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

The Great Qian Dynasty was remote and barren, lacking in spiritual energy and possessing very few natural resources.

In addition, the vast desert blocks the way, so few cultivators go there.

Even if someone goes to the Great Qian Dynasty out of curiosity or some other reason, they will be disappointed when they find out what's going on there.

Even many people from the nearest ancient kingdom were unaware that humans existed on the other side of the desert.

With the release of the Prodigy Ranking, Song Yushu, who has awakened the Emperor's Physique, was unexpectedly exposed.

The remote and impoverished Daqian region once again came into the public eye.

Even as the young master of the You family, one of the four major families in Duanshan City, You Jingyi was challenged by so many people and ultimately had no choice but to accept the challenge.

Moreover, Song Yushu is the ruler of a remote little place.

They would stop at nothing to climb the Heavenly Pride Ranking.

It was almost inevitable that he would bring powerful members of his family to the Great Qian Dynasty and continuously challenge Song Yushu.

For the Xu family, it doesn't matter whether Song Yushu wins or loses.

However, the Great Qian Dynasty cannot be thrown into chaos, and the Xu family must not be implicated.

Most importantly, we must not allow them to freely investigate the Azure Dragon Secret Realm after they have noticed it.

Therefore, the Xu family must return as soon as possible and send out their strongest forces.

Xu Qingzhou and Elder Kong returned together, and Su Xinyan, worried about Song Yushu, also came back with them.

They thought they had arrived quickly and in time, but to their surprise, when they arrived in the capital of the Great Qian Dynasty, they found that Song Yushu was already fighting with the challenger.

As soon as Xu Qingzhou and his two companions arrived at the palace, an old man in a gray robe appeared before them.

"Greetings, Clan Chief Xu. I am from the Wei family of the Wu Kingdom. My young master is currently fighting against Song Yushu, who is ranked forty-ninth on the Heavenly Pride Ranking."

Xu Qingzhou instantly understood.

They came from the Wu Kingdom, the closest kingdom to the Great Qian Dynasty, and were the number one family in the Wu Kingdom, even stronger than the You family in overall strength.

Xu Chen's wedding was held at the You family's house, which is how he met Xu Qingzhou.

Xu Qingzhou said, "I rushed back specifically because I was worried that too many challengers would come and cause turmoil in the Great Qian Dynasty, which would affect my Xu family members who remained here."

The gray-robed elder instantly understood and quickly said, "Clan Chief Xu, rest assured, we have only come here to challenge Song Yushu and have no other intentions. It will absolutely not affect the Great Qian Dynasty."

The You family is inferior to the Wei family, and the Xu family, with only one Nascent Soul Realm cultivator and one Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator, is even less comparable.

But now everyone knows that the three prodigies of the Xu family have all become disciples of the Lord of Shenque Mansion, and the Xu family represents Shenque Mansion.

That's why he was so respectful to Xu Qingzhou.

Even if their own Wu Kingdom's ruler were to come, it would be the same.

Xu Qingzhou replied, "That would be excellent."

They looked up and saw Song Yushu and the young master of the Wei family locked in a fierce battle high in the sky.

Like Song Yushu, the young master of the Wei family is at the second level of the Heavenly Palace.

Xu Qingzhou thought to himself.

"Why doesn't he challenge You Jingyi, who is ranked 50th, but instead goes after Song Yushu, who is ranked 49th? Isn't it because he's afraid of offending the You family? He always picks on the weak."

No one knew how long they had been fighting. After Xu Qingzhou and the other two arrived, just over the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Song Yushu blasted the Wei family's young master, who had been at a disadvantage, down from the sky.

Young Master Wei wanted to continue fighting, but his figure suddenly stopped halfway through his flight. It was highly likely that the gray-robed elder had communicated the situation to him telepathically. He immediately turned around, flew over, and cupped his hands in greeting.

"Clan Chief Xu, how have you been?"

After some polite exchanges, the old man in the gray robe left with the young master of the Wei family.

It was obvious that Xu Qingzhou was on Song Yushu's side. Even if they continued fighting, he would still lose. It was better to leave as soon as possible and not risk displeasing Xu Qingzhou.

Xu Qingzhou and Su Xinyan followed Song Yushu to her palace and explained the matter of the Heavenly Pride Ranking to her in detail.

Song Yushu frowned slightly.

"So, in other words, many more prodigies will be arriving to challenge me?"

Young Master Wei had only just arrived, and they were too lazy to waste time with pleasantries. Young Master Wei directly stated that he wanted to challenge her.

With the gray-robed elder at the Integration Realm present, Song Yushu had no choice but to fight the young master of the Wei family, and she didn't even dare to use her full strength.

Only after noticing Xu Qingzhou and his group's arrival did she unleash her full power to defeat the young master of the Wei family.

Now that she hears them say this, she knows that there will be more challenges like this in the future, which is giving her a headache.

If she had a choice, she really wouldn't want to be on that list of prodigies, nor would she want to fight those people.

Xu Qingzhou thought the same way; he didn't want those people to come to Daqian.

Su Xinyan said, "I do have a way that satisfies both sides."

Xu Qingzhou and Song Yushu both looked at her.

Su Xinyan smiled gently.

“You can come back to Duanshan City with us. We will announce to the public that you two are engaged, so that everyone knows. You will then live in the Xu family’s residence.”

"This way, we can avoid most of the challenges and also prevent those people from coming to Daqian and affecting Daqian."

Almost all cultivators are bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong. If there are ten people challenging You Jingyi, who is ranked 50th, then there are at least a hundred people challenging Song Yushu, who is ranked 49th.

It was precisely because the Great Qian Dynasty lacked both background and strength.

But if Song Yushu becomes Xu Qingzhou's wife, things will be different; at least she can avoid most of the challenges.

Once she arrives in Broken Mountain City, those who challenged her will no longer come to the Great Qian Dynasty, thus preventing turmoil in the Great Qian and even the discovery of the secrets of the Azure Dragon Secret Realm.

Therefore, this is indeed a win-win solution.

But something just feels off. If it weren't for that last sentence, it would seem like a wife finding a concubine for her husband.

Su Xinyan looked at Xu Qingzhou.

"what do you think?"

Xu Qingzhou nodded and said, "That's good, a good method."

Su Xinyan then looked at Song Yushu.

"Do you want to?"

A fleeting hint of hesitation crossed Song Yushu's beautiful eyes before she affirmed, "I'm willing!"

“Alright, then we shouldn’t delay. You should quickly find a trustworthy minister to act as regent, and then we’ll go back immediately,” Su Xinyan said, standing up.

Song Yushu was not one to procrastinate; once she made up her mind, she immediately took action.

She found the current prime minister, briefly explained the situation, and issued an imperial edict appointing him to act as regent. Then, she left Daqian with Xu Qingzhou and the other person.

Just to be on the safe side, Elder Kong decided to stay temporarily and reside at Qixing Mountain.

Upon returning to Duanshan City, Xu Qingzhou immediately arranged for people to announce his engagement to Song Yushu.

Those who didn't know the inside story were stunned when they heard the news.

"We're all still busy challenging people on the Prodigy Ranking, but Chief Xu pulled a fast one and lured them home. Brilliant!"

"Is there still such an operation?"

"I've seen people recruit those on the Prodigy Ranking, but I've never seen anyone take them down directly."

"Impressive, impressive! I've never heard of such a method before."
