After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

"Replying to Elder Zou, this is my distant cousin. After hearing about the Li family's search for a son-in-law, he insisted on coming here, and I simply couldn't refuse..."

After a while, Liang Yong's eyes darted around, and he suddenly came up with a reason.

"Ha ha ha ha…"

Upon hearing Liang Yong's words, everyone from Wuji Palace burst into laughter.

"Liang Yong, Liang Yong, your cousin is too much of a toad trying to eat swan meat. Do you think he can come to a place like this?"

“That’s right. This is the Li family’s residence. I think that apart from Senior Brother Zhong, the rest of us are just here to make a show of things.”

"That's right! The Li family has already stated that they won't only consider cultivation level when choosing a son-in-law. With Senior Brother Zhong's appearance, he's sure to win Li Yun Chu's heart at first sight!"

"..."

While the Wuji Palace members were making sarcastic remarks about Qin Chuan, they also began to flatter another handsome disciple.

He was one of the two Xuanwang at the fifth level.

"hehe…"

Liang Yong gave a helpless, silly smile, not daring to say another word.

Although he was older than all of them, the cultivation levels of the people present were generally higher than his, so they naturally didn't take him seriously.

He kept observing Qin Chuan's expression, feeling extremely uneasy.

They were worried that if the other party became unhappy, they would kill them all.

In Liang Yong's opinion, apart from Elder Zou, no one present could rival Qin Chuan's strength.

Fortunately, Liang Yong did not see any change in the other person's expression.

"Cousin?"

Hearing Liang Yong's words, Elder Zou frowned, feeling that something was amiss.

He hadn't noticed the other party's presence when they were at the teleportation array.

If one were to rush into the teleportation array at the last moment, they would surely be stopped by the array elder.

Deep down, he had a feeling that something was wrong.

"Perhaps I remembered it wrong..." Elder Zou took a swig of wine and stopped thinking about these headache-inducing things.

"All right!"

After a moment, Elder Zou interrupted the commotion, pointed to the black world in the distance, and spoke calmly.

"Little ones, look carefully, that's the Li family's territory, and that thing overhead that can turn the sun and moon upside down is the Li family's most precious treasure!"

Upon hearing this, the people of Wuji Palace fell silent and looked into the distance, their eyes revealing a strange light.

Seeing that the middle-aged man with the bulbous nose was no longer looking in his direction, Qin Chuan breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

He knew he had gotten away with it without any real danger.

"Ha ha ha ha…"

Just as Elder Zou was about to say something more, a burst of laughter suddenly rang out from afar.

From the dark Li family compound in the distance, several long streaks of light could be seen rushing in.

"Zou, you drunkard, why would your Wuji Palace send you here? I could smell the stench of alcohol on you from a mile away!"

A voice filled with discontent echoed around as Fei Hong drew nearer.

"You old man Li, why can't I come? I said I'd drink that mulberry wine to my heart's content this time at your Li family's house!"

Elder Zou laughed loudly, and his body suddenly flew up, heading straight for one of the several figures in the sky.

"This sound..."

Qin Chuan took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, and vaguely saw an old man inside the rainbow.

This person had snow-white hair and a tall, thin build; he was the protector who had been by Li Guyi's side back then.

“Fellow Daoist, this person is Li Ziming of the Li family, who was originally Li Guyi’s protector.”

"I just heard that after Li Guyi died in the Tai'e inheritance, he became Li Yunchu's protector."

Seeing that Qin Chuan's gaze was fixed on Li Ziming, Liang Yong's eyes flickered, and he quickly began to introduce him.

He knew his life was in Qin Chuan's hands.

Only by making a good impression on the other party can one have a chance to survive.

"Ok!"

Qin Chuan nodded, and was about to speak when he suddenly looked up into the distance.

A blinding light suddenly appeared, and as it spread, Elder Zou and Li Ziming in the sky both turned to look.

As the light faded, more than a dozen figures emerged from within. As they gradually became clearer, Qin Chuan frowned, his eyes turning somewhat cold.

These dozen or so people were none other than the Wang family members!

There were both men and women present, and when they appeared at this moment, most of them looked around, especially at the Li Family Mountain Range in the distant night sky.

At the very front of these people stood an old man with a calm expression. As he walked forward, he looked up at Li Ziming and Elder Zou of Wuji Palace in the sky.

"Zou, you drunkard, why did Wuji Palace send you this time? Aren't you worried that you'll mess things up because of your drinking?" the old man from the Wang family said with a smile.

"Screw you!"

Elder Zou took a swig of wine and said with dissatisfaction, "Although I drink a little wine occasionally, when has anything ever gone wrong under my watch!"

The old man from the Wang family smiled and shook his head, clearly familiar with Elder Zou's drinking habits.

He didn't say much, but simply clasped his hands slightly in a fist salute to Li Ziming.

Behind the old man, among the Wang family members, Wang Teng's figure was clearly visible.

He was dressed in white, with an indifferent expression, and was currently frowning, looking as if he had something on his mind.

A cold glint would occasionally flash in his eyes.

He stood there conspicuously, his handsome face and perfect demeanor making him seem almost impeccable.

Beside him was Wang Xifan.

The old man had an arrogant expression. His gaze swept across the Li Family Mountain Range in the distance before landing on the group from Wuji Palace.

Suddenly, he frowned and looked down at the last person.

For some reason, he felt that this person looked somewhat familiar.

"It's him! He's actually a disciple of the Wuji Palace!"

Before Wang Xifan could even recall who the other person was, Wang Teng looked at Qin Chuan with a mixture of surprise and intense resentment in his eyes.

Qin Chuan also looked at Wang Teng. The two were separated by the crowd and hundreds of feet, but their gazes met in an instant.

Just like when they fought each other at the second inheritance site of the Tai'e Inheritance.

“It’s you!” Wang Teng’s eyes flashed with intense hatred.

His right index finger was now stinging with pain, the very finger that had been severed by his opponent.

That once crystal-clear finger had turned completely black, with wisps of black energy faintly visible emanating from it and coiling around his entire right hand.

Seeing Qin Chuan here was something Wang Teng never expected.

Despite not seeing each other for a long time, he recognized the little cultivator he had previously regarded as an ant, yet who had cut off his index finger, at a glance.

That is why he missed the opportunity to inherit the mantle.

Upon seeing Qin Chuan again, Wang Teng's breathing became somewhat rapid, but he quickly regained his composure and averted his gaze.

"Since we've met here, let's find an opportunity to use this man's blood to consecrate my poisonous finger!"

Wang Teng remained calm, but a sense of arrogance gradually emerged.

Because his status is now completely different from before; he is now the Daoist of the Wang family!

Regardless of what happened between them in the past, he was a member of the Wang family, the Daozi of the Wang family!

Here, he was high and mighty, while Qin Chuan was just an ordinary disciple of the Wuji Palace.

In Wang Teng's eyes, he was no different from an ant!
