Chapter 26: Arrival of the Family Colossus Experts, Qin Yuanba and Qin Chengdu!

“The three great dynasties… jointly kill Qin Xuan??”

Crown prince Shi Hao heard this and was extremely shocked. He did not understand why the Azure Dragon King wanted to join with the other two emperors to jointly murder Qin Xuan.

First of all, it was unsure if the other two emperors would agree or not. Even if they agreed, what were the chances of success?

The destruction of the Joyous Dao Sect was still fresh in everyone’s minds!

“Father, why on earth do you want to kill Qin Xuan?”

Crown prince Shi Hao asked his doubts.

Then, the Azure Dragon King told Shi Hao everything about the True Martial Sacred Land wanting to admit Qin Xuan, and how it would affect Shi Hao’s chance to participate in the assessment.

After hearing this, Crown prince Shi Hao could not help but clench his fists tightly. A feeling of unwillingness rose in his heart.

He had been born with a natural spirit bone in his body. Though it was not a high-level or powerful talent.

It allowed his training speed and fighting strength to be stronger than other warriors at the same level.

But the Azure Dragon Dynasty had too few resources. This was why he had only just barely broken through to the seventh level of the Rotating Sea Realm. He had not even touched the threshold of the Palace of Dao Realm.

So, joining the True Martial Sacred Land was not only what the Azure Dragon King expected of him, but also his own dream to become stronger.

Now, the dream was about to come true. But instead, the Azure Dragon King told him that the dream might not happen—it might shatter!

Anyone in his position would feel unwilling.

“Father! Since Qin Xuan has already been noticed by the True Martial Sacred Land’s deacon, if we rashly kill him, won’t it displease the deacon? Might they take their anger out on us?”

Crown prince Shi Hao was no fool. He instantly thought of the possible dangers.

“Do not worry! My conversation with Song Tao clearly hinted to me that the True Martial Saint himself did not want Qin Xuan to enter the Sacred Land!”

“Compared to one deacon, the True Martial Saint has much more influence inside the Sacred Land!”

“Moreover, if we do not act, you will have no hope of joining the True Martial Sacred Land at all. But if we do act, there is hope!”

As someone who had climbed to the throne of the Azure Dragon Dynasty, the Azure Dragon King naturally knew how to interpret such hints.

Especially since Song Tao had made it very clear.

It was almost like pointing at the Azure Dragon King’s nose and saying: Kill Qin Xuan, and I will let your son join the True Martial Sacred Land!

“The second from the Spirit Dragon Dynasty and the sixth from the Bright Dragon Dynasty—just like you, they used many resources to get the chance to assess for joining the True Martial Sacred Land. Song Tao probably just left to go tell those two about this!”

“As the trusted follower of the True Martial Saint, Song Tao would never allow a Heaven’s Pride who might threaten the True Martial Saint’s position to enter the Sacred Land!”

“With Song Tao hinting first today, and me organizing it tomorrow, I am sure this plan will succeed!”

“Also, last month, spies reported to me that Qin Xuan’s wife had left the Qin Family for some unknown reason. Now that she is gone, Qin Xuan is the only one in the Qin Family worth mentioning!”

“Qin Xuan has understood Second-Layer Sword Intent, but his level can be at best a Grandmaster in the Rotating Sea Realm!”

“Tomorrow, the ancestors of the three great dynasties, along with me and other strong warriors, will all take action. That Qin Xuan will surely die without a doubt!”

The Azure Dragon King’s voice was icy cold.

In the battles after destroying the Han Family, whether it was against the Joyous Dao Sect leader Fei Qian.

Or when he solo-fought three Elders of the Palace of Dao Realm in the destruction of the Joyous Dao Sect, it was all done by Ji Yingyue. Qin Xuan only watched from the side and helped occasionally.

So aside from Ji Yingyue and her two companions, even Qin Peng and Qin Da did not know Qin Xuan’s current real level. The Azure Dragon royal family knew even less.

The Azure Dragon King’s impression of Qin Xuan still stayed at the early Divine Martial Realm expert stage after the Han Family was destroyed.

Even after over a year had passed, no matter how talented Qin Xuan might be, he could at most break through to a Grandmaster in the Rotating Sea Realm.

The ancestors of the three great dynasties had aging lifespans. Acting even once might kill them.

But they were all great powers of the fifth or sixth level of the Palace of Dao Realm!

Plus, the emperors and other strong warriors from each dynasty made over thirty Palace of Dao Realm powers altogether.

Such a powerful force to jointly kill an early-stage Grandmaster. Even with Qin Xuan having Second-Layer Sword Intent, they still had victory in their hands!

“Tomorrow, I am willing to go with you, father!”

After hearing the Azure Dragon King’s words, Crown prince Shi Hao showed a trace of fierceness as he spoke.

Cutting off someone’s future chances was like killing their parents. With such a sure victory, why not risk it?

He did not believe that three dynasties combined could not kill just one Qin Xuan!

…

In Qingfeng City, at the Qin Manor.

Today, two very important Qin Family members had returned.

One was a thin, frail-looking man with a sickly ghost-like body. Yet he held a pair of powerful magical artifacts: Wengjin Hammers.

The other was a sturdy, muscular man with fierce eyes and thick brows. He also held a powerful magical artifact: a Fengchi Liujin Trident.

“Are you… Qin Yuanba and Qin Chengdu?”

Qin Da nervously swallowed and asked as he faced the two, whose frightening power felt like a deep abyss.

Hah! The Three Kingdoms and Ming dynasty games are over; now it’s time for the Sui-Tang era!

Standing beside Qin Da, Qin Xuan also complained silently in his mind.

Earlier, when he felt the strong auras from these two during his training in the backyard, he had guessed they were the family’s great power holders granted by the system reward.

But Qin Xuan did not quite understand why it took over a month for them to arrive finally.

“What? As the Qin Family head, you don’t even dare to acknowledge your two great-uncles now?”

Qin Yuanba spoke in a muffled, angry tone.

Qin Yuanba and Qin Chengdu were recorded in the family tree.

In Qin Da’s childhood memories, he truly remembered these two great-uncles who had traveled far from home.

He just never expected that after so many years had passed.

These two great-uncles had not only not died on their travels, but had also returned to the family with incredibly strong cultivation.

“May I ask what level you both have reached now?”

Feeling the terrifying aura around Qin Yuanba and Qin Chengdu, Qin Da could not help asking.

“Hah, after traveling for so many years, I am currently just a petty expert of the Grotto-Heaven Realm! It is hardly worth mentioning!”

Qin Chengdu answered.

“Gro-grotto… a Grotto-Heaven Realm Colossus??”

Upon hearing this, Qin Da felt a wave of excitement rush to his head.

A Grotto-Heaven Realm Colossus was a power stronger by a whole big level than Palace of Dao Realm experts.

The word “Colossus” alone was enough to show how strong a Grotto-Heaven Realm warrior was.

Even in the Holy Land filled with countless powers, Grotto-Heaven Realm Colossi were qualified to become Senior Deacons!

Outside the Holy Land, Grotto-Heaven Realm Colossi could easily decide the rise or fall of dynasties in casual talk!

Now, such great powers had come back to the Qin Family. Qin Da felt like he had won a billion-dollar lottery.

Thinking of this, Qin Da felt a bit resentful.

Why couldn’t these two great-uncles have come back earlier?

If they had returned just two years sooner, the Qin Family would not have been nearly wiped out by those small families like Jiang Yan who were only at the Divine Transformation Realm!

At the same time, he felt more resentment toward Qin Daorong and Qin Jinglong. If they had returned just one year earlier, it would have been fine.

“I happened to meet Yuanba on our way back and got the urge to spar. That’s why we were delayed slightly.”

Maybe because he sensed the hidden frustration in Qin Da’s eyes, Qin Chengdu explained.

“That’s right! Chengdu lost every spar and refused to accept it. We fought many times outside before returning!”

Qin Yuanba spoke bluntly. Qin Chengdu silently tightened his grip on his Fengchi Liujin Trident magical artifact.

It was natural to not accept—fate had it that one of them must die.

Still, since Qin Chengdu had survived so many spars, he was very lucky!

Hearing this, Qin Xuan could not help complaining inwardly again. He also understood why it took over a month for them to arrive.

“Child, is he also a member of our Qin Family?”

Perhaps trying to change the awkward subject, Qin Chengdu looked at Qin Xuan and asked.

At the same time, Qin Yuanba also looked at Qin Xuan. From Qin Xuan, he could feel an incredibly sharp and fierce aura.

This aura actually made him feel a bit threatened.

“Correct! Child… Young Master Qin Xuan is now the strongest warrior in our Qin Family! He saved the Qin Family from destruction two years ago! He is the benefactor of every Qin Family clan member!”

Qin Da answered to introduce him.

Because of Qin Xuan’s special status and him not wanting to be the Qin Family head, Qin Family clan members all respectfully called him Young Master Qin Xuan.

Also, compared to the two great-uncles who had been away for long, Qin Da felt closer to Qin Xuan, and his tone was full of respect.

“Young Master Qin Xuan? As the Qin Family head, why do you refer to a young member of the family as ‘Young Master’?”

Qin Chengdu frowned when he heard this.

After hearing this, Qin Da first glanced at Qin Xuan.

Seeing that Qin Xuan was not angry, he prepared to explain to Qin Yuanba and Qin Chengdu.

However, right then, a huge explosion like thunder cracking open suddenly came from outside the city gates of Qingfeng City.

This made Qin Xuan, Qin Yuanba, and Qin Chengdu all instantly furrow their brows.
