After the maid poured the tea, Qin Chu looked at Qian Lingwu, "After I came out of Qingyun Sect, I went to Tianxiang Valley. I communicated with Zihuan, who is from Tianxiang Valley. She said that she would not actively go against you. That means if you don't attack her, she won't become your enemy."
"Is that all?" Qian Lingwu didn't expect Qin Chu to come for this matter. She thought Qin Chu had something personal.
"Yes, that day you asked me who I would favor if you and Zihuan clashed. I said I didn't want either of you to be harmed, so I had to resolve some things," Qin Chu said.
Qian Lingwu didn't expect Qin Chu to take this matter so seriously, which raised her evaluation of Qin Chu even higher.
After sizing up Qin Chu, Qian Lingwu stood up, "Let's go to the garden to talk."
After arriving at the garden, Qian Lingwu dismissed the maid, then looked at Qin Chu, "I want to ask you something. If the Qian Dynasty doesn't move against Qingyun Sect, will your Qingyun Sect try to shake the Qian Dynasty's ruling position?"
"Probably not. From what I understand, Qingyun Sect just wants to develop its Legacy and has no ambition for power. Elder Mo, Elder Ling, Sect Master Luo, and Vice Sect Master Lu have no ambitions. If they really attack the Qian Dynasty, then I won't interfere," Qin Chu thought for a moment and said.
"How do you mean 'not interfere'?" Qian Lingwu asked, looking at Qin Chu.
"I will try my best to persuade you not to attack Qingyun Sect, which is loyalty to the Sect; not helping the Sect attack you is full righteousness. If you disregard my feelings, then I can only helplessly retreat," Qin Chu said.
"I understand what you mean. That is to say, if I keep my promise, and if Qingyun Sect actively causes trouble, then it's not my responsibility, and you won't blame me, right?" Qian Lingwu asked, looking at Qin Chu.
Qin Chu nodded, "That's what I mean."
"I will keep this promise. I hope Qingyun Sect maintains its current development path, otherwise, it will be very dangerous," Qian Lingwu said. Previously, she thought that if she didn't act, the Qian Dynasty couldn't do anything to Qingyun Sect, but she doesn't think so now. Qian Lingtian is just low-key; he can accomplish some things.
"If you don't act, will there be danger?" Qin Chu smiled.
"I thought so before, but the truth is not! You see that I have changed, right? Do you know why? Because I learned some secrets. The top master in this area is not me, but my Imperial Brother. In the past, he lived a low-key life, mainly to attract assassinations from hostile forces' masters, to protect my safety. Many things he did were for me," Qian Lingwu said.
"Sixth-stage?" Qin Chu looked at Qian Lingwu in surprise.
"That's right, and he's even at the Middle Stage of the Sixth-stage King Realm. He hasn't changed; he's always silently protected me. This time he spoke his mind because he found that I was disappointed in my family and him, and my personality had changed, so he explained everything," Qian Lingwu said.
Qin Chu cupped his hands to Qian Lingwu, "Then I congratulate you."
"Thank you. Explaining the situation to you is to tell you that my Imperial Brother has the ability to resolve some matters. If Qingyun Sect doesn't oppose the Qian Dynasty with the other three Sects, then everything will be fine, because the Qian Dynasty area needs Sects to Cultivate cultivators," Qian Lingwu said.
"I will make this clear to the high-ranking members of Qingyun Sect," Qin Chu nodded.
"Also, regarding Zihuan, I suggested to my Imperial Brother that if Zihuan doesn't become an enemy of the Qian Dynasty, then our Qian Dynasty will not attack her. That would be a loss of combat power in this area. We have many external enemies in this area. Unless absolutely necessary, we will not start a civil war. Now, the three major Sects are all entangled with outside forces," Qian Lingwu said to Qin Chu.
"No, Zihuan will not become an enemy of anyone without reason," Qin Chu said.
"Our two matters are settled. There seem to be no major problems!" Qian Lingwu said, looking at Qin Chu.
"There should be no problems. If they don't listen to me, then I can't help it, after all, I've done what I should," Qin Chu said.
"These are all solvable matters, nothing major. The food and drink are almost ready, let's eat and talk," Qian Lingwu was in high spirits. Qian Lingtian's words warmed her heart; Qin Chu's arrival made her realize she still had friends she could trust. Qin Chu nodded, "Then I'll try the royal feast. Last time you didn't take me seriously and didn't entertain me properly."
After eating in Lingwu Palace, Qian Lingwu took Qin Chu to stroll around the Great Qian Imperial Capital. The Qian Dynasty has a very long Legacy and many scenic spots and historical sites.
Zhong Han and Qian Qing knew about this, and both were greatly shocked. What was this situation? This meant that they had no chance to deal with Qin Chu or take revenge.
They wouldn't dare to touch someone close to Qian Lingwu, even if they had eight times the courage. Qin Chu had tricked them, yet he could still enjoy himself in the Great Qian Imperial Capital. How could they not be angry? But there was nothing they could do. Whom could they seek? Seeking Cao Tian was useless. They were present when Cao Tian was dealt with by Qian Lingwu that day. Cao Tian, being reprimanded by Qian Lingwu, didn't even dare to fart.
Seek the Qian Emperor? Qian Qing didn't dare to see the Qian Emperor, and besides, he didn't even have the qualification to enter the Imperial Palace because he had been expelled from the Qian clan. It was due to their master-disciple relationship that Zhong Han took him in.
"Do we have no other way?" Qian Qing asked, full of unwillingness.
"Wait for an opportunity! Qian Lingwu is so arrogant, the Qian Emperor won't tolerate her for long. When he can't tolerate her anymore, your opportunity will come," Zhong Han said. It was because he felt an opportunity would come that Zhong Han took in Qian Qing; this was also an investment in a favor.
Cao Tian was also very angry. His nephew was killed, but the Qian Dynasty had no intention of attacking Tianxiang Valley. This meant his nephew died for nothing. But he couldn't do anything; he didn't have the qualification to shake Qian Lingwu.
Inside the Great Qian Imperial Palace, Qian Lingtian was reading a book, with a guard beside him recounting the situation of some officials in the Great Qian Imperial Capital.
"There's another matter. Today, the Eldest Princess left Lingwu Palace and was strolling around the Imperial Capital with a young man. Both had joyful expressions," Qian Lingtian's guard said.
"Oh? There's such a thing. Where are they now?" Qian Lingtian closed the classic. He was very interested in this news.
"They walked around the Imperial Capital, had tea at a teahouse, and then returned to Lingwu Palace," the attendant said.
"Alright, you may leave!" Qian Lingtian tidied his robes and then walked towards Lingwu Palace. He remembered that his Imperial Sister didn't interact with many people. Why would she take a boy out today? This was too unusual. He wanted to see what was going on.
Qian Lingtian arrived while Qin Chu and Qian Lingwu were sparring.
"Imperial Brother, why are you here?" Seeing Qian Lingtian arrive, Qian Lingwu was surprised.
