Outside the hall, the wind was blowing loudly, but inside the living room it was eerily quiet. Lin Xiaotian sat on the main seat, his face a little solemn. Ever since he remembered the engagement that year, he couldn't sleep at night.
Because Lin Xue is too important to the Lin family now! He must find out Qin Feng's purpose, so he is so anxious to see Qin Feng.
"My dear nephew, you have come all the way, so you must have something to say. But I have been very busy recently, so I came to find you late at night. I believe you won't blame me." Lin Xiaotian said with a smile.
Qin Feng was just about to speak, but Li Ye secretly tugged at Qin Feng's clothes and said first, "The Lin family master was joking. The young master and I came here just for a visit and nothing else."
Ever since Li Ye saw the note, he had become extremely cautious. In his opinion, no matter what he said to Lin Xiaotian at this time, it might make the situation worse. And the safest and most secure method is naturally
Say nothing and ask nothing.
Lin Xiaotian frowned slightly, secretly thinking that Li Ye was cunning and cunning, and felt that Li Ye seemed to be deliberately hiding something. But the more Li Ye concealed it, the more suspicious he became.
But at this moment, Qin Feng suddenly said: "Of course I have many questions to ask."
Li Ye's expression changed drastically in an instant, while Lin Xiaotian's expression showed a smile, secretly laughing that Qin Feng was a young man after all, and young people can always lose their composure.
"What I want to ask is about the disappearance of my parents thirteen years ago." Qin Feng looked directly at Lin Xiaotian and said.
Lin Xiaotian was slightly startled. He had already conducted another investigation before. Qin Feng and Lin Xue were both students of Lingyun College, and they seemed to have a good relationship with each other. So he was almost certain that Qin Feng must have come for Lin Xue.
But Qin Feng asked about Qin Xiaochi's disappearance thirteen years ago.
"Isn't he doing it for Lin Xue?" Lin Xiaotian felt a sense of joy in his heart. If he had no choice, he would never want to kill Qin Feng, so as not to cause unnecessary problems and have any impact on Lin Xue.
"It turns out that the good nephew is here for this matter." Lin Xiaotian laughed and said, he had already thought about it, made up some reasons at will, sent Qin Feng away, and the matter was over.
Lin Xiaotian was laughing, but Qin Feng was not. "I really can't understand that, as my father's sworn brother, you turned a blind eye to this matter and never even sent a letter to the Qin family."
Qin Feng's tone was unusually cold. This was no longer a question, but a question.
"Boy, pay attention to the tone of your words. Even if my head is your father's sworn brother, he has no obligation to protect your Qin family." Butler Cao shouted immediately.
Lin Xiaotian waved his hand and signaled Butler Cao to step back, and then sighed and said, "I feel ashamed to say this, but my dear nephew, you don't know something. Although the Qin family is only a small family in Puying City, but you
My father is not an ordinary person."
Qin Feng didn't say anything. Of course he knew that Qin Xiaochi's origin was anything but ordinary. He could guess this just from the heaven-level magic weapon and the dragon-shaped jade pendant.
"Your father's cultivation level is unpredictable, but his behavior is extremely low-key. Most of the friends he associates with are only in the realm of Xuanling. Thirteen years ago, I only had the cultivation level of the eighth level of Xuanling. At that time, the Lin family was just a small family.
Family. However, the battle before your father disappeared was earth-shattering. Many strong men in the Yin-Yang Realm died in it. Some people even rumored that there were strong men in the True Martial Realm participating in that battle."
"Qin Feng, when I say this, do you understand what I mean? The intimidation of a strong man in the Zhenwu realm is enough to influence the fate of a kingdom. Not to mention the Lin family thirteen years ago, even the Lin family now has absolutely no interference.
Qualifications for that matter!" Lin Xiaotian said.
"So, you don't dare to contact the Qin family for fear of getting into trouble?" Qin Feng asked indifferently.
Lin Xiaotian coughed dryly and secretly thought that the tone of Qin Feng's words was too harsh. But at this time, he just wanted to get rid of Qin Feng as soon as possible and did not want to care too much.
"My nephew, I am doing this for your sake. Within the royal city, there are often other kingdoms, and even occasionally some big sects, or people from the empire come and go. It can be said that there is a mixture of dragons and snakes. I will not associate with your Qin family, and I will treat you
It is also a kind of protection." Lin Xiaotian said.
"Oh, then I understand." Qin Feng said lightly. There was a hint of disappointment in his heart. Although Lin Xiaotian said a lot, he didn't provide many clues. It was obviously just some excuses.
"But besides that, I want to ask one more thing." Qin Feng said again.
"My dear nephew, please speak." Lin Xiaotian was still smiling.
Qin Feng said: "Lin Xue."
Buzz...
The aura on Lin Xiaotian's body suddenly became restless, and his face became extremely ugly. The thing he least wanted to happen happened.
Butler Cao's expression suddenly turned extremely cold, and he looked at Qin Feng as if he were looking at a dead person.
The atmosphere in the living room instantly became extremely depressing. Li Yegan laughed and said, "What's wrong? We're just asking casually. If you don't want to answer, forget it."
After Li Ye said this, he pulled Qin Feng's sleeve and wanted to take Qin Feng away. At this moment, he already knew very well that Lin Xuedong must be a taboo in the entire Lin Mansion. If he got too entangled in this issue, he would just
I was afraid that Lin Xiaotian would fall out immediately.
However, Qin Feng threw away Li Ye's hand and looked at Lin Xiaotian coldly. Facing the pressure coming from the Yin-Yang Realm strongman, he was not afraid at all.
Li Ye frowned, but he couldn't figure out why Qin Feng was so impulsive this time. Did he forget the reminder of the note? Why did he insist on angering Lin Xiaotian?
But Li Ye didn't know that the reason why Qin Feng acted so tough was because of that piece of paper.
"Qin Feng! Who do you think you are! You want to marry our eldest lady? A toad is a toad. If you want to eat swan meat, you may die!" Butler Cao snorted coldly, pointed at Qin Feng and threatened.
"Marry the eldest daughter of the Lin family?" Qin Feng was slightly stunned. He was clearly asking about Lin Xue. Why did Butler Cao mention the eldest daughter of the Lin family? Could it be that Lin Xue was really Lin Xiaotian's daughter?
When Butler Cao saw Qin Feng pretending to be stupid, he immediately sneered: "Qin Feng, since you asked the question just now, why do you need to pretend to be stupid now? Aren't you here for the engagement?"
Lin Xiaotian had previously stated that he would kill Qin Feng if Qin Feng dared to catch Lin Xue's attention. Butler Cao had already hated Qin Feng to the core, so he naturally followed the trend and wanted to kill Qin Feng.
Lin Xiaotian's face became increasingly gloomy. Qin Feng came for Lin Xue, so he had to make a decision.
"Qin Feng, stop pretending to be confused. As long as you hand over the marriage certificate and give up thinking about Lin Xue, I will spare your life." Lin Xiaotian said coldly.
"Spare me?" A sneer gradually appeared on Qin Feng's face.
Although Li Ye mentioned the marriage certificate to Qin Feng once, Qin Feng didn't take it to heart at all. He only wanted to know about Lin Xue's current situation when he asked about Lin Xue.
But Lin Xiaotian was so aggressive, which made Qin Feng very unhappy. What he resented most was being threatened.
"To be honest, I didn't remember any engagement with your Lin family. Maybe if you don't mention it, the engagement will be invalidated," Qin Feng said.
"What! You didn't know?" As soon as Qin Feng said this, Lin Xiaotian almost burst out of anger. He went through all the trouble just for that marriage letter, but Qin Feng actually said that he didn't know at all.
About the marriage certificate!
Doesn't that mean that what he just did was just shooting himself in the foot?
"Since you are so kind to remind me, then of course I will marry Miss Lin as stipulated in the marriage contract." Qin Feng showed a shameless smile.
"Qin Feng, stop pretending. The marriage certificate is so important. It's your chance to cling to our Lin family and take advantage of your career. How could you not know?" Butler Cao didn't believe a word of Qin Feng's words.
Lin Xiaotian slowly calmed down, looked at Qin Feng coldly and said, "Whether you know it or not, it's no longer important. I'll give you one last chance now. Think about it carefully."
"As long as you hand over the marriage certificate, 50 million gold coins, and a complete set of treasure-level armor and weapons, I can also recommend you to become a disciple of the Fourth Academy of the Royal City, giving you a bright future.
Are the conditions feasible?" Lin Xiaotian said arrogantly. As he spoke, he took out a space ring and threw it towards Qin Feng.
"It's really a lot." Qin Feng took the ring and played with it in his hand.
"Hmph, all the assets of your Qin family combined are not half of the wealth in this ring." Lin Xiaotian's expression became even more arrogant.
"Unfortunately, I'm not interested." Qin Feng waved his hand casually, and the ring flew towards Lin Xiaotian at a faster speed, and was nailed to the floor at Lin Xiaotian's feet.
Such a scene immediately made everyone speechless in shock. The conditions promised by Lin Xiaotian were not unreasonable. More importantly, Lin Xiaotian was the head of the eight major families in the royal city. Qin Feng was so disrespectful.
