Chapter 31: Your Sincerity Won Me Over!

“A deacon from the True Martial Sacred Land is looking for me? What for… Hang on!”

“I remember, wasn’t there a disciple from True Martial Sacred Land named Song Tao? He’s been locked up in the Great Qin Dynasty’s dungeon!”

“This True Martial Sacred Land deacon… isn’t he here because of him?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Xuan was initially puzzled, then abruptly recalled that Song Tao fellow.

He had been busy before, so he sealed Song Tao’s cultivation and threw him into the newly built dungeon of the Great Qin Dynasty.

As a result, he completely forgot about him later on. If this True Martial Sacred Land deacon hadn’t shown up today, Song Tao would probably have rotted in there!

“Now that you mention it, there was someone like that!”

Qin Yuanba scratched his head. Hearing Qin Xuan’s words, it seemed he remembered too.

“Let’s go meet this True Martial Sacred Land deacon first!”

“Besides, I also want to know why a True Martial Sacred Land disciple was hiding there, sneaking around watching us back then!”

Qin Xuan said in response.

Subsequently, Qin Yuanba brought the True Martial Sacred Land deacon in.

In the main hall, Qin Xuan saw this deacon clad in martial robes, his silver hair tied up. Though his face showed age, his aura remained sharp and imposing, like swords and blades.

“You must be young brother Qin Xuan! I am Senior Deacon Hai Bonan of the True Martial Sacred Land!”

Seeing Qin Xuan enter, Hai Bonan’s eyes lit up as he spoke.

“Correct! I am Qin Xuan. May I ask, Deacon Hai, what is the purpose of your visit today?”

Qin Xuan got straight to the point.

Finding Qin Xuan so direct, Hai Bonan also dropped the formalities.

He stated outright that he had come to recruit Qin Xuan into the True Martial Sacred Land. He promised Qin Xuan the status of a Core Disciple immediately and even the qualification to compete for the position of the Holy Son!

“I’ve heard that the True Martial Sacred Land is full of powerful experts and Heaven’s Pride talents. Deacon Hai surely didn’t need to come all this way to recruit a small family descendant like me into the Sacred Land?”

Hearing this, Qin Xuan was first surprised. It turned out Deacon Hai wasn’t here for Song Tao, but to invite him into the Sacred Land.

After his surprise, Qin Xuan also asked why Hai Bonan wanted to recruit him.

“Heroes come from all walks of life. A Heaven’s Pride talent who grasps the Second-Layer Sword Intent while still in the Divine Martial Realm… even within the True Martial Sacred Land, a disciple like that is exceptionally rare and worthy of the highest cultivation!”

“Moreover, initially, rumors outside said you had low cultivation strength, that your Sword Intent was your only asset. Not until today, seeing young brother Qin Xuan with my own eyes, did I learn just how false those outside rumors truly were!”

Hai Bonan said with a laugh.

As a peak-level Colossus at the ninth level of the Grotto-Heaven Realm, though he couldn’t discern Qin Xuan’s exact cultivation stage, he could still sense the immense depth of it!

Judging by Qin Xuan’s cultivation level, he was probably even superior to that True Martial Saint they had.

Yet outsiders still spread rumors about his low cultivation? What a bunch of blind idiots.

“What you say is reasonable. But… why should I go with you to the True Martial Sacred Land?”

Qin Xuan nodded, then looked at Hai Bonan and asked.

He possessed the Many Children Many Blessings System. As long as he kept making love, he could become powerful quickly. Why would he need to slave away cultivating in a Sacred Land?

“Huh?”

“The True Martial Sacred Land possesses the finest cultivation environment, the richest cultivation resources, and instruction from countless powerful experts. A Heaven’s Pride talent like you should be cultivating there!”

Hai Bonan reacted with a flicker of astonishment before composing himself as he spoke.

Ordinary people begged him for a mere assessment chance to join the True Martial Sacred Land. Today, however, he encountered someone questioning why they should join. It really threw Hai Bonan off.

“Oh, to be honest, I’m not really interested in resources.”

Qin Xuan said nonchalantly.

Hearing this, Hai Bonan’s brow started to furrow. But then he suddenly sensed the presence of one hundred and eight Spiritual Artifacts materializing outside the hall.

Feeling the auras of numerous Spiritual Artifacts, Hai Bonan’s brow furrowing paused.

But as a Senior Deacon of the True Martial Sacred Land, mere Spiritual Artifacts couldn’t truly shock him.

So, he was about to furrow his brow again and speak.

At that moment, a blood-red longsword floated beside Qin Xuan, bursting out with a powerful sword qi.

“A Mystic-Grade Supreme Artifact!”

This time, Hai Bonan was genuinely shocked. He was so shocked he exclaimed out loud.

Mystic-Grade Supreme Artifacts! Even ordinary Marquis-Level Experts in the Divine Treasure Realm would struggle to possess one!

After all, Mystic-Grade artifacts achieving supreme quality represented the apex of perfection for artifacts in that tier.

Never mind their immense value. The requirement for the smith forging such an artifact—it required at least the Marquis-Level in the Divine Treasure Realm!

Even within the True Martial Sacred Land, artifacts of this quality were scarce!

After his shock, Hai Bonan couldn’t help sighing inwardly.

It seemed this young Heaven’s Pride talent of the Qin Family truly possessed a great fortuitous blessing!

And so, the atmosphere fell into silence.

It wasn’t until Hai Bonan thought of something that his eyes suddenly brightened. He looked at Qin Xuan and proclaimed loudly:

“The True Martial Sacred Land boasts many female disciples! And the female disciples within the Sacred Land have better talent, more unparalleled grace, better figures! Furthermore, due to their cultivation… they are undoubtedly far more stunning and alluring than any women from the outside world!”

As these words left his mouth, Hai Bonan saw Qin Xuan’s gaze deepen. Hai Bonan couldn’t help feeling a little apprehensive inside.

Surely even this wouldn’t be enough?

Seeing the suggestive expression on Hai Bonan’s old face, Qin Xuan couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh:

“Deacon Hai! You have misjudged me! Do you really think Qin Xuan is someone obsessed with feminine charms?”

Hearing this, Hai Bonan’s aura faltered. So he had guessed wrong.

Besides his Sword Intent, Qin Xuan was most famous in the rumors for his beautiful wives and concubines.

Naturally, Hai Bonan thought Qin Xuan would be more interested in women.

“My mistake! A Heaven’s Pride who pushed Sword Intent to the Second Layer within the Divine Martial Realm must possess unwavering willpower. Mere beauty wouldn’t sway them!”

With that, Hai Bonan stood up to leave.

If Qin Xuan didn’t want to join the True Martial Sacred Land, he couldn’t force him.

Given Qin Xuan’s talent and strength, even if he didn’t join True Martial, other Sacred Lands would welcome him gladly. His reluctance to join was understandable.

However, just as Hai Bonan turned to leave, a clear, solemn voice suddenly came from behind him.

“However… I am someone who is always easily touched by others’ sincerity!”

“It is clear, Deacon Hai, that your sincerity has truly swayed me!”
