Chapter 331 Martial Arts... Nothing More Than That
Master Qin?
Respect him as you would a god?
These words left the Chu family even more bewildered.
So what exactly happened? They hadn't seen the patriarch and Qin Chuan interact at all, so why did their attitudes change so drastically?
I don't understand at all.
However, Chu Junlin did not explain much. His words carried immense weight in the Chu family, which meant that although everyone had many questions, they dared not ask any further.
Lu Zhengrong and his granddaughter exchanged a glance, both filled with emotion.
"Dad, he killed my nephew!" Qi Mei was indignant when she saw that even the old man was so respectful to Qin Chuan.
Chu Junlin glanced at Qi Mei and snorted coldly.
"You've offended a Divine Realm expert, and it's implicated your entire family. Don't you know that your Qi family is forbidden from stepping outside the Qi family compound for the next hundred years?"
"What?!" Qi Mei exclaimed in disbelief. "My father is a Divine Realm expert, how could he possibly fear Qin Tiandi?"
"If you don't believe me, you can call and ask yourself." After saying this, Chu Junlin turned and left the Chu family hall.
Qi Mei clearly didn't believe it and immediately called her family. The answer she received was exactly as Chu Jun had said: the Qi family members were not allowed to step out of the Qi family compound for a hundred years.
pat!
The phone fell to the ground.
Qi Mei was lost in thought.
……
On this day, Qin Chuan suppressed both the Qi and Chu families, but few people knew about it.
After leaving the Chu family, Qin Chuan took his younger sister to the Xiao family.
"Mr. Qin!"
Old Master Xiao and the rest of the Xiao family treated Qin Chuan with the utmost respect.
"Qin Chuan..." Xiao Xueqing's voice was soft and pleasant.
"Sister-in-law!" Qin Lan didn't stand on ceremony at all, calling Xiao Xueqing "sister-in-law."
And so, Xiao Xueqing lost herself amidst these repeated calls of "sister-in-law."
As a cultivator, Qin Chuan possessed exceptional hearing, so how could he not hear it? He could only manage a helpless smile.
The Xiao family valued Qin Chuan highly and prepared a very grand dinner that very evening.
"Oh ho, what exciting thing is going on in your Xiao family?"
However, during this dinner party, an extremely sarcastic voice rang out.
Upon hearing this voice, many members of the Xiao family turned pale, and the laughter and chatter that had filled the family instantly vanished.
A middle-aged man walked in, accompanied by a young couple, a man and a woman, both of whom were quite handsome.
A hint of displeasure flashed across Old Master Xiao's aged face.
"What are you doing here?"
Xiao Ran, Xiao Chuan, and the rest of the Xiao family glared angrily at the three of them.
Seeing the Xiao family's reaction, the middle-aged man smiled, completely unconcerned about their attitude.
The young couple behind them looked on with disdain.
"Incompetent barking!"
Upon hearing these four words, the Xiao family members were even more enraged.
"Get out!"
Qin Chuan ate slowly, without even raising his head.
As for who these three people were, he didn't care at all.
With his current strength, how many people in the entire Dragon Kingdom, or even on Earth, would dare to provoke him?
The Xiao family members then realized that with Emperor Qin Tian around, what did they have to fear?
but……
There was a hint of worry on Old Master Xiao's face.
When the middle-aged man and the young couple heard those three words, they both showed surprised expressions, clearly not expecting that someone from the Xiao family would dare to speak to them like that.
The three of them turned their gazes toward Qin Chuan with scrutiny, but soon their expressions turned disdainful.
"Old Master Xiao, what's wrong? Didn't you tell this young man who we are?" The middle-aged man continued walking towards the hall.
They completely disregarded Qin Chuan's words.
Grandpa Xiao said to Qin Chuan in a low voice, "Mr. Qin, these three people are not simple. Although they are not martial artists, their backgrounds are extremely powerful."
Qin Chuan continued eating, seemingly unconcerned.
Grandpa Xiao continued, "This man is called Zou Zishi, and the two behind him are his son and daughter. The Zou family is nothing in the capital, but Zou Zishi's brother-in-law is from the Qi family of the Dragon Kingdom."
"The Qi family?"
Upon hearing the name "Qi Family," Qin Chuan paused slightly before raising his head.
However, everyone interpreted his reaction as meaning that Qin Chuan knew about the Qi family and even valued them.
That's for sure.
The old patriarch of the Qi family was the number one war god who protected the country. Who would dare to provoke him?
Rumors say his strength has already reached its peak, but no one knows exactly what level he has reached. However, everyone guesses that he has probably already entered the divine realm.
Outside the world, the Divine Realm remains a legend, with everyone believing that Qin Chuan is the first Divine Realm expert in the past century.
This is the outside world, but once one's strength reaches a certain level, one will still know that the heads of the Chu and Qi families are both at the Divine Realm.
Not many people know this, not even the Xiao family; they can only guess.
Even if he's not at the God Realm, just that one identity is something these martial arts families can't afford to offend.
Zou Zishi laughed heartily: "Are you scared when you hear about the Qi family?"
"If you're scared, then kneel down and apologize!"
These words were spoken.
The Xiao family members all had strange expressions.
Undeniably, the Qi family is indeed terrifying, but Qin Chuan is no ordinary person either. He is the legendary Heavenly Emperor, and is even known as the God of Slaughter overseas.
That Zou Zishi has some nerve!
Some members of the Xiao family began to gloat.
Zou Zishi's son is named Zou Yi, and his daughter is named Zou Lin.
Both of them noticed the gloating expression on Xiao Jia's face and frowned.
What's going on?
The Xiao family shouldn't be afraid, instead they have this incomprehensible expression.
Qin Chuan asked with great interest, "Oh, what did the Qi family send you here for?"
"What? Do I need to explain how the Qi family conducts itself to an ant like you?" Zou Zishi naturally didn't intend to say much to Qin Chuan, who was just a nobody.
"Mr. Qin, the Qi family has been actively recruiting various martial arts families recently. Many martial arts families in the capital have already submitted to the Qi family, and there are also at least more than twenty martial arts families of all sizes from other cities who have come under the Qi family's wing."
Old Master Xiao then explained, "However, my Xiao family follows you, so naturally we will not submit to the Qi family."
Qin Chuan nodded, not paying much attention to it. In his eyes, these families, big and small, were like ants.
"What, aren't you going to come over and kneel down to apologize?"
Zou Zishi put his hands in his pockets, raised his chin, and looked like he didn't know who his opponent was.
"The Xiao family will soon become our vassal martial arts family. If you kneel down and apologize now, I might still give you a place to stand; otherwise..."
He grunted twice at this point and didn't continue.
Zou Yi and Zou Lin both crossed their arms and stared at Qin Chuan with disdain.
For an ignorant child, kneeling down and apologizing is the wisest choice.
Even if they are not martial artists, they have the Qi family behind them. So what if the Xiao family is a martial arts family?
You still have to grovel before them.
During this period, countless martial arts families treated them with utmost respect.
This also gave them a misconception.
Martial arts... are nothing more than that.
The two young men no longer took martial arts seriously, nor did they think about cultivating it, because martial arts could never compare to real power.
In this world, power and connections matter.
"What, you don't want to get down..." Zou Yi said impatiently, but he hadn't finished speaking.
"Kneel down!"
Qin Chuan's voice slowly rang out.
Boom!
A powerful aura pressed down upon them.
thump!
Before Zou Zishi could react, he was forced to his knees by the pressure of the aura. His knees collided heavily with the ground, and his bones shattered.
"what……"
Immediately following was his pig-like scream.
