Upon hearing the servant's words just now, Xiao Huan's face lit up with joy, and she exclaimed, "Miss, did you hear that? The Young Master of the Li Family has arrived!"
"Wait until the Young Master comes. Let's see if Young Patriarch Chen still dares to act arrogantly!"
Although Li Xun and Qin Xueyi had not officially married yet, in Xiao Huan's eyes, it was already a settled matter. Not only her, but many servants of the Qin Family secretly referred to Li Xun as "Young Master."
However, because she was too excited, Xiao Huan didn't notice that Qin Xueyi had frozen completely at this moment.
"How is this possible?" Qin Xueyi muttered to herself.
It shouldn't be like this!
If she didn't remember wrongly, Li Xun was supposed to arrive in Fallen Leaf City seven days later. It had only been one night, so how did he arrive so soon?
Keep in mind that Fallen Leaf City was tens of thousands of miles away from Xuanyang Sect. Even if it was Li Xun, not to mention a high-ranking elder of Xuanyang Sect, it was impossible for him to come here in such a short time.
"Is it because of my rebirth?" Qin Xueyi wondered.
She had thought about it for a whole night yesterday. Since she was a reborn person, she should be able to intervene in many things. With her involvement, the future might completely change and head towards an unknown direction.
But what she didn't expect was that, even though she hadn't done anything yet, things were already showing signs of going awry.
Li Xun, who was supposed to arrive seven days later, had arrived in Fallen Leaf City just one night later.
In the hall, upon hearing the servant's words, Qin Tianhai stood up suddenly, and a pleasantly surprised expression appeared on his face. He exclaimed, "Oh? nephew Li has come so quickly? Quickly, please bring him in!"
"Yes!" The servant answered and quickly left.
At this moment, Chen Youshang, who was sitting on the chair, had an extremely gloomy expression, and it seemed like water might drip from his face.
He just addressed Qin Tianhai as "Uncle" a moment ago, and now Qin Tianhai was already calling Li Xun "nephew." The difference in their relationships waws clear at a glance.
"You old fool who doesn't know what's good for you!" Chen Youshang narrowed his eyes, and a hint of coldness flickered in his eyes as he coldly stared at the overjoyed Qin Tianhai.
"Master, what should we do?" At this moment, the black-clothed old man behind Chen Youshang asked through a transmission.
"No hurry, let's watch for now. Today, with me here, the Qin Family and the Li Family of Tianyuan City won't be able to form a marriage alliance!" Chen Youshang responded through transmission.
His cultivation had reached the early stage of the Spirit Connection Realm. Although he had relied on pills to reach this level, it was still genuine. Later, he would let that young man from the Li Family make a fool of himself, and then spread the word in Fallen Leaf City.
Even if Qin Tianhai was determined to form an alliance with the Li Family, he shouldn't forget that this was Fallen Leaf City!
Fallen Leaf City was not only the stronghold of the Qin Family but also the stronghold of the Chen Family.
While Li Xun, the Young Master of the Li Family, could enter Fallen Leaf City, it wouldn't be that simple for him to leave. After all, this was not Tianyuan City!
Once the Young Master of the Li Family dies, who will Qin Tianhai form a marriage alliance with?
It's hard to say, as the Li Family may blame them for it. By then…
Hmph!
Chen Youshang sneered, revealing a cold smile on his face. In his opinion, if the Young Master of the Li Family were to die, Qin Tianhai would have no choice but to turn to his Chen Family for help.
Thinking about this, Chen Youshang casually picked up the tea next to him and took a sip, looking as if he was watching a show.
However, to his surprise, after Qin Tianhai had excitedly taken two steps forward, he suddenly shouted towards the outside, "Someone! Bring me the best tea!"
"Hmm?" Chen Youshang's expression froze upon hearing this, and he looked at the tea in his hand with a constipated expression. After a moment, an old and a young figure appeared in the courtyard, led by a servant.
The leader was a young man dressed in white. He had a dignified bearing, with his hair flowing naturally, and his eyes sparkled like stars, exuding a gentle smile that made people feel close to him.
When he arrived in front of the hall, the young man in white slightly bowed and said with a clear voice, "I am Li Xun, I'm paying my respects to Uncle Qin!"
"Excellent!" Qin Tianhai exclaimed in praise. He walked towards Li Xun with big strides and continued, "Truly worthy to be Li Wuyou's son, indeed a talented young man!"
"Uncle Qin, you flatter me," Li Xun replied with a smile.
Qin Tianhai continued, "You've had a long journey. Come in and rest for a while. I've just prepared some top-grade spirit tea for you. Give it a taste. If you like it, feel free to take some with you when you leave!"
Saying that, Qin Tianhai approached Li Xun and grabbed his arm, leading him into the hall.
Once inside the hall, Li Xun casually glanced around. When he saw Chen Youshang, he only gave him a brief look and didn't pay much attention to him. In his eyes, Chen Youshang might be a younger member of the Qin Family.
As Qin Tianhai didn't introduce him, Li Xun didn't bother to greet him either.
At this moment, Li Xun was actually searching for the whereabouts of the blue-colored potential investor mentioned by the system outside the door.
After scanning the hall, Li Xun couldn't find any trace and retracted his gaze. In his current situation, he couldn't directly use his spiritual sense to search the entire Qin Family. It would be a very disrespectful act and easily lead to misunderstandings.
"I can only search around tonight and hope to find some clues," Li Xun thought to himself.
The few of them took their seats, and a servant brought a cup of spirit tea for Li Xun. He took it and sipped it lightly before placing it aside.
"Dear nephew, how is Li Daoxiong doing recently?" Qin Tianhai asked first.
"Father is doing well. I appreciate Uncle Qin's concern. When I return home next time, I will definitely pass on your greetings to my father," Li Xun replied with a smile.
"Good, good," Qin Tianhai expressed great satisfaction.
Compared to Chen Youshang, the more Qin Tianhai looked at Li Xun, the more satisfied he was. Not only was Li Xun handsome and outstanding, but he was also knowledgeable and had a sense of propriety in his actions.
This kind of son-in-law was hard to find even if you searched with a lantern!
Not to mention that Li Xun's cultivation had already reached the later stage of the Spirit Connection Realm. With Qin Tianhai's discerning eye, he could tell that Li Xun's foundation was solid, far from comparable to someone like Chen Youshang, who relied on pills to advance.
"Since you have come today, dear nephew, you should stay in Fallen Leaf City for a few days. This will allow me, as your uncle, to show some hospitality," Qin Tianhai said.
"I'll trouble you, Uncle," Li Xun nodded slightly and then glanced at Chen Youshang, signaling to his father.
"Uncle, I came here today because I have something to discuss," Li Xun began.
But before he could finish speaking…
"Hmph!" A cold snort suddenly came from the side.
Chen Youshang had finally found an opportunity to make his presence felt after being ignored for so long.
So, if I don't speak out to you two, you will pretend I don't exist?
