?Chapter 607: Chapter 607: Leading Trouble Eastward_1 Chapter 607: Chapter 607: Leading Trouble Eastward_1 “Hmm.” Zhu Yangyuan nodded slightly.

“Then I’m thankful for your efforts.” Xu Tianhu quickly stood up and respectfully cupped his hands together.

Zhu Yangyuan, although a patron of the Qin Family, had a strength that was unfathomably powerful.

His other identity was that of an elder in a sect within the Ancient Martial World, which is why the people of the Qin Family treated him with great respect and importance.

After all, Elder Tan couldn’t see through Zhu Yangyuan’s strength, and Elder Tan was a Grandmaster at the peak of his strength.

For a moment, Xu Tianhu couldn’t help but feel a glimmer of hope.

However, after an examination, Zhu Yangyuan also found himself at a loss and shook his head with a sigh.

“Alas, my poor son.” Xu Tianhu lamented in distress.

“Uncle Xu, don’t worry, there must be a way to save him, and perhaps there’s relevant information recorded in the Flame Dragon.” Qin Qinglong comforted him.

“Hmm.” Xu Tianhu nodded.

“By the way, on this trip back to Yanjing, I particularly wanted to see Miss Xu Yue.” Qin Qinglong finally got around to the main topic.

“This…” For a moment, Xu Tianhu’s face turned rigid, unsure of what to say.

Seeing this, Qin Qinglong couldn’t help but frown and asked, “Uncle Xu, could it be that something unfortunate has happened?”

Xu Tianhu nodded and squeezed out a strained smile, “Alas, they say that family disgrace should not be publicized.

You must have heard about the great upheaval that happened in the Xu Family a few years ago.

My brother’s death was at the hands of that wicked woman.

It infuriates me.

Let me put it this way, nephew, the arranged marriage was orchestrated by me and was the wish of the entire Xu Family.

However, Xu Yue’s own brother, Xu Fan, still bearing resentment after being cast out, strongly opposed the marriage, and Xu Yue, under his influence, has left home.

She’s currently with Xu Fan.”

“Xu Fan?”

Qin Qinglong suddenly remembered and let out a light laugh, “I remember this prodigal son; back in the day, he would avoid me like a shrimp.

Now, stripped of his identity as a member of the Xu Family, he still dares to jump around so recklessly, unaware of his own doom?”

“Sigh…

As an elder, I shouldn’t forcefully intervene in these matters, and I didn’t expect Xu Fan to meddle at the last moment.

Nephew, I’m sorry, but if Xu Fan strongly opposes, the arranged marriage simply can’t go through.

This is my oversight, and I will make sure to provide adequate compensation to the Qin Family.

I hope you can understand.” Xu Tianhu spoke with a helpless expression.

In an instant, he painted himself as a kind and approachable elder while framing Xu Fan as an unreasonable villain.

Although, Qin Qinglong held some reservations about his words, his attitude towards Xu Fan changed to one of intense hatred and disgust.

Daring to oppose his own marriage – truly a death wish.

“Tch…

I didn’t expect that a profligate from the past would have the guts to confront me.

I really want to see what skills he has picked up over these years to have such audacity.” Qin Qinglong’s tone turned a few degrees colder.

Then he asked, “Uncle Xu, where is Xu Fan now?”

“Nephew, what are you thinking of doing?” Xu Tianhu feigned surprise.

“Haha…

Rest assured, Uncle Xu.

If I really join with Miss Xu Yue in marriage, Xu Fan, no matter what, would become my brother-in-law, so I can’t really treat him poorly.

I’ll go and ask him in person why he is so vehemently against this marriage.

Could it be that with my identity and capabilities as Qin Qinglong, I am still unworthy of becoming his brother-in-law?” Qin Qinglong said darkly.

“If that’s the case, there’s no rush at this moment, to avoid an extra trip to Zhonghai.”

Xu Tianhu, seeing that he had successfully diverted the trouble away, felt a wave of relief wash over him and couldn’t help but say with a smile, “In three days, that wicked woman will celebrate her birthday.

Xu Fan, being her son and having achieved something recently, will definitely return to the Xu Family.

Xu Yue will naturally come back with him, and by then, my dear nephew, you will be able to see both siblings.”

Qin Qinglong nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll listen to Uncle Xu.

I’ll stay in Yanjing for another three days.

In three days, I will see for myself whether this Xu Fan has a screw loose in his head or whether he has the gall of a leopard and bear, daring to meddle with me, Qin Qinglong.”

His voice was calm, but the air he unintentionally released carried the force of furious waves, causing even the water in the teacup to ripple.

Hearing this, Xu Tianhu’s eyelids twitched involuntarily.

Not even someone soaring like an Azure Dragon had shown such power, which, when compared to some old Ancient Martial Artists, didn’t seem inferior at all.

…

After Qin Qinglong left, Xu Tianhu’s expression relaxed considerably.

He had managed to navigate through this ordeal, at last.

After all, it was infuriating that he, having taken the initiative to set up the match, end up losing the woman in question, considering how others had come specifically for marriage.

The Qin Family was a behemoth, even slightly stronger than the Xu Family, and their raging fury would definitely need a target for venting.

And Xu Fan, without a doubt, was the perfect candidate.

Now that he thought about it, his plan was truly ingenious.

He had managed to redirect the pressure that was originally on him onto his enemy.

By using the enemy’s momentum against them and borrowing their blade to strike, he achieved two goals with one move—an excellent strategy.

“Family Head, although your method is clever, Xu Fan’s strength is formidable.

Even Qin Qinglong, with his strong reputation, may not be able to suppress him,” Elder Tan couldn’t help expressing his doubt.

“On this trip to Dongjing, the two Patrons witnessed Xu Fan’s strength, which has improved significantly from before.

His progress is so rapid that he has become a major threat, and I fear he won’t be easy to deal with.”

Xu Tianhu nodded, understanding the logic behind this.

He sighed and said, “Of course I understand that, which is why I never hoped that Qin Qinglong would be able to do much to Xu Fan.”

“Then why still do this?” Elder Tan was even more puzzled.

“I had no choice but to do it.

Actually, my aim was only to make Xu Fan gain one more enemy.

And while Qin Qinglong himself may not be as powerful as Xu Fan, the behemoth that is the Qin Family is not something Xu Fan can withstand.

When the combined power of both Xu and Qin families is brought together, the chances of victory will be greatly increased.”

Elder Tan had an epiphany.

Understood!

Being one of the four great families of Yanjing, the Qin Family had many Patrons.

Even if these powerful Patrons couldn’t suppress Xu Fan, the Ancient Martial World Sect represented by Patron Zhu Yangyuan was not to be underestimated.

Zhu Yangyuan, as Qin Qinglong’s master, was absolutely not going to stand by and do nothing…

Meanwhile, at the same time in Zhonghai.

After the police competition ended, the triumphant War Wolf Squad was exuberant, each member bursting with pride, their demeanors radiant.

Winning the championship meant overcoming all opponents, and it meant they would receive a greater share of resources, such as priority in the distribution of weapons, vehicles, supplies, and training equipment.

????0.??

Xu Fan watched the scene unfold, treating it as a short, paid leave of absence just for a change of scenery.

After returning to Zhonghai, he parted ways with the squad and went straight home.
