Chapter 167: Even Land Immortals Have to Bow When They See Me
Outside the main hall, everyone’s eyes were focused on Qin Chuan, wanting to see how he would respond.
As the Patriarch, Li Jingchen exploded in anger when he heard what the junior of the Qi family said.
He was the one who invited Qin Chuan to be his guest elder, and everyone knew that. He absolutely couldn’t allow others to speak of him in such a manner. Saying that about Qin Chuan was equivalent to slapping his face.
At this moment, his eyes were burning with rage, like a volcano that was about to erupt. Then, he released the suppression belonging to a Connate martial artist, and like a tide, it swiftly enveloped the Qi family’s youth.
Seeing this, the Qi family’s Connate experts immediately used their own suppression to fight back.
Bang!
In an instant, the calm air exploded with a loud bang.
The airwaves created by the collision of the two forces blasted out in all directions like a strong wind and easily overturned the altar. Many people were shaken by the airwaves and fell to the ground.
“Qi Chang, Qi Yuan, let’s see how long you can last.”
Li Jingchen said fiercely.
Although they were all Connate experts, it was obvious that Li Jingchen was much stronger than them.
Besides, Li Jingchen was not at his peak right now.
He had suffered internal injuries a few years ago and had yet to recover.
If he was at their peak state, he would be able to defeat them instantly, even if the two Connate artists from the Qi family were to join hands.
After one or two breaths, the expressions of the two Qi family Connate experts became strained. It seemed like they wouldn’t be able to last much longer.
Right at this moment, Qin Chuan spoke.
“Patriarch Li, is this the so-called guest appointment ceremony? How disappointing.”
When Li Jingchen heard this, he immediately retracted his aura. The two Connate experts from the Qi family let out a sigh of relief.
“Great Master Qin, it was my negligence this time. I promise I will take care of this well. Please give me a chance,” Li Jingchen said anxiously.
Qin Chuan said coolly, “Patriarch Li, you are right. It was indeed your negligence.
“Look, all sorts of senseless folks have barged in. You’ve got to strengthen your management of the clan in the future. ”
“Yes! Great Master Qin is right.” Li Jingchen quickly cupped his hands.
This time, the juniors of the Li family clan were even more confused.
They couldn’t understand why their Patriarch was so respectful towards an ordinary youth.
This was unacceptable to them.
The representatives from the family clans who were on good terms with the Li family wore solemn expressions on their faces. They were extremely surprised inwardly.
They knew Li Jingchen very well. He had to be acting like this because this seemingly ordinary young man had some concealed capabilities.
This time, Cao and Qi’s families had probably picked the wrong person to mess with.
There would definitely be a good show later.
On the other hand, when the Cao and Qi families heard Qin Chuan referring to them senseless, they were naturally enraged. They wished they could rip Qin Chuan’s mouth apart on the spot.
However, when they saw Li Jingchen’s respectful behavior, the few Connate experts fell into deep thought.
They were all old foxes who had lived for over a hundred years. So, naturally, they had their own ideas.
They speculated that this ordinary young man was not what he appeared to be.
Still, after sizing him up, they couldn’t find anything that made their eyes light up. This puzzled them.
Presently, Qin Chuan’s gaze was fixed on the Qi family’s youth as he walked over.
“You seem to have something against me?”
Qin Chuan looked down coldly at the young man.
Although his appearance was ordinary, he was above 1.8 meters, half a head taller than that youth.
When he saw the indifferent gaze of Qin Chuan, the youth instantly felt a little timid.
“Great Master Qin, that’s how I should address you, right!” The person who spoke was a Connate expert named Qi Chang.
Qin Chuan turned his head and looked at Qi Chang, “What do you want to say?”
Since he wasn’t clear about Qin Chuan’s background, Qi Chang clasped his hands and bowed, “Great Master Qin, the juniors of my clan are all young and impetuous. If he has said anything wrong, as an elder, I will definitely apologize to you.”
Qin Chuan laughed, “Elder Qi, you said that your clan’s juniors are young and spirited. It’s the same for me.
“Since he has a problem with me being a guest elder of the Li family, why don’t we have a challenge?
“If he wins, then I naturally wouldn’t have the qualifications to become a guest elder of the Li family.
“If I win, he will kowtow to me a hundred times.”
Qi Chang’s expression instantly turned ugly.
“Elder, this isn’t fair!” That youth from the Qi family shouted.
“Why should I kowtow if he wins? If he wins, he just has to stop being a guest elder of the Li family? This is completely unfair.”
Qi Chang did not reply immediately.
“Then tell me, how should we change it so it’s fair?” Qin Chuan stared straight at the young man.
The youth said directly, “If I win, you have to kowtow a hundred times to me too.”
“Bingo, we’ll do as you say.” Qin Chuan smiled.
“Elder Qi, your junior has spoken. What do you think?”
Qi Chang looked hesitant.
They knew nothing about Qin Chuan. If they were to agree rashly, there would definitely be a huge risk.
Most importantly, he was the one who initiated the duel.
This meant that he had absolute confidence in victory.
“Elder, don’t hesitate, I promise I will win.” That young man said confidently.
Qi Chang glanced at him but naturally did not blame him.
He was still too young after all and did not consider everything thoroughly.
“Elder Qi, you wouldn’t disagree, would you?” Qin Chuan prompted again.
Qi Chang smiled, “Since Great Master Qin insists on competing, we will naturally oblige.
“However, since it’s a duel, we have to agree on the rules beforehand so that we don’t make a scene later. ”
“Fine, you decide the rules. I don’t mind.” Qin Chuan replied coolly.
At this moment,
Li Jingchen came to Qin Chuan’s side and whispered, “Great Master Qin, isn’t this too hasty?”
When Qin Chuan suggested this, he had wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.
He knew that Qin Chuan had an extraordinary background, but it ultimately wasn’t his strength. If he didn’t have the protection of the giant behind him, he would be nothing.
Hence, he felt that Qin Chuan’s suggestion was extremely irrational.
“Patriarch Li, I will not change my mind on something I’ve decided. There’s no need for you to persuade me.
“Moreover, the reason why I proposed the compet.i.tion was to protect your Li family’s reputation.
“After all, I became your guest elder at such a young age.
“I’m sure your clansmen, not all, but at least eighty percent, certainly have disagreements about that.
“If the clan is already in such a state, then I’m sure the rest of the world will be too.
“So, this contest is very important. ”
Li Jingchen did not retort that.
He had already considered everything that Qin Chuan had said.
After all, Qin Chuan’s ident.i.ty was somewhat special.
Deciding to let him be a guest elder of the clan was indeed very stressful.
Fortunately, the elders were also very supportive of him. Otherwise, they would not have held such a grand appointment ceremony.
“Great Master Qin, you have given my clan so much consideration that I feel ashamed.
“As far as I know, this youth has already reached the standard of a first-rate martial artist.
“It’s not that easy to beat him,” Li Jingchen said worriedly.
Qin Chuan didn’t look like anything special. To others, it would take a miracle for him to win.
In the face of Li Jingchen’s worry, Qin Chuan only smiled faintly. He was shockingly arrogant.
“Even Land Immortals bow when they see me.
“A first-rate martial artist is nothing.”
