"Huh?" Lin Xiaotian frowned, feeling that Butler Cao was a little stubborn.
"Master, aren't you surprised why Qin Feng suddenly visited the Lin family?" Butler Cao asked.
Lin Xiaotian said: "It's just that you want to get some benefits from me."
"I'm afraid, it's not that simple. If I remember correctly, Qin Feng should be exactly sixteen years old now." Cao Guanjia said.
"Sixteen years old?" Lin Xiaotian suddenly thought of something, his face changed drastically, and he said to Cao Guanjia: "What do you mean?"
Guan Cao said: "Engagement! He must be here for Lin Xue!"
Lin Xue was Lin Xiaotian's daughter born to his first wife, Su Qiaoer, sixteen years ago. At first, Lin Xiaotian and his wife had a very close relationship with Qin Xiaochi and his wife, so they got married by fingertips and made such an engagement.
But sixteen years have passed, Qin Xiaochi and his wife have been missing for thirteen years, and Su Qiaoer has been dead for more than ten years. After Lin Xiaotian married Yuan Ziyi, he became even more indifferent to Lin Xue, and even left her in Puying City. It grows and dies on its own.
In the past, Lin Xiaotian wouldn't have cared much about who wanted to marry Lin Xue. But Chu Feiyun, the third prince of the Banyue Motie Kingdom, met Lin Xue while visiting the Daqian Kingdom and fell in love with him at first sight.
The Motie Kingdom and the Daqian Kingdom are not only neighboring countries, they have been friends with each other for hundreds of years and are as close as one country. If Lin Xue marries the prince of the Motie Kingdom, this will certainly be a good thing for the Lin family.
But even so, Lin Xiaotian still didn't care too much. He felt that Prince Chu was just a whim at most, and even if he married Lin Xue, it would be nothing more than a concubine. This would be of little help to the Lin family.
But when Lin Xiaotian brought Lin Xue back, he suddenly discovered that Lin Xue's cultivation had reached the sixth level of body tempering. What was terrifying was that she had not condensed her martial soul, and her body began to emit a shocking cold air!
It should be noted that under normal circumstances, a martial soul can be condensed after reaching the fourth level of body tempering. The later the martial soul is condensed, the higher the grade of the martial soul.
Even the sixth level of body tempering failed to condense the martial soul, which means that Lin Xue's martial soul is likely to be above the sixth level! In the future, his cultivation level can even reach the realm of Nirvana! Such a talent is the most popular in the entire Daqian Kingdom. This is a once-in-a-century opportunity!
A few days ago, Prince Chu had officially paid a visit and sincerely expressed his intention to marry Lin Xue as the princess of Motie Kingdom.
However, that's not all. In addition to Prince Chu, the sixth prince of the Daqian Kingdom also expressed his intention to marry Lin Xue and make her the princess.
The sixth-grade martial soul has the potential to become a strong Nirvana realm. This is a talent that both kingdoms are competing for. The two princes even made a fight because of this, and they will compete in the Four Courts Martial Arts Competition in a month and a half. There will be a battle between high and low, and the winner will marry Lin Xue.
Even His Majesty the King attaches great importance to this moment and wants to make Lin Xue a princess. If Prince Chu wins in the end, Lin Xue will marry the Motie Kingdom as a princess in order to bring the two kingdoms closer.
Lin Xiaotian was overjoyed. This made him understand that the Lin family was really going to soar this time! No matter which prince Lin Xue married in the end, the benefits it brought to the Lin family were unimaginable!
However, at this time, an ignorant young man from a remote town actually wanted to take advantage of Lin Xue?
boom...
Invisible energy suddenly surged out of Lin Xiaotian's body, making him look extremely terrifying at this time.
"If he dares to take advantage of Lin Xue, he will be seeking death!" Lin Xiaotian snorted angrily and walked away.
As the sky turned dark, Qin Feng stopped practicing and slowly opened his eyes.
The wind whimpered outside the window. Qin Feng glanced out the window and saw chaotic clouds surging under the waning moon.
This seemed destined to be an unstable night, but for Qin Feng, it happened to be an extremely peaceful night. Until this moment, Lin Xiaotian had not seen Qin Feng again. This night was certainly peaceful for Qin Feng.
"The Lin family's efficiency seems to be slower than I thought." Qin Feng looked at the moonlight outside the window and thought to himself.
But at this moment, a white figure suddenly flashed past Qin Feng's sight. The figure was so fast that even with Qin Feng's eyesight, he could only capture a blurry afterimage.
"Who?" Qin Feng was shocked and shouted out the window.
Qin Feng's answer was a flying knife that shot towards Qin Feng. However, the flying knife was not shot at Qin Feng. Qin Feng did not avoid it. He just watched the flying knife fly past his eyes and allowed it to hit him.
On the wall behind you.
Qin Feng jumped out of the window with a slight jump, but the mysterious man in white had long disappeared.
"Strange." Qin Feng was even more confused. He could clearly feel that the mysterious man in white had no murderous intention towards him, and the flying knife he shot at him was more like a warning.
"Master, what happened?" Li Ye, who was immersed in his cultivation state, was also awakened. However, as soon as he asked Qin Feng, he discovered a flying knife inserted into the wall.
And above the flying knife, there was an extremely inconspicuous piece of paper tied. Li Ye reached out his hand in confusion, trying to pull the flying knife out of the wall.
"Don't touch that flying knife!" Qin Feng immediately became anxious when he saw this.
However, it was too late, Li Ye's finger had already touched the flying knife. In an instant, Li Ye's face turned pale and his whole body began to tremble.
Qin Feng quickly flew forward and hit Li Ye in several places, which made Li Ye's face slowly turn red.
"What a terrible cold! What a vicious intention!" Li Ye looked at the flying knife with fear in his heart.
Qin Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This cold air is extremely pure, but there is very little cold air on the flying knife. It can be seen that the mysterious man did not intend to harm anyone. He probably contaminated the flying knife when he threw it.
There was a hint of chill in him."
"The flying knife was just contaminated by a hint of coldness on his body, so it was so terrifying?" Li Ye turned pale with shock.
"This kind of cold air is beyond the control of anyone. This person's physique may be extremely special. And it is very likely that she is a woman." Qin Feng said as he pulled out the flying knife.
"How did you know it was a woman?" Li Ye was puzzled.
Qin Feng didn't speak. Although the figure in white was very fast, even Qin Feng couldn't see it clearly. But when Qin Feng opened the door and window, he smelled a vague fragrance, which was a kind of fragrance.
A spice that only women can use.
Of course, if there were men using it, Qin Feng would have nothing to say.
Qin Feng shook his head secretly and took off the note on the flying knife. There was only one word on the note. When Qin Feng saw the word, his eyes narrowed slightly, and many thoughts came to his mind in an instant. He vaguely guessed a lot
However, it is not yet certain whether things are as he thought.
"What's written on it?" Li Ye asked.
"See for yourself." Qin Feng handed the note to Li Ye.
Li Ye opened the note and saw the word "escape" written clearly on it.
"Escape? What does this mean? Could it be that Lin Xiaotian will be detrimental to us?" Li Ye was surprised.
"I don't know." Qin Feng shook his head.
"Who is the person who sent the letter? Is he helping us, or is he just being alarmist?" Li Ye was confused.
"Not sure." Qin Feng still shook his head.
Li Ye didn't notice that this time Qin Feng answered 'not sure' instead of 'don't know'.
'Don't know' means knowing nothing and not having the slightest clue. And 'uncertain' means that Qin Feng has already guessed who the person might be, but he can't be sure.
It's a pity that Li Ye was so confused at the moment that he didn't notice these details. He just quickly analyzed the situation in front of him in his mind.
"Lin Xiaotian treated me and the young master with courtesy before in front of the Lin family gate. From this point of view, Lin Xiaotian has no reason to attack us now. What's more, when the young master and I entered the Lin family, there were countless pairs of eyes staring at us.
Lin Xiaotian will definitely not let us die in the Lin family."
Thinking of this, Li Ye suddenly became more awake and said continuously: "If Lin Xiaotian wants to attack us, it will definitely be after we leave the Qin family. Young Master, otherwise we should escape now, while Lin Xiaotian doesn't pay enough attention to us.
He left the Lin family without anyone noticing."
"It's too late." Qin Feng said calmly.
As soon as Qin Feng finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Li Ye suddenly felt suffocated and his face looked extremely ugly.
Qin Feng's face was still calm, but there was a hint of worry in that calmness. There were some things that he still hadn't figured out until now.
When he opened the door lightly, he saw a whole team of menacing armored guards standing in front of the door. This posture was more like inviting someone to come, rather than arresting someone.
The leader of the guard cupped his hands to Qin Feng and said, "Mr. Qin, the head of the Lin family invites you to come to the living room for a chat."
Li Ye suppressed the shock in his heart and asked first: "The night is already so deep, can't we talk about it tomorrow?"
"I'm really sorry. The head of the family specifically told me to invite you two over." Although the guard leader said he was sorry, his tone of voice was already a little cold.
Cold sweat slowly fell from Li Ye's forehead. He was not stupid, and the attitude of the armored guard had already revealed many problems.
"Lead the way." Qin Feng said calmly. Even if the armored guards didn't come, he would not choose to escape. He had already guessed many things, and to confirm them, he had to meet Lin Xiao.
