Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

Xu Qingzhou did not take the thirty-six clansmen with him on the flying boat to the capital.

Instead, they chose to take one-third of the clan members on the Lingyue Sect's flying boat, while the other two-thirds traveled as independent cultivators on the Wanbaoge flying boat. Xu Chu was one of them.

Upon arriving in the capital, they continued to participate in the selection competition as independent cultivators.

This is also to keep a low profile.

After all, when the Xu family came last time, there were only a few people, but this time there were thirty-six. Such a big change is hard not to attract attention.

Xu Qingzhou didn't care about other forces; the key was the royal family.

Before having the strength to confront the royal family, keeping a low profile is always beneficial.

Have a night's rest.

The following day, at the martial arts training ground in the east of the city.

Xu Qingzhou led one-third of the Xu family members, standing in an inconspicuous corner, while the other two-thirds were scattered among the independent cultivators.

Xu Qingzhou didn't go with the people from the Lingyue Sect's Wanbao Pavilion because that would be too conspicuous and make him an easy target if he joined them.

Elder Li was still leading the Lingyue Sect team this time. He asked via telepathy, "Should we free up a few spots for the young people from the Xu family?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Elder Li. I brought them here mainly to give them some experience. Whether they get a spot or not is not important," Xu Qingzhou replied.

A short while later, the Wanbaoge team leader, who had noticed him, also asked the same question via telepathy, and Xu Qingzhou replied in a similar manner.

Xu Chu and Xu Chen are certain to get a spot. Others who get one are skilled, and those who don't are not strong enough. Xu Qingzhou doesn't force them to get one.

If they are clearly not strong enough, but are still given a spot, then once they enter the secret realm, they will perish if they encounter powerful enemies or monsters. It would be better not to go at all.

Standing in the corner, Xu Qingzhou still noticed several hostile gazes, and he turned his head to look.

We are all old friends.

Taixu Sect, Danqi Sect, Qixing Sect, and the Lan family, which had long since moved to other places.

At this moment, they probably wish they could all rush over and slaughter the entire Xu family.

If nothing unexpected happens, Xu Qingzhou's family members will be targeted by them, whether in the selection competition or in the secret realm.

Xu Qingzhou didn't care. It's normal to experience some hardships on the path of cultivation. What doesn't defeat them will only make them stronger.

At this moment, the group from the Great Qi Academy appeared, led by the Ninth Prince as always.

Although the Ninth Prince had graduated long ago, he remained at the Great Qi Academy to expand his network and develop his own power. His status in the academy was extremely high, which was a major asset in his struggle for the throne.

The Ninth Prince was tall and imposing, radiating a faint golden light, and his powerful aura was as imposing as a mountain.

He is much stronger now than he was ten years ago.

Like Su Xinyan, he was in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, but he broke through earlier than Su Xinyan and was also slightly stronger.

Xu Qingzhou, who once looked up to him, has now surpassed him.

As soon as the Ninth Prince arrived, he became the focus of attention, and leaders from various factions went over to greet him.

However, amidst the puzzled looks of the crowd, the Ninth Prince walked straight toward Xu Qingzhou.

Xu Qingzhou could see a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

After all, Xu Qingzhou ruined his plans and snatched away Yu Shufei, the treasure he had almost obtained.

If he could act here, he would have done so without hesitation.

"This must be Su Xin, the Supreme Elder of the Lingyue Sect, and Xu Qingzhou, the son-in-law of Yu Tianzhuo, the Pavilion Master of Wanbaoge."

Xu Qingzhou replied politely, "Your Highness is too kind."

what?

Am I fucking praising you? You think I'm overpraising you?!

The Ninth Prince remained calm. "Clan Chief Xu is exceptionally talented. I look forward to the day I can spar with you."

"It is my great honor to have the opportunity to spar with Your Highness," Xu Qingzhou replied.

That's ridiculous. When you finally get a chance to fight me, I'll take you down in one move!

Just then, exclamations came from afar. It turned out that the Sixth Princess, Song Yushu, had arrived. She was tall and slender, dressed in full armor, with a blue longsword at her waist. Her eyes were sharp, and her aura was majestic, just like a great general.

Of all the powerful figures present, only the Ninth Prince could barely meet his gaze.

Seeing the Ninth Prince standing on Xu Qingzhou's side, Song Yushu thought he was going to cause trouble for Xu Qingzhou, so she also came over.

"Sixth Sister," the Ninth Prince greeted, bowing.

Even though the Ninth Prince was the most talented among the royal children, the Sixth Princess, who had spent many years in the army and was filled with a murderous aura, still firmly suppressed the Ninth Prince in terms of presence.

"Why is Ninth Brother standing in such a remote spot?"

The Ninth Prince replied, "I've come to have a chat with Clan Chief Xu."

"Are you done talking?" Song Yushu asked.

"The chat is over."

"Then why aren't you leaving?"

"Let's go now."

The Ninth Prince turned and left, a flash of coldness passing through his eyes. He was clearly more powerful than Song Yushu, but his aura was steadily suppressed, which made him feel aggrieved.

After he left, the imposing aura on Song Yushu's pretty face dissipated slightly.

Why didn't Xinyan come along this time?

Xu Qingzhou replied, "She is in seclusion."

Actually, no. She came along last time because she and Xu Qingzhou were deeply in love and didn't want to be apart for days.

We're an old married couple now, so being apart for a few days is nothing.

"I see," a hint of regret flashed across Song Yushu's beautiful face.

She doesn't have many friends, and Su Xinyan is one of them. She wants to talk to her friends about many things, but she couldn't meet her this time, which naturally makes her feel regretful.

After a brief chat, Song Yushu returned to the royal entourage.

The Ninth Prince and the Sixth Princess approached Xu Qingzhou one after the other, which drew the attention of many people present.

"So he's the man known as the ultimate gigolo. He looks ordinary and nothing special. How did he manage to win the hearts of two exceptionally beautiful women?"

"Such a life of being a kept man is something most people can't afford."

"I really want to ask him for advice."

"Tch~ What's so great about them? Despite having the backing of top-tier forces like the Lingyue Sect and the Wanbao Pavilion, their family only has a few members at the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. They're really useless."

“That’s right. I’ll instruct my Wang family members to intensify our efforts when we encounter the Xu family later.”

Xu Qingzhou originally wanted to keep a low profile, but now he has been noticed by so many people.

He's fine, but the young people in the Xu family are going to suffer.

Registration had closed, and the lottery for the competition had begun.
