“Distinguished guest, what instructions do you have?” The middle-aged beautiful woman asked respectfully.

“I want to ask for some information. I believe that you should have an intelligence system in this area.”

The black-robed man said in a deep voice.

“Please ask.”

The middle-aged woman bowed slightly. The valley in her chest made her look magnificent.

“I want to know exactly which forces entered the tomb this time.”

The black-robed man asked.

“Well… let me think about it.”

The middle-aged beautiful woman sorted out her thoughts and then said in an orderly manner, “There are at least a hundred large and small forces here this time, and there are even some nameless people.”

“I think that those small forces and nameless people shouldn’t be worth your attention, so I’ll talk about the nirvana-level forces.”

“There are a total of twelve nirvana-level forces that have appeared in the past few days. They are the Yan family of Molten City, the Lin family of Tianmu City, the Luo family of Dayang City, the Yu family of Chongtian City… and finally, the City Lord’s mansion of Minghao City.”

“These forces are all led by experts at the peak of the Pure Yang realm. They have brought the young masters of their families here to train.”

The black-robed man nodded and said, “I want detailed information about these nirvana-level forces.”

“For example, what are the names of these young people who are training? It would be best if there is a portrait of them. Which elders are with them? What is the cultivation level of their elders? What is the internal relationship of their families? What is the strongest strength of their families? Are they in closed-door cultivation…”

The black-robed man spoke a long string of words.

The middle-aged beautiful woman listened very seriously, afraid to miss out on any detail.

Finally, the black-robed man finished speaking.

The middle-aged beautiful woman bowed and said with a smile, “I will go and tidy up immediately. Please have some tea and wait for a moment.”

After she finished speaking, she walked out of the luxurious private room.

The black-robed man sat on the chair and leisurely picked up the white jade teacup, taking a sip in satisfaction.

“Hey, my cheap son, your father has been worried sick about you….”
